[elevatortimes]

How do u find vacuums in the trash? I mean most of those are so rare to find. At most thrift stores, those r hard to find.

[vacguy99]

[colinatlantic]

what kind is that silver one

in the front row

[paintedbird]

I use to have a "collection" of vacuumes as well. I can't remember the model but I had a real old Kurby that was given to me by our local dealer and it worked perfectly and had all the attachments and box and everything. Sadly it was "lost" during a basement clean out. I was very sad when I discovered that it was gone. I use to have a JetFlo canister as well, also some dirt devils, some old eurikas and hoovers. I must say I like Kubys the best.

[paintedbird]

@paintedbird just noticed my KIRBY typos. lol.

[general0ne]

@paintedbird my favorites are probably the kirbys too. I tend to try to collect the older vacs, though.

[paintedbird]

@general0ne I think older vacs have more character and are more interesting then a lot of the new ones.

[vacuumboy69]

@general0ne can i have one pleass :D)

[vacguy99]

are you gonna keep them all?please tell me i have not so many vacs

[stanjamv1]

o ya i hav 24 vacs =)

[general0ne]

@stanjamv1 I'm sure I have more now lol. I just have to get them all into one room and make a new video.

[lrd9999]

Some people won't life a finger to keep a vacuum running; they're usually pretty easy to fix. When I was a kid my parents actually took theirs in for service every now and then.

[general0ne]

none of them are new - they were all found in the trash :) I still have the convertibles - do you want me to post a video or do you want to buy one?

[stars1976]

if u decide to sell any of the old eurekas or convertibles i might be interested depends wat ur price would be.

[general0ne]

what do you think they're worth? I was planning on keeping one of each model and then selling / parting out the rest.

[stars1976]

I really have no clue bc i collect vacuums that look cool and old and really do not know the price. But like i said if u want to sell any of them let me know ur price and i will see if i can match it.

[general0ne]

okay. I'll probably be listing a few of them on ebay in a week or so, since I'm trying to clear out some of the extras that I have. my ebay id is general_0ne, so keep an eye out if you're interested. I'll probably be listing them at $10 or $15 each.

[stars1976]

thanks any way bc i am not able to buy off of ebay yet

[BigPython1986]

U collect them?

or do u fix them?

[general0ne]

a bit of both.

[kittiscool]

Awesome!!!! I Love the 1980's Vacuum Cleaners!!! Eureka's from the 1980's are my #1 Favorites Vacuums!! That's a lot of Vacuums!! 20 Vacuums WOW!!! I like some Hoovers and I hate Kirbys. Eureka's are my #1 favorite in Vacuums from the 1980's. It's nice that you have all Models of Vacuums!!!

[stars1976]

sweet thanks man. I just got an older eureka upright from my friend he got it in the dumpster and it is in really good shape.

[stars1976]

do you have any of the old eureka uprights left? if so can u make a video of them?

[general0ne]

yeah I still have them. I'll see what I can do.

[MoparHemiPower]

Do you still have that Singer Turbo and if so, may I PLEASE have it????? You see, I have that EXACT SAME Singer already, but mine NEEDS some Replacement Parts to Run, ALL of which, your Singer there has for me, so again, may I PLEASE have it, PLEASE, I will Pay Shipping, can do it now even, as I NEED it ASAP, THANKS A LOT Friend!!!!!!!!!!!!

[greeny45t2]

Can you get the Fantom fixed and replace it's hepa filter? Is it the Twister?

[DudeDie222]

Cool! You have an original SteamVac that has Spinscrub!

[genmac1]

lol youve only begun my friend, when you get around 200, thats when you start getting too many lol

[compactc9]

20 too many!? I have over 300...

[italobambino43]

within two years the cable broke that controlled the gearbox for the self propoltion mechanism, Eureka made a better sefl-propelled sweeper, the Dial-A-Matic was by far the strongest and most dependable one we ever had, I will find one eventually, nice sweeper collection by the way, I collect an aray of small electrical appliances to.

[general0ne]

The orange and tan vacuum (that I don't mention) is a Dial-a-Matic, I think one of the first models. The brushroll is toast unfortunately. The Concept One that I have at my parent's house is self propelled, and was working fine but the input shaft of the gearbox needs a new bushing. I have various collections - mostly antique radios/TV's, and the vacuums, but I have a variety of other things as well. Guess you could say I'm a packrat :P

[italobambino43]

I wish I had our old gold and white Hoover Dial-A-Matic, which my mother bought new in 1980, my fater and I had to assemble and maintain these vacuums, my mother was a sweeper jockey, she was hard on apppliances, she almost killed our G-E washing machine if it wasn't for us complaining about how much detergent she used. She threw out the old dial amatic and bought a Hoover self propelled with a small removable dustbuster that snapped in to the front of the sweeper, that one wore out quick-

[iamelmo137]

What is that vacuum thats on very botom in the left

[general0ne]

The silver and black one with the short handle? That's a Fantom that's missing the hepa filter. since the filter's missing, the internal cone of the canister is loose, and whatever it picks up just gets sucked into the motor. When I got it, the entire thing was clogged with enough cat hair to make a complete cat. The motor housing is also partially melted due to the motor overheating...

[adb140275]

i have about 50

[fgbags]

Yeah, lookin forward to the Decade 80 as well. Have a charcoal colored Decade 800 w/attachments. Great vac.

[smileyhq]

The grey Electrolux is actually a Silverado

[general0ne]

Okay. Thanks! I know it's a different model number than the Super J, but the gray one has lost it's sticker on the top. Is there any real difference between the two, other than I'd say the Silverado is newer?

[smileyhq]

Yes the super J is from the mid 70's and the silverado is from the mid 80's The Siverado Deluxe came with the first L shaped power nozzle

[lawnkidd]

love the singer vac

[tjmilliner1011]

I would like to see a video of the Hoover Decade 80 in action.

[general0ne]

Working on it. I have it apart right now - oiled the motor and I need to get a bag and lights for it.

[tjmilliner1011]

Cool!

[brettsomers]

The Electrolux (Thirty) and the Health-Mor are your oldest?

[general0ne]

Yep.  The Kirby 514 come in as a close third since it's from '54 (I have the sales invoice). The convertible 704 comes in fourth.

[AOO08DOYOUHEAR]

Haha, 24 vacuums. Thats alot.
