I think many older machines actually work better than newer ones-too many clean air uprights are hampered by hoses,and complicated airpaths.-so you need that 10-12A motor to do the job a 3-5A one USED to do! |

Don't you just love it when your "dinosaur" of a machine can beat the pants off the new machines out there? Especially those that have been bragged up on all those late night infomercials. |

I have an old hoover junior vac that I am using at moment. I would not swap it for any modern vac, even had a Miele upright vac and was not impressed, here is a pic of her. Paul |

Super-sweeper: no cats were harmed during the making of this post, LOL! I certainly like the feel of this vacuum over the family Kenmore. |
