As many of you know me will kbow that I love Hoovers and they are my main interest and make up the majority of my collection. Today I thought I would bring down all my Hoovers to see how many I actually had (13) and I thought I would take a photo since I had them out.
This is my current Hoover collection and will probably continue to grow. Please show me your HOOVERS. Here are mine, in date order. |

I agree, most of their uprights (at least on this side of the pond) after 1983 were not that well built, they did make a come back with the Turbopower 2 that is one of the sturdiest all plastic vacuums I have used. The Elites were not all that sturd, but acceptable. The windtunnels (at least the one I used was very creaky and groany.

Hi-lo, yes it's not bad. Filter does not clog very easily unlike lots of pleated filters. Hose is stretch and is very long Telescopic Handle can be removed and used as an extension pipe Long enough cable OK brushroll |

Wow! You waited so long, but that is one great set of HOOVERS. I'm glad you got them all. I only have one of those Convertibles. They are great.
I'm trying to organize my HOOVER products. There are around 100 non -floor care items here, and around 300 cleaners, polishers, etc. I KNOW.............. yikes. NYC Writer, I agree. The "Decade" era was the last of the best. |

That Convertible is almost identical to the one my Dad let me pick out and buy all by myself in 1977. I have two other Hoover's I don't have a picture of yet. One is a blue Concept One with power drive, and the other is a Like new Floor Mate with Spin Scrub. Haven't used it yet, but it looks interesting.

I've always loved every Convertible and Elite. Elite's have always been special to me. I think after the Elite era was when Hoover started going downhill. |
