Hi there guys
So as you might know I am obsessed by numatic vacuums (hence my username) and I would really like to talk about them. I currently have 11 in my collection (I have a very small collection) which date form 1988 all the way to 2014. Please share your photos of your numatics! |

To actually SEE one in person, No one around here carries them, I think its the one new vacuum I might like. |

Cool collection (particularly the Nuvac). I like that stand you've got them on, is it from Numatic themselves? |

These are the first ever personified vacuums or appliances I have ever seen. Unless you count Sears former past "Lady Kenmore" name. |

Vacerator, there's a whole "family" of them. Made in England by Numatic.
The story goes that the creative force behind Numatic, which originally started as a commercial company, saw the role of a cleaner as quite a lonely job and added the face to personify the equipment. The company have since branched out into the domestic market. I can't quite begin to explain how popular they are. It's rare to go into a shop, office, school, bank, hotel or pub/bar and not find a Numatic of some sort. |
