Hi everyone. I've been out of the collecting game for awhile, primarily due to lack of room and funds, so forgive me if this topic has been covered already.
Out of curiosity, I checked to see what see what a new Hoover Guardsman would cost. To my surprise, I could not find the bagged version on Hoover's website, and many sites are showing it as out of stock. There are a few on eBay that are selling for nearly $200, which I know is inflated. It looks like Home Depot has some though. Perhaps I am making too much of this, but, is there any chance the Guardsman is being phased out? I might have to order one if the last of the Convertibles is coming to an end. | ||

Exactly Derek
They all bash TTi just like other things while failing to understand the TTi owners are a European family that cares about the companies they purchase . They have always wanted to build vacuums in the US again and Oreck was an opportunity they went after and now many Hoovers Royals along with Oreck will be once again made in the United States .
One day soon they will become the premier American vacuum cleaner manufacturer they are not done purchasing vacuum cleaner company's this is the beginning of vacuum cleaner greatness right here in the USA 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 I own a new Oreck Elevate Conquer that a great friend sent me and it's an amazing Oreck cleans really well . Built to awesome standards and looks very futuristic Oreck finally looks brand new as a vacuum that belongs in 2016 and beyond . Dan | ||

Nothing has been worse than the past 8 years slowest growth in history now things are and will finally be better . Millions left the job market in fact last jobs numbers only created 9,000 full time jobs and
178 ,000 part time mostly seasonal jobs . Ford is the best American car company PERIOD . Many new and exciting things will come out of the Hoover Oreck Royal factory right here in the United States of America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Hoover did go back to previous wind tunnel motor that one was garbage . Dan | ||

Hopefully our New President Will Bring Vacs Back
Hopefully the new president will convince the larger companies like TTI to make their products here, and here only. Its not easy to get a special belt for something from China. it takes like a month for shipping. I want vacs back in good old America. A good amount of small vac companies were in Chicago, A lot of places in Ohio, and many other places. There mostly gone. Lets hope there brought back. it'd be cool if vacs were made here again.

I see belts, etc. all over for inexpensive Hoovers, Dirt Devils, and Oreck's. Sharks also. Most people don't repair a $100 t $200 vacuum. They toss it in the trash after a couple of years and buy another. | ||

No, Panasonic has new models coming out. The Kentucky plant will remain for now. The Hoover Tempo I recall was a small canister similar to the Eureka Mighty Mite. | ||

Don't believe all you read here. Also don't hold your breath. Things don't have to say where they are assembled anymore. Remember this, it's always about the lowest cost to bring things to market. Always! | ||

I listen, like when you said "Europeans who live in America". We all want it all our way now don't we? Well all one way, or only your way isn't the only way either. | ||

TTI floorcare the owners of Hoover, Dirt Devil, and Oreck is a Hong Kong company. otherwise, those "European Americans" were the ones who outsourced to begin with after the aquisition of Hoover. half nice day. if half the day is nice, it's a good day these days. | ||

True.
If one goes onto the TTI website, it will tell you that "TTI, an Hong Kong Conglomerate....."
They own all of the original patents, designs, etc. I'm not about to 'get into' anything in here. We all know, or should, by now, what its what, whom is whom, and where is where. Not getting into the N Canton Ohios mess, I stood in ALL of the HOOVER buildings...both the original ones AND TTI HEADQUARTERS. I've seen everything except a few rooms in Glenwillow.The only place I've not visited is China. All we're unsure of is what is happening next. This post was last edited 12/12/2016 at 09:40 | ||

Does it mean anything
To some of you that AMERICANS have jobs and that this wonderful brand is once again building vacuums in the United States again ???
So sad that some of you only care about is where the company owners are located instead of being glad Americans have jobs . I believe that is what's important and I applaud Hoover for that and many other companies that will also be staying in the United States or will be bringing companies back here to hire more American workers .

You are so welcome .
I have loved this brand as a child ,my family have owned many Hoovers throughout the years and it's how I got started in learning how to repair a vacuum . The first one was when my neighbor threw her convertible out I snatched it up and found all it needed was a switch . I then sold it back to her for $25.00 at the age of 5 years old . That's when my love of vacuums and money began . I trashed picked so many and sold them to buy NIB vacuums I desired hence my collection which contain 99% brand new Hoover Convertibles , Dial a matics , Concepts, Elites, etc. I am glad to bring this great news and I am thrilled to be able to own American made Hoovers once again .

Thank you for the kind words .
As a collector I am glad I self taught myself to repair vacuum cleaners , my passion which I love . I couldn't picture myself as a collector and not knowing how to repair and upkeep my amazing collection. I am very excited to once again be able to own a Hoover and Royal vacuum made right here in the United States of America built by hard working Americans . Dan 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 | ||
