I remember when those first came out. I was in preschool at the First United Methodist church downtown (big church, multiple levels). One of the teachers told me the reason the church bought those was because the sand from the sandboxes would ruin the vacuums. And these had a hose on board.
Anyway these were probably a big deal at the time, like the Regina housekeepers. |

I bought a used Dirt Devil swivel glide bagless Monday, it's a lot heavier than the bagged versions. I actually like the swivel casters. I also fixed the handle realease problem by drilling a small hole next to the motor mount and ran wire thru the hole to secure it. Now the handle stays up.
My grandmother bought me the broom vac when I little. Nice lineup! |
