 ~ I was watching "Leave it to Beaver" today and saw June Cleaver using a vacuum cleaner. All I saw at first was a striped cloth hose and dusting brush as she was vacuuming the window seat. Then the camera pulled out and I briefly saw a Compact vacuum cleaner. It was just a glimpse, too fleeting to identify which model it was. It looked like one of the earlier, more rounded-off ones. However, the episode was copyrighted 1958.
The last time I saw a vacuum cleaner on that show was her using a Hoover Convertible. | ||

Ok ok,
occasionally I clean that stuff too. My house has cob webs like you wouldn't believe. I can walk into a room that looks like it wasn't touched in a month. Deep clean it and 3 days later looks like it wasn't touched. When we had the Ragdoll LONG haired cat it was worse as the cat hair would collect in the cobwebs lol. He crossed the rainbow bridge last month and we started shaving the Pugs and what a difference!!! | ||

"I Dream of Jeannie" Dial-A-Matic
It could very well be that it WAS the same cleaner as used on "Bewitched." Although I'm pretty sure its last appearance was when the Blue Djinn pulled it up out of the lake and threw it. Whatever the case may be, Hoover didn't want their name showing as it had an aluminum strip going across the Hoover letters. That was a model 1100. I'm pretty sure soon thereafter it was replaced by an 1118. I also recall seeing a coffee can Hoover on an episode of "I Dream of Jeannie."
On a side note. I wonder if the powerdrive Hoover Dial-A-Matic U6039-030 used in "Family Matters" was the same one seen in "Roseanne?" That one too had the Hoover name deleted. | ||

~ Most likely, the production company covered the name because the Hoover company declined to pay a fee for "product placement." CLICK HERE TO GO TO electrolux137's LINK | ||

I agree John! I vacuum the mattress everytime I change the sheets, and yes, I dust the door jambs and the crown mouldings! | ||
