There were a lot of good canisters back then. I'd say Electrolux's and Compact's were the more powerful machines. |

I gotta say Filter Queen. I'm not a PN person, and you can't beat them for straight suction. |

I agree with all the above posts regarding Electrolux's--You can't Beat 'Em! Tri-Stars also are great vacs as well. Changing the bags in an Electrolux has to be the most simple and easiest of all the vacuums. |

We all must keep in mind, just because they might be our favorite, doesn't mean they are the best There are a lot of good suggestions in this thread, I'm sure there are plenty more that will get posted later. |

My vote goes to Electrolux as well. At least the older ones. They were made from quality materials and did just what they were designed to do!! Clean!! Terry |

Oh yes-another GREAT canister vacuum-the Royal metal Powerteam vacuums-the Royal canisters made today are asick joke.TTI is so stupid for discinuing the Powerteam metal vacuums.the bags on these will fill quickly if you use the powernozzle a lot. |

Like the Eureka Roto series as well Brian,and my Royal Power tank will suck the paint off the wall untill the bag is just under half full, but for some reason the Kenmores of yester year are still at the top of my fav. Mabe because it was my childhood vac, then again so was the Lux model L. Mabe because of the thousands of trips to Sears where I could play,Uh i mean try them out, then again I played with lots of Hoovers and Eureka's at ann&hope. Who knows but canisters are my favorie type also. Kenny |

I simply cannot think of another brand of canister/tank vacuum. Nope, can't think of one. All the brands that have been mentioned are pretty good. Yes indeed. Creviversal |
