For me, the two choices (after much agonizing!) would be the 1954 Electrolux Model E for sentimental reasons, and the Kirby 561 because I think it's the most beautiful Kirby of them all. |

That (first pic) Model E is GORGEOUS! I am guessing they are both yours? Awesome. RB |

But, after much thought I'd have to say it would be two of my British vacs -- my Electrolux Z612E Upright and my Electrolux Z2570 Ingenio Canister! Both are quiet, powerful, durable, and easy-to-use.
Now, if we could change the number to FOUR, then I'd add into the mix my Hoover Convertible Deluxe 1070 and my Eureka 2092A Golden Vanguard! |

Hmm, well, I would keep my Kirby G4 80th Anniversary Edition, and one of my Kenmore 5055 canisters back from the 1980's with the same Ametek motors that Tristar & Filter Queen used, as it holds its suction longer than my Tristar. And the Kenmore Power-Mates also have a much better PN than Tristar.
Since these are 'vintage' and get the most use in my collection, they get my vote. Rob |

I would have to pick Upright: Kirby Classic III Canister: Electrolux G Hand Vac: Hmm, hard decision. Either Kirby Vacuette or Royal Handvac. |

It would be the DS80 for the sake of me as a little kid loving the brave little toaster and loving Kirby from then on. God bless you all.... -Jayson |

Definitely my model 63 and my Miele Platinum canister... I've since gotten a 236 powernozzle for the Miele. (Not sure why the color looks so off in that picture of the 63?) |
