Mike you have a great variety and some really choice machines in a collection of 30 or so. they are most all usable and very important machines in the evolvement of the Kirbys and and the Eureka's. Take good care and enjoy then ! Norm |

Your collection is really nice. You have some excellent vacuums.
Does your Miele have a turbine nozzle attachned to it, or is that the S5 Orion with a battery-powered power nozzle? Your Electrolux Epic 3500SR 75th Anniversary Edition upright is a favorite vacuum of mine. You can get an after-filter kit that installs over the exhaust to give the machine micro-filtration. The Dyson DC21 Motorhead definitely will clean a carpet! |

Hi Mike
really nice collection. I managed to find a dc05 motor head ( really rare in the UK almost non existant in South Africa) I wish I could get the dc21 here , that is a trully awsome machine. Dyson SA has a deal were if you have brought back an over seas model they will give you the equivelant of $200.00 trade in off a new dyson. I do most of these deals and so get allot of UK and USA models Buythe way your 220volt dryer outlet should work fine, other wise get an inverter, they are not that expensive. I bought one to run my 110v machines cheers Gareth |

I'm totally stoked that I found another vacuum cleaner enthusiast my own age. We should share some ideas, man. I'm trying to start looking for shop-vacs to collect. |
