Hi All, Today I picked up the last of Australia's first Turbopower range. These three models made all made in Australia hit the market in 1985. Note how Hoover Australia keep on using the Convertible and Lark names on these machines. The Convertible Deluxe U2320

The Turbopower.. Was introduced in the UK in 1983- they were exported briefly to the US as the Sovereign. Early models are pretty thin on the ground now and starting to be collectable. Seamus | ||

Motors.... They basically have the same design motor as the Turbomaster/Innovation, but less powerful and with a smaller bellows connection. Oddly tho they are actually slightly louder! Seamus | ||

Hey Tom, I know what you mean about the Breeze looking a bit of a mess, but it was Hoover's top selling upright in the 90's along with the standard non tool model. Glad you like the hoove sign to, it's not thier all the time just for the photo shots. He He !!!! And here's a pic of the UK bagless Turbopower. It's crap you turn it on and it sprays dust everywhere. Mark

The Breeze.. Hey Mark Thats defiantly one by Hoover Australia- we didnt have anything like it over here :(. The Freedom Turbopower wasnt one of Hoover UKs greatest ideas to be polite!. There used to be a mod kit in the same colour to convert them to a standard model lol!! Seamus | ||
