Hi everyone,
I've just got a new vacuum, and I thought I would share some photo's with you guys, it's a 1970's Hoover Senior 6525E! I got it from Andy (Andy-lux) and he game me a spare belt and a couple of bags with it, so if you are reading this Andy, thank you so much! It's a great vacuum and my favorite in my collection! Here's the picture's :) Joe

Joe, yes, I'm sure. I gave it to Andy. It was given to me by a colleague of my sister who had owned it since new. He was a HEAVY smoker, hence the yellowing on the hood.
I gave it to Andy because I never really liked the seniors that much - I always preferred the juniors - and I knew he would appreciate it more than I did | ||

Oh right. That's good, it's only had 3 previous owners, and I know that you and Andy will have looked after it. Infact, he fitted new carbon brushes before he gave it to me :)
It makes sense now, since Andy was telling me how it was yellowed by the owner who was a heavy smoker, so I thought when you said it used to be yours, I didn't think you were a heavy smoker Chris lol. | ||

Hi joe, If you remove the belt cover underneath then you should be able to see the fan - and you can see if its plastic or metal:) Hope this helps:) | ||

Thanks for letting me know! I'm really happy with it, the best Hoover I've ever used!
It is a shame now that everything gets thrown away rather than repaired. Back then a Hoover like this would have been quite a big investment, and if it did go wrong you would probably of had it repaired. Also, I recently found out my Grandma had a 1940/50's Hoover Junior! It lasted until the 1980's too! I wish she would have kept it when it did give up. | ||
