I have a blue Hoover electric broom that I've had for a while I found at the thrift store. It's in really nice shape cosmetically, but it seems to have a few problems mechanically. It seems there is a lot of dust in the motor housing and it is very noisy. I assume these were relatively noisy but I don't know if it is normal for them to be dusty inside. I can't get the motor out very far because of the short wires. I have not really used it at all and don't have any bags for it.
Also what year is it from? It's a model S2015. A floor only machine, no handle to use as hand vac. |

Yes, both of my QuikBrooms are the model S2015. One is the later white-footed variant, while the other is the earlier blue-footed version, but my blue-footed one has the same slider switch as the later version, albeit in black instead of red.
For a while, I also had a QuikBroom Supreme, which had a floor nozzle on wheels and a permanent cloth bag and dirt cup, similar to the Regina stick vacs. I loaned it to a somewhat emotionally unstable friend of mine, who subsequently destroyed it by slamming it down on the floor in an attempt to clear a clog. The first of the ads you posted, the one from Woolco, brought back memories. I hadn't thought of Woolco in many years. They went out of business when I was a freshman in college. |
