I should also include "stores" with "companies", which most likely receive the greater benefit if any. | ||

If you have steam cleaner shampoo do NOT use it with the B8, the shampoo for the B8 as well as Kirbys creats a foam that dries and encapsulates the dirt so you can vacuum it up.
Steam cleaner shampoo is made for extraction, it gets sucked up into a recovery tank while wet along with the dirt. And yes we have had people use their Kirbys with extraction shampoo then try to suck up the water into their Kirby. (NOT a pretty sight) Then again I've seen some units that you wonder did they use shampoo or real poo? | ||

Something like 18 train car loads were dumped in the ocean off of Conn. in the 1960s as a newspaper read. There are that many vacuums going to the dump and not traded in as many collectors can verify. Don't be mad at a manufacturer for doing what Electrolux did. | ||

The picture shown of Electrolux is just like an earlier picture that was done by Hoover back in about 1949 that was shown to me by my Dad and a Hoover repairman. This is when Hoover sold Door to Door. | ||

What if those ocean dumpted vacs are in the DEEP area of the ocean-then they could be THOUSANDS of feet down vacuuming Davy Jones Locker!You would need the deep dive submersable sub to get to them!And after those years on the bottom of the salty sea-probably corroded away. | ||
