I've recently been deluged with vacuum deals.  I'm very grateful for that, too.

  First,  I was working at my parish Summer Festival... in the kitchen,  but,  for 2 weeks before,  I helped sort items for the giant flea market.

  I got a HOOVER carpet sweeper,  a stick vac w/ onboard tools, and a green upright (barely used) That vac SHOULD go in Contemporary,  but,  I didn't want to make 2 threads.  The cost for this.......$8.00 total!!

 

 

   Then,  yesterday in Lansdale, I got another Hoover spin sweeper (outdoor cleaner), $10.00

  I've also got 2 unopened packs of Riccar filter bags... made in USA.

 Also, placed into my posession.... is a "Eureka"(YIKES) upright.

   Of course,  I have no need or want for that.  I received it to offer to someone who really would like it. I can throw in a pack of gloves free of charge, if need be.

  Pics will follow before the weekend is over.

 John

Congratulations. I'm sure the Eureka will behave while visiting. No need for rubber gloves - unless it's one of the more recent ones that is bagless.

I'm sure somebody will appreciate this.  I gave it a little rub,  but there are a few deep scratches on the hood.

Nice finds. I never knew Hoover had an outdoor sweeper. The stick vac is interesting, I remember seeing those a lot back in the 90s and still see them in thrift stores even now.
The Tempo/Runabout is an interesting color, I've never seen a green one.

What about that yellow tub vac, is that a Shop Vac brand?

It's actually a HOOVER

gottahaveahoove's profile picture

Another company made it for them and badged it HOOVER.  It weighs almost nothing.

I am not only fascinated by the HOOVER vacuums you got but also by that sweeper!!

 

When was that manufactured do you know?  It is very interesting indeed.

Jamie,

gottahaveahoove's profile picture

they made the g reen one and a black one.  With tax,  they were a little over $100.00.  You could buy them new just a few years ago.....90s....

  They are great.  I've gotten stares from passersby while I've used it.  But,  it's NOT the first time I've gotten stares.

  I have one NIB,  one barely used.  In fact,  most of them have hardly been used.

  I like them.

 John
