Mission: Impossible
I recently acquired the first season of Mission: Impossible on DVD and the epsiode "A Spool There Was" opens with a hotel maid, who turns out to be Dan Briggs' (forerunner of Jim Phelps) contact, vacuuming a corridor with a '50s vintage Hoover. I tried to take screen shots but the computer wouldn't let me. They just came out as gray squares. If you can get your hands on the DVDs, it's disc 3, episode 1

On my Mac, I paused the DVD at the appropriate moment and used the screen capture function (cmd + option + 3) to capture the screen image. The entire screen was captured except the interior of the DVD Player window, which was grayed out.

Who doesn’t “love Lucy” and the handy dandy vacuum cleaner, which was really a Westinghouse. I love mine.

I had accumulated a list of TV "vacuum cleaner sightings" but I can't find it. Off the top of my head--
Premier tank on Dennis the Menace. It was Mrs. Wilson's. Mr. Wilson was using it to look for a rare postage stamp.
G.E. Roll-Easy on Dennis the Menace. Dennis took the machine outside to vacuum up leaves.
G.E. Roll-Easy on I Dream of Jeannie. Major Nelson sucked Jeannie up into the Roll Easy. I don't remember why.
Kirby early 500-series on Petticoat Junction. A house with wacky wiring went haywire. When one of the girls flicked a wall switch the Kirby went rolling across the floor. (It had the floor polisher nozzle on it.)
Modern Hygiene tank on Hazel. Also, another episode where a custom-made prop vacuum cleaner was used.
These are the ones that come right to mind; I'm sure I'll think of more.

Of course ... Westinghouse tank on I Love Lucy!
On a later episode she's using a Hoover 2 upright (don't remember the model) with a lot of business of using the attachments. Product Placement much?! | ||

Paul,
Uncle Charley also used the Lux XXX, in fact it was the ONLY vacuum I remember seeing on My Three Sons. Sometimes you would also see one of the boys carrying it upstairs or downstairs. I think the only member of that family who DIDN'T do anything with the Lux was the Dad, Steve Douglas, played by Fred MacMurray.

Thanks, Jeff. I've seen the B & W episodes more recently than the colored ones on TV. Such consistency in prop's suggests to me a detailed and organized manager; and maybe the fact that MTS didn't share its prop's with other shows. | ||

Huh—it's the same scene, so they must have done it in different takes. Shirley Booth likely asked to use the lighter Model E for easier carrying. Seemingly, the Johnsons had no cleaner of their own. | ||

Forensic files 
I was watching an episode of forensic files and a lady was suspected of murder. Investigators confiscated her vacuum and a pair of pants. I believe the vacuum was a bag less dirt devil MVP. They found fibers on the vacuum cleaners brush roll. I put the photo of what I thought was the vacuum In the episode.
