I couldn't pass it up on Ebay. I just love these! My grandmother and mother both had one. Enjoy the pics! The lady looks pleased as punch to be using her new Regina!

Did the pleased lady user use her Regina to pick up nuts and bolts with the hose as shown in the old TV add? |

A few years ago I had two of them and combined parts that weren't broken to make one decent one, and it worked ok for what it was, groomed our thick carpet great, but was super easy to push and did great on flat carpet, so I took it to our church where I was the custodian- it did awesome until I left it over a weekend when there was an event at the church... Went back on Monday and the handle was snapped clean off. Nobody ever admitted to it and I think I threw it away in frustration after that. Don't think I'd want another one but it was fun while it lasted. I've heard they are extremely fragile machines.

Everyone here had these, I always like them for what they were. It's more nostalgic for me and they look cool. I don't care for their cleaning performance all that well but I have probably 15 different Housekeepers in my collection including this model. I'm wanting to say mine is dated 1991 but I want to know what did this plus debut and was this the very first plus model?
