The "bug" that bit me I found a 1916 Eureka upright in the attic of a duplex The owner gave it to me. I cleaned it, rewired it, and polished it up. Since then I've been hooked on "Old Tech". | ||

Fantom at Ames
I remember getting my first vacuum, a Bissell Scooby Doo Stick Vac (BTW, I'm looking for one and will pay $30 for a complete set). Then I remember getting a blue Bissel, the one with the bag and 10 amps on it (Looking for that too). Then I remember the vacuum that changed my life, the Fantom Fury. I remember getting it and was instantly obsessed with it. Then I also remember getting belts for it at Ames. They also had all the models there too, I loved to look at the "Fantom Aisle" and being in aww.

Westinghouse Canister.... Was my parents, loved the color and the sound. I remember how I thought it as kind of hard to fit the bag...like the collar membrane was too tight. Was replaced by a red Kirby Classic. I ended up with both. I never took to the Kirby, but the Westie fascinated me.

Lars,
I just gave one of those Bissell uprights to my wife's cousin for a fundraiser rummage sale yesterday that wont be held until next month. No headlight and had a setting on the front for floor tools? Or maybe it was Singer? Now I can't remember. I can get it back and give her something else if you are interested in that. My first memory is watching my Mom use her gold 1970s Eureka power team with the woodgrain power nozzle and since I was so fascinated with that she bought me for my first Christmas in 1986 a toy baby blue Eureka ESP battery operated upright that made sounds and the bag inflated. I still have it today and it still works. | ||
