Managed to grab this Little Sanyo SC 580 vacuum on goodwill auctions for around $8! I thought it was a really cute looking machine and to my surprise, it is actually really nice to use! Haven't done a lot of research on it yet but it looks like similar machines were made by Toshiba and Hitachi around the same time. My only complaint with it is that it is bagless and im not the biggest fan of bagless canisters...Oh Well, Neat little machine anyway!

Sanyo vacuums of anything are pretty rare. I only know them for their cell phones back in the early millenium and their VCR's. I reply: Yeah, I used to really like Sanyo products. I always felt like they offered good value for the money. I never had or heard of a Sanyo vacuum cleaner, though. I have a Sanyo TV set that's about eight or nine years old and has never had any sort of problem (damn, I probably just jinxed it). They were also known for the Eneloop rechargeable batteries, which I think are some of the best you can buy. I believe Matsushita (aka Panasonic) acquired Sanyo in the early 2000s and used the brand as a price leader to their own comparable products for a while, then quietly phased the brand out after bringing a few flagship products, like Eneloop batteries, under the Panasonic umbrella. The Panasonic brand has since fallen on hard times and exited some formerly lucrative markets such as TVs and DVD players. |

One of the nicest microwave boxes I had was a Sanyo. The quality was superb. Had for 15 years. Kept the spiral bound hard cover cook book that was included. Sanyo made good products before being acquired by another. |

Don’t forget Sanyo’s highly-rated Transformax Stick Vac from the early 1990’s - the top-rated stick vac in Consumer Reports tests at the time. Sanyo borrowed the “lift-off” concept from Bissell and adapted it to create a compact little “lift off” stick vac that easily transformed into a mini canister vac. Lightweight, powerful, quiet and bagged for easy dirt disposal. The deluxe model featured an air-driven turbo carpet nozzle that could be turned off for bare floors, plus an onboard dusting brush and crevice tool.

Remember the Dirt Hunter? It was a disaster on sanyo part with that filter designed that doesn't do anything but get clogged and prone to overheat. Same with the junk twisters.
