I've seen a couple of these Hoover Dusters over the years. I've always wanted one but none have come my way ... yet! 🙂

You know when I frequented the vault I had access to many of these machines. I do have 4 or 5 somewhere. The vault had lots ad lots of oops lumpas too. That's a crazy ride if you ever visit the chocolate factory.
Oh.. wait that's someone else's imagination fabrication. My bad carry on.

Les, you're a riot.

I had the chance to use one and I remember being so unimpressed with the power. It actually had slightly less than a model 700 due to the small bag holding back the airflow somewhat.

Now that I have a model 5 and a model 11 Electrolux, which as I understand it is the reason Hoover came out with their 'duster' - None of them had any real power until the model 12 Electrolux came out with the 350 watt motor. Those early Electrolux and the Hoover Duster were better than nothing - I guess. They did sell enough to keep improving them. While Hoover gave up altogether in the 1930's.

I meant to say oompa loompa.
Hey there's always locked places that have keys. People know people who have keys. I'm just saying you never know.

Who cares what’s in the cards...

It’s all about what keys you have in your hand.

You know people who lived behind the locked vaults why would you go on a tour of the chocolate factory with no golden ticket.
It makes you wonder but not me I know personally the vault bearers and the oompa loompas. It's a long story basically I have connections.
Hmm I wonder what is in the vault?

Which vault?

ultralux88's profile picture
There are simply so many, I’ve by no means seen them all, but once I gain some curiosity I tend to have little trouble finding out what’s inside.

I too am a friend of the Oompa Loompas, and I can tell you, the biggest secret is: Mr Wonka has no secrets.
