 Don't worry about whatever dirty laundry people want to hang on the line, just report the comment to the moderator and have it removed for being off topic or harassment. If he has a problem with whoever this person is he should say it to them himself and not speak through others. " very little of what he already has is restored or functional" - as my own reply to that statement - who here doesn't have a large room of vacuum projects? Literally everyone does. Doesn't mean they are disrespectful or uncaring. I have saved vacuums from house teardowns that are sitting in my garage for years, where they are safe and in no danger of being in a landfill, so that much already is a win in my book. Hans I am sure the vacuums you gifted will be well appreciated and well loved, and I wouldn't worry. | ||

Hans, I am sorry for you that Will Hemb felt the need to make such a mean spirited comment. Just remember, you are doing the right thing for YOU - and that's all that matters. Just make sure you save the machines that mean the most to you, and of course that you enjoy using.
I seriously do hope you don't leave Vacuumland again. I consider you a friend after talking to you on the phone and through Facebook, and you're a awesome guy. All of us here at Vacuumland are better for having your insights, wisdom and knowledge. Just report any nasty comments, and block the person's posts and move on is the best thing to do when someone gets under your skin here. | ||

Will Hemb!
You have a TON of nerve for making such a nasty, mean spirited remark towards Hans and his friend Chris! Last time I checked, it's NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS who Hans decides to give his vacuums to, and how that person will care for them! Hans is a mature, independent adult male, capable of making his own decisions and using sound judgment to decide who will be worthy and take good care of the machines he gives away.
Butt out and mind your own business! | ||

Chris would be there for you in a heartbeat if you needed him. He’s one of those kinds of friends. Why not see your collection go to someone who actually cares about you? And you did. It’s really that simple. Oh, and congratulations on downsizing. You have been offering those machines to your friends for years. I am both thankful and grateful to have a number of them in my collection. Including probably the rarest machine of all, the very first Kenmore with a power nozzle. You are a very well loved man by your real friends.

Hans,
I can only speak for myself, but I was very glad to see you had decided to return to Vacuumland. You've always made positive and beneficial contributions to the conversations here. I hope you won't let one malcontented person, who is likely more unhappy with himself than anything else, ruin the experience for you. You are wise to downsize as you see fit. After all, it's your stuff! I wish my dad had chosen to do that with his collections (antique toys, antique cars, art glass, etc.) instead of just burdening the family with it after his passing. Then again, he was just following an example set by his own parents and grandparents. | ||
