Wonderful extended commercial. Oh man, I love this machine. My all time favorite vintage 'not a vacuum exactly' floor care device. Just something about that stylish tough plastic fuselage body wrapped around those solid metal bits and the darn thing does exactly what it promises. Nice motor sound and the sheer cleverness of a collapsed waste water bag tucked inside the clean water jug - brilliant!. Basically, it's a wet mop on wheels with a water dispensing tank, that vacuums up it's own waste water and damp drys the floor with the warm motor exhaust. Sure, today's - Hoover - modern floor washer systems with motorized scrubbing brushes probably work more efficiently but they don't have the charm & portability factor of this first (?) domestic 1960s version from Hoover you can hang on the closet wall. Of course, in less time she could have simply knelt down with a dishcloth and wiped up the milk on her way out to Church or the Bridge Club Luncheon. I have two yellow ones, one nozzle-less and the other missing the brush plate. So I converted a vacuum floor nozzle to fit that does the job. I so want a blue one some day... Dave |
