Something for Christmas, The Turbopower 1000 which seemed to replace the Turbomaster as Hoover UKs TOL upright range in the 1990s. In immaculate condition and runs like a dream. The previous owner had bought it to use in her caravan, no not a static caravan but a touring one! Hence it had seen very little use! |

Callum Funny you should mention the scabbard arrangement. Paul and myself were debating it this weekend just gone. The brochure shows it how we have it in the photos, yet it fits better upside down. The scabbard crevice tool was standard on all Turbopower 2 from day dot IIRC. My Aunty Caroles TP2 800w Autosense from the first series had the long and short crevice tools on. I remember the first time I saw it and used it I was fascinated with the arrangement of the plastic clips inside the dusting brush and upholstery tool which held them onto the long crevice tool so you had a long reach. They dropped the small crevice tool on TP3 cleaners and the later TP2 cleaners when the purepowers took off as TOL cleaners. ~I rememeber the diamonds advert but when talking to other members nobody seemed to themselves so thanks for reassuring me that I didnt imagine it! Didnt it go something like - all you saw was a bag of diamonds tipped onto some scales and weighed. Diamonds scattered onto floor for a mysterious pair of stockinged legs donned with killer heels pushing the TP1000 around. Permabag was tipped into the scales which didnt come to the full amount but a second later the last piece did fall out? - It was quite a sexy Hoover advert IIRC. Perhaps aimed at the proffessional person - think it may of been an office setting or a very grey and black lounge. Will try to find it on youtube Rob |

Now here's MY question...does anyone else remember the TV ad for the Purepower range when they first came out? Or, better still, have a copy they could YouTube for me? |

Just wanted to know if you've had your mitts on the new Miele upright yet? What do you think of it? |
