Kindness You guys are the best. I would love to see the pics, Skip. We can talk in private about the vac. Just e-mail me. If your camera is high in pixels, you'll have to resize your pictures. Just right-click on the picture, choose resize,choose the smallest choice. This always works for me...

You are all a great bunch........ I agree with you guys about Nathan. He is very kind and helpful. But, so are most of my vacuum friends. Thanks Tommy for keeping an eye out for the GE hose and floor tool. Skip, are you interested in selling your swivel top? What condition? Do you have any...

Joe You are right, but I do wish he had used ivory bulk hose like I asked. But he did it for free, so I can't complain too much.

Finally the switch. This one's for you Toggle! Hope you enjoy it. Tim

And the floor tool that is cracked and taped

Well, it's back I got the GE back yesterday. I am so disappointed. I thought when he said fix it up, it would look like a new one. Instead, the BLUE Swiveltop has a BLACK and WHITE vinyl hose with BLACK swivel connectors and a BROWN Rainbow floor brush. Can you believe it? He even riveted the...

THE GE I never knew GE made uprights like that. What do the two white levers on either side of the machine do? Does it run? How well? Tim

Dang charlie who is that?

Nice pic, Joe Thanks for the advice. I have that exact same hose on my Super J. This is the third vinyl hose I have had since the original braided hose failed. They all break at the handle. Since they are plastic,they can't be glued and expect them to last. The canister of my machine itself is...

Welcome Charlie I really like your website. I have spent many hours reading the Lux history. You will like it here. There are many nice and knowledgeable people in here. Again, welcome. Tim

Air Way What are the price tiers of the three Air Way Vacuums?

Charlie I am in Rome GA (30165). The motor runs fine. There is a little noise when in winds down, but nothing major. I had new carbon brushes put on it about 5 years ago. Most of the work would be cosmetic. ( a new cord, repaint, cleaning the rubber bumper, repairing the flip-over floor tool...

Thanks, buys Charlie, My Super J has a powernozzle (4C) which was brown and I spray-painted it gold to match the machine. It works well. I have all of the original attachments, since it belonged to my wife's grandmother. The hose I have is a vinyl bojack hose. It's a piece of crap. The switch...

Most of you in here know that I am a fan of vintage vacuums. However, MY vintage vacuums are not suitable for everyday use. They are all in pretty bad shape. I have been cleaning my hardwoods and area rugs with an Oreck and a Miele upright. They are ok, but I am thinking I want to change to a...

Hey Tom Thanks for letting us know about the Connie. I'm envious. Was the machine quiet? How was the hose in comparison to the original? Tim

Constellation Best Buy is sold out, but here is another site that sells them in the US. Tim http://www.allergybegone.com/hoover-s3341-canister-vacuum-cleaner.html

Of course....... I would have to have a set of metal wands for a metal machine. No black plastic for me.

Finally, a simple durable-looking vacuum for not such a bad price. Does anyone know about these? http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/sr=1-15/qid=1151764360/ref=sr_1_15/601-4185856-8820107?%5Fencoding=UTF8&asin=B0009OR98I

Cleaning with bleach I use Clorox Clean-up for all of my cleaning. It is bleach with a cleaner mixed in. It works really well, and leaves a very nice, clean scent. Tim

This cleans ......... carpets so well, but it is a bit noisy. It is a later model plastic body vacuum. You can get these real cheap. I got this for $3. I cleaned it up and it's really nice. Tim
