Yes, Speedqueen.... I love Gary at VM! I had had a standing account for years. Actually, it doesn't need an Idler, that is one of the many pluses that make this unit worth it.

Hello, So most of you might remember that a member on here found an Admiral Playmate record player that he had originally found for him self, but then decided it should be re-homed. Well, that had happened.... That member was kind enough to send it to me, and it is now awaiting restoration...

Robert.... What model is your Guardsman?? There are two variation that are similar.

The other thing the industry doesnt tell you about a bagless ...is, that most bagless, and meaning most of them especially sold at the big box stores, not only have a Hepa filter that needs cleaned, but a new filter is recommended every 6 months. Generally those filters range from $20..to as...

Yes, all my portables do. Sadly those filters are NLA, and have been for some time. I might have a used but fairly clean one if you are interested, let me do some checking and confirm that.

I have the.... Gold portable too, it was called Autumn Gold. It was one step below the Marine blue model, because it didn't have a cord reel.

Hey Barry.... That is the same Hoover Portable that my Mother grew up with, and that I had for a few years when I was a small kid. I now have another one thank goodness. It dates from 1969, 1970, some where around that. The official Hoover color is Marine Blue (although it fades to green...

Thank you to RP2813.... I thought I would let everyone know that the poor little Admiral is going to be living with me and added to my small record player collection, and will be given the cleanup and repair she deserves. I cant wait! Thanks again to RP2813, that little dear will have a...

ablsoluty I am serious! I would love to have another one! Drop me an email for details.

Bud.... Your Admiral playmate is from around 1963, tube products like this were pretty much obsolete by 1965. I can I tell you right now, that the amp will need a FULL restoration to use and safety, which can be done, it is not impossible. I will also likely need a new cartridge, That cartridge...

OMG!!! I LOVE IT!!! Of coarse I love tacky retro like that. Its kinda my calling card..lol.

Hey Preston.... I live in Wichita, Where are you from in Kansas? $50 is a really good price for that.

Hey there, So, since I have bought my house, and have a nice large kitchen. I have been looking into getting a much more deluxe stove. I have had my Leonard (American Motors/Kelvinator) for the last 6 years. I have not had any trouble with it, but it is the basic bottom of the line model. Only...

atleast that is the standard adaptor.... when I got my 1963 GE Mobile Maid, I had to jump through hoops to get the right adapter. It takes a really odd skinny one.

Very nice! That one dates to the early 70s, like 1972, 1973.

Oh, Well Allen, then your problem is a pretty easy fix.. This is what has happened. That cord reel is set up so a rubber break pad sits snug against the edge of the cord reel. In the 30 plus years the cord has been pulled out for use and retracted, the rubber pad had deteriorated. Thus not...

I have a Cord reel I could part with. Your Hoover Celebrity in Shadow and Mist Grey is the rare Electronic model from about 1983. The ONLY canister to have a dual speed power head EVER! These are very powerful canisters. I love using mine. You will need to be careful finding wands. All...

If I may inerject here.... I vote for Whirlpool. I have had my Custom "70", from the early 1970s now for 4 years, and it has been a great dishwasher! Gets everything spanking clean, and has not given me any problems. I also have a top loading 1963 GE Mobile Maid. That is also a very good...

Since.... There was already the space where a new dishwasher was. Cutting a hole and such has already been done, so size would be the only question. There is even an outlet under the sink so I can keep the existing cord on it. Thanks for your help!=)

Hello. As some of you know I have a early 70's Whirlpool portable dishwasher that is my regular machine that I use. I am very pleased with it, and it does such a good job. I don't mind it being a portable, but since I have bought my house and my residency here is permanent. I have considered...
