If

it is on something other than a vac. then I would say maybe a washer.

Why the suspense? Hoover was known to make more than a rug sucker. Or washer/ring dryer.

 

[Brent-Aucoin]

Electric Can Opener?

[gyrafoam]

Rug sucker------

LMAO!

Now, I can't say I ever remember seeing one of their little apartment sized washers or dryers in pank.

Some sort of electric cooking appliance perhaps?

 

[petek]

Hmmmm.. hair dryer

 

[hoover1060]

my guess

in that color and with that medallion is its a small kitchen appliance, perhaps a blender or maybe a can opener.
my gut says blender...

One other possibility is a hair dryer.
Blender is my final answer

Oh I'm so bad

Nope, its my new 60's Hoover Floor-a-Matic! I Love this little machine! I recently got this from Fred and its a wonderful new toy. Our floors haven't been this clean in ages. What I like the most about it is once you scrub the floor, it slurps back up the dirty water and stores it in the discard section of the container so the floor dries almost immediately. No keeping everyone and the dog out of the kitchen for the next half hour while you wait for the floors to dry! I'm almost embarrassed about how dirty the return water was, I had no idea the floors were that bad lol.

Yay, thanks Fred, love it!

Yay for Clean Floors

Here I am scrubbing the entryway this evening, and boy did it need it, lol!

 

[Unimatic1140]

love the ad for this little Hoover!

 

[hoover1060]

[Unimatic1140]

{{{{SMACK}}}

I think I'm in trouble lol.

Now Robert dear...

Its all in good fun.

Enjoy the F-A-M, they are wonderful on bare floors!

Hello Bro

Wondering if you can put a solution of Murphy's Oil Soap in the tank to do the hardwood floor adjacent to the linoleum? --after thorouhly rinsing the brushes of the harsher lino detergent, of course. I'd give some hen's teeth for one of those because my house is full of floors.

 

[Brent-Aucoin]

Wow!
That is way cool!
And it works that well.
I don't remember ever seeing these!
I said Can Opener because I have a Hoover can opener (somewhere) that has a section of the label that is this color.
Very nice machine you have there!
Brent

Brent,

the F-A-M is the best bare floor cleaner I have ever used. It's not hard on the floors, and as Robert said, it picks up the dirty water so thoroughly that the floor is ready to walk on immediately.

It also uses a minimum of detergent(1-2 tablespoons per tank of water)

I use mine regularly. Its way better than any of the domestic floor machines on the market today!

 

[oldhouseman]

Not a Rug Sucker!!!

Wow, what a great machine. Does anyone make one of these nowadays? I could really use one on my wood floors. I am restoring an really old house and the floors need alot of deep cleaning! This looks like a great machine. Nice home you have there by the way.

 

[Unimatic1140]

Its all in good fun.
Yay, I know Jeff, just being silly

So I really had no idea these were so good for wood floors. Do I use the regular brushes for the wood floors and what kind of detergent should I use????

 

[chestermikeuk]

Wow

Nice one Robert, lovely Hoover machine...I bet those floors dont know whats hit them between the new polisher and the connie!!!

How does this work?? does it have 2 disc brushes or a roller??pics please of the tanks & underside...fascinating.

And how does Gladys interact with this beauty??, enjoy, Mike
