Another One Bites The Dust...


Our Self Propelled Hoover Windtunnel was laid to rest last weekend. It was a good little vacuum with a lot of spirit. It was a hard worker who loved to dig deep and pull up that dirt! (though the red marks on all the base boards will not be missed!)

Sadly, it's on/off mechanism has been shot for months, and early friday morning it's suction gave up. In the non-licensed emergency rescue efforts, were Heather & Cody. They desperately spent hours trying to revive the sturdy little vacuum, but alas, the last of it's belts broke and that was all she wrote!

Hoover was laid to rest at a neighbors yard sale with a couple of it's brand new bags, in hopes of earning their teenage sons choir costs & someone who wanted to repair further to take pity on poor Hoover.

Fickle as Heather and Cody are, they needed a replacement as soon as possible to finish their project of re-organizing the Home School room, so Hoover was replaced within hours.


Eureka! is right! This baby is just what the Dr. Ordered!

All contained on-board tools, telescoping wands built in for ease of never having to bend down to use attachments again!

The Photo says it all!

Push button cord rewind that ALL the children in the home quarrel over who gets to do it next!

Extending handle to meet the various height requirements of the household.

Serious HEPA filters for the allergies that prevail...

And best of all... a removable self contained canister where the dirt collects, & is taken outside & dumped after each use! No more puffing dirt bags as we go!

We are sad to have lost such a hardworking member of the household... but feel deeply grateful for the times we have shared. We look forward to the new model fitting in nicely... and especially 30% off suggested retail price! *GRIN*
