Hitachi Powerhouse CV-780DC The Vintage Appliance Emporium 2024-01-01 | Here's an unusual upright vacuum cleaner from the mid-1990s.I've had this in my dining room for about three months and never got around to unboxing it.

If anyone knows why this is an exclusive, please do let me know in the comments.Hope you enjoy the video. Don't forget to comment like and subscribe!AFTER SOME RESEARCH:So it seems that Argos were still selling the CV-770xx models in 1996 and then went to the CV-975xx in 1999, which make me assume that the CV-780xx machines were more likely on sale between 1997 and 1998. Can anyone confirm this for us?

Unboxing / First Look - 1996 Hoover Turbopower 2 U2090 Upright Vacuum Cleaner The Vintage Appliance Emporium 2023-12-05 | I know now that it's a U2090 - the ratings sticker was SO scuffed that it was almost impossible to read. But after a bit of Googling I finally identified the model number. So help me out guys: Hoover definitely made variations of this machine in yellow, blue and red. BUT did they make a green one or am I making that up?This is the second machine that I bought from my friend Richie. I've been looking for one at a reasonable price for YEARS so when this came up I had to buy it. But was it a good investment? Watch and find out!Don't forget to comment like and subscribe :)UPDATE: Oh fudge me sideways... After doing some more research on the U2090 it now appears that there were TWO versions of this cleaner: Early and Late. The one we see here is Early. The later machine had updated graphics and a black knob oooh-er missus! And there WAS a green version (1000 watts) that ran alongside this machine. Hoover, again, doing their best to ruin any chance of a collector ever getting his hands on them all XD

Can You 3D Print NEW Vacuum Cleaner Fans?? #shorts The Vintage Appliance Emporium 2023-08-09 | My friend and I are experimenting with 3D printing obsolete vacuum cleaner parts.We've started by creating a couple of fans for the Hoover Starlight / Junior Deluxe (U2002 / U2068) as they were notorious back in the 70s and 80s for smashing their fans to pieces on the smallest items of dirt. Here we test a couple of printed fans hot off the... printer. The grey one was perfect, the black & white one not so much. We're looking at recreating a whole selection of vacuum cleaner parts that you can no longer buy. A full video update will be forthcoming when our prototypes are ready.This is all very exciting and I can't wait to bring you more :)
Facebook Marketplace Find - Vintage 1978 Hoover U4058 Co-Op EXCLUSIVE! The Vintage Appliance Emporium 2023-07-22 | Amazing what you can still find out there in the wild... This is a one-owner-from-new 1978 Hoover U4058 upright vacuum cleaner from the Senior range and was exclusively sold by the Co-Op supermarket for a short time between (I THINK) 1977 and 1979 - although please tell me if that's wrong. They were rare and unusual in their day and they most certainly are now 45 years later. They are the only Hoover Senior to ever wear this style of motor hood in the UK. No other machine shared this 70s styling. The colour is very close to that of the U2068 Hoover Junior Deluxe (Starlight) of the same period. Maybe slightly darkerLet's hope Richard is happy with his purchase :)Don't forget to comment like and subscribe!

Facebook Marketplace Find - Dyson DC04 De Stijl - With Extras! The Vintage Appliance Emporium 2023-07-04 | Whoa it's been a hot minute since I've seen one of these vacuum cleaners and I'm so happy to have acquired it.This is the special edition Dyson DC04 De Stijl that was released around 1999 as a compliment to the standard DC04 range. If you wanted a bit more colour in your vacuuming life then the DS is the version of the DC01 / DC02 / DC04 that you bought. I remember these as being hideously expensive, in excess of £250 in 1999 which is a lot of money NOW let alone back then. So let's check it out and I'll tell you the story of collecting it. Also, as a little bonus, if your DC04 isn't picking up as it should, then I have a hack that can improve the machine's performance using a bowl and a kettle full of boiling water.

1980 Miele S220 - First Use After Restoration - Plus POWERHEAD! The Vintage Appliance Emporium 2023-06-22 | It's take a while to get round to this point but it's finally here! We can, for the first time, use our 1980 Miele S220 cylinder vacuum cleaner in the lounge. As I mention in the video - sorry I didn't film the restoration process. I can assure you it was thorough. The machine was fully stripped and cleaned, the motor was stripped, cleaned and lubricated including washing out the fans which were loaded up with dust. I then popped in a Numatic Henry HEPA-FLO dustbag and we're off!Amazingly, as I was getting ready to film this video, I laid my hands upon a Miele powerhead that that been hanging out in the lounge for months. It was the perfect opportunity to combine the two together to make the ultimate S220 - I dread to think how much this set up would have cost back in 1980. A LOT of money.Hope you enjoy the video.

Lets Service our 1973 Hoover Constellation 867A! And Remove the Suppressor The Vintage Appliance Emporium 2023-06-13 | The Constellation was unboxed in a previous video, now it's time to get it in to the workshop and give it some attention. I'm always astounded at just how easy these machines are to work on. You can have the motor in your hands in less than two minutes - try doing that on a modern Dyson lol. Hope you enjoy the video.
