The very rare Silver King made in 1966 by Thompson and Sons in Lyons, IL. It works like the day it came out of the factory.

My 1967 Electrolux lineup. On the left is the economy model L with its automatic cord winder. On the right is the automatic model G deluxe. Quiet and powerful. Some of my favorite vacuums to use. #vintagevacuum #electrolux

A 1982 Silver Knight vacuum cleaner private labeled for the Oreck corporation. With the extra wide power head, it cleans so much of the rug at once. One of my favorite machines. #vintagevacuum

Saw another Tesla in town with red paint all over it. There was so much there was only a little hole for the driver to see out of the windshield. I laughed my ass off. Idiots.

Circle the Wagons means something different when they are vintage tank-type vacuum cleaners. A very small part of the total collection.

The 1967 Electrolux picks up all the little doggie hairs, and Mr. Zakk doesn't mind at all.

On our trip back home from our honeymoon, Donnie and I stopped at a thrift store and I found a corning ware piece I've been looking forever for. The electric skillet. One of the best electric skillets ever made, called the ElectroMatic. Any Corning Ware piece could be used. #vintagecorningware

So proud of Electrolux for making it to 100 years in the United States. And still going strong. #electroluxvacuum

My 1930 model 12 Electrolux. Made in Sweden, exported to the United States for sale. It runs like the day it came out of the factory, very quiet and smooth. What a joy to clean with. #vintagevacuum #electrolux

My 1952 Hobart mixer. It features a three speed transmission, and would mix asphalt if I wanted it too. This mixer is the reason I wanted to be a pastry chef. #hobart #kitchenaid

The Air-Way Signature Series. I designed this vacuum cleaner for Air-Way in 2001. My favorite vacuum cleaner of all time, because it solved every problem every vacuum cleaner ever had.

My 1960 Hoover Lark was borrowed by the television show "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel". They returned it to me looking better than when I sent it. It's not the first one of my vacuums that has appeared in TV or films.
