1995 Hoover Encore Supreme Hard Bag - Twenty Blade Fan
Переглядів 22414 днів тому
Here is this Hoover Encore Supreme U5059-930 from June 1995. This machine is in great shape. Though the original seven blade fan was broken. It sounded atrocious. But since I first tested it, I have installed a twenty blade fan in this machine. So now it runs smoothly, and has a lot of power. Enjoy!
Former Site of Rolling Acres Mall - 6/15/24

6/15/2024 Here is the former site of Rolling Acres Mall, which was a large mall in Akron, Ohio. It opened in 1975, closed in 2008, and was demolished in 2016 and 2017 to make room for an Amazon Distribution Center. This mall suffered the same exact fate as Randall Park Mall in North Randall, Ohio. Here you can see the last remaining piece of the mall, the former Sears anchor.
Idora Park Property - Brief Visit 6/15/24

6/15/2024 I made another brief visit to the Idora Park Property. This time just along the edge like most people do. It was very peaceful and full of wildlife, as it always is these days. Eventually, I would love to walk the grounds again. Just remember, ask for permission from the property owner. Before walking the grounds.

Marion Centre Mall - Dead Mall - 6/8/24 #deadmall
Переглядів 15221 день тому
We visited Marion Centre Mall, which opened as Southland Plaza in 1959. It was enclosed, and renamed Southland Mall in 1978. Then finally, in 2010, it was slightly renovated and renamed Marion Centre Mall, in hopes of revitalization. This Mall is pretty much dead, with almost all shops empty, and no anchor stores left. Just two or three shops, and a Movie Theatre. It’s very quiet and eerie insi...

Remember me. I was FoxyTheTractorMan
@@GamerFolf I do
@@KirbyVacuumCollectorFixer I still run my classic omega
You got really lucky with that twin chamber sounding that good
What do I do if the light won’t turn on
love the machine just from where did you get it
Welcome back Tristan
I would have to say that this would be a cool comeback starting with my freshly serviced Concept 2
It definitely was, I have a concept Two but I need a cord for it.
I have an idea for the voice arragement. Old Paul: Station ID New Paul: Weather Forecast Donna: Lake forecast Tom: Severe weather events. Sound good?
@@WisconsinWeatherRadios That’s not too bad. Though here is what I think it should be: Old Paul/Harry: Current Time New Paul: Station ID & Marine Forecast Donna: Synopsis & Hourly Observations Tom: Weather Forecast, Climate Summary, and all alerts (EAS & non EAS).
@@KirbyVacuumCollectorFixer Good idea! I want this to happen! but unfortunately, that depends on the computer software. The newer software has BMH while the old has CRS It maybe impossible unless if there's one way to do it
I need to understand why Kirby stopped making the charcoal infused hepa bags....
@@One-Day-After-Another I really don’t know to be honest. I don’t understand it either.
I'd take the whirlwind and Kenmore
Wow, you’re one was made in June. I have the same exact model. Mine was made in July. Same exact year too! My mom bought ours at target when it was new. 😊
Kirby vacuums are the best
Hi! I was wondering if I can convert my Kirby Heritage 1 with the Sani-emptor & style 2 bag assembly back to the shakeout style assembly by removing the fill tube for the paper bag, would this work as a shakeout bag even though the cloth bag still has the full zipper?
The white. And red is what I want
Nice machine! Reminds me of my late granny's Elite Supreme. Her vacuum was also made in 1995.
i wish my savers sold canister vacuumxs
Very cool little movie theater!!!
Looks like a nice mall on the inside. I dig those inline stores that have entrances in the mall corridor and also doors outside. A great example of another mall in good shape that could easily be converted to apartments… but that won’t happen..😢
Take the other hoover
Love the old Hoover's I'm working on getting my 2004 Wintunnel cleaned serviced and repaired it needs a new power switch it's stuck on so for now I've just been plugging it in my surge box and turning it off and on that way other than that it works good and has a crap ton of suction at the hose!
Where you got the 20 blade fan?
I had a spare.
I love that Sears scar
Great to see that back up and running again (sounding nice and quieter with the 20 blade fan), I wouldn't want to see it go to waste or even get parted out. I really love the powder blue color to this, there were only a few more Elites in that color that I know of. I have the same model, since it was a vacuum I grew up with from childhood (also that one is about half a year older than mine), but what I would really love to find is the Convertible Elite in this exact same blue color. I also find it very hilarious that this (among many other select year Elites from 95, maybe 94) has the provision for a handle mounted power switch (it was probably originally for a Legacy), but for whatever reason they needed to rush these out the door, but already had the handles made, so they threw it on some Elites from around 1995 and capped off the switch provision up top, so at least you've got a rare switch blank model of Elite.
You can’t keep a good vacuum down.
It lives on!
That has to be the most dust free piece of carpet in the country by now!
Beautiful vacuum s my mom had the 65 model only in blue.
I think the weird noise in the 65 model is coming from the impeller blade
I have a question about this model (517 Kirby) an item I was given. I need to understand how to attach the hose attachment, is it different than younger models? Thanks!
The 517 still used a separate metal coupler that the hose would twist onto. Once you twist those together, you can mount the hose on the Kirby like normal. Hope this helps!
Where the hell are people getting Broom Vacs? I haven't seen one in person at all!
They’re on eBay.

3:14 that dust tho
Oh indeed!
Cool you found a Twin Chamber! I have that model.
#Vacuumwitch
iv always always wanted that convertible
YIKES! That Encore Supreme desperately needs a fan. I hope you still have the 7 blade fan from your turquoise Runabout to throw in and get it up and running.
Sweet finds Tom
I love the Convertible
Hello, I am currently on Ventura 13.5.2 and am going to update to Sonoma 14.5, big jump yeah. I want to ask your experience on Sonoma in terms of performance, battery life, software, and cooling.
Ooooo JCPenney Convertible! Its unfortunately the Encore has a bad fan
Yeah! And for sure, but at least it’s an easy fix.
We have a Dirt Devil Ultra hand vac
Do these 516s use dispsable bags inside the cloth bag or does all the dust collect in the cloth bag? Thanks.
All Kirbys older than 1979 (Tradition 3CB) came standard with a shakeout bag. The cloth bag itself is where the dirt collects. You shake it out every several uses. The Tradition 3CB was the first Kirby to come with a paper bag setup. You can customize older Kirby’s to use paper bags very easily though. That’s the beauty of Kirby vacuums, they’re very customizable.
@KirbyVacuumCollectorFixer thank you for that info! Is the conversion as simple as getting a bag from a newer vacuum? Is it possible to take the hose from a newer Kirby and put it inside the original cloth bag? I'd like to keep the original look as much as possible. I may just leave it like it is but it would be nice to use the disposable bags.
@@Sc0teeBe318 If you have an original style open slide top cloth bag. You can put that on a Heritage II/Legend mini emtor with filltube. You’ll be able to use Kirby Twist bags with that setup.
My parents almost bought one from a salesman back in 2017
I have the exact same model with 2017 on the handle. Great machine.
That's a nice Kirby. I,too, love the extra red in it. It looks unique.
Agreed, the red accent pieces are a nice change of pace, & the 50’ cord is more useful than I expected. Maybe the red accents are similar to the G6 2000 & 2001 Limited Edition runs? Regardless it just plain fun.
Mine had a Kirby g5 I did not take it it worked as well
Thank you Thomas. for bringing me there I always wanted to go to Marion because that’s where my mom grew up it pretty much looks the same as when she left in 1988
You’re very welcome buddy! It was very cool walking through that Mall, and driving around Marion.
This is even more abandoned than my local mall
It's so weird you made this video. I've been watching a lot of abandoned mall videos lately.
Are you gonna sell the can vac? Is so how much
$40 plus shipping sound good to you?
That's in very good condition, and it sounds good too. It's honestly sad that maintenance is such a foreign concept to people, like changing the belt and changing the bag, or even cleaning out the filters on a vacuum if equipped. Instead of replacing those very items and having the vacuum last them a good few indefinite number of years, they'd rather throw it out to buy some newfangled vacuum to abuse it the same way, and then throw that away once it stops working the way it did when it was new.
