When my vacuum cleaner quit working, I was ready to discard it. It is very old, and it just suddenly stopped. I assumed that the motor had died. Juts to make sure, I took it to Nilson's House of Vacuums. I am so glad I did! They totally took it apart, cleaned all the parts, and restored it to like-new condition! The owner Bob, told me that the motor was clogged and it had an automatic shut-off to prevent fire! I was charged an extremely reasonable price, and now it picks up just like new! I am astounded and very grateful that I did not go out and purchase a new vacuum cleaner! If you have trouble like I did, don't panic; go straight to Nilson's! You'll be glad you did! read more
