    Can anyone please help?

    The wife is nagging me crazy to do something about her Hoover. The bag is split at the bottom near where it joins at the bottom (see arrow). Apparently it blows more dust around the house than it picks up…. 🙄

    Now I’ve stuck it up with Elastoplast but it keeps blowing off!!!! 😕

    Can I get a new bag for it???????

    And yes, I think those bags are still available.

    BAG22/23 or 70 from Qualtex Martin 😉

    The chances of them having any left though is slim 😆

    😳 Sorry it is of course the everlasting Hoover 375 – sorry GB for not giving the model number 😳

    Lovingly made for us by Hoover Ltd in Perivale way back in 1951…(a good year for vacs apparently?).

    Thanks for the info Dave by the way (oh dear! Obsolete 🙁 ) I am going to give the bag one more try at plugging the hole using gaffer tape (that should do it I reckon! :rotfl: )

    Thanks anyway guys………. 😀

    P.S…did you spot the ‘moulded plug’ by the way in the photo…….. :rotl:

    Errrrrr, I’m only teasing about the 375 by the way, lest you go putting yourself out on my behalf over it?

    Just a bit of fun you understand 😉

    Here is the full picture……

    😆 Very good! :tup:

    I talked to the guy that I thought could help us, and he said…

    “What? Are you kidding?”

    I’d tell you to sell it to a museum, but… well, there still loads of them out in the field, still working 😀
