I just wanted to drop a quick note to you about the ED500. I regret not purchasing it sooner, as it has already paid for itself in dusting out PC's/networking equipment as well as the Roomba's filters. It is obvious that it is made for a lifetime of use, and has a permanent place in the drawer. Thanks for making a reliable high quality product.

I recently purchased a Metro vac-n-go 500, and I am thoroughly impressed. The power, design, weight, and suction are VERY impressive.

I just purchased 500W SS unit from Costco. The elegance and the simplicity of the design is striking and on top of this functions perfectly. Bravo. Very satisfied customer and engineer,

I JUST PURCHASED THE ADM4PNHSF..TO REPLACE YOUR METROPOLITAN COMMERCIAL VACUUM CLEANER WHICH WE BOUGHT 30 YEARS AGO THRU A CHASE C/C FLYER ATTACHMENT. THAT WAS THE VACUUM THAT WOULD STICK TO THE WALL. THANKS FOR A GREAT VACUUM...HOPE THIS ONE IS JUST AS GOOD..

I just received my Metropolitan Professionals ADM-4PNHSF canister vac and LOVE it! I'd like to order lots more vacuum bags to have on hand. Can I order some directly from you? Thank you for making great products here in the USA!

Great product. Perfect for my needs as a piano technician. I only wished you made the "Made In the USA" BIGGER!

Your quick and thorough response to my queries deserves full recognition. I make many online purchases. This often necessitates email queries concerning the product. Typically, I'm lucky if 50% reply. Of those 50%, most reply as if they merely scanned my queries. They didn't really read my questions. Possibly, in this day and age, there may have been translation issues.
You, Sir, are light-years ahead of everyone else. I cannot let that go unrecognized. You simply answered each of my questions to the fullest - and I want you to know, I appreciate that.
I will most likely purchase the whole 'kit 'n kaboodle' from AutoGeek. I've dealt with them before.

I just received one of your vacuums I ordered from The Vermont Country Store. I am very pleased with it. I have 4 cats, 3 are long-haired, and I am very impressed with the ability of the machine to pick up cat hair. There is plenty of power and I like the compact size. Thank you for keeping your factory in the USA, and for offering a Made In the USA choice for a vacuum.

I purchased a Metro Meteor vacuum cleaner about thirty years ago, and after years of fine service, the motor is beginning to give out. Do you repair these old machines? And if so, where should I send it for service? Thank you for your response and the manufacture of such a sturdy, reliable machine.
Linda P. KS
The vacuum is really great. A first class product, made in the USA!

I purchased model VNB73 car Vac ‘N Blo. I hope I was able to impress upon you how exceptional your product is. It is rare that I am truly overwhelmed and impressed by a product. I usually hope for what was promised. Your vacuum is really outstanding, I would dare to say without compare. Thanks for the info.
Derek L. CA
Hello Metro: I have wanted to thank you for making truly great vacuum cleaners in the USA. I already had a few of them but not the ADM models we purchased, recently. They are by far the best product in the industry; we have tried almost every brand of vacs.
Thanks
Howard G. IL
I just bought the ADM-4 vac and I do love it immensely. I have two cats and a German shepherd and this is the greatest power in a vacuum that I've ever seen. Amazing product.
Thank-you,

I am looking for filters for a Metro Vac-Ette, Model 101, VM-2N. This fine steel vacuum cleaner was handed down from previous generations and was used today (5/10/08) to clean the inside of a computer!

I was thrilled to find your machines. I feel as though I have been searching years for the holy grail. I hate to admit how much i have spent on vacuums; only to be disappointed.

I am looking to find a part for my Metro AirForce Dog dryer. Model AFTD1....I purchased it around 1986 or so and I have never had a problem with it....until now. The switch (hi/off/low) has fused together and is now broken. Is there a replacement switch that I can purchase from you so that I can repair this? I LOVE this dryer and have had it for so long, I would love to be able to fix it.
Hope you can help me. PS Boy, I can testify that you guys build a product to last!!!! 20 + years and this is my first problem with it..

I purchased the canister vacuum from your professional line close to 2 years ago. Not only have I been so impressed with the performance of its capability to keep our carpets looking like new (which is not an easy task with a toddler), but I've been equally impressed with your outstanding customer service. It is by far superior to any other company that I've have ever dealt with. Just this past week the prong from the hose broke off and I was frantic about how I was ever going to fix it. When I called your 800 number I was expecting to be referred to a repair shop. Instead, you had me ship it to you directly and you repaired it within 24 hours and had it back to me the following day. Thank you again for all your help.

This is a super machine and so sensible. I truly like the machine. I like practical things, and I had wanted a 4 hp canister vacuum forever, it seems. I count on the Vermont Country Store to find unusual and no-nonsense items, and they hit the jackpot this time. Thanks again.

Hi, I am a proud owner of an "Orange" Vac 'N, Blo VBN-73 for over 10 years. I love using this vacuum, it's great and I would miss it if I cannot find a replacement collection bag. Recently, I was emptying the permanent cloth bag and left it unattended. My dog wanted to test the durability of the fabric and shredded it. I searched your website looking for it but no such luck. Can you please render assistance. I look forward to your reply.

Last year (March or February) I purchased a Metro Omnivac Model OV-4-ABC from the Vermont General Store. I’m 81 years old and love the cleaner, find it easy to use and it does a great job. My son was so impressed with the cleaner I purchased one for him for Christmas also from the Vermont General Store.
Thank you,

I’m trying to find P101-26 bags for my Metro Vac-Ette hand vacuum cleaner. It's a great cleaner. Purchaseded it in the '70's. Still going strong. They sure don't make 'em like they used to!

I just wish to express my total satisfaction with my metro pro full size vacuum. It's the best vacuum I have ever purchased. I am proud to own a machine of this quality made in the USA! Keep on making them. I will spread the word about them. Thanks again. Happy Holidays!
Thank you Harold G.

I have a vacuum cleaner that I bought from your company in 1981. The model number is 101, and the packaging says "Metro All-Purpose Portable Vacuum Cleaner." I am in need of new vacuum bags, and I was wondering which bags to purchase (product number and price).
Thank you Sam S.

I recently purchased your OMIVAC Model OV-4ABC from the Vermont Country Store. Great little vac!
Thank you.
Mary Beth W. SD
HI, We have an old vac that is like new. We wondered if bags were still available? The model # is 101HG , the metalline portable vac. It belongs to my aunt who is 93. She still had the original order form for bags $1.00 per package plus postage. I would like to surprise her with some new bags. She said she loved that vacuum.
THANKS, Bill M, MI
I have a model # OV-4-ABC Metro Omnivac. Can you give me the part # for the foam filter that I must replace 3 to 4 times a year. I would like to order some to have on hand. This vacuum is the best unit I have ever owned, your products rule!
Thank you, Fred H.
Can I still buy bags (P101-26) or maybe they have been replaced with another number. It ’s very old hand vacuum, but still works great. model # 101 bought in Aug 1981 for 19.95
Thank You - Bud V., NY
Hi, I have a Metro AF 3 that I purchased in 1990. Yup, 1990! It still works great! I hope the new Master Blaster I bought works as well and lasts as long as the AF 3. Anyway, I was wondering if you had a manual for the AF 3 - specifically a parts list - I have not changed ANYTHING except filters on the dryer and I think I should change the brushes or whatever the parts are in there. Then again, maybe I should leave it alone because it is working! Seriously - I love this dryer and am thinking about giving it to my son - he has his first Samoyed and this would help him with grooming. I thought I would give the dryer a good tune-up before giving it to him. I hope you can help me.
Thanks! - Theresa M., AL
My boarder, who has a 4.0 hp Vac'n'Blo that I have been using for our horses is moving away. My first thought was -- oh no! I've got to replace the vacuum. I see that you make a wall mounted vacuum for cars with a 24 ft hose. Could I buy that unit with the horse grooming attachments? Where would I purchase bags? The other option is buying the 4.0 hp large animal model with a wall mounting bracket. Do you sell that? You make a great product! My horses LOVE being vacuumed, and I don't have to breathe dust and horse hair!
Susan S., VT
I purchased a Magic Air inflator (great product!) and am looking for a mounting bracket so I can stow it on my boat. I recently saw an inflator at a boat show that looked a lot like your product and it was on such plastic mount. Any idea where I can find these mounting brackets? Please email me back.
Thanks - Victor C.
I am looking for a part number for a Merto Vac (Model 101) filter bag (paper or cloth). This unit was purchased about 30 years ago and is still going strong.
Thank you - William R., NJ
I purchased a Metro Omnivac in the 80s. It has been a wonderful vacuum, but I think it's time to replace it. Is it possible to get one vacuum that would work for hardwood floors, upholstery, and that could also be used to vacuum a basement with concrete floors and open beam ceilings?
Angela G., IA
Sir: I wish you to know how thrilled I am with the Metro Omni Vac I just purchased. It is exactly the vacuum cleaner I have been looking for for ten years. In the meantime I acquired four (4) vacuum cleaners new. They are obsolete and going to Good Will or the Salvation Army as far as I’m concerned. I’m 89 years old but I know that my daughter will appreciate it aft I stop cleaning!
Sincerely, Muriel O., WI
I just wanted to let you know I got the Vac-n-Blo yesterday from Autogeek. It is by far the best and strongest vacuum I have ever used. Its nice and compact, and yet unbelievably powerful. It has replaced my shop type vac as the detailing vacuum for the cars I work on.
Stephan Z., CT
I have your hand held car vac with a regular household plug from 1978. It is called METRO Model #101--I need the replacement disposable bags, they are made of paper with a circle ring with about 3-4 inch opening made of a thin cardboard. Where can I purchase them, are they still available?
Susan M., RI
I bought an OV-4 the end of January (1/31/07).. (from The Vermont Country Store) .. I misplaced my registration card and just noticed that it's too late to register it.
But I wanted to be sure to tell you that I find it to be an amazing, wonderful little machine. I have tried many and searched for a long time for a 'real' vacuum cleaner ... one of quality, that is very powerful and easy to move around with, with useful attachments and a long hose, plus this one is even small and light-weight. Also, I was pleasantly surprised that the tiny little filter bag lasts longer than I expected; the contents appear to get very compressed. This fine tool will be a part of my household for a long time.

Hi, I Purchased your Vac N BLO portable Vacuum from AUTOGEEK.NET, and with it came the Four Wheel Dolly. I was shocked how powerful the little guy is. The Vac is excellent. An excellent buy.....

COMMENTS: Went into business last July, I purchased your VAC N BLO CAR VAC product two months after we started. It saved us over half an hour vacuuming and cleaning compared our previous equipment.
I had a question on a part - was notified within 3 minutes with a response. Other vendors we have don't compare! Keep up the great work - the product works extremely well, durable and fast! Its must have for anyone who does ANY vacuuming!
Thank you for putting out a great product!
Fred P, IL
Hi,
I did want to tell you that our old Air Force model AF3 isn’t broken after all these years of use and has NEVER been repaired, it just is rusting and looks bad so it will stay home from the shows and the new little guy will travel…
Thanks again from a VERY satisfied old customer…keep up the good work, in 20 years or so I might want another…
Sharon G. IL
Dear Folks,
I recently purchased an Metro OmniVac from The Vermont Store. I wanted to thank you for making a great "little" vacuum. My old vacuum was 35yrs old, a mint green Hoover upright, made in the USA. I needed a new vacuum but refused to buy a foreign made one. While still using the worn-out Hoover I waited and searched for 5 years for a new one made in the USA.
