Abode 2 in 1 Stick Questions & Answers

I buy and sell new and used goods and review them. Google search (lawsonsnewandused) if you need a filter i could have a secondhand filter. Let me know if you need one. Ray.

If you Google search "Statewide Appliances" They have depos in most states. You can get really hard to come by parts from these guys. I buy & sell new and used goods online, and im forever looking microwave plates and vacuum cleaner parts, hoses etc. These guys have supplied me with many parts. They have a depo at Coburg North 9am - 5pm Mon to Friday (03)83719100. They should be able to help you or point you ion the rite direction.

Hi Connie.

As far as I know this machine is no longer available, but I think Big w have replaced it with a Contempo vacuum cleaner which is very similar in looks, I looked it up this Morning. Price $29.00

Hope this helps Gramps

Thank you muchly

Thank you muchly

Yes it does, you can use it as a dustbuster.

Our daughter gifted hers - but no instructions - we have tried pulling - twisting pleading... but it wil not budge! Is there a secret way?

No but it can be removed from the main stick but has a very long cord.

Adobe extension handle removal.

Unwind the power lead from the extension handle, on the right hand side of the machine is a small red button push this all the way in and at the same time pull the extension handle out.

Hope this helps. Gramps

Thankyou

Big W most big towns have one, I got mine in Canberra.

I don't think you can get spare parts. You could look around the second hand for sales lists on ebay or gumtree and see if you can find a second hand one. I actually purchased two brand new when I picked mine up because I was aware of the problem of the back locks being weak. One to use and one for spares. They are really cheap so it might be worthwhile just going and purchasing a new one. Seems like such a waste I know, I hate waste but we unfortunately live in this throw away society these days.

Agree with you Jac.

It happened to mine onece as well. I'd done the same thing to hold them with masking tape as you did, Pam lol

I don think they sell indivisual parts, tho.

Agree with you Jac I would buy a new one but no one has them in stock

That's right. The brand name was changed but actually the same product.

I bought the CONTEMPO after a while looking for Abode which gone from the stock line. Old Abode filter fits perfectly and they seem they are made in the same mechanic line.

Ihi Dusty. I want to buy a new 2in 1 as mine is now code to 5 yrs old. U could have the floor brush part from me as I will finally throw this one out or just use the short part of the vacuum cleaner for my car. I need to find out how to get a new one myself. Prob email directly to the manufacturer. Great little machine.

Hi Ming, Thank you very much for your kind offer. It would be good if we could get the Brush Attachment from you when you have finished with it as we really like the little Vacuum Cleaner and it is very handy.

Whereabouts are you ?? and How can we get the attachment from you ?? please Advise.

Kind Regards, ............... John

Hi Ming, Still awaiting your reply re the Brush Attachment. Please Advise ..... Regards,.......... Dusty

I don't think they sell the filter separately. I sometimes wash and reuse it but it lasts till the vacuum wrecked every time.

Hi - I bought one exactly the same as you and unfortunately have no idea where you can get another. Mine is still going strong.

They are on the BigW website under the name Contempo. external link 

It is 600 watts. I find it has great suction and compact and can store it away in a storage cupboard. Yes it does pick up hair, hard food bits etc. You must clean it out after you finished vacuuming.

No! Apparently you can't buy the filters.

I am sure if you take the filter to Bunnings or the like they will be able to sell you some of the fabric it is made from and you can cut it to size.

You should be able to buy it at Big W.

I purchased mine at Big W - $49.

Hi - I bought mine in Big W, however, I am not sure the exact same one is still available, best check with them - good luck!

I bought ours last year. $50 still worth it.

I bought it at BigW Brookside in Mitchelton over 12 months. Also bought another one recently for $50. Yes they have gone up a lot.

I paid $50 at Big W, North Lakes, May 2014. I had been keeping an eye out for a special prior to purchasing, however I gave up and paid full price. Worth every cent - if it died today, I'd rush straight out and buy another of the same.
