Smart move. Good timing. http://www.bissell.com/Products/c/UprightVacuum/p/HealthyHomeVacuum/product.aspx Several of this weekend's ads by retailers feature the Healthy Home. Carmine D.

Hello Lucky1: Thanks for the info on the BISSELL HH. Sounds like you have an excellent workaround to fix. Many years ago the HOOVER Dials had a similar problem with the male/female connection inside the handle and the handle bolt. Both came undone. [Not to mention the breakage on the casing where the handle was inserted caused by the loosening bolt]. HOOVER solved the problem with a longer screw that inserted into the plug connection. Solved the problem. Carmine D.

With the D,A,M.S. handle socket problems, I remember these well,
Carmine remember the aftermarket handle bracket kit, that had to be drilled and bolted to the cleaner housing? I must have done hundreds of them.
The weight of the machine and the pull push while cleaning, the handle bolt backed out and the handle got all loose goosee, and cracked the housings,a little lock tite on the bolt would have stopped the problem.

Hello MOLE: I used quite a few of the brackets too. Very unsightly but they were a bootleg quick and easy fix which was inexpensive for the customers. HOOVER forced their customers to buy and replace the entire casing. A costly repair. The 3 position height adjustments and then the power assisted Dials ultimately resolved the problem. The loctite solution is a remedy you adapted to vacuums from your automobile experience. N-I-C-E-L-Y done. Carmine D.
