Got this today - says Eureka Super-Power on the hood - says it's a model 248. The brush roll is shot and I haven't turned it on yet, but the lady said it worked. Looks like it'll polish up really nicely! $10 seemed more than fair?

I'm having a hard time finding a replacement brush roll for this vacuum - the one that is on there is all wood with square shaped bits on the ends. -- if anyone can point me in a direction that I might find one, I'd greatly appreciate it!

Will this bag fit on this machine and let me use throw away bags? Is it that simple? What bag would this machine have come with? CLICK HERE TO GO TO sfcoronet's LINK on eBay | ||

I just realized that the vg2 had the hex endcaps. And as stated above that bag will work perfectly fine. I do recall seeing one before and know someone who had a eureka 260 I believe. I had found a brushroll for whim wit square end caps. I will look for ya and if I find one I will send you the link. | ||

It has the 3.5 amp pancake motor most likely. Those motors were more powerful than the blender motors I believe. | ||

3.35 amps - thanks for helping me find a brush roll. I'm thinking I might have to custom make one out of a new roll with the end caps of the one that is on there... | ||

Got the new black outer bag that lets me use F&G bags - it seems to work MUCH BETTER now! I'm still looking for a brushroll that will work. I thought the black bag complimented the lines of the vacuum better - I've also always thought that all machines should be either black or gray. What do you think?

That looks really sharp with that black bag. Good call! And you can't beat a paper bag vs. a dumpout. This would work in your machine... CLICK HERE TO GO TO HooverCelebrity's LINK on eBay | ||

Found a "square end" brush roll at the "old timer" vacuum shoppe by me. The "old timer" behind the counter said he had at least 8 of them in the back for $17 each (which is a much friendlier price than what I was finding on eBay). If anyone needs one, let me know and I can pick one up and put it in the mail to you. | ||
