I have a few questions on the Kenmore jellybean canisters.
It seems in the late 90s that all Kenmore canisters went to the early 90s Whispertone style body - cord rewind bar, and no vents between the bag cover and motor cover. (See link). So when did the jellybean Whispertone canisters come out, was it the same year as the Progressive? And did these have the combo tool or still have separate dusting and fabric tools? It seems that the Whispertone at some point became the BOL while Progressive was TOL. When did the curved headlight PN first come out? I've seen jellybean Whispertones with the 90s style PN at first. I've also noticed some Whispertones with HEPA filter and some with "Advanced Allergen Filtration". Was the Whispertone discontinued in 2005? Thanks! CLICK HERE TO GO TO fan-of-fans's LINK |

Vance, thanks for the information. I remember that green vacuum you mentioned, I think it was called guacamole, and I saw them at Kmart a few years ago. They weren't actually called Whispertone although they had the same body and the PN was the first curved headlight one and didn't have a quick release.
Mark you are correct, the HEPA canisters aren't really sealed at the edges of the filter. |
