Either Eureka or Convertible uprights. Those leave nice lines on the carpet. I love the lines my '78 Eureka with the VG-1 leaves on the carpet. Daniel :) |

My TriStar CXL w/VGII leaves very nice tracks on plush carpet; the Kirby leaves good tracks on shag. :) Even an Electrolux PN1 or PN2 do nicely. |

I think I'm probably going to say that I prefer to be not bothered about lines, bit like striped lawns, just seems to be a waste of time to do something which goes away after a relatively short while... :\ |

Hi, I've noticed Kirbys leaves nice lines as well.
One thing I have noticed is that not all people like lines. In fact I've had a few customers over he years ask for a vac that don't leave lines. I think it depends what type of carpet you have in your home as to whether you get lines or not. James:o) |

The ONLY lines ever made in this house. My aunt(the one whom we buried in Ireland), was a snoop.
God forgive me, but true. I caught her , because I vacuumed myself out of my room one day. When I went back in, there were little (size 6) shoeprints. HOOVER solved the crime. lol. When I first saw carpet lines, I thought you meant carpet brands. If so, Karastan for me. |

@bagintheback: Did you use a Hoover Z bag upright, like a Futura, Dimension Supreme, Runabout, Legacy, or other Z bag upright? |

The Hoover Convertible would be my favorite as well! Here is a video that Chad from Ann Arbor, Michigan made of his 704 demonstrating carpet lines. I have a 704 as well, but it's missing the original bag. Great Cleaner! CLICK HERE TO GO TO kloveland's LINK |
