I have the same model, which had the same problem. The brake pad on the cord reel was bad. It was also covered in tobacco tar and the brushroll was so wound with hair that it was too thick to turn in the housing.

What was the first prize ribbon for? I see you have a Concept II as well. I haven't seen one of those in ages, none have turned up for me. Looks like we have the same blue Eureka as well. | ||

It won the 65-85 beater bar vacuum division of the cleaning competition at the 2006 VCCC convention in St. Louis. My Concept 2 is in fairly bad shape, the drive is very jerky. | ||

Concepts
Hi Pete, will polish up a treat I`m sure, those look solid powerful vacs, never used one of these, isnt it amazing what people dont know about stuff they have....makes our hobby much more interesting finding out dont you think!!... Reggie, I`m not familiar with the concept 2, what is the handle on the front box for?? is it a dust cup or small hand vac?? Cheers, Mike | ||

Mike That is the "help mate" you take the cord out of the machine and put it in to that hand vac. it is no more than an electric dustbuster! Kyle | ||

As opposed to a non electric dustbuster? | ||

IMHO I think the Concepts and the essentially similar PowerMaxs were the epitome, the apex, the acme, the highest of heights for Hoover performance | ||

Good save, Pete. These Concepts are probably my all-time favorite when you really want to get something really filthy - really clean. I have a power-drive, later version with the "surge" feature, but it's a workhorse. Jeff P. gave me an earlier non-power drive Concept One and with the new brushes he put on it, you don't even need the power-drive, it will propel it self across the room if you don't hold on tight! Use it in good health! G | ||
