Today I got a bissell 10 amp off of craigslist for $20. It is a bit scratched up, but works great and has all of the attachments. I think this was made by roybi in the late 1990's? Are these rare?, because this is the first one i've seen on craigslist in my area, and i haven't seen any on ebay. I hope you guys don't mind I took a photo from vacuumland. I posted a pic of the exact model.
Also- I also went to a volunteers of america- had a dirt devil envision, the classic upright with that black peice of plastic in the front corner(i dont remember what that is), and a hoover windtunnel max cyclonic. The envision looked almost new but I don't have interest in those), I liked the other DD but I have the mvp already, which is almost exactly the same, but I almost got the hoover, but It was dirty, had a burnt bulb, and was missing all but the brush, the filter was dirty too- it wasn't worth $20 to me- the classic was $10 and the envision was $20. i'm not sure what kind of value system they use, but it sure doesnt make sense to me!!! |

I had one, mine was blue, but was in really bad condition, and had no attachments. I think I paid 2or 3 dollars for it, and ended up parting it out for the motor, which went into a 9 amp version of the same unit. It was pretty poor at cleaning and was extremely loud, I dont think I would want another one.

Old bissells are like hoovers. I am not a drooler for the design/asthetics/performance of that kind, but only like it because we used to have a Singer version from 1997-2001. |
