It Appears to be..... A Portapower with wheels- we had one model over here. Guess Oreck were badging Hoovers as their compact cannisters at one point ! Seamus | ||

Looks good in Black I must say ;] I still prefer the Hoover ones though. Ya know some of the US Portapowers had wheels too? dunno why, I'd have thought it would be easier to just carry the damn thing. Ian | ||

And, that black one on eBay must still have the DAM/Portable motor in it... as it has the Convertible switch. When they switched to the Spirit motor in the early 80's, they put the different switch on the PAP. ~F | ||

Oops--"thought" should be "bought" I didn't think a Portapower; I bought it! Sorry about the typo. Jim | ||

It's funny really, Oreck quality was probably better when they copied hoover designs :P | ||
