love it I had one I inherited from my great grandmother and loved it. It was nearly new when I got, she had central vac so the princess was next to never used. But sadly I gave it my Aunt when she moved out of state. The long hose on these is great! | ||

The long hose coupled with a long cord is indeed awesome! (Unlike my shop vac that had a 4 foot cord until I replaced it with a 16 foot one!) | ||

Thanks for the comments guys! Filter Queen is fast becoming one of my favorite brands, as I've not used another vac with more suction and better filtration yet! And since I primarily have wood floors, it makes sense to have a canister as my daily driver! | ||

II vs III Princess III would have had better wheels and longer hose.If hoses are same now the III may have been changed to more common shorter hose after original wore.-Both are great vacs! | ||

Tom:
There's one that even you forgot about....the short-lived green Filter Queen Optima, which used a bag instead of the filter cone.
Will: Very nice Princess III! Looks like it has been well cared for. If you don't mind me asking, though, what happened to the original powerhead? I see you have a Princess II powerhead in your photo. As most people know here, I do prefer Electrolux to Filter Queen, but I do have 2 Model 700's & a Limited Edition in my collection, & they do have their merits as a cleaner too I guess :-) Rob | ||

The post-motor filter
was called the "Filter Bat" and was made of cotton. It helped quiet down the motor and filtered carbon brush dust. About ten years ago, Health-Mor started using foam, which did not quiet down the motor very well - BUT - they were using a single fan motor that created a lot of heat and the cotton filter bat didn't allow the heat to escape once it got dirty. The overheat light would go on. I do not know of any supplier of the original cotton filter batting that we could use today. If anyone finds a source, please let us all know.
