It's a cute novelty item, for sure, but I honestly can't see how anybody would ever use this thing to clean their house. However, it is all original and complete, so I can't complain too much. Once it receives a spa treatment and its dry motor bearings get taken care of, this little monstrosity will be going bye-bye. 

 

Pictures to follow.

It came with two packages of vintage generic bags. One is still sealed.

Uh oh.....there's trouble afoot!

One of the real vacuum cleaners (I.E. a Hoover) has caught a whiff of an outsider! Mr. Hoover is NOT pleased and glares at the intruder whilst it has its picture taken. The Hoover also grumbled and complained about having to clean up the lovely trail of styrofoam bits the Roll-Easy belched out all over the oriental rug when switched on.

The Roll-Easy is completely filthy and will be receiving a very thorough bath. I'm shocked I even let it through the front door. But, as I said, it is all original and complete. Also, as I said, once it's cleaned up and the motor has been serviced, it will be up for sale. I have yet to determine if I will list it on eBay or if I will offer it for sale here. To be continued...........

Any way you look at it, a Roll-Easy is a great find!

btw, the white stuff on the attachments is a type of mold, easily removed by spraying it down with chlorine bleach. Let it sit for a minute or so, then thoroughly rinse it off.

Hi Matt ,
Roll Easy vacs are hard to come by. Why are you getting rid of it. Are you going to put it on eBay?
Thank

I think..

A Roll Easy along with a big wheel Lewyt and a Westinghouse Mobile Cleaner were about the best designed vacuums ever, I could certainly clean house with one, and if I ever find a set of attachments for mine I will!!
