Ok I cleaned up another vacuum this evening. I got this one at a vacuum store (it was a trade in) while I visited St. Louis recently. |

This thing was absolutely filthy. I think the previous owner was a hair dresser because the power nozzle was packed with human hair clippings. EEW! |

Look how long the hose is! The canister is so heavy to pull around, this hose makes it much more easier to manage. |

The filtration system is not TOO bad. I was surprised to see it uses a cloth bag with paper bag combination. |

Here's a peak inside. There was no dust leakage from the bag (unless someone had already cleaned the inside out...) |

I'm glad the power nozzle on this is the same as those found on Kenmore vacuums. I hated the Filter Queen made power nozzles that came with the older Royal canisters... |

Logan that is a beautiful vacuum. I use to have the blue model, which I believe was earlier than yours. It went to live with a friend in Tucson. They have fantastic suction. |

That's fabulous! Love the color! I've always had my eyes open for one of those... they seem like they'd be great vacuums! I know they're built like tanks! Congrats! ~Fred |

The design is dead. Too bad really. They were quite good. Back to the Filter Queen PN. I'm sure they don't perform as well, I just think they are better to look at and fit in better with the Royal's appearance. |

That was the LAST of the Royal canisters to have the PN. They continued to make a grey one for a while but with no PN. It might have had a plug for one but I don't think so. That didn't go over well because who would want to pay that much for a canister and not have the PN so it died altogether. So if any of you have that Royal (burgany colored) it is a keeper since it was the last. I have the blue one and it still looks like new. I agree that the filter queen PN is not as good but I also agree that it looks pretty groovy. What do you all think of the new filter queen PN. I have one and I like it but I don't know if I love it. |

Is that blue power nozzle in the ebay link above the one that would go with my blue Royal pot canister? |

The local Miele dealer was a Royal dealer a while back and I can remember being told something about the motor issues. They know what they are talking about so I'd belive it. |
