I know the sebo felix looks nice, the hoover platinum looks really classy too. What is your favourite upright vacuum in terms of looks? |

I'm not as big on looks but more so performance. But as far as new uprights, my mom got a Hoover Windtunnel Whole House Rewind and it looks nice as far as the shape and colors. I also like the look of the Kenmore Elite Crossover Ultra in purple, I liked the Kenmore Intuition in Bahama Blue best but they don't make it anymore. I also like the blue of the Hoover Windtunnel Self Propelled.

In terms of looks, for me it’s definitely the Miele Cat & Dog U1 Dynamic upright. Sleek lines and curves are the reason, and I like it in bright white. Unfortunately, these are no longer available in Canada. The simple sleek look of the Hoover Platinum lightweight upright would be second on my list.
I really don’t like the look of any of those bulky, cumbersome, overly complicated bagless uprights with all their on-board tools hanging on for dear life. |

In my opinion, is the Kirby Avalir (well, really any of the G series). Perhaps I'm old school and like a heavy-duty well built vacuum that can pull itself along. To me, the Kirby is a perfect blend of function and fashion. It's a beautiful machine (especially all polished up), and can just about pull the carpet off your floor. That combined with the tools that are available with the vacuum and you've got a perfect winning combination cleaning ensemble!

Bagged: I would say the Sebo Felix, Riccar Radiance, Miele S7, and maybe the metal Royals.
Bagless: Dyson leads by a mile in terms of appearance. Their newer products are Apple-esque in their modern beauty, and their aesthetic remains what other manufacturers vie to achieve. Whether or not the products have shortcomings, the lure of the design drives the industry, and ample sales! |

The Riccar Radiance in white pearl definitely one of my favorites. Too bad they no longer make it in that color.
@Ultralux88 The whole Miele lineup is definitely beautiful though. The new areas Electrolux canister takes my pic. |

In 1979, to me, this was the prettiest upright vacuum.

Really not possible to make any determination since pretty much all modern vacuums look and perform like crap today.
But since this topic is about the prettiest looking and not the best performing, the Bissel CleanView would be my more recent choice. Orange and black is a striking color and not a color many vacuums use.

"Really not possible to make any determination since pretty much all modern vacuums look and perform like crap today."
"There's something about shiny metal, and red or blue on a vacuum that really makes it look sexy!"
Since I agree with both of the above statements, I will post a few pictures of the prettiest vacuum of all time, in my opinion of course. This vacuum is currently in my collection:
