~ Lovely, but I believe it's a "Reconditioned by Metropolitan" specimen. None of the Model XXXs - even the last one - came with a woven vinyl hose; they were still woven cloth.
Also note the gray power cord -- XXXs always had black Belden cords.
I wish the seller had taken better - and more - photos, e.g., the cleaner out of the box, the box itself, the attachments, the polisher etc. etc. etc. |
