Does any one know the history of these vacuums or the envolvement of James Dyson in their production? And if anyone sees that cms 1000 on ebay please let me get it I have been dreaming about A cms 1000 since I was 6.

Most of the time I do see the one with the height adjuster on the front. Anyway, if I see one I'll email you.

If you can, try and find an Amway ClearTrak. The CMS-1000 hasn't been produced in about 15 years, and not all of the parts are interchangeable. I just bought (what I thought) was a mint CMS-1000 off eBay. When I got it I discovered the collection bin was cracked. I ended up having to replace not only the bin, but the cone assembly inside and the whole upper tower assembly. The people at ClearTrak.com were very helpful though. You can send them a CMS-1000 and they will refurbish it into a ClearTrak. Personally, they are my favorite bagless vacuum, maybe because they were the first here in the States. Definitely more heavy-duty than the Dyson.

I am not one to post Ebay links BUT if you search 'amway vacuum' on ebay. There are 2 Amway CMS 1000's. One is $201 and one is like $154 or something. One is an auction and the other is at the bottom of the page. Hope it helps.
