It’s really a shame that Hoover decided to make the converter and hose all one piece. I use my Cleaning Tools with my Convertibles often and have sucked up some big messes and clogged the converter. When this happens I use a canister to clear the clog. Really wish Hoover had kept the Ultraflex for use with the Dial-A-Matic.
Rick, I have an Ultraflex hose in brown that must have been made for 1010. I would really like to see the Ultraflex in seal griege that hose must be a real rarity. | ||

 When I bought a new Convertible 1076 in apprx. 1974, it came with a set of attachments that had one of those blasted attached converters.
Somehow I got something stuck up far enough in the hose that I could not get it out. I did not have the wherewithall at the time to get the whole thing apart, so I went to the "Authorized Hoover Dealer" in the Marina District of San Frnacisco. Long story short, I did not see the hose OR my vacuum again (yes, he wanted the vacuum too) for almost 3 months. He kept making one excuse after another to not get the problem solved and my machine returned. I reported him to the Better Business Bureau. When I got it back, I had "bad feelings" about the whole thing and sold the vacuum to a couple I knew. Oh what a mistake!
Anyway.....I HATE those dang attached converters. | ||
