Hello Mark,
Fabulous cleaners these im sure others can chip in with the history and dates I can never remember when they ran apart from the late 60s to mid 70's. The colourscheme is called 'Mandarin Blue' which is my favourite Hoover colourscheme I think next to the later Wedgewood Green. restoring one would be fun but im sure theres a few of us here that could give you a masterclass in doing it. Dont worry about the paper bags they use. Generic or genuine work just fine and I've had great success of modifying 'synthetic filter type' bags onto these cleaners. The generic ones are usually quite cheap and do much the same so dont feel you have to waste money if you dont want to. Never had any issues with non Gen or generic belts either -others here have but then I rarely use ours as we have modern daily machines. Once the bug gets you thats it! Vacs everywhere. 300+ and counting up LOL. |

Wellspotted,
Me and the other half collect washers dryers dishwashers and the odd cooker lol. The hotpoint was taken out of daily service a while back and replaced with a modern Bosch which I dont feel guilty about battering to an extent. And its much more reliable than vintage when you need work clothing washed weekly without fuss. |

Welcome! Local to me too (Stokenchurch)! I used to have one of these too, sadly something fell on it years ago and shattered the body. If I see any, I'll grab it for you |
