Made in Japan might I add.

Maybe you can add it to your burgeoning collection of various Jetflo's, Pete :P you'll be able to have a timeline, first to last lol.

I have the model MC 6210 which is other than mine being cream with burgundy accents/back is virtually identical to that one. It could be they used differing model #s to differentiate Cdn and US machines. Mines prettier I think, there it is on the right...

Oh yeah, Burgundy's one of my fave colours..I don't like the bigger ones with the side brushes and big headlights though :P

They're actually no bigger, same base, brushrolls etc..just the top covering and headlight is different. Well except for that one above which does have the sidebrushes. I think that was the only model I've ever seen to feature it. The actual smaller Jet Flo's are much nicer I think. I've only two of them the more deluxe with brush/on/off, full bag whistle and the basic no frills model. They're roughly the size of that Elux/Volta 500, easy handling.

Where's the all Burgundy one made, Pete? sounds nasty but imo if it ain't Japan, it ain't proper Panasonic :P

Heh, I like the little ones too, it's probably due to the size of Japanese houses/apartments..the Canister style is much more popular.

Which is funny because I have seen that Kirby's are actually sold in Japan, the last place I thought that would take to em lol.

Here's the smaller Jet Flo Dual Purpose, may favorite. Everyone should own one.. LOL
This is the one with the bag full whistle switch. The brushroll on/off is on the front whereas on the larger machines it's on the side.

See, the brown one's a proper Japanese vac ;p little upright, perfect for the genuinely smaller modern Japanese home.

Here I've taken the commercial model apart to investigate the eardrum piercing shrill. Me thinks a new motor is required. Note the cloth bag

And Ian, since you're a Panasonic fan I don't know if I ever posted pics of my 3 blenders before but here they are again. On the left the Recipe Blender,, very cool. In the middle the TOL Custom Deluxe chrome all electronic timer etc. and on the right the yellow 6 speed which needs a new set of blades.

The Commercial Jetflo prob uses the same motor as those blenders ;p size of the thing, no wonder they're so quiet! lol. Nice design on those Blenders, very crisp and clean..efficiency incarnate ;p

The electronic timer blender is quite neat.. that top row of buttons are 5 sec 10 sec 20 sec & 40 sec or you can press 2 at once to get say 30 secs..

The recipe one has different foods on the card in the front window.. you move the dial over to that food and turn it on which is actually a countown timer...If you press the big white button the recipe card in the window flips to another one (hence another speed and more foods) I think there's 4 "cards" in all.
