Hi All i have been wanting this type of Hoover for years. Here on Long island New York it is near inpossible to get old vacuums. All plastic crap out to the curb. a while back on e-bay i joined Pay pal a big mistake only because it now is so easy to buy any way E-bay had this very nice looking Hoover Jr Model330 for 59.99 i loved the way it looked almost new so before i new it i hit the buy it now button got the vacuum in less then a week the seller packed it very, very well and inculed a new extra bag and a extra belt. It works like a charn i just love useing it almost like haveing a Hoover Convertible. The only thing i dont like about it is the cord is very short but what a wonderful vacuum. My Kirby is now mad at me for not useing him every day. I thought you all would like to hear my Hoover story. This vacuum is build like a Hoover should be Doug
