I'm not sure if this is the correct category for my newly acquired Royal 4000. I used to know how to read Royal serial numbers in order to tell when they were manufactured. But I've forgotten, so I'm calling on our Royal experts to help me with the dating of this vacuum!
I once owned a Model 2025; however, I gave it to a friend who needed a good upright. But I love Royal uprights, so I had to have another!
Royal is now making HEPA bags (as opposed to the old "HEPA type") bags. So I installed a new one, along with a brand new brush roll, and it cleans like a champ!
One of the great things about this Royal model are the brush stiffeners. They provide the "cushion of air" that helps propel the vacuum along.

It was already in really great shape. But I went ahead and give it a quick hand polish. When the weather warms up, I'll disassemble it and give it a good machine polish.

If memory serves me right, I think this serial number indicates that it was made in 2002.
