It runs perfectly and fine but in order for me to get a new vacuum to restore or keep I must sell one of the ones we have now. The kirby's my mom and dads so I can't sell that. The fusion is also my mom and dads (I let them have it for the cleaning lady) so all I have left is the convertible. I refuse to sell it in a garage sale or give it to goodwill. It deserves better. So its not definite but I am seriously considering it. I am looking into a canister vac next. Like a filter queen or etc.Also keep in mind you pros (lol) I am a newbie so it is not "perfectly" restored.E-mail me or just reply to this topicazman293@hotmail.com
