Actually, I don't really like it. The cord exits the vacuum at the bottom - it's far better to have it exit at the top of the handle. Also, it looks rather bulky - would be difficult to have it lie flat to get under furniture.
Something tells me this is a concept design from many decades ago - not today. |

It comes from a guy called Sachin Mistry who is an industrial designer and its only an exercise and not licensed actually by the Hoover corporation. Im sure there are a few good ideas here, though.

I like the retro design idea. Its beautifull. Ive came across the design idea on accident looking for hoovers. I think its a good idea and it will reach deeper under furniture because theres no need for the motor in he hood. |

The floor nozzle on the Hoover "Q" looks like a birds foot-Could see where this would be good.Gets into corners and such well.Interesting vacuum. |

Here's an Electrolux branded upright polisher I found yesterday - i.e the photo of. The ZP1.41
When you think how far we've come with uprights, if this had a beater bar I think some people may well be interested in buying it.
