I was bored this weekend and decided to weigh my current vac heard. What I measured was:

NOTES
* I haven't found a power nozzle for the Hoover Spirit yet.
** The Rainbow had a full tool caddy and wheels on it.

Enjoy!

Interesting info. Did you measure the Rainbow just by the body alone or the weight of hose, tubes and PN together?

The Rainbow was weighed...

as the canister with tool caddy (with the tools actually installed on it) and wheel base. I imagine that with those two items removed, you would save a few pounds. The power nozzle was weighed just as the fully assembled nozzle, no hose connected to it.

The Lux and TurboPower nozzles were weighed similarly, fully assembled (wands) but no hose connected.
