Yes, I actually did get this for free from a vacuum shop of sorts stationed in a very large flea market in Cinci. Basically, the offices of the flea market were holding a drawing once an hour of this container of tickets. When you go to park, you gwt a ticket, sign it, put it in the container. And wouldn't you know it, I won! $100 no less, as credit to any stall in the facility. The bad part was, it was issued as individual papers, valued at $1 each, and you had to sign every one of them, front and back! There has to be a better way lol.

But on to the sweeper! What a lovely color, isn't it? As time goes on, I'm finding more Eurekas that I'm actually liking. As I was growing up Eureka had kindof a bad name in my family, didn't have any luck with them. But this one, it's quite the smart vac! (Not sorry for the pun). It really does do a great job, especially for a "newer" Eureka (which those I still have some problems with, sorry if you are a fan). Really though, quite happy to have this one.

Oh and for all of you that actually read to the end of this, I got a 2nd sweeper too with the price money! Find out what it is on the next post!

I have the same one you have, it was birthday present my sister got for me at a pawn shop for $40 on my 19th! It works like a beast! All it needs is a hose, brush, and nozzle.

and they stopped making them :( sigh - it even has sealed hepa filtration. Let me guess, They discontinued this so they could create more BAGLESS vacuums.

Is it just me or are are cheap bagless ones just made of garbage? I'm personally ok with a few bagless machines, variety is the spice of life. But....man is there some pathetic stuff out there now.
