Hey Antoine,
Those are such unusual little vacuums. I had never even heard of them until I discovered this site about a year ago. The only one I've ever seen in person was branded TriStar. Are they made by the same company? It looked identical, except it was a sort of grey or silver hammertone finish, with a white bumper. It was at our local Savers store for, I believe, $29.99. All it had with it was the hose, wands, and a metal floor nozzle. Barry |

Those green C-8 Compact cleaners with turbine nozzles were available some years ago on eBay, new in the box, for I believe $100. I bought one at the time, as did many collectors. I think there were at least 20 available at the time. There were also a couple yellow C-8's with the power nozzle that were also available. I know many people (collectors) who bought one at that time.
I put a modern high efficiency Lamb motor in mine, because the motor that came with it wasn't powerful enough to spin the turbine head under my carpet. The high efficiency motor did the trick. |

Tom, Do you happen to remember the part # or model # of this motor? I've got a DXL that needs a stronger motor. Let me know. Thanks! |
