I think this is late 1990s. This must be a BOL straight suction model. But I thought these were mostly sold in Canada.
It's odd how it has a rug/floor nozzle and also a Sears floating brush nozzle. I wonder if the floating brush nozzle was bought separately, since I remember Sears selling that rug nozzle as a replacement nozzle. CLICK HERE TO GO TO fan-of-fans's LINK on Tampa Craigslist |

I actually convinced two friends to get this model from Sears Canada (R.I.P.) when I lived in Toronto in the 1990’s. It was the only reasonably-priced, basic suction-only canister on the market at the time. It had all the basic features of an old fashioned canister vac: three separate normal on-board tools, large easy to find replacement dust bags, long hose and metal wands. I think it sold for $130 Canadian.
Nowadays, you can only really get such a basic bagged cleaner at vac shops for double the price. The versions my friends bought were Hunter Green, not Royal Blue. |
