I saw one of these go up on Craigslist about 2 or 3 years ago in a rather rare bright red like most of the old dirt devils. This color variant doesnt seem too common for the first style visions. Though I also could've sworn I saw a machine at an office YEARS ago. Here's the common Maroon color.

Oh I believe it! This is definitely among one of Dirt Devils rarest, and I can confirm that it is real because I had it saved on my computer for quite some time because it was rather interesting! Much like how I had tried to find a rare Hoover elite model for the longest time, finally came across it again on Craigslist one day.

When I was growing up, my parents had the exact vacuum you ask about. Bright red and everything. They must’ve gotten it from Sam’s club because they love those club warehouses.
Since I got used to seeing that one so much, I always assumed that red was the standard color for that vac and that the marlins and blues were the rare ones. I guess it’s the opposite, because I can’t find even a picture of the bright red one. If you find one, please post a picture. It would be cool to see it again just for the nostalgia. |

Thats a cool childhood story, similar to my own actually. My mom had the maroonish red version of the Hoover Caddy Vac, which later turned out to be one of the more rarer variants of the machine. As opposed to the Purple and white colors.

Thanks for the link! Nope, thats not the one. It was a much older model, possibly from around 1999 or 2000. I saw it about two or three years ago on Kentucky's craigslist. This is definitely Dirt Devil's rarest machine, even moreso than the likes of the Ultra MVP, which there are 2 in almost great condition being sold off on eBay right now!!!!!
