First of a large haul! Does anyone have any info on this? I picked it up on Nextdoor for $10. The only issues were a broken strain relief and a single crease in the bag door from the suction imploding it. I have only seen one other like it, and it was the deluxe model with the slider on the head. Was the a commercial edition or something? It just says 7.2 amps on the head, nothing else.
Thanks!

I've got the Deluxe model of this. The one you saw might've been mine. There was one heavy duty commercial model made of this, with no headlight. This is the third time I've seen a dirt devil with this type of color scheme. Recently on my trip, there was a Dirt Devil Upright soft bagged with that color scheme NIB.

I believe this was the model that was sold in Costco (Price Club) at the time. |

The 7.2 is a 1 speed motor. There are no dirt sensor on these red and black models. I don't know if this is the same as other Uprights, but the 7.2 amp motor is an AmTek Lamb motor. It is relatively quiet. It's loud, but doesn't scream so it sounds quiet. At least it does in my head. I'll attach a picture of mine. I've also got a couple of eBay listings with my Upright Deluxe in the background. Mine has the Edger.
