I bought a Royal 10 amp machine from ebay Model 4000 i think? Burgundy with Classic silkscreen printing on bag.. anyways.. i was expecting to have a cool like, nice running vacuum to use. Well, it did look cool, Royal is my fav next to Kirby, and it cleaned BEAUTIFULLY.. but DANG!!!! TOOOO LOUD! Even my partner of the time complained about it being too loud, especially for the apartment we were in at the time.. Guess we were both just used to the growly, throaty sound of the Kirby... Needless to say.. i sold the Royal... hated to cut it loose. It looked so neat and cleaned so well, but.. couldn't handle the noise.. it sounded like she was one mad sister!!!! They have such a neat "antique" look to them though... hopefully i can find an older one eventually. My aunt had one from the 80's that i don't recall being nearly as loud...
