so youre the one who bought that one for 25 bucks in Connecticut. you have no idea how rare that is. that's the lowest production convertible ever made with 5000 units. i have the two penncrest versions. i find the cordreel cumbersome. people love them from a collectibility standpoint, but in everyday use theyre a pain with that reel.

I wonder why Hoover put the upper cord grasper on the front of the handle. Eureka’s Cordaway uprights had the grasper on the side. It was actually a pleasure to use - you just squeezed up the metal retainer plate, and guided the cord into the upper slot. In the 20 years my parents owned their 2083 Rugulator/Cordaway upright, the cord reel never broke. Mom loved it!
