Hi folks, does anyone have a copy or can you take snaps of the User's Manual for this machine? I understand the bags are rare, but a Eureka V bag works? Please advise.

My grandmother bought one new for me when I was six. I currently have two. Nice machine but loud. Yes eureka style V bags will work.

Thanks for sharing that picture. Did you know you would like vacuums from that young age? Remember, I started late with a Westinghouse canister that had been my parents. I posted a picture of its ROUGH state. It has since been really refined. |

@ Fantomfan57 Yes, I remember liking vacuums early on. At first my parents and grandparents thought it was cute. I remember getting an early model Regina Housekeeper around 1989, Hoover Slimline and the pictured Singer. I saw a burgundy colored one on Facebook marketplace a couple of weeks ago. I wasn’t even aware there was one. |

Hi - that was the top of the line at the time - 1991-1994 The next machine down from it was the SL-800C (which can be seen on my website - second from the bottom of the page - smithcollection.altervista.org/si...) With the differences being the hose handle and the cover on the accessory storage. My apologies for not posting the picture with this but I am not at home so don't have access to the ones saved and this doesn't seem to accept copy and paste.
