Been a long time reader but never really posted! Just sharing a pic of a Hoover Dimension I picked up today. It’s my first Elite style machine. While it was pretty dirty, the fan seems to be in good shape and neither of the motor brackets were cracked. The brush roll bearings came back to life with some cleaning and greasing. It is a very loud machine but not in the unpleasant high pitched way of some newer cleaners. The main motor bearings do need to be greased but aren’t too far gone yet either. I do have the hose but I am missing all but an extension wand as far as accessories go. I suppose they will come with time. Just as an FYI, the Dirt Devil Style 4/5 belts seem to work decently well on this machine. Had to find something close at Wal-Mart for testing ha!

That one is pretty elusive too! Definitely among the more uncommon with the preferred bag housing and the caddy vac powerhead. Most likely sold around the same time as the Dimension above so circa 2002-2003. One of the very last elites with the 12 amp motor before they were discontinued altogether from residential use in 2004.

Thanks for your reply! It's neat to know about some similar machines. I took a photo of the label for you. It appears that this machine was made in October of 2003. From what I understand, it's one of the last Elite style machines for the household market.
