The parts availability for this seem to be awful! the schematic I found on partswarehouse doesn't even break down the main canister it just shows it at one unit. I checked Essco.net which only had categories for a few pieces, no wheels to be found.
Other than finding a parts donor one possible hope for this unit might be 3d printing, I've worked with a local guy who does 3d scanning. so if you can find someone who does that and prints you may be able to get a reproduction made. Is it going to be as good as the OEM product? Probably not but when options are so limited it might do....

I think Hoover intended the entire unit to be replaced as one piece, no parts. This vacuum came out in...2006 I think? I agree on a 3D printed wheel as a fill-in until you find parts. There is an entire canister on eBay right now but it's $60 with nothing but the canister. Could swap all your hoses and bits to that model and use the missing wheel one you have now as a parts unit. |
