How about Bissell when they came out with the PowerGlide bagged uprights and ProLite?

The Powerglide machines came out in 2001. The ProLite...I read in an article YEARS ago that it was released in 1999 (but I do not have proof). |

This might say it all what Eureka was doing in 2000.

Didn't IONA started assembling Fantoms in the states at the time? I know they did but wasn't sure when though.
Riccar and Simplicity weren't exactly better back then at least in the year 2000. They've made some improvements over the years and later expanded. The only thing I can think of that were better back then are the paper disposable bags, the new ones today don't filter as well but thankfully we now have cloth bags. |

You're not wrong there. In the year 2000, Electrolux was still Electrolux, meaning Eureka didn't take over the Swedish side and Aerus didn't take over. |

Actually Eureka (and Sanitaire) were owned by Electrolux AB since 1974. But in 2000, Aerus LLC formerly known as Electrolux Corp. USA, sold the Electrolux naming rights back to Electrolux AB and later renamed the company Aerus in 2004. But before the transfer was completed, there was a time when both companies teamed up and produced a commercial upright called a Sanitaire VPS in either red or black.
