Rob, You will love that machine...I have the last model before the design change..it is my daily driver. It cleans well, quiet, good filtration. Your model is different in design, but the main difference is there is no longer a filter on the back with the air freshner where the motor vent is loctated. Happy Vacuuming!!! Morgan |

Rob, that is one nice looking machine! After using Morgan's Oreck at the convention last year as well as one that Greg had I have a whole new appreciation for them. Terry |

Rob, I too am becoming quite taken with the thoughtfulness and quality I see in your pictures of the Oreck XL. Something new, not just silly redesign for design's sake. Well, maybe the jodphur riding breeches bag poofs...and yet they look good and just right in that color combination. In manufacturing terms it does cost more per piece to cut bag shapes to provide those little bump-outs, because the bean counters will be seeing only waste material between patterns. Nice machine. I'll take a closer look next time I'm around one. Dave So, I'm curious...are the motor and fans housed inside the attractive low profile PN base then shoots the debris up the hollow handle into the double bag? |

Thanks for the other picture. It certainly does look sharp... and I'm glad it performs better than its predecessors! Does the switch turn the brush on and off or just change the motor speed? |
