WOW, I have used alot of those vacuums! I own that Oreck, I have the newer red Windtunnel, the blue one is a Tempo now, I have repaired some of those Eurekas, and friend of mine had that Panasonic upright, my family owned that Hoover Soft 'n Light, and my grandparents had the green caddy vac! Boy do I miss them. Thanks for posting! Don't you think that $100 is a bit much for an Elite, even new? |

Yeah made in USA was even a big deal then considering the Panasonic and Sharp vacuums shown there were made in Japan and Spain. |

The first version was on the market in 1987 - I bought one with chrome wands for my brother as a wedding gift. The Mighty Mite II (with the World Vac style tools) was on the market in 1997 - it had a very good German Miele style carpet/floor nozzle with a metal sole plate. What we see now in stores is actually the third version with that horribly useless combination dusting brush/upholstery nozzle, and a brushless carpet nozzle.

The scary thing about the Orecks is that these same models were still on sale for the same price when I managed an Oreck store in 2003! |

This does bring back memories. I worked for sears in 97, and got to use most of those vacs. I purchased the Windtunnel Supreme then and got it for less than 200.00 with my dicount, I also bought the turbo power 2000(aka futura) canister, I still have it,its at a friend's house I converted it to a PN vacuum. The windtunnel had a short and lasted 3months. I took it back for an Elite type turbo power cause they were out of the w/t...
