I cannot find any information about this machine being in the US anywhere. I know these were very popular in the UK, but whats up with this thing being in the US? It is complete and i have everything for it.

At one time beleive Home Depot or Lowes sold these Vax shop vacuums.It was some home center many years ago-saw them there.Maybe it was the short lived "Channel" home centers that were in the Wash DC area to compete against Hechingers.

That Vax vacuum even looks unused!!Quite unusual for a shop type vacuum-usually when you find them they are beat to near death.
