Here's another machine that didn't make the hot mess thread, it's Sears' Best Duo Power upright in Heather Green, model 3995. This I got from a sale in Maryland Heights in an older neighborhood and apparently the guy liked to be a picker and/or Mr Fix It as he had this and 4 other Kenmore canisters, 2 parts ones and 2 complete ones. I got the whole lot for $20 and this machine still runs great and has plenty of life left on the brush.

Loveit! You got, in my humble opinion, the best buy in vacuums at Sears!, to me no one else came close in value or performance!

Karl, these take 5015 bags which are NLA but I bought the last packs that Henry at Cross Keys near where I work had. Sears also had 5025 for the 72 and later Duo Powers but those are NLA as well. I'm not aware of any substitutes so to speak. And you are right that there was a PD Duo Power, that didn't show up until Fall/Winter '75 | ||
