    Looking for Hoover Dimension 1000 parts

    Hi Everybody! This is my first post on here. My grandmother asked that I take her Hoover Dimension 1000 canister vac in to be repaired after it lost power and the guy at the shop said he couldn't get the parts for it anymore. He said I would need either the retractable cord reel or the control...
