Not quite a vacuum cleaner, but hopefully allowed on this forum.

Thanks for the link. It's always fun to see color brochures and catalogs of vintage appliances. Vacuumland includes polisher-scrubber-shampooers postings, so no worries; they're just not as popular to collectors as vacuum cleaners.
In case you're unaware, the shampoo-polisher in the brochure is model 5464, and its in 2-tone Porcelain Blue. The contemporaneous US model 5460 and Canadian model 5462 were identical in styling. The UK also offered a Porcelain Blue-colored polisher-scrubber, model 5134. Both UK models were made in several successive colors until around 1974; whereas the US and CA used different model numbers for color changes until 1967 when the shape of the hood was redesigned.
All three countries also manufactured identical stick vacs in 2-Tone Porcelain Blue around the same time. The UK's was the Hooverette, model 2944; the US's was the Lark model 2940, and CA's was the Lark, model 2942. I think the US and CA imported theirs from the UK.
You're welcome.

Back in the good ole days when this scrubber was good enough. Now a Rug Doctor that you rent from Home Depot is barely good enough. Wow have times have changed.
