Here is a nice vac that I got a few weeks ago, when I received it, it STUNK of must and it had none of the attachments.
I gave it a full clean up an managed to track down some tools for it, the correct ones. I got it a brandnew hose too as I could not get the must smell out of the old one and as it was a clear hose it had all gone yellow. The new hose I bought for it is a stair reach hose, originally it did have a stretch hose, however it was not a stair reach stretch hose...If that makes any sense!
I bought it a new brushroll as these have a habit of going noisy over time, and of course, new bags, belt and filters, strangely, the exhaust filter is only accessible by removing the motor housing cover, it does not have a little flap like other models did.
I only paid £9.99 for the vac it's self but spent about £80 on it all together! It was worth it though as it looks the part now, and is a fantastic cleaner, it looks very striking too!
The only reason they sold it was because it had "no suction" when I first turned it on, the bag door sucked right in, I was like RIIIIGHT and turned it off, I found that there was a blockage in the hose fill tube thing, that was the only thing stopping it working fully.
Well, anyway, when the delivery guy came to the door, I immediately thought that the seller could of packaged it better, I did say to the Parcelforce guy "there is no guessing what that is!" which gave him a chuckle.

Sorry it is on it's side, but that is the way it is on the machine.
