That is truly a beautiful vacuum, I love the look of torpedo shaped vacuums yet its one shape of vacuum I dont own due to the fact that I haven't found one in SA yet.

Nice colour too.

Its just a pity that it would cost 3 times the buy it now price to send to SA or I would have seriously considered buying it.

Have one like that-no hose or tools-just the machine-came from Mr Cotton-the fellow here in town that buys up the plastic bagless and low cost vacuums that come from trade in piles-was fun going thru his house he no longer lives in-was damaged from the Floyd floods.That is where the Universal I have was discovered-Joe Cotton said I should have come BEFORE the flood-He was saying "If you collect old vacuums-I used to have lots of them-the flood washed them away."The Universal I have does run,and there is suction.
