Very nice Kenmore!

I spy a FilterQueen Defender in the background in the bottom picture. It is missing the charcoal filter. If you need one, I can get them for you. My FWP FilterQueen office can ship!!

Hope you love your Defender! I think they are WONDERFUL!!!

That is exactly the one I have been looking for.  Enjoy it.

Nice! My folks had that exact model when I was a kid; the 9 foot hose was a nice touch. Too bad precious few newer canisters do that.
