They have very sharp upper corners. In looks I mean, they couldn't cut anything.

I have one of those! Belonged to my Aunt, and I got it when she and my Uncle moved into assisted living.

Kenmore sold a very similar looking vacuum that for years I thought was made for them by Westinghouse. Then I saw one on ebay and the Kenmore manufacturers code was 116, meaning either Birtman Electric or maybe Whirlpool made it for Kenmore. There was a roll around model like this and one mounted on a cart with places to hang attachments, cord and hose. Tom Gasko had one of the cart mounted ones when he had his museum if my memory is not completely fried.
