2062 D ESP Works good

Great groomer sweepers

Still the 6.5 amp is a bit louder
think I like the 5.5 sound better

Wondering about the dates on these things


Had most of it apart
but couldn't get dial a nap knob off to left the cover
darn
well did my best on it & blew it out

Has sort of a star shaped screw?
I had 2 star tools but none big enough

Definitely a takeoff of Hoover

Can see similarities to the 63
but that lovely has a screwed on hood
not spring loaded
But that was the 50's

Alas they sure could build em back them.

We;ve come so far to go backwards!

Christine,
That is a nice Eureka. It is from the 1908's maybe even to early 90's I remember they had them at K-Mart with that bag pattern in different colors into early 90's.
The Hoover Belts work even though they are a little smaller. That is what I use because I have more convertibles and it is easier buying one less part.
I love mine too I just got the ESP Boss which is the version of this from the mid-late 90's it's great except for cheap plastic handle.
As for your dilemma on having too many vacuums and not enough floor space I keep different vacuums in each room and I use a different one every day when I vacuum.
Hope you enjoy your new find.
 
I got eureka belts

99 cents store

2 for $1

Can;t go wrong

Actually seems to be as same as the hoover 48 belt but
the eureka is not as stretchy

go figure!

Maybe it doesn't look like it but spent 5 hours cleaning it

This morning I took it for a spin
fluffed & ate up gremlins in the carpet

takes fng bags
which I have
had the belt.

I got too many with Gv & filter queen on the way

LOL

I'll probably trade it or sell it but

I couldn;t leave that poor ESP in the goodwill
Poor tortured vac in its state of need

I don't mind some dirt & time to help bring a good vac back to being useful

Looks like original belt was on it
They used it til the hair got so thick it pushed the belt into the base plate so it wouldn't spin
even then it tried burning rubber....

Then they tossed it

OOOh the vacmanity

They aren't Kirby's or old Hoovers
but they got a nice metal brushroll & really do suck & fluff carpet
