Being in a "Hooverless" home situation as the bearing is going out on my Dail-A-Matic, I was thinking of seeking out a Convertible.
Other than such obvious quality changes over the Convertible's long run, Why do many of the Hoover experts seem to to favor the model 1070 and 1076 Convertibles?
I can easily see many of the "cosmetic" changes over the long run like:
(1) removing the hand grip
(2) using generic looking white cord sets
(3) using cheaper 1/2 furniture guards
(4) going to all plastic bases
(5) cheaper name plates
(6)change from metal to plastic bottom plate
(7) removing the beater bars
(8) going to two piece handle
(9) removing the famous Hoover BEAT AS IT, AS IT SWEEPS, AS IT CLEANS from the bottom plate.
(10) going from Hoover flip switch to slide on/off control
(11) slide on automatic attachment converter to manual front load converter
(12) separate hose and converter to one piece set
(13) plastic storage bag from tool caddy with attachment uses printed on the side
(14) shorter attachment hose
(15) changing from the original designer hood to the later more boxy
design
(16)going from bottom fill to type a C bag to top fill system
So why is the 1060 and 1076 favored? Thanks
What would be the preference of the models 1070 or 1076 over a model 69 for example?
