Hoover U7075

[texbodemer]

Out of curiosity, what can you guys tell me about my Hoover U7075 Commercial Vacuum?

It's a very good, strong

commercial upright. I have it in gray.

I'd love to see pictures

I'd love to see photos of a gray one

and, I think I'm getting a new bag for it, too.
A great machine

Any idea when this model was made?

I'm not near anything at the moment.

Nick,

Mine came from Vac-Way in Scranton. It just needs an overhaul and I'm getting a new bag. Tom Anderson has the whole line. I took photos of all of them.

I have about 6 'Commercial' cleaners.
Great machines, indeed.

Awesome!

I'd love to see more!

John Gregory, owner of Gregory's Sweeper Central in PA gave me the low down on the grey Commercial Model. It's from April of 1978. It has front tool conversion, which was the running change. Mr. Gregory is the reigning expert of all things Hoover. My friends and I will all be visiting him in June at his store.

Nick,

Here's the info straight from North Canton, Ohio.
Your cleaner, (colors are fireglow orange w/ almond raisin accents)There are 2 models. Model U7067 has a Type A bag, the other, not.



Then, the "gray" ones: 4 models (look identical) U7019 and U7021 1 has 2 brushes and a beater bar. The other: 1 brush, no beater bar.Then, U7039 and U7041, same idea of brushes and beater bars, but, plastic bases. After the gray, came the "red" one. Then, another cream model U7075 It has front tool conversion and a 50' cord The 1st orange model, 1979. There are numbers of models made. But, one cannot pinpoint the exact date of manufacture from those serial numbers.
I hope this helps.

I took a shot in the dark and just kept Googling "hoover" and "u7075" with random years attached, and after maybe 8 guesses I got lucky!

Found a newspaper ad from the Victoria Advocate from Victoria, TX from June 9, 1981 that mentions the U7075.

Here is the spec sheet for your U7075. Enjoy

Thanks!

Thanks!

Out of curiosity, when was that from? It looks like that test was from 1979. Also, any ideas why commercial vacuums are so often orange?

The spec sheets on the U7075 are from late 1979. The machine first appeared in early 1980.
