Nice find Sam! That's my favourite Decade 80 and the nicest of the Decade series IMO. I actually found the same model at Goodwill a few weeks ago. It was filthy and the bag was so full that it felt like a brick. Plus, the decals on the base were scratched up. But,for $7.50 what can I expect. Anyway, Congrats!

Thanks Stephen,
I felt it was worth the price, with the decals still all intact an dthe bag looking so good.
I agree with you that it is the nicest of the Decade series too, I love the light green.

Well,
My Decade 80 finally came today. it is model U-4381-030
it looks nice, has some peeling on the decal on the sides and both bulbs need replaced.Otherwise it is great, very quiet and I love the power surge.

A great cleaner

I have a green one, and 2 decade 800s gray. I bought one years ago to use in a church. Was a fab vac.Prob the last of the Convertibles, or almost.
