Oreck 40th Anniversary Edition 3600HH

[oreckboy]

Hi Vacuum Land! This is my first forum on this website. Also I am new to Vacuum Land! Recently, I was searching eBay for an Oreck that I had in my childhood. It was an Oreck XL 3600HH. I found this Oreck for about $60 and thought it was a good deal, seeing that most of them sell for about $75-$100. So I am asking if this is a good deal for me to buy.

Thanks!

Welcome to Vacuumland! I'm happy to see another Oreck fan here. Please post some pictures of your collection when you get the time.


 


I found the listing you posted a picture of I would not recommend purchasing this Oreck. It looks very dirty and would need to be completely restored, which would cost more than the machine is worth.  Here is another listing of the exact same model. This is the only XL2 I see in good shape under $100. $70 is market price, plus this one seems to have an upgraded metal brush-roll.

bagintheback, thank you so much for your help. It's nice to know that someone else out there likes Orecks. Everyone on YouTube always says bad things about them. I seem to like them though.

I have 2 Orecks for sale

I plan to post pics soon. One is an upright, and the other is a car vacuum. In the "House of HOOVER". YIKES!!!! But, they are not in the main house. They are stored in one of the basements. "Basement placements".
