Is that blue power nozzle in the ebay link above the one that would go with my blue Royal pot canister?
 
The local Miele dealer was a Royal dealer a while back and I can remember being told something about the motor issues. They know what they are talking about so I'd belive it.
 
Royals.

In my area Royals are rare. My mother has an Electro Hygiene (Royal Upright) that is 26? years old and still great. I hate the process of putting the belt on the shaft, but it's a darn good vacuum. I saw a blue canister once in a vacuum store. They look fantastic, but seem so rare. How do they compare with Electroluxes of the same vintage in terms of quality and performance (Electrolux seemed to be king of the canisters)? How many inches can a Royal canister pull?

Awesome looking vacuum,
Dave
 
Logan, WOW what a great Royal canister!

Love that color....The power nozzle looks like a good performer....but that hose is really nice....how long is it?

One of my biggest pet peeves are canisters, with short hoses, nipping at your heels while you vacuum! LOL
 
Hose

I just measured the hose and it's 10 foot. :-)

YouTube: I'm camera shy...trust me!
 
I have a Royal tank just like the one pictured-and a couple others.Truely GREAT machines-about the most powerful canister out there-but a disadvantge of these machines-their jet engine like exhaust!it can blow stuff around in the room-or dust that you haven't picked up.and YOU MUST use the yellow multilayer bags in these machines--the single layer bags the powerful suction of these vacs pulls the dust RIGHT THROUGH the bag!But these vacuums are FAR BETTER than the "Frozen Turkey" plastic canisters made by TTI Royal today.One vac shop I bought one of these machines from says the motor is the same as used in some central vacs.Now if an exhaust-diffuser can be made for these-than PERFECT!Another person I knew of used one the these in her home cleaning service.Long Live the ROYAL TORPEDO vacuum!

I hear you on the jet engine like exhaust. I have a Metropolitan Professional compact series, and it too has the jet engine exhaust. It's lightweight and very portable, and its all metal construction is a bonus as compared to the plastic crap that everyone uses today. But, as you say, if it's pointed at the coffee table, anything that's on top gets blown off.

Jet Engine Exhaust

It's fun to point the vacuum at kittys to see their reaction! ;-)
 
I would think the jet blast from the Royal would send the cat airborne!As I pointed out its too bad Royal discontinued these machines and they didn't make an exhaust "diffuser for them.the exhaust is the blower port-you can put the hose on it and have the ULTIMATE dry filtered air blower-better than an air compressor for blowing things.One vac dealer I knew of used the Royal "Torpedo" as a blower to dry Electrolux fans and fan housings after washing them.Spent many afternoons helping him.
