A Darwinian extinction

I have the blue one in the middle of that picture, and although I appreciate its style and design, I can easily see why the Dial-a-Matics were discontinued: they were very loud, their dust bags were fairly small (especially when compared to the Hoover top-fill "A" bags) and, worst of all, they were heavy! I imagine many women gladly threw them away in favor of the lighter, cheaper units that came later.
