Vacuum Exposition Episode 51: The 1978 Kenmore Magicord Canister

[@graysonsvacsandmowers5426]

I love the faux wood trim on these older 70s and early 80s Kenmore canisters. Nice to see one in original condition that works top notch.

Thank you Karl & River for an interesting and informative Sears Kenmore Magicord Canister video! The hose and Power Mate pn are similar to a Eureka's hose & Root-Matic pn. I believe there was also a green Magiicord - not sure if it was sold concurrently or at another time. I wonder if Sears used different color schemes for different trim levels. Please consider including some close-up stills of your cleaners, their ratings plates/decals/stamps, and attachments in future vids.

Oh yes! I can definitely start including info about ratings and decals! The Sour Apple Green set came out the year before in 1977. I have some of that set as well and we’ll do another video on them too! Thank you for the suggestions and comments!

@@Konstellation_Karl_55 You're welcome for the suggestions. Thank you for your replies! It would be fun to see a comparison video of the Sour Apple Green & blue Magicords!

That's not the original hose that goes to it. Eureka and Kenmore never use the same hose actually if you look at the ad that he just showed you would see the correct hose that was on that Kenmore Canister

We had this Kenmore Canister we had the brown and beige Kenmore Canister and this was also the same color as that power ease self-propelled upright from the same year.

Hey just to let you know I actually have the attachments and the tool caddy that would fit the if you're interested. I have it listed on eBay

[@markrich7693]

Must of been since the first concept lines of vacuum cleaners by Hoover came out at the time loved the video

[@Konstellation_Karl_55]

Thank you!

[@paco3343]

Have you considered asking the vac shop where you got the Magicord to contact the previous owner for any attachments and the owner's manual?

[@Konstellation_Karl_55]

Oh that’s a great idea! I’ll reach out to him and see if he has their contact info and if they still have the remaining bits :)

They also come with a tool caddy that's made specifically for this canister cuz I actually had this canister growing up as a kid and my mom kept the attachments
