@rednes800 They did, for some time. There was a modern, stainless steel version available until fairly recently. You can probably still find one on Ebay.
i think the new ones are pretty quiet. you hear more of wooshing sound like countkostaki says. they also have a motorized power head now which makes them better at grooming carpets.
They are much quieter than the traditional Constellation - more like a "whooshing" sound. The Constellation has the exhaust outlet just as a offset exit hole to one side of the underside of the cleaner. The new Sattelite ones have air exhaust holes all around the underside making it far superior floatation.
I have the updated model - it's made by Hoover-Maytag and they call it the Sattelite. It's 2000watts - but apart from being black and stainless steel in design it's exactly the same as your one. I hope it will last just as long as the one you have! Good to see you keep it in working order.

We used to have one of these until the motor on it burnt out. :-( I like the way it 'floats' along the floor.
.....If you had a longer power cord on it and took it to an Ice Rink, you could do Curling with it. :-D

Yep, it was part of the design for the Constellation series.

2000 Watts !! Are you sure? No wonder it floats, it should be capable of flight with that sort of power..:)

LOL yes I am sure. It is extremely powerful (but that is what 50 years or so of modernisation does for you).
