1974 Eureka PowerTouch Cordaway Upright Vacuum Cleaner........Model 2082

An examination of my very nice TOL Eureka vacuum cleaner from 1974, including the two speed option, the PowerTouch Hand grip, a look at the Rugulator, how nicely it vacuums and etc. A fun and quirky machine that Im very proud to own...

I just love that Eureka Chad, watching you use yours is almost as fun as me using mine. Its great how these Eurekas work so well, yet are such a ritzy looking fashion statement.

Hey Sam,

Glad that you like the vid. I agree that these machines were very ritzy looking for the time period, and really did the job as intended. I should be putting up more here in a few weeks....

Thanks Rob. I love it too. I have to say that out of all my uprights it IS the most useful as it still can be repaired if need be. I use it from time to time to keep it nimble and so forth. thanks for the comment

I have a Eureka 2385a in moss green with the cordaway and power touch that has been in my family since new. I have a huge problem I need help with. I need to know if anyone would know where I could get the original box top outer vinyl bag regardless of cost. I would like to restore the vacuum back to like new original but I need as much help as possible from anyone on what to do. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jeff

Hey Chase,

I have to say that I have had several of the model that oyu have and just this ont TOL that I have now. It was literally found for me and purchased for a price by another collector that was so good to give it to me as I did nto have a Cordaway Eureka at the time. It's one of my most favorite uprights, and I am very fortunate to have it. One thing I can tell you is.....there are more to be had. Just be patient and keep looking!!!
