Ah. A bit like Ford's legendary safety record with the Ford PINTO.

Only if FORD Pinto were a vacuum and not a car and then with a huge caveat.  Tho FORD Pinto had a long, storied and staried production and sales record it is not even close to ORECK's lightweight upright which, after almost 50 years, is still going strong.

If my vacuum can remove even one spec of dirt that yours misses, then mine is better than yours - even if there's no proof that mine would have picked up as much dirt as yours...

The thing is guys, it doesn't matter what Oreck makes these days that is truly "theirs," and truly someone elses designs. Take their commercial upright for example, its based on Sebo's BS 36/46 series commercial uprights and Oreck haven't been the first to put their name on someone else's model - they have a cordless upright vac in the UK at the moment, mini looking thing that is also a corded model, Chinese built and seen on UK shopping network cable channels. It is also a design that Electrolux are currently using and at the end of the day where vacs are concerned, if they are made in China/PRC you can bet that despite it carrying a recognisable brand name you might know, it could well be put out to pasture by other brands. CR reports are one thing and they will reflect the actual usage of the model in question rather than what the brand represents. I notice that Oreck also have an upright steam cleaner in the US and in the UK it isn't carried by Oreck here, but rather Chinese company Home-Tek, a brand you guys may not have heard of in the U.S. Home-tek products do work but their quality for the most part leaves a lot to be desired. Last year I purchased their red "Light N Easy," bagged upright. It's so like an old Oreck XL I was surprised that they didn't copy the high filter bag factors. You can see the Hometek here: http://www.shopwiki.co.uk/_Light+%27n%27+Easy+Vacuum+Cleaner?o=335110086&s=395589&


I've also noticed Sanitaire and other vacuums being relabeled as Orecks.  What Oreck, at least in the US, can sell is service after the sale.    David Oreck is a master salesman.   

The smart tyrant writes his own story to ensure that it is favorable.  The lazy will repeat lines from the book without fact checking.

SEVERUS:

David has passed the reigns of ORECK spokesperson over to his daughter in law Judy Oreck.  She is no David.  He is an industry icon.

HS:

In the case of David Oreck and all faces and/or names that are integrally associated with their business reputations and products there is a huge divide between integrity and con artistry.  The divide is years and years of reputable business sales and service.   The chasm is so wide there is no connection.  Like Lazarus in hell and the triumphant souls in heaven, never the twain shall meet.  Of course, for one like you to comprehend this notion of icon integrity, you have to know and follow the rules that govern the "right" side of the divide [read thruthful].   I suggest once again, if you haven't already, that you start by reading Jon Huntsman's book: Winners never cheat.
