The Hoover Junior was restyled in 1967, and launched as a deluxe model to supplement the 1334. Mechanically it was identical, and the price premium was justified on the new styling alone. This situation lasted until the introduction of the Hoover Junior 1354 in 1969, a model with some extra features, and the 1334 model was dropped. The cleaner on this page is a very early 1346, with a pumpkin orange front fan cover. This was replaced by a brown cover soon after it hit the market, and there are at least four different versions of the 1346. It was replaced in 1970 by the 1346a, which had a four-position carpet height adjuster and a different colour scheme (pistachio green and white from 1970-72, and then navy blue and white from 1972-75). Various special editions were built in the late 1970s, but the 1346 type machine was replaced in 1975 with the U1012, a cleaner with an easier to empty dustbag but otherwise little different from its predecessor. The 1346 on this page is actually two separate machines combined, but is overall in good condition. Both machines were sourced from Ebay. |
