This is an extremely easy-to-install part that significantly strengthens the handle of any Oreck Upright Vacuum Cleaner. Installation of this part (2 screws) reinforces the Oreck handle at what would otherwise be the weakest point, and turns the flimsy "handle attachment point" into a sturdy & robust connection; providing increased strength, sturdiness, & durability to the handle of Oreck Upright Vacuums. This part comes installed on Commercial Oreck vacuums from the factory, but is not present on most Residential Oreck vacuums. For under $20, you can install this small upgrade on ANY Oreck Upright vacuum & noticeably increase the strength of your Oreck's handle. I especially recommend this part to anyone who regularly lifts or carries their Oreck Vacuum by the Handle, because that's what causes the most strain to the connection point where the two halves of the handle join together. - This part is specifically designed to strengthen that connection point. In conclusion, for anyone who owns an Oreck Vacuum & wants to make it last longer - this is a *MUST-HAVE UPGRADE*... The fact that it's less than $20 and installs with only two phillips-head screws makes this a *NO-BRAINER* upgrade for your Oreck Vacuum(s). If your Oreck Vacuum didn't come with the handle brace installed from the factory - BUY ONE OF THESE! YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!Read full review

I had to replace the handle tube once already because it cracked, and now the second one broke. I was going to buy a new tube again but then I saw this brace. I decided to try the brace because it's less than half the price of a new tube. I put it over the cracked tube and it makes the handle strong again! What else I learned: I'm sure my handles were cracking because the vacuum had become super hard to push over carpeting. This turned out to be because the bristle roller was worn out. I replaced the roller too and it works like a dream again. Also, I can't tell you why the picture shows 3 screws. It comes with the 2 you need and it isn't rocket science to put it on.

I did not know of this product until my Oreck handle broke and I was searching for a replacement. This product seems it will prevent future breakage on my new handle.

I had this fitted in no time however the screws supplied are far too long and the ones removed arent long enough once the brace is in place. I managed to find a couple that would fit but apart from that annoyance it seems ok.

The brace compensates for a poorly designed handle. My Oreck cleaner works perfectly but was becoming unusable as the handle joint detoriated. The problem is a design fault and Oreck should have fitted the brace or similar support from new. Vaccum now as good as new.
