Over 14 years ago we received an old Oreck XL rack from my wife's grandmother. Since then I've been working on the old oscillator. This year it has completely enlarged and the traction end has separated from the wood veneer. We bought this replacement and were very impressed with the construction and materials. It was also great to have 6 new belts. I hope this one lasts as long as the original. If so, it will take forever to overcome.
