Nice find! So I guess it is based on *something*, though I cannot find an hgtv article that talks about this corded version of the vacuum, and that's the source it's claiming to use.
Maybe it's merging its knowledge of the corded version with the cordless version mentioned in the article.

Yeah, probably. It's a subtle but obviously relevant distinction and probably difficult for the model given both products have the same name (which I suspect isn't that common).
I think it is probably more common than people think. I think it happens all the time. As an example, my Samsung tablet has the exact same name as a previous version. The only distinction is that it has a date listed with it for the year of release. I know this because looking up information on it requires you to specify the date as most articles about it, or forum posts asking for help addressing issues use the date signifier and not the specific model ID. Same with my phone. It is a specific Kyocera model, but subtle distinctions make it hard to find the right information if you don't know exactly what you are looking for.
The same is true of the Bard JWST fact, which articles have been presenting as completely and utterly invented, but in fact the NASA website says that JWST took the first "direct" images of an exoplanet - it just omitted the word "direct". (Credit to Marco Fonseca who pointed this out on Twitter https://twitter.com/MarcoVFonseca/status/1623685670203019266). There is normally some basis for these weird claims but it's not always possible to tell from the sources what they are (and the AI doesn't "know" that what it's claiming is totally different).
I also tried out some of Bing's pre-programmed questions including one about car models, and the recommended models appeared nowhere in the articles that the AI was citing. The info may have been correct, but I don't know where it was from. Does the AI just invent a likely reference, too?
