Hope you read this, might need to retake it in day light lol

Hi Tony, Thanks for posting about this machine, we have them here in Australia made in NZ which is interesting considering that the glen waverly Victoria factory was still making Electrolux canister vacuums, we have a red Volta named the red devil very similar in appearance but more updated...

I need to amend my previous post ( slightly ) add the fact that the Hoover constellation was a very popular vacuum here in Australia still probably the upright convertible was Hoovers most popular, and it seems like the celebrity was no where near as popular but it might also be the fact that...

My mum had the convertible, yellow in colour cma cord same as the celebrity, unfortunately we kids kept her busy replacing belts , I can still smell the smell of the burning rubber lol, those upright convertible vacuums really did a great deep clean for the day and the simplest of designs most...

I must say I remember most of these vacuums in Australia, the classic had the power on light here from memory, it was just manufactured after the navy blue and white version which I have forgotten the model number sorry, same variant other than colour update, it’s very interesting that Australia...

Hi to all the vintage vac enthusiasts here, I thought I share my experience of Electrolux Aus built vacuum cleaners made in glen waverly Victoria, this one has always been my favourite ( probably boring to most) the 1970s automatic model 331 $156 in 1976 still in use paper bag inside cloth bag...
