Sometimes The motors just run hot. I used to go in my Electrolux branch frequently and on one occasion I had a power nozzle that kept shutting off and the top cover was very hot. I asked the repairman and he said it’s just a bad motor and it runs hot…we just replace the motors. So that could...

Thrift store shark rocket I stopped by my local thrift store for a quick look and saw a pretty decent Shark rocket stick vac there. They wanted $39. I did buy it because it worked when I tried it and the suction was low but the filter was …as I figured…packed. The power nozzle had virtually no...

I’ve noticed Some manufacturers offer their vacs in different colors. Shark sells the rocket in multiple colors and on qvc you could pick the color. I also see Miele offers the same model in a few colors. I always liked that manufacturers would make vacs in different colors. Style is another...

I love your reply… Suckolux…you think just like me! That reply to your bf is perfect! I do the same with my partner. Though he doesn’t ever comment on the amount of vacuums I have… my vacuum closet is not a closet he ever goes in as it is in the back of my personal office/den. We respect each...

More than just a Nice find! Certainly a nice collectible addition. Though I certainly see why these wouldn’t have been good sellers. Compare to the canister clearly much more cumbersome to use. Heavy and time consuming to convert to attachment mode like a Kirby. Even the ad for Electrolux...

I’ve always seem to have liked… The US Electrolux canisters. Between the ease of the swivel hose handles and the ease of use and versatility of the combination tools, the cogged tire cord reinforced power nozzle belts and the self adjusting nature of the power nozzles and finally the shape of...

Me too, I did a Eureka conversion too. An orange canister that belonged to someone who I cleaned for. The power nozzle was horrible on her Chinese rugs which were covering the shag carpet in her apartment . It stuck to the rugs something awful so I used an Electrolux combination rug and floor...

So little posts on these useful and convenient machines. My Sister has a roomba…it’s very loud and annoying to me…my Brother has a different brand of robotic vacuum and it is smooth and quiet like a Miele canister. I think I’d be open to getting one provided it’s not loud like the roomba but I...

We should also consider and look at Who is on the development and engineering teams of vacuum cleaners? Men or women? How many if so? I bet it’s more male than female. Men instinctively are creators and refiners of tools while women are more users and “doers”. Nature gave men more the nature...

Women are from Venus and men are from Mars Yep…this is why. I really think they think differently…generally..Now I have noticed something interesting….as a member of the gay community….some…not all…lesbians are more into fixing things more like men. Also we should take a notation of how...

I love and hate certain things about some vacs and vice versa on other vacs. Hence I’ve learned to adapt or swap parts or attachments to create better versions. This can involve mixing brands and styles and even use size adapters. If you’ve done the same…please share and post with photos too...

Yes it appears… The upright lime has been changed. The heavy duty model seems to have a rather high head meaning it less under furniture friendly…they seem to be aiming it at commercial users. The Lux lite seems to now be focused towards residential users. It would be better for them to...

I’ve always seem to have liked… The US Electrolux canisters. Between the ease of the swivel hose handles and the ease of use and versatility of the combination tools, the cogged tire cord reinforced power nozzle belts and the self adjusting nature of the power nozzles and finally the shape of...

And… You might even negotiate to have a tool caddy thrown in to sweeten the deal. There are Two types to choose from. The upright one which is a carry caddy and can house the tool from a Lux classic or the wall mount from the centralux which can house the tools from a Lux legacy or platinum...

Correction Djub85 stated the lux classic has no onboard tool storage, this is incorrect. There is onboard tool storage for the combination dusting brush and short crevice tool via clips on the top vent cover. Certainly not as “deluxe” on the legacy with its drop in system, but more along the...

Most reliable would be… The Lux classic over the guardian or Legacy. The Guardian has electronics and the plastic wands which can be a little less reliable than the original style ion the classic. The Lux Legacy also does have a circuit board I believe for its lights on the top panel…they are...

Anyone also notice… The new Aerus logo. Gone is the orange color in favor of blue…similar to the classic blue colors of the model XXX, LX,LXI, E, AE, 1205, Blue L, ultralux, Legacy and some ambassador models? Aerus needs to buy back the rights to the Electrolux name for use in the US since...

Hers why The EU’s hose first off looks like those old braided hoses that were notorious for leaking after 10 years and are stiff…the vinyl ones are a marked improvement. If they went back to the woven hoses too many people that know of those bad hoses would say forget it and not buy. Also that...

That handle Is the non electric hose handle that was used for the canister models starting with the model L and 1205’s in the early 70s and they continued used to use that handle design for numerous years and adapted it with the screw on ribbed fitting for the non electric upright hoses. The...

Hi Andy And welcome…always fun to see vacs from different countries…it’s like the cars too are often different. Would like to see your Electrolux models. Jon
