Well… I had thought about that but the building is small…4 low pile carpeted offices about the size of bedrooms and tile in a kitchen and a big great room and a foyer area. Also there will likely be a weekly housekeeper who will be required to bring his/her own vacuum and so this is just in...

My suggestion Any of the square bodied Electrolux beginning with the 1205 and use the charcoal filter inserts you can get for the bag compartment. They only filter correctly on those models the older rounder models have slots all over inside the bag compartment and the charcoal filters won’t...

Hmm Anything is possible…the clear one in my AF just seems newish. When I got the vac it also had a replacement genuine cord with it. On my model G the switch base is black. I may be able to figure out why I’m having intermittent issues with the switch…it seems to be a relatively simple...

Well… With your extensive and jealous worthy collection…you could probably compare motor tone and tell. If it’s got an Olympia era motor it eill sound similar to other Olympia’s and Super J’s and Silverados but if it has the Marquise era motor it will sound much like that Marquise the daughter...

Funny So funny! When I saw my Mom’s Olympia manual in her drawer with other manuals I had to sneak a peek at it and inside was a newspaper clipping of a sale ad from the local Electrolux dealer in Bayonne, NJ where my Aunt who bought the machine lived advertising the Olympia on sale for $399...

Very nice…. I think this is by far my favorite color collection of Electrolux including Aerus with the Golden Jubilee/Super J coming in second and I’m tied on the Silverado and White Aerus series for third. I also like the Marquise coloring and pleased that I have a pristine condition one. I...

Yes The model S while desirable for the convenience of its light weight but also was not power nozzle compatible and that made it less desirable. I know what you mean with the power nozzles. It’s always nice to have one that looks good instead of beat up. That gray metallic paint though is a...

Better colors…. For the Aerus Lux Legacy and Lux Classic. That black and dark gray is so drab and hideous to me. The platinum is now charcoal and white. I don’t need white per se…perhaps two tone peppier grays like the Silverado series had. They seem to have exhausted the coloring scheme...

Thanks for the tip On this store. I live in Dallas and donate stuff to Goodwill and Habitat for a humanity but not of fan of donating to Goodwill so looking for a better place to donate so I’ll give this place a try and always fun to run through these stores to see if there’s any good finds...

Electrolux Olympia wanted I see you have a bunch of Olympia’s (Brown and Cream Automatic Control Electrolux’s.)I have a Silverado delux e but the motor is dead and could pair up a decent Olympia with my Silverado’s hose and attachments if you have one whose motor works well and body is in...

My partner bought a small office suite for his company he started a while ago and is growing rapidly and wanted a suggestion for a vac to equip the building with. There is a lot of tile floors and low pile office carpet. I suggested the current Shark rocket duo clean corded model from Costco...

Well the time has come…Mom’s Electrolux model S has finally bit the dust this past summer. The motor sounds really bad and runs slow and also smells bad. I didn’t chuck it right away but considered it. Well tonight I was using the early White Electrolux model L in the basement and I heard a...

That’s the latest rebuilt machine I’ve ever seen I’m not sure when they stopped remanufacturing machines, thought it was in mid 80’s but clearly this was the Marquise era which was 1988. I wonder what motor is inside the machine…an Olympia motor or a Marquise motor? The Olympia motors are far...

I like that model It’s based on the sidekick and should work the same but it is a bit bulkier with the fan added and the dust bag. They sell for $20 or more on eBay so definitely a good thrift store value. Great for stairs so you don’t have to haul the canister up onto a staircase. I feel it...

I wonder if… You actually enclose your check for the amount listed if they will actually send you a package of Res got to be some grandma out there that would do that! They may actually still honor those old envelope prices! I’d think it would be easier to just send the bags than send back the...

I really love… The coloring on your genuine rebuilt model G by the way…I always felt the gray rebuilt G’s look so good in the hammered gray paint with the gray bumpers/handle etc. it goes beautifully with the shiny polished aluminum. Since I couldn’t change the teal blue bumpers and handle and...

Did they have switches? I’m wondering if they had replacement switches? If so I’d like to get one or two. My Mom’s Aerus dealer told me they no longer make the switches and the one on my G sometimes doesn’t work but if I switch it a few times it comes on and then is fine for a while. I have an...

Here is some help For the Olympia hose…(we have the same model)….you can go to an Aerus dealer and get a new genuine hose it will work perfectly. You can look on eBay for a used genuine hose, just make sure you get the correct one with the two prongs on the machine end. To tell genuine from non...

Accessories The pic you posted would be about right for what would have been included with this model. Upgrade options would be the combination rug and floor tool to replace the single sided floor tool you have so you can clean delicate rugs without using the power nozzle. All Electrolux...
