    Help!

    For the second time, I have ordered a new hose on eBay for my Model L vacuum cleaner and have received the wrong hose. The connector doesn't insert into my vacuum because it has two unmovable tabs on either side that will only insert into the 1205 and newer cleaners. The sellers list the hoses...

    Sad Little Electroluxes

    Seriously The second vacuum looks like it was pulled out of the mud at the bottom of the Mississippi River. Look at the filth on that power nozzle!

    Sad Little Electroluxes

    Newly Acquired Elux Model L

    Update! The Model L you see in the picture at the top of this thread is exactly how I found it...although aside from some visible scuffs, it had some other issues I needed to fix as well. (It gave off a VERY musty odor when running, and it also made a whining sound). Last night, ambition got...

    Newly Acquired Elux Model L

    Impressive! Your Model L and 1205 look pristine! The "aqua" blue machines were always my favorite. My mom had a gold Super J that my dad bought for her as a "housewarming gift" when our new house was built in 1977. At the young age of four, I remember hanging on every word that the Electrolux...
