While Eureka is known for its "Types" (successive changes and/or upgrades beginning with Type A), it's uncommon for the same model to have several different color schemes; instead the differences are often other features such as the brush roll, motor amps, and bag cover. The model 2010, which...

Most likely & yes

I suspect that the aqua floor polisher-scrubber is a President (going by what I saw at Doug's website). Fyi, here is what I located online about the company: President's Role: The President Vacuum Cleaner Company, also known as State Vacuum Stores, was not directly involved in the invention...

You bet! That model was sold until around 1990 according to newspaper ads, so it must have been a good seller.

Gotcha. I got mine at a library book sale that was sold independently from the set. Interesting back story; I was aware of dinnerware set offers based on $ amount of groceries purchased but not other items.

You're welcome.

I know you have to those who use this website. I'm unsure if that person is one of them. Maybe you know something I don't. I get ignored sometimes, too, along with other contributors that are popular; so I take it lightly. I do try to steer those who are seeking parts and machines in your...

I have seen other such international models, too. It may be that these were private label Electrolux machines with some unique features or that the patent had expired allowing other companies to produce similarly-designed models. See some at Doug Smith's Canadian website...

You're welcome, Wilson. That sure is nice of you to help that lady. I searched the Vacuumland archives and found this 2019 thread that may give you some ideas while you wait for someone else to respond: https://vacuumland.org/threads/filter-queen-motor-issue.37998/

Hi, I've attached a Electrolux Lexan tank cord winder schematic that may help you figure it out. The spring (#2) is called the drum, and #10 is the drum assembly. Be safe; others have mentioned the danger involved if the spring's tension is accidentally released. I have had no experience...

Welcome, Wilson! I'm unable to help with your motor but just wanted to say hi and wish you well in your FQ motor mission.

I was hoping you'd reach out to the guy whose website I linked to, Jimmy. I would have done so but forgot about it after my post. I'll bet he would have been interested.

Thanks for the title, Jeff. I neglected to cite that in my photo caption as I typically do, and my copy (I only have the one volume) is in storage; I used an old photo.

Yours was likely a model-type 1756-B if your family purchased it in 1983 with the later powerhead. You're correct that it lacked the Cordaway.

It's likely a 1774 as the 1775 was white. Here's a portion of my list showing all the 1770s:

You're welcome, Santi. If I were you, I'd try stripping a small area with a B-8 (or other vintage polisher-scrubber) to determine whether it would be up to the task then go from there. You could contact Aerus to get its opinion and to inquire what pads they would recommend or just using the...

According to my research, it's a 1774 and was made from 1983 to circa 1988. When you have an opportunity, I'd like to see photos of yours including the ratings on the canister & power head. I recorded that it's a Quiet Kleen, too, but now I'm unsure, because only one ad includes it...

You're welcome, Chris. Wait a while for others to respond; this site is less frequented these days mainly due to FB. Another option is to use the "Search Forums" hyperlink in the purple strip above to see if any archived threads have the information. If not, a guide would be great!

You bet. I located a response from Jimmy (rugsucker) in another thread that provides information about Electrolux polisher-scrubber accessories. The North American companies changed their names to Aerus about 25 years ago after selling the trademark and brand to the original parent company, AB...
