Mike Did I hear correctly that this model has a brushless motor in it like the newer Rainbows?

John I’ve never had an opportunity to attend any of the conventions (either the VCCC or the Tacony) mainly due to the distance from me and the lack of interest from my wife. If one was held here in the east, I would definitely be interested in trying to attend! I believe I’ve heard you’ve had...

Tom I too got scammed by a "member" a few years ago. I don't know if this person is on here anymore or not, as I gave up and moved on with my life, but this person was offering a very nice Filter Queen at a reasonable price. I had purchased another vacuum from them in the past, and while it...

543 That's not a bad price at all for that machine....I've seen ones in a LOT worse condition selling on eBay for MUCH more than the asking price!

Here’s the rest..... Of my toys; I haven’t taken a recent one of my electric meter lamp, but here’s a photo of what it looks like too! One thing I can say, I may be eclectic, but there’s plenty of conversation starters when you walk into my office!!

Nathan! I believe you are correct! I've carried it from office to office with me, but I think it is one I got from you. It runs amazing, and I'm 99.999% sure the motor has been serviced at some point because it seems to have a substantial amount more power than some of my other XXX's. I LOVE...

Well, I have taken a new job, and have a new office......time to start bringing some personal touches to it. The person before me had a planter on top of the bookshelf that leaked and made the top of the shelf look rather ugly. To cover it up, I figured I needed to add something that would...

And Handle.... Needs some cleaning, but appears to be in decent condition! http://https//www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Electrolux-Model-XXX-30-CARRYING-HANDLE-Canister-Vacuum-Cleaner-Part/323242847355?hash=item4b42c66c7b:g:pOkAAOSwhWFaTsLZ

Chris Look back through the archives. A few months ago, I believe someone posted a “new in the box” CE Lux. Might be worth looking into! Good luck with your store!

Deadline Auto Theft I haven't watched that movie in AGES! That was a classic H.B. Halicki film! Same guy that created Gone in 60 Seconds and The Junkman! I do recall that scene with the guy stoned off his gourd and the old vacuum! Thanks for bringing this up!

Buying on looks...... Absolutely! One of my last eBay purchases was based on the looks of the machine! At this moment, it’s physically IMPOSSIBLE to use this vacuum because I don’t have a power transformer for it, and it’s 220 volts...do I regret my purchase? No way! This thing is SUPER...

Rainbow It has been said before, and it's very true about a Rainbow vacuum. They aren't for everyone! I have five of them (six if you count a parts machine) ranging from a Model B (small, black metal vacuum) all the way up to the newest model with the lighted basin. I have two of the D4 SE...

Favorite Hoover Upright..... Gosh! How can you choose just one?!?! I have so many that I like! My current ones I use are a lavender model 33, and the cheerful U4127! But I also love my more vintage models too!!!

Vacuum I can't get here..... Mine would definitely be one I have been after for what seems like FOREVER. I know for the past four or five years, I have been hounding Godfrey's in Australia and Sauber to send me one of their Excellence vacuum systems. We have something here similar to it in...

Eurekastar That's a really cool setup you've got there! I have modified a couple of XXX's like that as well, and I've run into major issues with the gaskets as well. In fact, I have one that I LOVE that has a brand new two-stage Ametek motor in it, but because I don't have the gaskets in...

Les Oh absolutely! While I do have an XXX that I do use occasionally to clean my house, the pre-war models don't show up that often on eBay, and quite frankly, I think it's fairly reasonably priced. I would be interested in it myself, but I already have some pre-war models like it, and have...

This isn’t my listing, and I don’t know the seller, but I ran across a pre-war XXX (model 30) Electrolux vacuum on eBay tonight and thought I’d share it with you guys in case anyone might be interested in it...

It has arrived!! I was as excited as a little kid at Christmas to open this big box today! FedEx was supposed to deliver it yesterday, BUT due to an error with them reading the address incorrectly, it got bumped up a day! Nevertheless I now have possession of my very first European vacuum...

I completely agree I have run across these old Electrolux vacs and they would be so dirty, dusty, and rusty that I would think “there’s no way on earth that poor old thing could run.....”. More than once have I had my face filled full from a nice big dust cloud as that old motor purred to life...
