    Electrolux LX and Electrolux E

    <span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #0000ff; font-size: small;">I have an Electrolux LX that has a problem with the bag ejection system.  The vacuum works perfectly and has great suction.  However, the pusher plate keeps engaging and the door does not open, which smashes...

    Unique Vintage Electrolux

    Electrolux XXX Hi There,   I would say you have an unusual XXX.  The XXX originally came with a cloth bag.  You have one that has been converted to paper bags.  There are not many of these machines around.    If you require additional information, go to Charles Lester's web site.  ...

    Electrolux's Finest- POST 1980

    A vacuum Aerus should aspire to reproduce My favorite post 1980 Electrolux would be the Olympia One.  In my opinion, it was the absolute best Electrolux ever manufactured.  The Olympia One was very powerful, built to last, easy to use, dependable, and had my favorite power nozzle.  This is a...

    Electrolux's Finest- PRE 1980

    Without a doubt My choices:   The 1952 Electrolux Model LX.  In my opinion, it is the most beautiful Electrolux vacuum ever produced.  Innovative new ideas, great power, and a magnificent design.  However, it was not a very practical vacuum.  Much too heavy and did suffer from premature bag...

    Stick Vacuums

    I am interested in purchasing a cordless stick vacuum and have decided on either the Hoover Linx or the Electrolux Ergorapido 1030a. Both are powered by an 18 volt lithium ion battery and have great reviews. Has anyone out there had experience with either of these two stick vacuums? Also...

    Beautiful Electrolux LX Hi Rick, My Grandmother had an LX. Even as I child I thought the machine was incredible. My mother had a XXX and purchased the LX as a gift to my Grandmother when my Grandparents purchased a country house. Electrolux vacuums were the preferred brand of vacuums with...

    My absolute favorite vacuum of all time is the Electrolux LX dipicted in today's Picture of the Day. In my opinion, the LX is the most beautiful Electrolux ever produced. Maybe not the most practical, but certainly beautiful. The LX was the first vintage Electrolux I ever purchased. It was...

    I am kinda thinking of a Brand New Vacuum.

    I must also respectfully disagree The Miele cannister vacuums surpass the new Aerus vacuums in every way. The new S5 Miele vacuums have excellent power, filtration, easy functionality, and most important at the Estate, the Miele cannisters are very quiet. So quiet that you can here the...

    Choice for Modern Vacuum Cleaner I recently purchased new vacuums for my personal residence and the Estate Residence that I manage in South Florida. I have always been a fan of Electrolux. However, the new models are terrible. They have great performance, but are cumbersome, clunky, do not...

    Greetings to all the Electrolux afficiandos, I recently acquired a turquoise Model G. The machine works perfectly, however, it could use a beauty treatment. Does any know where I might purchase turquoise paint that will match the original color? Also, the bumper near the power cord is pretty...

    Great debate: Lux metal vs. plastic-bodied models as users?

    13593 Greetings from another Electrolux afficiando. I prefer the metal body Electrolux vacuums. In my opinion, the Olympia was the best vacuum Electrolux ever produced. Powerful, dependable, and easy to use. It is the vacuum I use on a daily basis. It is in superb condition and will run...

    Electrolux

    13598 Good Afternoon Charles, Thank you for the welcome. Your tip on repainting the Automatic E is noted. I probably will just live with condition of the machine. It really is not in bad shape. Just a couple of scratches here and there. If I am every lucky enough to find an Automatic F in...
