    My first Electrolux!

    Silverado Deluxe John, That would be a Silverado deluxe sold from 1982-1984. Very nice machine! They are a work horse and will last forever if you use geniune bags. If you need a power nozzle let me know I have about a billion of the PN5's that they came with towards the end of production. The...

    Question about Bison

    How much is Bison worth? I found a guy who has a green one just the machine itself nothing else and he told me to make him an offer. He is in the vacuum business so he knows what they are hard to come by. I was thinking $150-$200? Too low?

    How to handle a DTD salesman

    Not all DTD salesmen are that way I know that most vacuum cleaner salesmen are worse then used car salesmen but there are some of us who have better morals then guinea pigs. I always go by the golden rule and I NEVER pressure anyone into buying anything they don't want. Also, I never sell...

    My Electrolux died

    Cord Reel If it turns on a little when you pull the cord out then its probably a contact on the reel. You can take those apart and clean the contacts. Worse case might need a part for the reel. Be careful cause most Electrolux dealers will try to get you to buy a whole reel which is $$$$$. If...

    Bagless Kirby?

    Sure that lasts........... I can only imagine how long that will take to get broken from the way it sticks out in front and back. Plus the way its built looks like only a slight bump and it would break. $200 could buy alot of Kirby bags...........

    Awesome Motor upgrade for older Electrolux vacuums.

    Guardian motor Vernon this is the same motor that is in the Guardian, legacy and classic. I am sure the perfect motor would have more suction and be the better motor. The aerus version would, however, be easier to retrofit into an older machine. I know the kit comes with the mounting ring to...

    Awesome Motor upgrade for older Electrolux vacuums.

    Keep em going One thing I have found with Aerus is that they are supporting the older machines. As parts run out they are either trying to find sub parts or they are remaking them. Pretty much you can still get most things that you need from most models from the 1205 on up. For example you can...
