    New Lux Demonstrated *Help me out Europeans*

    new Lux I can add this much. I have owned a very similar Electrolux 2100 for over 10 years. It has seen a LOT if hard use. No complaints from me on the service but to me it is very loud and the power nozzle is loud too. I think it may be because older Americans grew up with the XXX, E's and...

    ham steak

    Ham steak Shane, Charlie is right and don't forget to let it sit on paper towels and let all that extra water drain off BEFORE you cook. Only turn it ONE time and when on the second side, that is when I add the butter and brown sugar. I cannot use iron pans on my range but I do use the heavy...

    ham steak

    ham steak I always have it cut kind of thick. I also let it come to room temp and make sure and let it stand on paper towels so as much of the water has drained out as possible. I cook mine on my Guardian Service griddle at just a little over medium heat . I brown it in a little butter and...

    Electrolux Guardian Ultra & Platinum - Multiple Qs

    Electrolux Guardian Platinum Great video and thanks for posting . Those are not the same machines I have compared. I have a Lux 2100 and Epic 9000 and when we saw the new Aerus Platinum, they sounded all about the same to me . Same high pitched tone. It was much louder than the Platinum...

    Electrolux z25 in action mini video

    Electrolux z25 in Action Thank you. That was great! Can you imagine how exciting it would have been to see the new Electrolux for the first time when all other vacuums were heavy and belching dust from the old cloth bags.

    Electrolux Guardian Ultra & Platinum - Multiple Qs

    Electrolux Guardian Ultra Fred, Thanks for the information. Several of my friends on the forum had the first power nozzle with the stainless top (which I thought was handsome). The one I saw was all black. The new Aerus bags should eliminate the bag leaking problem on the new machines too.

    Electrolux Guardian Ultra & Platinum - Multiple Qs

    Electrolux Guardian Platinum I have to add that when I saw the new machine, although the machine was very powerful and quiet, the power nozzle was just as loud as my Electrolux that is 13 years old. From Aerus's claim, I was expecting a much lower tone. I could not tell any difference and it...

    This AirWay Sanitizor 66 runs beautifully!!!

    This Air-Way Sanitizor runs beautifully! Nice example. Your motor sounds just like my parents old 66. It runs very well too after all these years. They both have that familiar GE motor wind down when turned off. Notice the slight difference in the off/on switch. Mine was purchased in 1951.

    Simplicity Freedom Premium model S10P

    Simplicity Freedom John, Thanks for posting. It looks like a very nice machine. How is the noise level? I like the color and the brush roller. I have never owned a Simplicity or Ricarr but have looked at them in the vacuums stores. They seem to have very high quality when compared to what...

    Scored A Brand New In The Box Kirby Tradition This Weekend!

    Scored a brand new Kirby Tradition Fred, What a beauty! I was SO tempted when I talked to Tania last week but I have stopped using my Kirby. That is really a wonderful example and love the color! I know you will appreciate a fine machine in perfect factory new condition. Rob

    Lux Talk Around the Water Cooler

    Lux talk around the water cooler John, Thanks for posting the pictures and information about the new Aerus bags. Hope that will solve the leaking problems on the new machine. Good news if they are going to start making the bags themselves again.

    My Extensive Collection Part 6

    My Extensive collection part 6 Dan, You lost me . What are you referring to in a 250% increase in filtration when they already were claiming almost perfect filtration with all the filters? Unlike other users, you stated you had no leakage with the former paper bags. If the bags are not leaking...

    KIRBY AVALIR

    Kirby Avalir Thanks Gareth and Jimmy. I had no idea they had so many problems. It makes sense that Aerus is having problems with their new machines now and explains why (somewhat) why those new Hoovers I bought back in 2008 were such junk. I guess they were bringing so many new models and...

    The PINK Lady Kenmore Whispertone

    The Pink Lady Kenmore Whispertone Tom, That is one fine example of a vintage cleaner. It looks like it is "the Kirby" of canisters compared to the Electrolux G sitting beside it! The Electrolux looks so trim and slim. Even the Lux power nozzle looks trim and easy to use compared to the huge...
