Electrolux Corporation & Electrolux (Canada) Limited Info. Canada's original logo was the ornamental cursive, globe, and rays (like Sweden's and the US's). Its later wordmarks were mainly sans serif capitals followed by its version of the US's "boat-shaped" logo with sans serif capitals in the...

Here is a timeline of AB Electrolux (Sweden) logos & wordmarks from its history page of the 2011 Annual Report (http://annualreports.electrolux.com/2011/en/operations/thehistoryofelectro/the-story-of-electr.html) The page includes a nice photo of Axel Wenner-Gren, who initiated the production...

Teal 1205 & Model L w/Matching Brush Plate Here's another photo of the one in reply #17. I do wonder if the teal Model 1205 paint was identical to that of the teal Model L (although it doesn't appear so to me--the 1205 looks metallic). In that case, I would call this a teal Model L version...

Early Model G White Wall Brush The early Model Gs companion white wall brush had the classic metal holder with the aqua brush plate (circa 1960-64). Later ones had the plastic holder with the teal trim (as stated in reply #19):

Model S White Wall Brush According to the blue-gray brush plate which matches the blue-gray Model S, here is the companion white wall brush (old eBay photo):

"Quick Lux" (eBay photo):

I am interested in knowing the models, amps, years of manufacture and any other details of the Electrolux (rebranded Regina) "LuxLite" (circa 1991) and Aerus "Quick Lux" (circa 2006). LuxLite (originally posted by lux1521 in a 2009 Vacuumland thread):

Options are always nice to have for customers--particularly if it allows those on tighter budgets to afford a quality product sans the extra features such as the halo. It would be interesting to see a chart that showed the number of sales for each Electrolux cleaner--budget and standard. I...

Want to be sure I've read correctly ... Barkeeper's Friend and #0000 steel wool is safe for painted surfaces and chrome along with metal?

Very cool, Charles. Thanks for the 411 and pics!!!!

Thanks. Someone else mentioned that it was discontinued before 1960.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. Discussions like this can help us all to double-check our information and clean out the metaphorical cobwebs with our metaphorical Electroluxes! I've said it so many times, but it bears repeating ... It sure would be great if a longtime Aerus/Electrolux...

Here are some excerpts from a Model S eBay listing which may end speculation of whether the Model R began prior to 1960: "The Manual says it is a 'Special Model'". "The Manual says it is the World's Lightest Weight Heavy Duty Cleaner. There is writing on the back of the manual it says - Paid...

No, I haven't been drinking ... guess I didn't proof my original comment very well (just noticed more errors). Instead of retyping I'll just acknowledge my carelessness. Sorry about that.

Your Kirbys prolly share the burden while many rely on one cleaner to do all the work. Repeated use would definitely be more problematic. CORRECTION: "YOU get extra-shiny floors ... "

Very cool--I wonder if a revised Handi-Butler will be an option?

Thanks for confirming. Not that I doubt you, but I do find it interesting that the 1955 Model E manual's title page still carries the "new" adjective. It may be that the 'E' was introduced in October 1954, and the manual was updated in early 1955 after the stabilizer was added. As for the...
