I picked up a near mint golden J off Facebook marketplace for $50. When I got it home, I plugged it in the motor spun right up to high speed like an electrolux should then all the sudden it slowed down then got very noisy and I could smell it burning. Is this a symptom of needing new brushes or...

So my Golden Jubilee came with a 4A nozzle instead of the proper PN 2 and it had a broken throat so I went on a search for a PN2. I just got one in the mail from eBay. It came with a wand and hose too, which I was hoping to use for my 1205 restoration. But I was looking at pictures online and I...

Growing up I remember my grandparents having a big old Chrome Electrolux floor polisher it looked like an upright and had two brushes underneath for cleaning the floor and then wool pads for polishing it. Now I bought my first house and it has hardwood floors everywhere. I like using paste wax...
