I used the Electrolux (UK) Ltd. pamphlets that Doug Smith posted to provide this quick reference list. Additions are welcome, because the list only goes up to 1980 and the pamphlets only included vacuum cleaners; not floor polishers/shampooers, commercial vacuums, or devices. I'm not sure just...

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...

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):

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...

Would someone please give factual information (not conjecture) when the Model E and Model AE were launched? A prominent contributor on Vacuumland and one who should have the correct facts said both began in 1955; however, according to owner's manuals I have discovered that there was a Model E...

I've heard others say that the Electrolux vacuum cleaners sold in North America the past 15 or so years are actually Eureka machines. I don't understand that as the two machines I've seen look quite different from one another. Does the comment mean that the same type of engineering and...

I hadn't heard of this before--wonder when it was available and how long it was made?

I'm wondering when the first Aerus-branded machines were produced--was it 2004 or 2005? It seems to me that the numbered "Lux" line--you know, the Lux 9000/C134D, E, F; Lux 7000/C153A; Lux 6000/U140C, U156A, Lux 5500/C141G, Lux 5000/C101K, Lux 4000/U140A, Lux 3000/U110Y, U147A, U155A; Lux...

Somewhere in a thread someone mentioned that the Electrolux Model E and Model Automatic E debuted at the same time--in 1955. However, I just ran across this December 1956 ad listed on eBay which refutes that claim. Then, I went to Charles Lester's website and found that he has the correct...

Below is a pic from an eBay listing for a Lux 5000 which I thought was the last version of the Ambassadors since I have only known about the ones that are Model C101K. The Ambassadors were, of course, the budget model without the automatic shut-off feature when the bag is full. So, I was...

I'm wondering if my list of Model L motors is correct. Please let me know. Ivory ('63-'66): aqua Model G's motor Tan ('66-'68): tan Model G's motor Teal ('68-'74): (teal) Model 1205's motor Gold ('74-'78): (gold) Model 1205's and (gold) 1401's motor Or did they all have the same...

Does anyone know what Electrolux called the colors of the Renaissance models C104A and C104H? I'm wondering of the C104A was charcoal or black (with gray trim) and if the C104H was bronze (with gray trim)? Am also wondering if the Ambassadors and Epics that were manufactured at the time were...

Hi, I told the eBay lister of the Olympia One/Model 1505 and the rare brown PN-4A that I would mention here that he has reduced his starting price to $99.99 with shipping at $30.21 from Saint Petersburg, FL. There is also a buy it now price for $199.99. Here is the link...

Wondering if there was ever a difference in color or printing of the Model XXX bags over the years, or were they all identical? How about the hoses? Were they all the same color and design? What is the most economical and effective material to make LX filters (please post a pic of the...

When I was at the beach earlier I noticed several people blowing up air mattresses which took me back to a photo I saw of a vacuum cleaner being used to blow up balloons. So, is there an attachment that I could purchase for an Electrolux that would allow me to use it to inflate air mattresses...

Just curious ... Besides the obvious spare parts--how do vacuum cleaner companies benefit from trade-in cleaners? So many seem to have warehouses or storage rooms of them that just collect dust. Are trade-ins just a gimmick to make customers think they are getting a deal on a lower price...

Can anyone help me make a list of Electrolux USA canister motors? I'm thinking it would be a good resource for those who are wondering which motor mounts and motor housing sizes are the same when looking for replacements. It would also be interesting to note how the watts, amps, and volts have...

For a mere $145.00 you could be the proud owner of this Electrolux USA Gold Model L Lamp (listed on Etsy.com). You gotta give the person points for creativity, but 145 clams and you can't even clean with it? ... sheeesh!

I am wondering what the difference is between Nuvo and Turbo shampoos? Are they both still sold by Aerus? Also, what other chemicals/polishes does Aerus currently sell, and how do they compare with Kirby products or other similar products? Are there generic alternatives that work just as...

For the Record (as a reference) ... Have all the Electrolux USA serial ids been in the same format: 2 letters with 5 numbers in between? Did the earlier models (XXII, XXIIA, XXX, XX, LX, and LXI) all have the serial ids stamped on the top of the front chrome trim? I know the Model E's serial...
