Hi all, I first became interested in vintage vacuums and joined this forum a little over a year ago. Well, since then I have apparently become a major Electrolux fan! Ha! Since I got my first Electrolux vacuum, I've been slowly finding more accessories. If anyone had told me I was going to...

Hi all, Recently I bought a vintage Electrolux polisher/shampooer. I have no intention of actually using it, but I just wanted it for my collection. Especially since I saw it on an old advertisement card with the Model G vacuum and PN-1 power nozzle. Ha, now I have all 3 of them! I took it...

I just bought this and it arrived today. I really like the metallic blue color! It looks brand new and never used. Does anyone know what time period it would be from? - Chris

Over the past several days, I've bought a few things on eBay for my Electrolux XXX vacuums. One of them was missing the cloth bag, so I found one that is NOS and completely unused. (It's not Electrolux, but it was made in the USA at least!) I also found a small metal upholstery nozzle, and a...

I saw that someone is selling this Eureka canister vacuum online. They said in the listing that it's "vintage" but there isn't anything about what model it is. Does anyone know anything more about it and what year it might have been made? The closest match I could find is model 3321. I'm kind...

When I bought the Model G earlier, I cleaned it up and got it looking pretty decent. But I was never really happy with how the brush roll on the power nozzle still looked kind of grimey. I want to get a new brush roll, but I'm having kind of a hard time finding one. (The website I planned to...

I posted a question about this earlier on the Electrolux USA facebook group, but I just wanted to get a little more of a consensus. While I was cleaning my Model XXX vacuums, I noticed they have a capacitor connected in parallel with the motor. I've read that it's a "suppressor" capacitor that...

I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving! I had another quick question about one of my Electrolux XXX vacuums. I was cleaning it and managed to get the metal looking pretty good. But the covering material on top (is it some kind of vinyl?) has spots where it's fading and discolored. I guess it...

Well, apparently I AM collecting vacuum cleaners now! I can't believe my luck! I mentioned earlier in another topic that I amazingly found a local vacuum shop, and the owner has a bunch of vintage vacuums which he was willing to sell. The last time I was there, I saw a really cool early...

So far, I'm really liking the vintage Model G vacuum I bought recently :) It's working great, and even the "weird smell" it had is starting to disappear the longer I play around with it and run the motor. (Or Am I just getting used to it?? Ha.) I'm really curious now, what would the original...

Hi all, I just joined this forum tonight. I just recently bought an Electrolux Model G, and so far I love it! I'm not necessarily a vacuum collector per se, but I really like antique machines and electronics in general. After see pictures and videos of the model G, I decided I wanted one! It's...
