Since my last reply I have aquired a Husqvarna q2600h. I was wondering what the link between electrolux and husqvarna is? I have seen a greeny blue model with a suction control slider and on board tools , a charcoal gray model with a suction control slider boost button on board tools and turbo...

Well, I was thinking a premier clean 950 for a basic setup, or a kiwivac kb4t for if I went all out. going allout would mean retractable hoses ( 1x 50 foot and 2x 40 foot), basic inlets, 2 vac pans, a vroom, a port to attach a 2 inch hose in the garage or have it capped of, a large array of...

I am looking for some ideas on what central vacuum for setup you would suggest for a 250 square meter (2700 square foot) new build. That is excluding the 5.5 x 5.5 meter (18x 18 foot) vacuum area in the attic and the 6x6 (20 x 20 foot) meter courtyard. I would like an md sv or g23 equivalant...

I have been lucky enough to end up with a vac n seal food storage system. I hear they are incredibly rare ( unless I am wrong). My example is new in box with all the original paperwork, including the dealer paperwork. It seems very well made as with all MD manufacturing products. I am...

I know the owner of Kiwivac central vacuums and they are made with lamb motors, standard tools and standard tubing systems. They are made over here mainly because it means the shipping costs can be lower because it is easier to ship a motor than a machine. They are made to specification for the...

Would anyone know where I could find the inside of that brochure that Owen has linked with his svt. In New Zealand we have Kiwivac central vacuums and their kb range of machines. There is the kb which I do not know what motor it has, the kb2 with a single 117123, the kb3 with a single massive...

Hello, thank you all for your replies. After doing some extra research and comparisons I have got some answers. In the early history there appears to be some machines that were sold overseas that were not sold in NZ. Some examples of this are the model 9,10,12,18,24,117,29,30,48,60, etc. I...

Were these taken at a Godfreys in Australia or NZ.

That is very interisting to hear, this information came from a ex-employee of electrolux in the 1990s. I do not know much about very early vacuums, other than the hoover model O. I am quite intrigued by that. There might be a corelation between electrolux and dudley-electric. I have...

had the time to check. the 720 in made in NZ, but the 735 is made in australia

I think all of the from the z89 onwards were made in NZ, if any of them were it would be 720 onwards. I will post later tonight when I can check

A few weeks ago I purchased four Electrolux vacuums and thought that I would post about them. When I met with the Trademe seller ( NZ's version of ebay) he passed on, via email, a full list of Electrolux models ever sold in NZ until the year 2000. When Electrolux changed to Lux in 1992 that...

Hello. I started to be interested in vacuums when I was two, been getting more interested ever since. I am mainly interested in machines post World War Two and pre 2000s. I live in Christchurch New Zealand and collect all machines. I mainly collect older Tellus/Nilfisk, Electrolux and Hoover...
