I didn't know many people with Electroluxes in West Islip, lol...most of my friends north and south of montauk hwy had Hoover & Kenmores, even Eurekas growing up...One friend's mom had a JC Penney {Eureka style} Canister in Brown...
My family was mostly Hoover and Kenmore through the years...and still is... I did have Aunt with an Electrolux, think it was a 1205 based on the research here...it was blue/turquoise with the cloth hose...I remember seeing it at her house in the closet...I don't recall an Electrolux store in West Islip, you may be thinking of the one in Bayshore or Babylon Village...I left WI in 98' so, maybe it's something new...I remember those stores and seeing the vacuums in the window passing the stores...I would always be happy with backed up traffic and red lights to see the vacuums as a child, moreso in Babylon Village, as we never ventured into Bayshore...haha
Where are you on the N. Shore? I lived in Wading River for 8 years before moving to NC...loved it there...and none of my friends/neighbors there had Electroluxes either...haha
