Went to Kane County Flea Market Saturday to sell something I had to a dealer and then wandered around and ran across this Electrolux XII with the brown rubber cord for just a few dollars.

NICE condition -- rare to find the original handle not dry-rotted and crumbling. I suggest you carry the machine around by cradling your arm around the body and not by the handle!
The original hose had a screw-in machine-end coupler and was dark brown or tan (I've seen both) with black dotted striping. The attachment set consisted of a wood floor brush, metal rug nozzle, metal dusting brush, metal upholstery nozzle, fiber crevice tool, sprayer & vaporizer.

I have the hose that screws in.
The XII came with the bakelite connector that takes the screw in hose.
I do have the later connector that takes the style 30 hose as well.

The Model XII takes the same cloth bag as the Model XXX.
I have extra cloth bags and the after motor filters (the XII takes a larger filter than the XXX) for my XII, Early 39 and Late XXX.
My Model XI has a premotor filter but has the screw in bakelite hose connector like the Model XII.
