I have 2 Elites (1 burgundy & 1 green) and a grey & pink Legacy, which is almost the same thing. They clean really well. There is a very nice early white Elite on eBay right now.
Here is a good working, no problem, deluxe Elite (called the Dimension with covered tool compartment) that I do not want. A few minutes with some fantastic and a magic eraser and it would look new. Pay postage and it's yours. It came with a lot of bags. I sold her a Riccar Prima - and she just left this one for me. It works like a Hoover should. Postage is about $35 to $40.
I know how to make video's with my iPhone (made one of the cordless Simplicity Freedom). I know how to post them to the facebook group Vac U Friends. But I've never posted one on here. If you're on Vac U Friends, I'll post a video of it running on that group page.
