Pete, the trim on the floor tool is blue. That was a clue to me also about its sales origin. Charles, the stories are always interesting. Your friend is just glowing with her new toy. What a gift! I'll be shopping for a polisher now! That whole prize package is just stunning, the hose and cord set it off so well, too. At the moment, I'm pleased with the cord on mine, that has Electrolux embossed on each side of the plug, it complements the grey handle and rocker switch, and the brightwork. Ha-maybe the Electrolux/Aerus dealer could have an appropriate hose. ? If I go vacuum hunting in Vero Beach Monday, I might try the shop on 21st street. I wish Mom's Model L with the cord reel were still here. She Goodwilled it when my brother bought her the Eureka Mighty Mite Boss! Still have that, it's good, but not an Electrolux.
