My Extensive Collection Part 5

Really beautiful machine-are you going to use it?I like these metal machines,too-so much better than the plastic ones.The metal may dent or scratch but still can be used over a plastic machine whose case BREAKS-no longer useable.

I doubt I ever will I have too many vacuums and lots of canisters unless they all break it will just stay in the box .

Guess its just me-if I had that machine would at least use it once to try it and see how it does.

Just so you know, I was able to find one of the green Electrolux brushrolls . My local Aerus dealer in Barrie, Ontario had a good used one that he was willing to sell for $33 CDN dollars plus tax. However, a warning to anyone who wants this brushroll for it's improved performance....do yourself a favor & just get the Aerus 10 degree brushroll. The performance between the green brushroll & the 10 degree brushroll is exactly the same, I found no improvement whatsoever in cleaning performance with the green brushroll.

The part for the 10 degree brushroll is: 48497 Brush Dowel (10 deg) & it sells for $69.99 CDN thru any Aerus franchise in Canada. One other way to improve performance is to take out the floating height adjustment in the back & "fix" the back wheels permanently with two metal pins, between the new 10 degree brushroll & fixing the rear wheels, it makes a HUGE difference in the powerhead's performance.

Here is my greatest find

This year I rarely go into the local Salvation Army store because I never purchase used vacuums but this day something told me to stop in . Well thank God I did I found a brand new in box Aerus central vac complete with all attachments for $99.00 and 50% off plus the lady took off another $10.00 because I was so nice to her that I gave her as a tip for doing that gotta have this installed while renovations are getting done to my house .

Who in their right mind donates a brand-new central vacuum? Some people! 

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Lots of

Wealthy people in this area you wouldn't believe what they donate , there's always lots of high end NIB items there .

Dan

 

[gsheen]

If there is no need to keep it and  no time to advertise it then donate it. 

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Exactly

Gareth I donate lots of Vacuums and other items to them and buy from them also .

Dan

 

[super-sweeper]

Wow, wonder why they would buy it in the first place, then? Maybe they have a fetish for shiny metal....

Some people, like Kirbyloverdan, have more money than they do brains, that's why they buy & then donate vacuums LOL.
