New Electrolux Model F Hose!

[charles~richard]

Woven hoses DO definitely add to the beauty of a machine. I wonder if there are any manufacturers at all anymore who still use woven hoses. I doubt it, since they are so much more complicated and costly to produce. It's far easier to squirt a blob of plastic into a mold than to go through all the steps necessary to put together the several layers of a woven hose.

I know chrales

I just like that hose I think it is cool and have never seen one before this sory if I was a bit nasty

Oh, John, I didn't take your comment as nasty --

-- you were just expressing your opinion and there's certainly nothing wrong with that. I just wanted to make sure people didn't think I was being critical of Ken's hose. It really is very pretty. I love the color combination!

AE Ad Showing Hose

The colors in this ad are very true, and give a good indication of the colors of the AE hose.

Ken J. said,

... one of my lingering memories of Electroluxes is that whenever I find old ones, I always find them with the hose of the subsequent generation's model. We were always E's with F gray hoses...

Model F ad

Here's an ad I found from June 1960. It shows the colors of the hose pretty well.
