Today I found an Electrolux Genesis from 1991 with tools and the owners manuel for $14! I will post pictures soon. I will most likley sell this machine.
I find great finds in Tucson goodwill stores too.Also you should see if they do a general goodwill auction in Phoenix you will find many treasures for next to nothing prices.
I think you will love it, it is a great machine all around and with a good brushroll in it, the electrolux genesis will groom the carpet nicely, I have the prolux version and the Commercial red nozzle version, and both clean really well.

There was a sticker on the back from a Mesa Electrolux dealer that it was seviced at . I called them and they were so nice! They has a complete sevice record! In 2007 they replaced the brush roll. I like the soft bursh roll.
