The 1967 Electrolux G

[dysonman1]

With much thanks to my friend Alex. He brought this amazing example of a bronze model G to my vacuum collectors and friends Thanksgiving Bash. This virtually brand new example is now one of the jewels of my personal collection. Thanks again Alex. I have been drooling over this machine for a decade.

It’s absolutely stunning. The hose is completely sealed. Step back in time to 1967.

Such a work of engineering art.

There is nothing like a completely sealed Electrolux hose

 

[dysonman1]

And it is whisper quiet too

Thanks to all my Vacuum Collector friends for coming to our Thanksgiving bash.

Alex also brought me a 1964 Whirlpool power nozzle.

Sweet Eelectrolux Model G !
ps i wonder if lux later copied the whirlpool power head to make the L shape power head??

Good thing there is a great vacuum on hand to get all those dinner crumbs from such a big party! Also that Whirlpool nozzle is way ahead of its time in terms of styling, you could have said it was from 1994 and I'd have believed it!

I know how happy you are to have it!

The gorgeous one you gave me is absolutely my #1 favorite piece!

I actually bought another, not as pristine, so I can use that more regularly, and preserve the perfect one for longer.

Glad you had such a bountiful Thanksgiving soiree!

You're blessed and lucky all around, my friend. [this post was last edited: 11/12/2018-19:17]

Very generous and thoughtful, Alex!

What a beauty Tom,

just like that red Royal canister you got recently. Eventually, I'd like to have both model G's. Do you know what the difference is on the motors between the two? I hear the motor is bigger on the one you have over the aqua. Happy for you, Bill

Excellent.


 


That 60s Whirlpool pn seems so ahead of it's time.  I wonder why they didn't move forward with that.
