Thanks!!! The only Electrolux that I ever knew of was the 1205. My mom used one since I was about 8 years old up on till I was 18 I think. It was her mom's and she bought it new! It's not new anymore! I have a thread on the pics of what it looks like now. I found it at my parents' house in their garbage heap! Needless to say, it now lives with me! It's mostly covered in rust, missing all but one wheel, the handle is completely missing, but I'm going to restore it! What's funny is it still runs great and the cord winder works like it's new! Well, my mom just passed about 6 months ago and now that I have it, it means so much more! That vacuum is what started my obsession! Before I got my mom's 1205, my husband bought me my own 1205 from Ebay and I use it everyday! So, from there I realized that there are so many different styles of Electrolux canisters and I had to have the LX and the XXX!!! Anyways, I've always thought the Kirbys were scary and fascinating at the same time! I've always cherished the movie Brave Little Toaster and loved "Kirby"! Ha Ha! I think they're amazing part of history and can see myself collecting Kirbys like a crazy person! I collect vintage clock radios, Sunbeam Mixmasters stand mixers, electric hand mixers, vacuums, and chainsaws too! I don't know much about Kirbys at all! What model do you think is the best and a good one to have for a daily user??? Thanks for writing to me! -Michelle
