I was looking at that one. Fits well with my user name actualy (its a model 1521). I did a bit of research on the 2 bidders and neither of them appear to be collectors based on their bidding history. Chances are I won't get it. Oh well. | ||

Hose
I posted a question to the seller about the hose that comes with it. For this piece to be truly excellent, it needs to include the original hose, which isn't shown. The listing says "durable vinyl." I'll post the reply if I get one and get the time. Today is gonna be really busy, but I should be able to. Patrick | ||

Ultra Lux
I have the club Ultra Lux until the Omaha Convention. I will try to post pictures next week. I am out of town for the weekend and also have a full schedule on Sunday. The Ultra Lux is the last of the metal series. It is a very nice vacuum. We have the Side Kick along with the standard attatchments. I do not know the complete story of how we receieved the Ultra Lux, but I do beleive that Tom Gasko worked with Electrolux during his leadership to acquire the vacuum for us. It has seen very limited use. Even with the limited use, the hose is fraying, but still holds great suction. Ours does not have the sticker on the front like the one on EBay indicating what number out of a 1000 our machine is. Morgan | ||

Charlie,
Your are correct, I caught that in the add as well. The orginal hose has silver, black, red and if memory serves it may even have a gold thread as well. Once I get home this weekend I will try to get pictures taken. I am not sure where the label on the front came from either, our machine does not have one, unless because we were not a dealer they did not put one on the machine. The label I am referring to is the number of the machine from 1000. Morgan | ||

Oh, the hose was silver. Why was I thinking it was black. I thot it was black with red and gold striping. Well, at least I was right about it being a woven hose. Not even sure a silver hose would look right with this machine... | ||

Actually, it's kinda ugly isn't it. Why do the machine in dark charcoal and gold and the hose in silver, red and black. The hose thus looks like a mismatch. | ||
