 Those are really nice vacuums. When I got the one I have, it had mold all over the motor. So that gave me the excuse to upgrade it to the newest Tri-Star motor. I really do like the tool caddy on the wand. It stays in place and the tools are quickly accessed. I also like the fact that it has an on/off switch on the handle and that the power nozzle can be used on bare floors. There are numerous things to commend it. However, I'm not certain the Electrolux design power nozzle cleans as well as the old CXL power nozzle. | ||

Tool caddy Why won't this one fit my EXL? This one has a tab inside where the wand gos; but the wands don't have the slot for the tab. I don't know if the EXL & MG Series tool holders are diffrent? | ||

I don't know if this motor is an Ametek? My EXL & MG2 both have this motor; the HEPA motor filter fit perfectly. :) My guess is it's a 2-stage twin-fan motor?

Yes, that motor should be the one in your EXL. The one in the MG1 is a very small one stage motor that is rather short lived compared to the two stage motor in yours. Here is a picture of the motor actually in the body. I have a picture of the motor in a MG1 as well that burned out already and was replaced. Daniel

The motor on the left is the MG1 crappy motor, just showing a comparison to a Kenmore canister motor (ordinary two stage motor). These small motors dont last that long. Daniel

well that explains a lot
I found it odd that you said it was a great performer but it makes sense if you have the two stage motor. With the dual stage motor it must have greater airflow than the VM3 motor in my MG2 because while it's a decent vac it's not great due to it's lack of airflow, i see the know JEI motor has a little more airflow to it (about 35 for the VM3 and 42 for the JEI)

What else is different between the EXL, MG & CS Series besides the color of unit & suction motors? | ||

What kind of motor does a mg2, and a cs have. They seem to have a lot of suction and are very quite compared to my MG1.. Dan | ||
