What a joke!!!!Selling a floor machine that doesn't run for 500 bucks????Yes,What has that seller been smoking or taking???-or Huffing????Besides the machine looks like it was taken from the barn or shed-after sitting there for years.They would have to PAY me that for taking it off their hands!!!Or--the machine may not have been from the shed--but fished out of the dumpster!

"Does not work"???

 If a seller who has many unfamiliar estate find items quickly plugged in a B-7 and stepped on the 2 speed switch it would NOT and should NOT run.If someone spent more time with it they might find that it would run well(as most do)when the handle is pulled back and that the 3 brush Electrolux was the best thing to happen to household hard floors.Many of these were used once or twice a year and then forgotten in dusty storage as more carpet was added to a home.
And YES the price is too high.But the TWO sets of original brushes(that later cost about $70 for 3) seem to be in good condition.
This might turn out to be a valuable machine in a hard floor house at a LOWER price.

I wonder if the seller is hitting the speed switch thinking that's how you turn it on instead of just lowering the handle?

I could be wrong but didn't this model have a speed switch?

Wouldn't surprise me, when I worked in a vacuum store, I started to become convinced that 60% of the time, the average person wouldn't even know what end of the vacuum cleaner goes on the floor. Now throw in a speed switch..... there's a curve ball.

$500.00?! What are these people smoking? and why are they not sharing?..... Selfish Selfish!
