Hey :)
I got an Electrolux Diamond Jubilee a little while back, and it works great, but I don't have anything but the vacuum itself. Just wondering if anyone here might have any tools or a hose or maybe even the power nozzle? Oh, and here's a pic (still gotta clean it up, just need some time):

A Little HTF:

Hi:

Tools for a DJ are a little HTF, because they're beige, to match the cleaner. Fog Grey tools are the most common for the later Luxes, and they look okay with a DJ. A little eBaying, and you'll find a set in pretty short order, at least in the grey. Beige will take a bit more patience.

BTW, if you have to buy a hose, spring for genuine Aerus if you can afford it. It makes huge difference when you're vacuuming, because it has the swivel end. And it will outlast an aftermarket hose pretty much every time.

Oh, and BTW:

That "Diamond Jubilee" sticker on the top rear of your machine is a real plus; those didn't often survive. Mine has it, but I've only seen two others with one, and yours is one of those two.

Nice find!

Oh wow, thx for the info :). I'll keep my eye out for those tools then. And actually, I got this vac for free, so im pretty happy even w/out tools for now :)

Nick:

If you think you're happy now, wait until you get to use the machine. If it's in proper repair, it has the most phenomenal suction of any Lux model I've ever used. That thing will suck dry paint off a wall, LOL- at least it will with a fresh bag. As will all Luxes, suction decreases quite a bit after the bag is about half full. Fortunately, Lux bags are cheap and they're everywhere. This machine will very likely become your daily driver.
