Hre are some pics of my Lux's Not Electroluxes but Luxes the d790 is made in sweden but the lux1r is made somewere in the EU probibly hungry.
I have all the attachments some not shown for the lux1r It is super quiet , making a miele sound like a jet but the hose is to short and and to big in diameter to alloy you to use it in confined spaces. The PN is louder than the vac |

It could also be that it is very time consuming and expensive to get the machine UL listed , I know they are much tougher than any of the other saftey boards around the world, when I worked at Electrolux R&D SA I remember one of the engeneers from Eureka complaining about the fact that they are so much tougher than the UK or SA saftey boards

Lux is an off-shoot of Sweden's Electrolux. It was originally the exclusive door-to-door sales branch of that company in Europe. I think the division was sold to a family in Switzerland in 1998. It is a worldwide company now, with a very successful direct sales division in India named Eureka-Forbes.
Lux International cooperates with Aerus now in North America. Here is the link to its history: CLICK HERE TO GO TO eurekaprince's LINK |

Hey there Gareth! Off-topic - I hear that Cape Town is a very beautiful city. It recently was listed by Travel and Leisure Magazine as the best travel destination to visit in the Middle East and Africa. Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Dubai follow in position 2, 3 and 4.
EP Brian - all the way across the ocean in Canada.... :-) |

here is the indian model, One of them any way.
Its ok but not worth what they want for it and its filtration is not on par with any thing out their , a 35 year old hoover will leak less dust into the air cord is ony about 5m long aswell. nothing like my other luxes this one is brand new and came out of a sealed box with pieces missing like the knob on the power control, Its floor tool also came appart in minutes and the telescopic wand jamed and bent. over all not a good machine, It had a powerfull motor though. |
