And this GE was down in the basement - I didn't even ask the price. The thing weighed a ton! |

I passed on the GE because it seemed too "rare" - I'm generally not too interested in something that I can't get parts (or bags) for easily and cheaply. I may go back and get it to pass along to someone, but shipping would be expensive - it was HEAVY! |

Actually, it's an Automatic E, or AE, and a bit better than a standard E. Looks like it's in good condition. Hose looks original, but handle end has been replaced. As for your attachments, the rug nozzle is from a XXX, and the crevice tool is from an early XXX. The proper rug nozzle would be a flip over rug/floor nozzle, and the crevice tool would be the same compressed fiberboard but blue/gray in color. Your wheels are from a later model, possibly an F. But it is still an awesome find.

kenkart, I did end up going back to get the Roll-Easy - I'm pretty new to vintage vacuums and don't have the extensive background knowledge that most of the people on this site have, but I'm learning quickly! |
