Very lovely, in a kitschy 1970s way. I think you should name her Sylvia. |

Sylvia leapt to my mind because I used to have a neighbor named Sylvia whose entire house looked like that vacuum cleaner!! |

Some of the Canadian Luxes had this too - starting with the ZB89 but then I don't know how late it ran. |

So the US model Eluxes never had the switch grip like the Canadian models? |

Personally, I loved the squeeze trigger on the lux's handle. It was exactly where I held the handle anyway and it definitely wasn't difficult to squeeze so it didn't in any way make my finger tired squeezing it. And it was so nice to be able to just let go of the handle and the power nozzle would stop. I wish that they had continued with that switch instead of the bulky switches (or on some hoses, no switch at all) that came out on the later hoses which are still in use. Gary |
