New UltraLux
Tom, I'm very interested in this new Electrolux. I didn't know they were coming out with a new model. I haven't stayed current on their machinces since I don't have one for my daily machine and haven't gone into the Electrolux branch in quite some time. I don't know if you remember but you helped me out some time ago when I was only about 16. I used to fax you at your store and were always a huge help! I tried to get some info about 3 weeks on the Air-Way you designed but the company hasn't sent it to me yet (The web page doesn't give much info on the unit). Anyway I just sent in my check to Terry Lattz for my new VCCC membership and I'm looking forward to being a member of the club again. -Steven | ||

New Lux
Ok, so I went to the Electrolux dealer while I was out before (since they are only 5 minutes from my house) but i didn't see the UltraLux. The dealer was closed since it was after 7pm, but I could see right in the window and my headlights lit up the place. They had all the regular (old) models on display, no new machine. I thought for sure i would see one on display in the store :(. Im dying to see it and to use one! Does anyone know what the MSRP is on the machine? -Steven | ||

Lux Upright
I have owned the Discovery II (like the Special Edition), Epic 3500, and the Lux 3000. I believe that the 3500/3000 were more powerful than the Discovery 2 and although I'm not 100% certain, i think they had a different motor than the Discovery 2. If I remember correctly the Special Edition models and the Regency were sold at large retail chains. There were quite a few machines with the pig tail cord that were recalled some time ago since the cord could come out of the handle and shock the user. I remember seeing them in Costco when I was very young and wondering if they were some kind of knock off machine. Tom and some other members can give you the correct answer about the motor. I can tell you though that 30 inches of water lift is crapy. When I had my Discovery 2 the Epic 2500 was still avalible and I asked Electrolux for the water lift info on the machine. I believe they claimed it was 60 inches but the 2500 and the 3500 shared the same motor. I know that my Discovery wasn't the most powerful vac but I would check out the machine if I were you.

Ultralux
Since its no longer the 80th aniversary, does the Lux Classic have the same motor as the Ultralux? Do the current Legacy and Guardian have the Ultralux motor? Does Electrolux have any plans to change their model line up anytime soon? One thing that I did not like about my 6500 and Renaissance was when using the floor nozzle you still had to use those clunky plastic wands. I liked how the older machines, and the classic, had a seperate lite weight wand set for the floor and the power nozzle with its sheath never needed to be used for above floor cleaning. I love how easy the 6500 and other lux canisters are able to manuever around my house and that made them so easy to use. When it comes to performance I feel like Electrolux has not kept up with the others in its price range like Miele (even kenmore). One of the reasons for buying a new Miele two years ago was because I didnt feel like my Luxs had the power to clean as well as other vacs and I went on a hunt for a new machine. Lux has a dealer five minutes from my house, bags are not rediculouly priced, and the warranty one the Guardian (if its still 25years) is outrageous. It just seems like the most important part of the whole picture, how it cleans, still stands out above all the other added benefits. -Steven | ||
