~ I have an identical vacuum cleaner from Norway called the WILFA that friends who live there sent to me. It's an amazingly beautiful machine. |

Is there actually a filter at the rear end? What does it look like? New replacement filters available? |

Hi Francois
I picked up the identical machine a couple of months ago. Here's a picture of it with the proper hose and rug/floor nozzle (I didn't get the small parts with it). Arrow Electro was made by Holland Electro in Holland for the Arrow Sewing Machine Co. in Canada. This model would have been the lower line machine around 1960. No there wasn't an exhaust filter. Doug

Bought lots of Electrolux accessories today including 15 to 20 floor brushes (some of them are brand new I guess) , the seller also had LOTS of bags of all makes and models for sale, I bought 3-4 Eureka bags with a rubber ring that could fit the Arrow tank, I'll let you know. |

MIne has its original shake-out cloth bag too, but i'm looking for something that could catch more dust. I'd be curious to see what your flat filter looks like, does it look like factory made? |

Are there any differences in appearance between BOL and TOL? The chrome really pops on these. Nice! |

Hi Bill
This was the Top of the Line model style (This one is actually a couple of years older than the Lower Line model above)
