So yesterday the almost son was over to help me, my hands are getting helpless. I needed to take apart and probably clean the heater/fan. He wanted something to blow with, I asked what/how? He said get me the old suckolux, that sob will unplug anything, always what I use. It has very strong pull, especially with the Perfect HEPA bags, I even have a Miele premotor filter on it, but it has a slim hose. Does it have all that much pull/ lift? Silverado, he and I found in a pawn shop 30 years ago. Suckolux came from him always calling it that. Cartoon I think.

Silverado is a good vac, especially the earlier models. They had the better motor. | ||

My most recent Electrolux acquisition, a little more than a year ago, was a Silverado. It had had a rough life and had been stripped of a few parts but I managed to bring it back from death's door last spring. It works pretty well, even though the cord winder doesn't retract all the way. I'll have to try and fix that one of these days.

The cord winder needs to be removed and CAREFULLY retightened to bring it back to the original tension. That's easy enough. | ||
