Can anyone tell me what year this General Electric upright vacuum model # AVF 18 is? Or anything about it? It was my grandmothers, it still works. Thank you. | ||

Hmm
I know some people will have exact info. I want to say 1948 but 1948-1953 is likely the years produced.
Kenmore, GE and premier made similar models around this time. I mean like Chevy/gm/Cadillac similar. This vacuum something unique about the brush roll and it's design is similar to 1979 Kirby tradition. I believe it's first rotating brush roll and it is pretty powerful. I do like the vacuum very classy look. Idk this popped in my head. Vacuums resemble car body styles. This vacuum resembles just after WW2 car styling. If I'm wrong I stand corrected but there you go Les | ||

Kirbyklekter,I thought it would look weird on the hardwood floor since it is a vacuum...appreciate your sense of humor tho! Les, I was thinking it was late 1920's. Not sure. Also not sure what to do with it. I dont want to keep it,didnt know if I could sell it, or if it is a Goodwill item. | ||

Wrong. I didn't look at the pics that close. I found on eBay the premier version I believe pr42 perhaps meaning the year. Im pretty sure I was right on first rotating brush roll.
I'm attaching a pic of the premier version. Les
