This was one of the first Electrolux canisters I ever purchased. I gave the first one to my sister and kind of regretted it later on . Well now she’s back 😊

The only things really wrong with it were a missing screw from the generic hose, a missing knob from the bag eject control and somebody cut the cord off. I replaced the cord winder and the screw, disconnected the bag eject control, cleaned it up and while it's not the prettiest thing, it's good to go. If and when I ever get hold of a control knob, I'll reconnect the bag eject control and see if that works. The bottom line is the thing's got a whole lot of life left in it. Why somebody dumpstered it is beyond me. I'm just glad I came along when I did, knew what I was looking at and rescued it. |

@ Bill : You know you've left me speechless :-) I really appreciate your kind and complimentary feedback :-) Collecting can be both joyous and daunting , but I cant think of anything else I would rather do ! Having guys like you all around is a huge fringe benefit to this hobby and I appreciate your support :-) Thanks Bill :-) |
