The Electrolux Model S is a really cute and dainty model! It is probably the lightest-weight machine they ever made. Color: Machine is pale blue; the ends are a creamy off-white. It’s one of my favorite Electroluxes because many frugal-minded housewives had the Model S when I was growing up. There is no special place to store the cord (no halo like other models and no available cord winder). You have to wrap the cord around the back of the machine. Something interesting about the Model S is that there were two versions. On the early version, the hose was light blue with off-white chevrons running through it. The combination floor/rug tool was the same style as the model E, with no spring clamp in the swivel connector to hold the wand securely. On the later version, the hose had the same colors but had off-white stripes instead of chevrons. The combination rug nozzle had a narrower suction opening on the rug side and there was a spring-clamp on the swivel connector. I used to have a later-style Model S hose but don't have one now. The dusting brush was the same on both versions. |
