Thanks Rob for sharing this. A local Aerus Dealer told me they were getting rid of the plastic wands and going back to the metal...I guess he was wrong. Just like Hoover in the early days, all three vacuums offered have the very same motor, same air flow, just a difference in design and filtering. Personally, give me the Clasic, some metal wands for the bare floor tool and the sidekick and I would be happy. I don't like the plastic electric wands on the other two models. Morgan | ||

Wow, its about time they updated their website. I just checked it the other day and it had still not been updated. The new Gaurdian and the Legacy have the same "airwatts" rating, althought the Guardians motor is 10amps while the Legacy is 11amps. I thought that the new Gaurdian would have a higher rating as it has a stronger motor. I'm still not impressed by the new Gaurdian, I dont understand why Lux doesnt fit their newer motor and HEPA filter into the Legacy. I have an Epic 6000 and they certainly could squeeze a filter in under the tool cady. I prefer having the tools stored on the machine, not on the wands. The design of the Legacy/6500/6000 has been around for close to 20 years now and its still very functional. The machine is light weight, easy to manuever, and in my opinion good looking. I had the 6500 a while back and if it had a more powerful motor and a less bulky hose handle and wands, I never would have gotten rid of it. It saw a lot of use and never skipped a beat. I would love for Lux to find a way to make their machines more quiet, especially since machines in the price range, like Miele, pride themselves on making quiet running machines. The older Luxes were much more quiet and their motors had such a nice sound to them, guess they just don't make them like they used too!

the Gaurdian floor tool is the same as its cousin the tri-st Joe, You are absolutely right! The handgrip and wands are Tri-star as well. I don't find the hand grip very comfortable, but that's just my two cents worth. | ||

European Lux line of vacs.....
From what I remember reading, the Lux line of vacs in Europe was the division of Swedish Electrolux that sold vacs door-to-door. It is now a large international direct-marketing vacuum company, which includes the strangely-named "Eureka-Forbes" vac company in India. Here's their website: CLICK HERE TO GO TO eurekaprince's LINK | ||
