How electrolux differ from any other vacuum cleaner and what are the unique features?
The best vacuum is the one you will use. I had my mother's 1960 canister vacuum, and it was a pain to store and use, so I didn't use it. I bought an upright Electrolux, and it was heavy and I had to get my husband to carry it up and down stairs. I've had an Oreck, and I've had several Hoover's. Right now I have 2 Eureka Optimas--one for upstairs and one for down. They are identical and bagless. I use one or the other almost every day. Easy to store, lightweight and easy to use. Save your money; buy something lightweight, bagless, and with a 12 amp motor. Good Luck!
I have one which is over 30 years old. My particular model is bulky to store but the durability has outlasted my expectations. You can still have parts to replace in this old model (never hear that those parts are discontinued). Only thing I had replaced was the hose and it thoroughly gone through cleaned through the Electrolux dealer. I recently got an upright $150 vacuum for the basement area. This new vacuum don't even come close to get the dirt sucked out of the carpet like the old Electrolux. Guess I will have to carry the old vacuum up down the stairs since I want a good job done.
I love an electrolux they last a long time and they really work. But they can be heavy so if weight is a problem, go with an Oreck. But I Love the way the lux has that long vacuum head. And a reset button if something gets stuck and you have to pull it out. its great. I would`t go bag less they just seem to lose suction over time. Unless your willing to invest in a dyson.
they tend to last a LONG time. my mom has had hers for 20+ years. at the end of a nuclear holocaust theres gonna be nothing left but cockroaches and electrolux.
