ha! well friend,i consider electro's(60/70's)models top of the line.i used to refinish hardwood floors from time to time,and man, those vacs can pick up some really fine dust.ppl(younger generation)would haul them to the dump thinking they were broken not knowing the vacs needed bags to turn on.score for natureboy!! around me,an older electro will go for 150-175 refurbished,not including the powerhead(carpet attachement,kills your motor tho,use sparingly).ive got a work vac,1st floor vac,2nd floor vac,and 4 or 5 in the barn.
damn,im getting hot with all this electrolux talk!!
