Vacuums

[Rachel]

I really liked my Electrolux, but they don't make the narrow ones I had anymore.

Yes they do, Randi. Only it is now just called the LUX. I'm on my second one. Such a dumb move to sell the Electrolux name to another manufacturer. People think they are getting the original Electrolux and they are not. Check out the Lux http://www.aerusonline.com/products/.../canisters.cfm

Be forwarned, the price is not for the faint of heart.

After burning up several of the $200 uprights, every one to two years, that I purchased from Kmart or Sears, I went to vacuum store, explained my situation and ended purchasing a Riccar upright. I have had it for over six years now, have replaced a couple of bearings and even the motor, recently, but it is the best vacuum I have ever owned. When I bought it, it came with a small canister vacuum, too.

I hate bagless now that I have had a couple. We do have a Eureka ( I think) that is our backup vacuum, but the dust and mess from it makes me sick. I buy the more expensive filter bags for my Riccar and they do help.

I think I paid $400 +, over six years ago, but it was well worth the money. The tune ups and replacement parts have been very reasonable.
