This is a very odd design for an upright vacuum. I love the way it sounds when running though, so quiet, and I do love that almost whistle sound when it turns off, it kind of reminds me of a Sebo Essential G/Automatic X in that regard.
Interesting and informative - thank you! Jae would be honored if he were here. Electrolux Corporation's automatic upright was designed by Fred R. Burgess and George Schick for Consolidated Foods. According to the manual 'Automatic' referred to the "change bag" light that lights when the bag is full or missing (by industry definition an "automatic" nozzle has no height adjuster but "automatically" adjusts itself). The patent was filed in October 1976 (which is around the time production would have begun) and granted in August 1978. The 'E' model number suffix apparently stands for 'enhanced' and was used on several models that were improved. Doesn't this model have an onboard clean-out rod?
@@paco3343 oh yes! It does actually! I was wondering what that was for! Thank you for the information! It’s actually a really interesting machine! Thank you again for watching!
@@kenc4104 haha yeah it’s definitely not a looker lol it’s interesting though because Electrolux thought that it was going to be the way of the future and then it flopped due to quality control. Thanks for watching!
