Electrolux “THE BOSS” Upright Vacuum Cleaner –
Very useful upright vacuum cleaner. Very good working order. The only problem is that the “Back Saver Handle” (heavy duty plastic) split some years ago, and has been ‘repaired’ with silver sticky tape - see main photo. You can’t apply full pressure if holding the handle right at the top, so I always hold it at the silver tape part, and have never had a problem. About 1.2 Mt tall, all the tools are mounted on the back - 2-part extension tubes, nozzle, combined flat and round brush (worn) attachment – see 3rd photo. The stretchy hose can be disconnected from the base, to attach the extension tube(s) and/or attachments. Also at the back is a carrying handle; the machine is quite light (about 8.5 Kg, according to our bathroom scales!). It has a lead of about 6.5 Mt, that has to be wound round the mounting points at the side – see 3rd photo. It is bag-less – the dust-collector on the front is transparent (so you can see when it’s full), and unclips and lifts off easily, to allow emptying. It has a watt motor, and a height adjustable head – see 2nd photo. The only reason we’re selling it is that we decided to buy a new VAX during their online sale.
