So one chance day as we were using our central vacuum and noticed some burnt plastic smell coming through the air. Appears we had a piece of paper covering the air intake for our vac and the motor appeared to be arcing. I'm glad we noticed this before burning down our house with the central vac. No a great way to spend the weekend. The central vac is crucial for our busy family. So I contacted this shop by finding it by way of Google. Sammy the guy working there was really helpful and offered to meetup on a Saturday. Vacuum shops are an interesting graveyard of many old models and parts. Here his specialty is Electrolux. He showed me he had a couple of models over 60 years old he refurbished still in working order. This was the Dyson vacuum before Dyson models came out with their sleek sexy minimal style. He did a test an showed me how the motor was toast. He had a replacement and offered to do it the same day and would clean up the unit. I went downtown to run some errands and came back and it was in great shape and looked like new. Awesome service and price was reasonable for a replacement. Paid cash and worked out an amicable deal for both parties.
If you have an Electrolux this is the place to go. read more
