Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Hi everyone,

I just got suckered in to buying an Aerus Lux Guardian Ultra cannister vacuum. The guy told me it was the top of the line and normally sells for $1799. I had a very old (15+ years old) electrolux that I traded in and I ended up paying $1000 plus tax. Did I get a good deal? It seems like an awful lot of money for a vacuum but I was told I shouldn't have to buy another vacuum for about 20 years or so. If it matters, I am from Maryland. It seems so difficult to shop around because the dealers don't want to give you prices over the phone. My mother was the biggest influence. She loves her electrolux vacuums.

Hi Venson,

Yeah, maybe I should have just had the vacuum repaired but I was thinking it would cost a few hundred dollars to repair it and the guy said he would sell me the upright for $700. So I was thinking for just $400 more I could have a brand new one. Then I ended up buying the canister for a $1000, lol. So I don't know. I really was just thinking it was time for a new one, I guess.

Did you get your free 100 pack of bags with your purchase?

Did you get  the 3 free hepa filters that come with the promotion on that particular machine?

Do you get the lifetime free pick up and delivery on supplies and service.?

Hello MOLE:

Technically, if you buy the 100 package of bags, buy the 3 HEPA's and buy the lifetime pick-up and delivery, the vacuum is thrown in for free.

Rocketman,

  Most any vacuum sold these days that has bags will almost always come with a couple of extra bags except  HOOVER.  Bags are offered by me for a few leads that I could use a customer 's name. If you got the deal (price) you said you did , how could you ask the man to take more money out of his pocket.

   You asked about the water units. It is Reverse osmosis. where it is better than the competition is it's efficiency. Most all units have a 10% efficiency rating. For every 1,000 gallons that  runs thru the unit you lose 900 gallons as waste water. The Purelux unit is 75% efficient. 1000 gallons goes in 250 gallons of waste water comes out.  So when you use the water unit and get  7.5 gallons , you had only 2.5 gallons of wastewater. Far better than  get one gallon and have 9 gallons of wastewater.

Two units are available.  The best way to learn more is go on the website- WWW.Aerusonline.com and go into the water section. They work great.

I'll check it out right now. How much can I expect to pay for these two units? If you are in the business, maybe I can just buy from you?

Hello Procare:

Thanks for responding. 

Do you know how and why Aerus entered the reverse osmosis water purification business with Purelux?  It seems like a vacuum business diversion and not a logical and complimentary by-product that would coexist equally.  Does Aerus employ a separate cadre of salespeople for these units or the same salespeople as vacuums?

Electrolux entered the H2O purification field for the first time in the era of the model 'J'. The unit was called the "AquaLux" it was sold by the same salespeople as the vacuums. Alas, it was ahead of its time.
No one was interested.
