Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Hey all.... I just bought an upright from Craig's List for 15 dollars....  Not a bad price for a Lux upright.  The thing is it's really weird looking compared to their other uprights, and I can't find ANY information about it online.... it's no on the Electrolux posters (the ones that show all the models made), and there isn't a manual for it on the Aerus web site.... if anyone knows anything about this machine, please tell me!  I'm going to go pick it up now from the friend that got it for me (I had to work the day the seller was available)....  Here's a picture I found from Google images just so you know what I am talking about. 

Thanks for any info you can provide, I do appreciate it!

Thanks for answering so fast.... it's a model U160A.... Just got it and cleaned it up.... even came with the book (no attachments though)..... I do like it, but the power nozzle is super whiny (more so than my Diamond Jubilee, and that says something), and the handle and upper cord hook are flimsy... also the suction isn't tremendous, but Luxes never are.... handle is super comfortable though  :o)  Neat machine...

Lux uprights never have been known for their suction and airflow....yet their durability is hard to beat ..solid construction and ez to work on but i personally prefer a trri-force panasonic 585 or a riccar 8925..for pure power and deep cleaning.....just my view.
