This was my near-mint condition Electrolux 330 Automatic from 1973 that I sold a while back. It was a short lived model and ran from 1973-75 and was replaced by the 345. It featured an Automatic floortool that retracted its brushes when cleaning carpets and released them automatically when vacuuming hardfloors. It would also switch itself off if it became blocked or the bag got too full and the orange light would come on. The knob at the front of the machine controlled the sensitivity of this. My 330 also has a very rare optional Turbinette floor tool, it was an early style of suction driven power head. In the video I use it with a later style hose from a 302 model as the original weaved hose tends to lose a lot of suction now because of its age.
Do you remember any Goblin vacuum cleaners from the 1970s?
lol I dont ‘remember’ any vacs from the 70’s because i wasn’t born until 87, but I know of Goblins from around that time, especially the Housemaid uprights, they were pretty cool, never used one though
i understand ryan
Wow, I have one of these but in Brown, original attachments, instruction book, its a great cleaner but seeling it tho, was a wedding present to my Mum, I have it in a box in a cupboard, a brilliant machine. It was well looked after, filters were changed every 6 months and has loads of life still in it.
WOW YOU LUCKY THING!
in my oppinion, this had to be greatest vacuum cleaner on the market!
my mum had one back in the 70’s
she used to pull 3 kids around on it when she was hoovering! id love to get my hands on one again!
its a hoover
really? I thought it was a tv lol
I do believe the brown model was the 345.
TA BUENA LA M AZAMORRA
indeed the chocolate brown cleaner was the z-345.
i am having alot of issues finding the E6 style electrolux bag in the united states
Hello, i got a electrolux 320 today
I sold Electrolux in the mid-90s and found many of these in customers’ homes in still-perfect working condition. The only reason these customers called was to buy new hoses or bags. Sometimes I would clean out their old vacuum using a newer model, and they’d salivate over the newer model – even though they didn’t need it. I never had to pressure a soul to buy. I do wish Electrolux would ditch the antiquated MLM business model though, it’s responsible for a lot of problems.
Sure
I can do a video response if u want me 2 do it
looks well cared for. check out OIL SPILL ELIMINATOR on You Tube
man you guys need to get a life…..lol
sod off twat no one asked you
song?
whats outomatic? about it?
The floor head had brushes that automatic retracted when you went from hardfloors to carpets
I’ve got the toy version of that model. I’ll be putting it on Ebay soon. I have fond memories of the 345. My mum had a 502 which was a great cleaner.
why does the light come on when its off instead of on??
its a mains light that shows that theres power reaching it from the plug, I think it also doubles up as a bag warning light. When the bags full, the vacuum switches itself off and the light comes on
yeah, it does – it lights up when the bag is full – my mom had this cleaner. I LOVE ELECTROLUX
