Keeping your home clean is essential for a happy life. Electrolux has been helping people do just that for many years. But they’ve taken the idea of cleaning floors to the next level with the Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner which not only keeps your floors dust-free but also keeps the air you’re breathing purified. Think of this as a two-in-one vacuum cleaner. While it is picking up the dust and dirt from your carpets and floors it is also recycling the air you're breathing and “cleaning” that as well. Not only will you see the difference on your floors but you’ll be inhaling that fresh air.
The Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum cleaner features a patented s-bag collector which perfectly contains all the nasty dust and dander irritants that might have crept into your living space. This is part of the HEPA filtration system on the Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner that also filters these impurities out of the air. This particular design affords a safe trapping system for everything that is collected by the cleaner so that when you swap out the filter bags none of that dust is going to fly back into the air. And the HEPA filter continues to work even when the vacuum cleaner is on stand-by mode.
The modern design of the handle on this vacuum puts the controls right at your fingertips. This will allow you to instantly switch the height adjustment to flow from carpets to hardwood floors with the mere press of a button. Whether you have deep shag or smooth flooring, operating the Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum is a complete breeze.
Deep cleaning action is what the Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum cleaner promises and what it delivers. Not only does the power head have its unique working motor but it’s also amazingly quiet. The electronic dust bag indicator lets you know right away when it’s time to toss out the dust bag. Having an overflowing collection of dust isn’t going to help with the cleaning or the breathing!
The retractable power cord and attached cleaning arm allows you to tuck your Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum cleaner into a closet without any fuss. The Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum cleaner also comes with several cleaning tool attachments that extend your cleaning power. Now you can smoothly vacuum down drapes and curtains as well as seat cushions. The telescopic handle will also help extend your reach to ceilings and behind furniture. There isn’t a spot that will be left untouched with the Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum cleaner.
Hygienic Cleaning
Patented s-bag™ traps the dust for easy disposal. HEPA filtration traps dust and allergens. The Oxygen combines the superior filtration of a HEPA filter with the innovative, self-closing design of an Electrolux s-bag™ to capture 99.97% of airborne dust and allergens and to prevent dust from escaping back into your home when you change the bag.
Convenient Controls
Carpet and bare floor controls are at your fingertips, and the automatic cord rewind means no bending to wrap and untangle cords. You can quickly switch between carpets and hard floors by controlling the brushroll with controls at your fingertips.
Superior Versatility
Uninterrupted above-floor cleaning is simple with tools stored in the handle and a telescopic wand. Height adjustment, variable speed controls on the handle and well-crafted tools make cleaning between your carpet and hard floor surfaces easy.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
Cord could be longer, and the hose tends to bend a little new cannister. Could be a problem area in future, too early to tell now. Other than that, love it

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
The EL6988E is much improved from the EL6988D. The issues that some users had with the power tool has been addressed.
The power head has been improved and is more durable.
It looks much nicer also.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
Within a month of purchasing, the plastic piece that holds the powerhead to the arm broke off and was sucked into oblivion. Warranty covered the repair, thankfully. Also, the bag full light doesn't work and the bag is extremely difficult to remove if full. I paid about [$] for the machine with several discounts and it was barely worth it.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
I inherited Electroluxes from both my grandmother and mother and when I needed another sweeper for a vacation home I was dismayed at the price of the bells and whistles canister. This was a wonderful compromise - all the cleaning power and dependability without the steep price.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
This vacuum performs very satisfactorily and is half the price of the number 1 rated in a popular consumer magazine. Best value by far for my money and I've purchased two of them.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
I am a big fan of canister vacuums, but to be really useful they need to have all the tools on board. This only has two of the four so it really limits your efficiency and flexibility when vacuuming.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
The manual needs more information. For example, I lost suction to my powerhead. I first checked my manual and it only contains two troubleshooting ideas: vacuum cleaner doesn't run; it gets wet. Neither applied. I called Elextrolux to see if they could help me. The representative was very pleasant but perplexed. She was willing to send what she thought could be the problem at no charge. When I hung up, I turned the powerhead over to see if I could possibly get it going again; and to my amazement I spotted a tiny reset button. I pushed it and the powerhead worked again! I canceled the replacement part and was unable to talk with the same rep. I hung up thinking that the rep who cancelled the order could care less about my input. The manual should include a trouble shoot that says powerhead doesn't suction. And I'm not even sure the manual addresses the reset button at all. All these comments are referring directly to what Elextrolux could do to improve the product. [...]. Thank you.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT EVEN THOUGH CONSUMER REPORTS RATED IT HIGH BECAUSE THERE IS A FLAW. ONE MONTH AFTER BUYING IT A SMALL PLASTIC PIECE BROKE IN THE NECK OF THE POWER NOZZLE SO THAT THE WAND WON'T STAY ATTACHED. THE ELECTROLUX REPAIR SHOP SAID THEY HAD SEEN A NUMBER OF THESE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT THEY HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET A NEW PART OR JUST REPLACE THE WHOLE POWER NOZZLE BUT THESE HAVE BEEN ON BACK ORDER. SO IT WORKS FINE ON BARE FLOORS AND FURNITURE WHICH IS THE BULK OF OUR NEED BUT WE HAVE A LOANER VACUUM FROM THE REPAIR STORE WE HAVE TO USE FOR OUR CARPET AND RUGS. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH THE COMPANY REPRESENTATIVE WHO ASSURES ME THAT THE PART WILL BE SOON AVAILABLE BUT IF I AM ABLE TO GET A FULL REFUND I WILL BUY ANOTHER BRAND.

When using the carpet feature, the handle can twist and the unit pulls where it wants to.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
I have an equal amount of carpet/hardwood floors in my house. Powerful suction, too powerful in some situations, would be nice if the suction was adjustable. The floor tool is too big, needs to be redesigned. Seems to push dirt around rather than suck it up. Nozzle and small brush storage in handle is handy however it would be nice to have on board storage for everything. Very lightweight and compact. Does a great job with carpets.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
My Aussie's shedding has killed several previous vacuums. This one's design manages vast amounts of dog hair easily.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
I love the canister, as I can get under furniture and into corners with it. I love the carpet attachment: it really gets up the pet fur. I love the hard-floor attachment. It's wide and flexible, and can reach into corners.
The only thing I don't like so far is that the carpet attachment doesn't flex as much sideways as I would like.

The platic neck on the powerhead cracked after six months. Cheap plastic [*] comes to mind. Don't be fooled by the electrolux name...."ain't what she used to be".

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
This is a great vacuum the only better vacuum would be central vacuuming. I have a large dog that sheds alot and this vacuum is the first to actually pick up all the hair even on his dog bed. The only con is that the vacuum got stinky after picking up so much dog hair but after changing the bag it was sentless again. It works great on hardwood and carpet ssssuuuperrrr suction power almost scary (don't get your curtains caught or it will most likely rip the rod holding the curtains off the wall) Yikes

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
This vacuum cleaner works fine. The only negative is that the pipe came apart from the power head and had to be put back together. The clip that holds it together is made of plastic. I hope it doesn't break in the future, as replacement may be an inconvience. Besides this one event, I am very happy with the purchase.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
My last vacuum was purchased around 1988. I decided it was time. I did my research and found what I thought would be the best match for me. I not only got the best match but a good deal as well.

Comments about Electrolux Oxygen Vacuum Cleaner EL6988:
The wand has a cheap plastic c clamp that holds the wand onto the motorized brush head. This keeps popping off. I hand to use wire to hold it in place. Be carefull when reconnecting all wand parts, you may bend elcectrical prongs.They look like they break easy. The Vacuum works great, the parts are cheaply made.It does pick up dog hair, and is light to carry.
