faulty wheel design September 23, 2008
I purchased the oxy 3 in January 2006. Within a few months, the wheel broke off and I took it to the nearest service shop for repair. The repairman stated that this problem was very common and that he had replaced several wheels. Several months later, the new wheel broke off again, so I took it back for an additional repair. The opposite wheel has now broken off, so I will likely find a new vacuum to purchase.
The product does clean carpet and hardwood well and it is very quiet, but it's obviously impractical to use with only one wheel! Additionally, finding bags and filters locally for the vacuum is impossible...I have to purchase on-line.
 Electrolux EL5035A Oxygen Upright Vacuum Cleaner July 22, 2008
After less than three years of light use, one of the front wheels broke off. It appears this is a common problem. Whoever designed the wheel assembly should be fired. The wheel is held on with thin flimsy pieces of plastic that, now clearly, are easily broken. The broken wheel looks to be impossible to repair, unless you replace half the cleaner. I paid a lot for the cleaner ($500) because it carried the Electrolux name and I figured I was buying quality. Boy, they sure suckered me on that one!
extremely dissatisfied!!! May 6, 2008
I bought this machine to replace one that I had used for over 15 years. I never had any problems with the first one, so I spent the extra money on another Electrolux machine. What a mistake, I have had this one less than 6 months and have had nothing but problems with it. The company is no help and the repair center people just laughed when I told them how unhappy I was with it. They have many people with the same complaints!!! The height adjuster has totally stopped working after being repaired twice, the attatchment door doesn't stay closed and the bag full light doesn't work at all. I wish I had spent the money on a cheaper brand then I wouldn't be so disappointed. Do yourself a favor and don't buy this machine, it is a cheaply made grossly over priced piece of junk!!!!
Broken wheel March 8, 2008
Like others have pointed out, my wheel has broken off as well after less than a year of use. The lock that keeps it upright broke off about 3 months ago. I sure wish I would've read these reviews before I made my purchase. DO NOT buy this product unless you like burning money. They did get the motor right as it does vacuum well but the rest of it is falling apart.
AWFUL! RUN AWAY! February 20, 2008
I recieved this as a wedding gift, from my grandmother who has has her Electrolux since she moved to this country 35 years ago (no I'm not kidding) she had also used nothing but Electrolux in Cuba as her family before her had done. Little did we know that this is NOT a REAL Electrolux...they were recently bought out by Eureka. I was so excited when I got it, it looked so pretty and well made...except it wasn't. It doesn't suck up a thing...sometimes I'll go over a splinter on the carpet 5 or 6 times before giving up and picking it up by hand. I was so dissapointed with the suction I tried to have it serviced (2 year warranty) but they told me I had to drive 2 hours away and that if it wasn't a warranty issue I'd be charged $200 just for looking at it (pretty stupid when the thing cost 400 to begin with). I finally took it back to the store which offered me an exchange but surprise surprise the new one has WORSE suction than the first...I'm taking it back today and getting a Dyson. Beware!
