For above-floor cleaning, the vacuum provides an array of on-board attachments including a telescopic tube, a hose and hose handle, a crevice tool, and a combination nozzle/brush for curtains, bookshelves, frames, and more. Other highlights include a high-efficiency motor, low noise output of only 60 DBA, a replaceable motor filter, and a bag-full indicator. This canister vacuum comes with a special foot-activated on and off button and a carrying handle. The adjustable suction power feature offers suction control on the vacuum cleaner as well as on the hose handle. When finished, a foot pedal rewinds the cord into the unit for compact storage. An ‘S dust bag’ comes included. The vacuum cleaner measures approximately 12.5 by 11 by 14 inches and carries a two-year limited warranty.
Designed with a healthier planet in mind, the vacuum cleaner's construction features 55-percent plastic from recycled materials, plus 80-percent of its packaging comes from recycled unbleached cardboard.
Energy savings and recycling rank highly as pro-climate activities in consumer research studies. The Electrolux Ultra-silencer Green meets the demand for energy efficiency and more sustainable material use. Without compromising quality, performance or noise, it presents:
• 33% greater energy efficiency
• 55% recycled plastic
An efficient suction fan unit combined with our Dust Magnet Floor Nozzle helps deliver the same performance in terms of dust pick-up with a lower wattage motor. Vacuum motors often waste energy by producing heat. Our 1,250W motor and nozzle produce comparable dust pick-up and little heat.
Production and Transport
With recycled material, we consume 90% less energy during manufacturing than is used to produce the same components with virgin plastics. By using 55% recycled PP content for the body of the vacuum, 2 liters of crude oil and 80 liters of water are saved per vacuum cleaner. Ultrasilencer Green is manufactured in Lehel, Hungary. Products are distributed from the plant by truck. Through its Green Spirit program, Lehel has a program in place to contribute to Group targets to reduce energy and water use.
Make Change for a Better Climate With the Ultrasilencer Green, we aim to change the perception that high wattage equates to greater cleaning performance, by promising the same cleaning effect with lower energy. ‘Make a change for a better climate’ communicates that smart purchasing choices can impact consumer carbon footprints.
The use phase represents about 75% of the product’s environmental impact. In its lifecycle, cutting energy used to operate the vacuum presents our greatest opportunity to save CO2. On average, a vacuum is used an hour a week and is expected to service a home for ten years. In its lifetime, the Ultrasilencer Green can save: 364kWh of energy; enough to make a 60W light bulb burn 24 hours for 253 days and 320kg CO2 emissions.

Excellent light, quiet sucker!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Electrolux UltraSilencer Green Canister Vacuum Cleaner, EL6984A (Kitchen)
We finally made the plunge and converted from carpet to hardwood floors. So naturally we needed new equipment for cleaning floors. Growing up, my parents always had Electrolux vacuum cleaners, the cylindrical (heavy!) bag types, and they seemed to work forever! We went looking around to all the dept stores and home improvement places, read some reviews (on Amazon) and decided that this model would be very nice. We didn't actually try it out at the stores, but checked the features, build quality and sturdiness.
All seemed good, and we ordered one on Amazon. As is usually the case, the items arrived quickly and in very good shape. Having run this unit through its paces several times now, I can say that it lives up to our expectations and needs extremely well! It is light (a very big plus for my spouse), maneuverable and QUIET.....The slider control for the motor speed (and therefore suction level)is very convenient and smooth. We like the bag approach as well as the HEPA filter. Some people may feel the bag is a hassle to have to replace - Having had to empty out the old upright bagless canister, I can safely say that the bag is MUCH better. You don't have to deal with the dust, smell and stuff in the canister! The self winding cord is also very smooth and sufficiently long to give good range for vacuuming. It has the usual complement of attachments to get in small out of the way places and to vacuum furniture. The tube can be adjusted to any length which is nice. I'm not sure what some of the other reviewers are trying to pick up but for hardwood or tiles floors and even (low pile rugs)this little "egg" works just fine and efficiently picks up dust, hair, pet dander, etc.... Bottom line: I recommend this vacuum cleaner.

Exceptional Quality,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Electrolux UltraSilencer Green Canister Vacuum Cleaner, EL6984A (Kitchen)
Purchased this vacuum cleaner about a month ago and use it almost daily. I already had 4 canister vacuum cleaners of different brands because I use one each for the upstairs, downstairs, basement and garage, and one needed to be retired. Our entire house (including finished full basement) has either solid wood or tile floors - with a lot of Persian rugs everywhere. I do not own a vacuum cleaner with a power brush head because I do not want to beat and scratch the wood floors. This Electrolux was designed to be used on solid floors and area rugs. It is very quiet, significant suction, lots of features and the build quality is outstanding. It was made in Hungary. It is far the best vacuum I now own and will be buying another one or two. The old vacuums will be given away.

Electrolux's Reputation Continues As The Best Buy,
By L. L. Dunbar "Dunbar Galleries" (Houston) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Electrolux UltraSilencer Green Canister Vacuum Cleaner, EL6984A (Kitchen)
I also grew up with Electrolux and always wanted one as good and as dependable as that medal cannister that we used to drag around the house. It seemed as if I spend a lot of money on big, bulky, heavy vacuums that even with hepa filters and self propelling are just a lot to use. I have used a cleaning service for years now and do not own a vacuum cleaner anymore. Just a large commercial one for the large bird cages. In the spirit of the recession I thought I could do my own cleaning. What will I need? A vacuum cleaner.
I have stone floors and wood floors with oriental carpets and kilims - which are flat weave carpets. My house is also two stories with a flight of stairs about 20 feet up. I also have a lot of birds and 2 puppies. So, I saw this vacuum. 14 lbs is easy to carry with that compact size and great handle. Going green makes me feel good, too. I used it today. Wow. The adjustible suction and noise control, light weight, adjustible heights and swivel everything - I could not believe how easy it was to use. It picked up everything and I could easily go off the carpet onto stone or wood just by pushing the suction adjustment with my finger.The edge of the carpets did not get picked up in the suction moving off to the floor and it did not grab the threads on the edges, either. Under cabinets, beds, chairs, flat up against the side of the wall without scratching. Picked up bird seeds, hair, and a little dry puppy poo I missed on a carpet. The variable noise control is a great idea around little animals. My little pups tried to play with it. Just perfect. Thanks.
