Product Overview

The Electrolux EL6988E Oxygen Canister Vacuum Cleaner helps you breathe easier in more ways than one. An advanced filtration system that includes a HEPA filter cleans and freshens your home and provides welcome relief for allergy-sufferers. This compact vacuum’s powerful motor, ample tools, quiet operation, and convenient design make cleaning easier and more effective.

Hygienic Cleaning

The Oxygen’s sophisticated filtration system takes vacuuming to the next level. Featuring a HEPA filter and the patented s-bag™, which boasts a unique self-closing design, the Electrolux EL6988E captures 99.97 percent of airborne dust and allergens and prevents dust from escaping back into your home when you change the bag.

Comprehensive Vacuuming Power

Don’t let the small size of this vacuum fool you! It’s equipped with enough power and a variety of tools to make cleaning all floor surfaces and above-floor surfaces a breeze. These tools include:

  • Multi-Surface Powerhead: Features a full-sized powerhead with 3 carpet height positions, a long-life belt, and a separate powerful motor that yields incredible performance to deep clean carpets.
  • Above-Floor Cleaning Tools: Includes a dusting brush and crevice tool (conveniently stored onboard the vacuum), as well as an upholstery brush.
  • Deluxe Floor Brush: Ideal for cleaning delicate hardwood or tiled floors.

Convenient Controls

The ergonomic design of this canister vacuum makes switching between surface types quick and overall operation simple. Features include:

  • Fingertip Controls: Effortlessly switch between carpet, bare floor, and specialty cleaning brushroll settings using just the touch of a finger.
  • Integrated Power Wand System: Provides simple height adjustment and quick accessory changes.
  • Quiet Operation: Delivers noiseless cleaning with the Deep Clean ™powerhead, featuring “V” belt technology.
  • Automatic Cord Rewind: Eliminates unnecessary bending to rewind a cord after use.

Additional Features:

 

  • Electronic Dust Bag Indicator: Informs you when the bag needs to be changed, eliminating dirt overflow and keeping your family safe.
  • Low Maintenance: Access bags and filters easily. Plus, the HEPA filter typically only needs changing once each year.
  • 12-Amp Motor: Delivers exceptional cleaning power.
