Current Vacuum collection

Just the one vintage Kirby that is in use.

What are your dream machines yet to be found?

I'd like a new vacuum that is lighter to lift.

What are your earliest and favorite vacuum memories?

Learning from Mom how to use the vacuum, change the belt, clean the bag. She inherited the 1956 Kirby 516 from her mom.

What is the history of vacuum you have owned?

I have only ever had the one that is 1956 Kirby and would like to own a lighter one to lift now that I am older.

Have you ever worked on, repaired and/or restored any vacuum cleaners?

Just enough to keep the old one going - had it refurbished twice in 30 years.
