Human... Hi. I wanted to share these pics here since I just got my Heritage 1 back from Kirby this week after a rebuild. I also have included pics of one of my Classic Omega's after it came back from Kirby last month. I saved the original bag from the Heritage as it has the white tab the...

Fred, Gosh, I had forgotten about the Tan G and E. Was the Tan G complete? I remember the E came from a Air Hostess friend of mine--it belonged to her mother-in-law. Maybe set that one aside and I can ship it without Birdie finding out. We are building a new home and the vacuum collection...

Hey Fred, If I come for a visit will you save the UltraLux for me? Then I'll ship it from there back home.

Tom, that is a beauty! I'm, "pea green", with envy. I know you will treasure and take care of that Air-Way. I'm looking forward to seeing it next year.

Hi Tom and Donnie! Hey are you still giving away a free quart of eggnog with every vacuum purchase during December like you did last year?

Tom and Donnie, Congratulations on your NPR radio broadcast! And, a very nice picture of the two you posted here. Still planning on seeing you next month and I will want to hear all about it firsthand. Great work guys! Charlie (PS--Save that Montgomery Wards upright for me!)

If they are selling 30,000 units a month--think about that for a moment--30,000 vacuums in one month. Lets see that would be 360,000 Kirbys a year! With those kind of numbers why would they be motivated to change a thing? I'm not sure what that would translate to in gross sales but they seem...

We might even get, "Our Lady Of The Vacuums", there: Miss Tania Voigt. I know she wants to visit. We talked last week and it was discussed. I remember how much fun we had when Todd and I visited there and then later with Tania and Duane. I bet Duane like to visit as well. I went home with...

Hey Tom and Hans... I have nearly all those newsletters as well and I ditto your thoughts about the contents and authors. Charles Lester and Richard Klein had a wonderful creative knack with putting those issues together---something I did not possess but did the best I could at the time, later...

Amen.

I sold both of those vacuums privately. One sold for over $1000, the other for just under $1000. Remember the condition. Both were working, usable vacuums. Finding the correct belts for the DirtMaster was NO easy task! Also finding a professional polisher that was willing to work on...

Nice work Tom! Beautiful and I can't wait to visit and play with them ALL! My mouth kind of waters looking at those 1920s and 1930s models.....not even to mention the Hoovers.

Tried the HEPA bags today........... On the suggestion from Blackheart, I ordered the HEPA bags on the day he posted about them and they arrived today. I used them today in my fairly new CS with the 12' hose and they work great! I only vacuumed the living room and dining room, (it was...

Hey, that picture of the Lux lineup--tres magnifique!! I've already picked put the one I want to add to my Guardian Platinum upright and canister. I think Lux/Aerus will definitely see a spike in sales once your store and web site are up and running. Kudos! Charlie

Tom Best wishes with the new museum! I really enjoyed the time you gave to me, Tania and Duane in the past at the former location. Tania and I recently talked about making a trip to see you sometime this year. We will definitely look forward to seeing YOUR museum that you solely own and...

Was/Is there something to identify the 3 row brush roll used initially in the Hospital G? I was told that later in the production and possibly including the tan G version that the nozzle used a 2 row brush roll. Evidently the 3 row was too much torque on the motor and they burned out. My...

Andrew, I sent an email to you at your address listed in your profile. I have some information on U style HEPA bags. Charlie

I recommend the Guardian Platinum. I have the canister and matching upright and really like both of them. The canister is very quiet, variable speed control, excellent filtration, quiet power nozzle, true 6 ft. hose and even looks good! The upright twin motor is also quiet, versatile and the...

I have a two-car oversized garage that is carpeted. It helps keep the house cleaner in that it catches the schmutz from our shoes and any dust that may leak in during windy weather. It also makes it easy to keep the garage clean. With that said, I use a Kirby Sentria to vacuum it with the HEPA...

Electrolux/Aerus no longer makes bags for these models. There were 3 distinct versions to match the corresponding canisters. I bought one NIB about 15 years ago from a Lux dealer. It was the gold/yellow one matching the Super J just like Keither's that is pictured. The performance was...
