After a long wait, finally got to pick this up yesterday (this was an eBay purchase from a while back, Charles posted a link to the auction in one thread). It's in beautiful condition, could use a cleaning however. Yesterday I washed the cloth bag by hand and let it dry in the sun (80+ degrees...

OHH... Went back and looked at the pics again and saw it has a brush roll (motorized or air driven?). But still, holy cow! That's more than I paid my dream machine (that I will be finally picking up on Friday)

Looks pretty nice. http://cgi.ebay.com/VINTAGE-1929-EUREKA-VACCUM-EX-COND-MUST-SEE-COVER-/310238922184?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0

The bag burst because it's a DVC. That is the best way to ruin a Miele, by using generic bags. It's like a Lincoln, only use premium gasoline....OR ELSE (dun dun dun). I remember when I bought my Mieles our little Florida con-artist recommended I use cut to fit Kenmore bags in them. Not even...

A Dual Sanitronic 50 or 80.

WHOAAAAAAAAH!!!

Oh WOW. The 88 with the hassock is...I'm speechless. That is number one one my dream machine list now. I'd kill for one. The Lux itself is something to admire, but that hassock...love the Compacts with hassocks (fortunate to own a very nice C6 complete and original C6 in the hassock). I just...

Someday you'll hear somebody say "I was not able to figure out how to plug it in and see how it works".

Somebody already answered while I was typing my response, but all of the answers hit the nail on the head.

Question: "Are paper bag liners available to place inside the cloth bags?" Answer: Yes, however you'll need a plastic adapter that attaches to the blower/motor end of the Royal, slip the paper bag onto the adapter fill tube, and reattach the cloth bag. Question: "Are replacement bags still...

Gruesome indeed.

Upon searching eBay earlier, I spotted this and just about had a heart attack. However, when looking at the pics, what a disappointment... It's not "new", for sure. Now somebody could buff out the aluminum and find a replacement bag, they'd have a nice mostly original Kirby with the original...

That GE is fine. And it's in Puyallup Washington so I could pick it up locally. Right now I'm in the cat mode. Slowly backing up with the tush in the air, ready to pounce on the prey.

Oh, is this some sort of repair? Just looks a little odd with the screw sticking out.
