    Bagless Kirby Conversion

    odd....id read or heard that there was an improvment in performance...but was used to see dirt that was left behind from other vacs, as a tool for testing i could see it worth while. use some no clog dacron as a pre-filter ...ez to clean. as a tool it makes sense...saves on kirby bags
