    Anyone have info on the new Kirby ?

    Yes I forgot... That burnt orange is "in" right now. We have a couple Ikea lamps in our family room with shades that color, they look very nice with the light gold walls.

    Anyone have info on the new Kirby ?

    I think the orange Heritage was quite nice, and would make a nice departure from the dull color's they've been using since the beginning of the G series.

    Pics of my latest toys

    Joe That room is one of the "spare" bedrooms aka my vacuum room. I've collected a few old plumbing fixtures, that toilet was one of them, it can flush ANYTHING. I've got a video up on YT of it flushing down TP that was packed into the bowl. MY room is the one where I took the photo of my...

    Pics of my latest toys

    The correct wand for my new Queen showed up. So I finally got some photo's. The airflow on the Queen is insane! keep it away from your face it might suck your brains out! I put a new cone in and then vacuumed the room where the photo of the Queen was taken and after vacuuming it I looked in...

    The New Style Sanitaire 7 amp motor

    who is it made by? and where is it made? The newer style motor is in my brand new SC688 that I got for christmas but there is no visible tags on the motor at all. My SC888 has the older pancake motor and I know that's made by Ametek in Mexico.

    What do you think of the Shark Navigator?

    I say Hoover, that was a pretty neat looking machine.

    Actually, I contacted the seller back on Saturday and let them know of my dissatisfaction and they responded promptly and said they would look on Monday for the correct wand. Today I got an email stating they sent it out today. So they seem to be very on top of things, and hopefully it should...

    Got the Queen out the box and put together today. Come to find out it didn't come with the correct wand, instead of the original one it's the one that matches the mismatching powerhead....no wonder why it was hard to maneuver the powernozzle around. Thinking about what I should do to solve that...

    Joe I went and found some pictures of the red Majestic with the powernozzle that this one has. Should be a pretty good first FQ, already have another machine coming so I didn't want to spend a ton of money on a 2nd vac. My grandma had a FQ in the 70s before she got her Kirby, I wish I would...

    What machine would that powerhead be from then? and what would the original be? (hopefully it's not too much of a frankenvacuum)

    Filter Queen Majestic

    I just bought a used FQ Majestic on Ebay. It looks like a pretty good deal for 179$ with tax and shipping. The seller said it was approximately a 1995 model, I otherwise have no clue to it's actual age other than that, and it doesn't look too old. It has the metal power head, I'm not sure when...

    Polished And Shined Kirby Heritage (pics inside)

    The Heritage series has a very musical tune to it. I get so relaxed vacuuming with it that it's like meditating. hahaha
