Kirby Tradition That's one of the only second-generation Kirbys that I liked the look of.  Have you polished the metal at all?  Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish works wonders.  You'll be surprised how a Kirby can shine!  

John The "blue ones" you speak of are the Kirby Tradition.   The "red one" is likely the Kirby Classic III, if it looks very similar to the Tradition and has a metal Emptor, or it's the Heritage if it has a gray plastic Emptor under the orange bag.

My Heritage II Mine looks similar to yours, except mine has a translucent, dark smoke gray Mini-Emptor without the trap door on the bottom. Mine also has the disposable bag conversion to use the current style of disposable Kirby bags, although I'm currently using an older Micro Matic bag until...

Heritage II I have a Heritage II, upright only, in great shape.

Suckolux I don't think my Kirby Heritage II is my favorite model, but it's my current daily driver after my bestie bought it for me at a thrift store and we fixed it up together.   My favorite vintage model is probably the Kirby Dual Sanitronic 50.  I love the small profile and its ability...

Kirby group on Facebook?! Say WHAT?!?!  I must be a part of this!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cord and wheels? Are the cord and wheels in good shape?  If so, I'd be willing to buy those off of you.  :-)

Laverne & Shirley This was my favorite show growing up as a boy, as I was lucky enough to be a young boy when this show was still airing!  My family always gave me grief for liking this show.   I remember one episode when Shirley was vacuuming with a cannister vacuum, and holds the hose end...

This is amazing! I remember the girl next door to my grandma (who I have remained friends with) had a toy kinda like this, only way more rudimentary with no accessories, and BOY did I want one!  Of course, I was told about girls' toys vs. boys' toys, blah blah blah.  I never did get one.  ...

Welcome to the Kirby Family, Jamie! Congratulations on your Kirby Legend II, the last of the second generation of Kirby and the final model to be made before the invention of TechDrive!  Nice little piece of Kirby history you have there.   I have a Kirby Heritage II, which is the model...

Miskini Thank you so much for your reply! I have already fixed it, it did take just a few minutes. The hardest part was definitely getting the TechDrive unit out of the base pan of the Kirby. Also, this machine was very dirty inside, so I took the opportunity to clean it up a bit. All in...

So I was vacuuming at work with my boss's Kirby Ultimate G when this happened. Is this a hard fix that I should take home, or can I accomplish this at work with simple tools? Never seen this or heard of this happening before…

Cool I think that's probably one of the only models of Hoover I'd care to own.  But then again, once you jump ship on a brand, you end up collecting that whole brand as well! Restraining myself...

Service Merchandise?! OMG!  I remember that store!  We had one here in an enclave of my hometown.  I LOVED that store... thought it was so cool that you would buy the stuff you want, then go to the pick up area.  Sooner (or sometimes later), your order would come down a conveyer belt and get...

Yes please! Sending you an email now!

Ben I think this person is not a collector, just found these in a storage locker and is looking to sell them. I have a Heritage with ALL attachments except the hose.  Let me know if such a Heritage peaks your interest, although I also would prefer to sell or trade for a 500 series Kirby...

Kirby Heritage The one on the left is a Kirby Heritage from 1981-1984.  It looks like you're missing the power cord.  I already have one, and in my humble opinion, it is one of the worst performing models Kirby ever produced.  This is the last model to feature an Emptor (trap door underneath...

Johnny Woah!  No I hadn't, but I just checked it out on YouTube. Being an avid Kirby fan, I found issue with this scene.   To start, assuming proper Toe-Touch height adjustment, that Lego block couldn't get into the nozzle without the woman tilting the nozzle over to suck it up, which...

HA! This picture is from Legally Blonde: The Musical.  I actually did this show a few years back, and the guy that played Kyle the UPS Man was pretty cute, too.  Type casting!  Not as hot as this guy, for sure, but definitely a cutie!

@floor-o-matic OMG!  I absolutely LOVED that entire album when I was a kid!  It was called Twisted Christmas by Bob Rivers.  I loved "Wreck the Malls", "We Wish You Weren't Living with Us", and "The Restroom Door Said Gentlemen".  Now THOSE were amazing holiday songs that anyone could enjoy...
