Salad shooter pro That is the thicker of the two on my model. I forgot just how loud these are!

BroilMaster Wow that's great! Now you can keep an eye on whatever you're slow roasting or doing a smoked ham/roast or a rack of ribs while your out there working on one of the Kirby's! Nice that you could still get OEM parts,you're probably better off. I've got a black BroilMaster on...

Canisterman Hi Hans, I just wanted to repeat what kirbylux77 wrote "All of us here at Vacuumland are better for having your insights,wisdom and knowledge." This! I've always enjoyed reading your posts and replies to others. You have a good soul. I've always wanted to meet you in person and...

Very nice I'm away from home this week or I'd look it up for you. Ben and others here have your answer, it's all in the serial number. The DS-80 is one of the most appreciated models out there. Yours looks to be in great shape. I've heard that the newer knurled fan belt is a bit hard on the...

Paul and Brian Thank you for all this info, this has been a really informative thread.

Paul. Thanks for the info. Tomorrow I begin house sitting for some friends who have a Eureka Widepath 16" they bought new decades ago. They were going to trade it in for something new that had tools on board. I said this is a big house and this vacuum cleaner has kept these shags in great shape...

Can you tell me what the difference is between Vibra Groomer and Vibra GroomerII? Of the 10 Eureka/Sanitaires I have, nine have the metal shiny chrome roller with the blue bristles encased in orange. A few of those had a rubber piece that fit over the metal end caps to cushion the rollers a...

Paul There were a lot of companies that had an Imperial in their lineup as you mentioned. Chrysler Imperial and when I was about 8yrs. old Duncan Imperial yoyos were the one to own. We can't leave out the heavily advertised Imperial margarine spread because "it's not nice to fool Mother...

Paul Earlier in this thread eurekaprince was wondering when Sanitaires first paper bag came out. I always thought that the shake out came first and later the paper. If they started originally with paper and later shake out I would bet that that was a response to the cleaning companies or...

Chili shortcut! IO still haven't replaced my crock pot that would only reach 200f on high. So in the mean time I'm back to using my stock pot and my gas stove. I got to thinking abouit how I've made chili beans where the dry beans are soaked over night and rinsed the next day.Those recipes...

Chris, Just curious, is the store at 124 M. larger than the location at 148 M? I helped a friend move his electronics/speaker repair shop after him being there 30 yrs. He also wanted to inventory everything as we moved to new place. How long did it take you to make the move? Took us 3 months...

Yessir! I have the 1931A which looks exactly like the AT, but has a 5.0 amp motor instead. Runs like a top.The bags on these are really nice, it's like they're lined with something. I may switch the plastic for a metal handle for a sturdier feel when pushing.

"what's that smell" I went looking last night for answers and ended up with people who completely refurbish vintage refrigerators and freezers.Lots of people doing it or want to do it. One place stock piles a plethora of oldies where you can buy them un-restored or you can have them do the...

Bad design? I would suggest vacuuming out the roller area after each use using a crevice attachment. I'd keep an eye on the roller end caps where the bearings are too. Sounds like this might be a high maintenance vacuum cleaner at least the roller. That's crazy having to replace the skid plate...

Hard water I think you're right. Ever so often I will run some white vinegar or CLR through the cleaners. Also my coffee maker,shower head,dishwasher,washer and steam iron.(Who irons?) My water heater is 27 yrs. old,rated for 6 yrs when new. I drain it once a year and keep the temp at 125F...

Suggestion: CALL KIRBY CALL KIRBY CALL KIRBY CALL KIRBY CALL KIRBY or CALL KIRBY CALL KIRBY....

I was thinking: Shoe cobbler Upholstery shop Auto custom upholstery shop Seamstress Someone who takes in clothes for ironing and offers sewing for repairs If Les sees this,I've heard him speak of someone here who makes bags for Kirbys, don't know if he does other brands bags but could be a...

Limited 5 year warranty I like that! You have the option of renting the cleaner before buying to see if it's what you need and like. My Bissell pro heat did produce steam with the on board heat switched on. That plus my hot water heater switched up to 140F for filling the machine. After two...

Black Jack! A pair of queens beats what I've got, I'm out. Nice score and the price is right. Such a deal!

You have good taste I read your profile. Heritage II Legend is my favorite. Good luck with your search. Can you or anyone reading this tell me what the no.13,as in HD-13 stands for?" Thanks!
