@kloveland. from my experience with Rainbows, the clogging of the filters are mostly from people not changing them over time...and vacuuming up stuff that it wasn't designed to...but more than that last point, I noticed NOT changing the water often enough contributes to the dirt/dust NOT being...

good grab on that Diamond edition. That D50 is one of my favs too b/c of the lighted 'kirby' emblem on the hood....get it if you can!

great information Ben (KirbyclassicIII)!!!!! is there a way I can save this info from the site other than copying each page you posted??

ya can't go wrong with Royal uprights for deep carpet cleaning ( not heavy and unweldy )or their little brother Prince models! nice

wow. no Royal Prince models?

nice $ for that! conrats

ditto on Humans' ownerships....royal 501

good for you Ben, I know you've wanted one of these for a LONG time! congrats

i contstructed a HEPA bag to fit it....I think I used a type O. took some glueing etc but work nicely. So true what dysonman1 wrote about the suction going down with paper bags.

great to hear of a worthy thrift find!

good vacuum, handy, but that 'new' price is laughable.

i dont have the 'bug' like i used to have for vacs and its kinda good....b/c from what I've noticed in my estate sale and thrift store and even FB marketplace hunting....everything is much more expensive or just nothing that lights my fire. I'm glad I got everything in the past 3 years!

your(OP) question began a thought trail for me....that went all over the place! haha. I don't have a single 'favorite' vacuum cleaner to use....as I have many like you all too. I usually rotate one every 2 weeks and I have different ones for upstairs vs main floor of the house, thus, I get to...

stunning. thanks for sharing this!!!

man, where do you find these? You've added another fine example to your collection! I may have to check it out when I come down to Pueblo again! ;-)

human. did you ever consider this way so that you can keep the stylish and cool Sani-emptor? I posted many pics of it 3 years ago. HEPA bag....pain to change it...but if you're a collector....one doesn't use it all the time so its usefulness will last a good while.

Les, stock Avalir motor/tranny. thx!
