reo580: Emailed you man, thanks for the interest :) No power nozzle or wands, but original hose AND a Kirby hose - both with the proper fittings. I think the original hose is coming off the fitting but that's easily repairable with some epoxy or heavy duty glue (even a brown zip tie would be...

Pacific Steamex Looks like they (Pacific Steamex) made a nice NSS-like canister as well - in fact I like the nice metal finish on it a lot better. Link below (YouTube)

NSS The NSS M-1 Pig is supposedly one of the most powerful fan-first canisters of its kind. Link below. http://www.nss.com/prod_vac_m1.php

Anyone?

Sandy: That could have been just for a quick shoot - who knows, but I am very confident in what this guy can do. He is even offering me to have by 1205 sent it, him bring it back to like NEW condition (in ALL areas, inside and out) - and have me just pay when I get the chance. I don't know...

This guy. Is incredible - Jeff from Vacuumman.com - Fully restores Elecrolux's and has been doing so for about 30-33 years - and I think he told me over the phone his Dad has been doing so for about 77 - or maybe that's both of them totaled. Either way - very impressive and cool I'd say...

OMG!!! Jeff from Vacuumman.com IS AN INCREDIBLE INDIVIDUAL! He COMPLETELY restores Electrolux vacuums of ALL models to literally LIKE NEW condition -and does so for an incredibly price of $150 for a COMPLETE rebuild that includes - - Replace the cord winder - New bearings, brushes, and...

Also What's the best bag to use in a Kirby Heritage II for best cleaning performance, best suction, and best airflow? The paper bags or the synthetic ones? Also found what seems to be some pretty remarkable metal polish - check it out. It's called 'Sheen Genie'...

Yes, another "Kirby polishing" thread - but this time I'd like to get the best option that's out right NOW and maybe there will be the best answer here. Two questions - Can I somehow modify a nice stiff bristled Sentria or Pet Lovers brush roll to fit a Heritage II? And, here it comes...

Very cool actual in-home demonstration of a Kirby DTD salesman. It was agreed upon he could only come in the hose if he was video taped for a marketing project the home-owner himself is doing.

Hey all Thanks for all the input! Yeah I actually already have a 1205 that I'm thinking about sending off to Jeff at Vacuumman.com for a total restoration - he said it will be "like new" again - for about $150. I have the original motor that needs rebuilding (badly, has that slight burning...

Damnit - what I MEANT is - I would absolutely love to get the VACUUM restored by a professional - either pnluxconvlvr or Vaccumman (or are there any other restorers on here?) - NOT the hose. I could care less about those older hoses. I, for one, love the newer vinyl hoses. Nice and flexible...

Thanks all I have absolutely no interest in the original leaky hoses of the time when this machine was in its hay-day, but very much would love to have it completely restored by a professional to get it back to as mint condition as possible. I'm currently debating whether or not to purchase...

Also sorry The restorer's name is pnluxconvlvr - his thread is in my link below :) http://www.vacuumland.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?16270_62

Suction vs. Cleaning Performance? Really? I know with a good power nozzle suction isn't AS important, but it's always important to a strong degree, is it not? I'd love to have the most suction possible from an Electrolux, but then again, I do have my FilterQueen D31X that has a good 100-110...

And IF* the Miracle Mate and TriStart are equal, sorry

I'd wager my Electrolux UltraSilencer Deep Clean will out clean a TriStar, and outclean the Miracle Mate even more so. The suction is easily two and half times more than the Miracle Mate Platinum - and the Miracle Mate and TriStar are equal - then sorry, but drugs must be a hell of a thing...

This beauty... Has inspired me to get my 1205 fully restored to mint condition! INCREDIBLE looking machine you got there and I saw your 1205 thread, too. Very nice work. I've got a proposition for you - any chance you could restore my 1205 for me for appropriate pay? I sent you an e-mail
