That was back then...I'm nearly 18 now and have essentially moved on from the world of vacuum cleaners and...

    Selling some vacuums

    Hey everyone, I have a few vacuums to sell. Unfortunately, all of these vacs are too large to ship, so they're pickup only.   1) Eureka ESP Self-Propelled. Motor sounds like it could use new bearings. 2) Hoover Junior 115. This could also benefit from motor work. Cord and bag are not...

    Hoover Convertible U4411

    This is a Hoover Convertible U4411 from the early-mid 1980's. The vinyl bag only has one tear, the motor sounds fine, and the light works. I have converted it to take Type A/Y/Z bags, and I will include some Z bags with it.

    Vacuums at school

    What kind of vacuums do the janitors at your schools use?   At my school, they use Windsor Sensor S12's, ProTeam backpack vacuums, and a vacuum built onto a cleaning cart called a C3 XP Cleaning Companion.

    Kirby Heritage with shakeout bag!

    Alright, I bought this new bag from eBay and it just came today.   WOW, I am impressed! I would say it gained about 20-30% more suction power with the shakeout bag. I also never realized how faded the old disposable bag was. What I find strange is the Sani-Pocket doesn't have the...

    Recommended vacuums for these situations?

    Hello everyone, I was just wondering what vacuums would be good in the houses of my relatives, so I can give them suggestions for replacing their old and worn out current vacuums.   So, we'll start with my paternal Grandparents: Wall to wall carpeting in EVERY room of their ranch house...

    Should I get a new bag for my Kirby Heritage?

    Hi everyone, I just wanted to know if my good old Kirby Heritage deserves a new cloth bag. The one on mine is faded and stained in several places, not to mention the paint peeling off the Sani-Emp-Tor.   I have attached a picture of one of the stained parts of it, more to come...

    Kirby G Series Attachment Caddy?

    Hello everybody, sorry if this has been asked before. What was the proper arrangement of the Kirby attachments in the G series caddy? Was there even one, or was it up to the customer to put what they wanted where?   I always thought: 1 and 5 were wands, 2 was duster brush attached to...

    Well, I finally got a Tradition, this one has the shakeout bag, Lexan fan, headlight lock but Omega switch, and the attachments. Now all I need is one with the more common Style 1 setup!   Thanks Michael (kirbyeureka95)!

    Anyone have a bottle of old Instant Suds? I have two, one about 1/4 full and the other is BRAND NEW!   The unopened bottle is from 1982, and the other is from 1984 (it's missing the label though)

    Kirby Ultimate G Diamond Edition...

    ...is now off my wish list and on my collection list, since I got this little gem today (no pun intended.) The chrome was tarnished, the bag was packed to the brim, the lightbulb was burnt out, and the belt was inside out and had some gouge marks in it. I polished it a bit, popped in a new bag...

    What vacuum went with this attachment?

    OK, I have a mystery attachment that was found in the Reno Group of my Heritage II. It's definitely not a Kirby upholstery nozzle, because it does not fit in the hose of my Heritage 84. There are two stamps inside it, one saying "24176" and the other saying "5A." There's also a place for a...

    Nasty vacs in for repair

    So, this morning the doorbell rang, and there stood one of our neighbors. He said he had two vacuums that needed fixing. He said one (I'm assuming the Hoover) kicked the pieces out, and the other one (prob the Bissell) made a weird noise. So I lugged them out of his car and brought them in...
