I run a Sanitaire blue 5 amp upright with a Vibra groomer ll brushroll but find that the white bristles aren't very stiff. Are the blue inserts stiffer? Thanks! Greg

I use a Eureka Boss upright daily but go through belts fast (at least I think so). My vac store sells me Everclean belts at a good price, but are they the best? Or should I be using genuine Eureka belts? Thanks! Greg

In Wilmington NC for pick-up! Has hose (NO tools) and carpet shampooer system with extra bags, belts and shampoo. It's just getting too heavy for daily use! Greg Bushman luxflairguy on here. Thanks!!

Is there much difference in say a Lux Epic 3500 upright then and the new one now? I know there's an after filter and probably a better brush roll but is it worth the difference? I've a chance to buy a 3500 for $30.00 . Greg

Totally impressed after using my Avalir shampooer for the first time today! I have heavy gray carpet throughout my apartment and have used the Rug Doctor previously. Big difference! Rugs are look clean! No more traffic patterns! Takes a bit of time to get the "hang of it." Lavender scent not...

Our Webmaster's posting of Kenmore pages has me asking: Did Sear's ever have a really good upright vacuum? The pages Robert posted show a few (or the same ) uprights but was there ever a real "winner" in the Kenmore upright line? I know they had a version of the Singer twin fans and then in...

Is the Kirby Avalir Rug Renovator any better than it's predecessors? If so, tell me why... Greg

I want to start using my Handi Butler. Should I Be using the older style belt or the 301289 belt made for the polisher? Thanks! Greg

I've noticed that genuine Kirby shake-out bags are getting harder to find. What's the opinion on the after market bags? As good? Greg

A Big Shout Out to Kent Oyler of KirbyNeeds LLC or KirbyFans on ebay! I purchased a re-furbished Sanitronic VII from him that purrs like a kitten and cleans like nothing I've used in a while! I more than pleased! So look him up on Ebay and get to know him. I'll buy from him again! Greg

I love my Sanitronc VII, but can't get a vac store here to tighten it decently. Does the shell from a Dual 50 fit a VII? Greg

I'm using my small nozzle Heritage more and more and I'm using the universal style Hepa bags in it. But I'm having a problem with the fit of the bag onto the fill tube. It seems as if every other bag blows off the tube. Does the F style bag holder work better? Also I would like to wire my...

I've pulled my Heritage II out of storage but have no bags for it. Will the newer allergy friendly bags work? How about the newest style bags? Looking on the Kirby website makes me feel that the bag opening's are pretty much the same. Am I right? Thanks! Greg

My Princess I has the old cotton batting filter. How often should you change the filter and while I know the new foam one makes the machine a bit louder, will it also improve the suction? Greg

Help me refresh my memory! What's the right belt to use on them? In the Tip Top Parts catalog, the OEM knurled belt is O.K. What belt for the polisher? The Sanitronic is a single speed 4 amp machine. The D50 is rated at 5 amps for high. 4 amps for carpet speed? Thanks! Greg

Henry/Jeff see's daylight. My Numatic Henry (labeled such for Jeff Campbell's Clean Team) is out in the light to be packed for his trip to N.C. He's made for the american Market and I've taken a picture of the ratings plate. This machine also has the illusive Power nozzle plug, which I've...
