Thanks Fan. I tried to get full model number but no luck. It's great that Sears always (almost) lists manufacturer for their stuff.
Found it! Its a Cleva. Is that good or bad?
Anybody know who is making these? They sure look familiar.

I didn't know about that feature, pretty neat. Kirby ought to give it a look. There is no way to adjust mine to do throw rugs, it eats them every time.
