I have a Tradition... Hey Dave, I have a functional Tradition with the shake-out bag but no attachments. I'm not looking for any money for her just a home. If you wish to just pay me for shipping, that Kirby Tradition would be yours. I can e-mail pictures if you would like. E-mail me at...

I think... What I'm going to do is go back to my Kirby dealer and get an original brush roll as I'm unhappy with the stiff bristle on that I have on it now. I noticed there is much difference there. Also, I might look at a Sentria rug renovator too instead of using the shampoo brush which was...

Hey Vacuum Geniuses, I have a Kirby Sentria that is maybe 9 - 10 months old and I am unsure it is cleaning the carpet right and I'll tell you why. Today, I vacuumed my carpets as usual and thought to run the shampooer as a "Rug Renovator". So I connected the head but ran the Kirby without...

Did Kirby stop manufacturing the TurboBrush. I think this tool would interest me for doing my stairs and my car carpets. Think I'll call my Kirby rep to see if be has one. I guess eBay might be a good second chance. Can you use them on a G series machine. Matt

How does it compare? To the Kirby Turbo Brush? I've thought about getting one but not sure if they are worth the money? I got a Kirby for my brother and SIL for a wedding gift and it came with the ZIP brush. We got it out and they loved it, but I thought it was a little bulky. Matt :-)

Hey Kirbytronic, Check your email, I sent one to you. Hope you received it. Let me know. Matt :-)

Hey thanks. If the Kirby Heritage I attachments work with the Heritage II that sounds great. Matt Springfield IL

Dear All Quick question. I'm bidding on a Kirby Heritage II but without any attachments. I did however fond a set of them on eBay that fit the Heritage I. Will these fit the Heritage II. What is the difference other than color between the Legend II and the Heritage II. Is one more preferable...

Dear All, I have a split entry home that has a lower level which is 80% ceramic tile and 20% carpet. The lower level has my sewing room and a guest room. I need a pre-G Kirby series with a bag (it's a little less maintenance than the shake out bag) that will clean the ceramic tile, the usual...

I have a 1979 Kirby Tradition that I picked up at a thrift store for $10. Although it just came with the vac and no attachments, I am wanting to use it downstairs in my home. What I would like to know is: 1. Can it be converted to a vacuum using disposable bags? 2. If that's so, what...

I'm going to call Kirby customer service tomorrow. Has anyone had any dealings with Kirby customer service in the past? What are they like? Thoughts? Matt :-)

And now the real thing...the serial # Not on the front left, oh no, on the underside, with the model information (dramatic reverb)!

Ok here's the scoop.... I took pictures of the nozzle and drive (not sure what to call that) and sure enough the mystery has been solved. It is a Kirby Omega Classic 1-CB that I guess had been restored/redone in blue. Why did someone redo or try to remake a Kirby Omega Classic into a...

Here's another angle... from the backside.

Whose to say... Someone didn't take an Omega body, fit it with a Tradition nozzle, blue bag and emptor and blue handle and there you go. Can you remake a brown Kirby Omega into a Blue Tradition? It's hard to understand why someone would do that... I'm going to get the serial number out and see...

That's strange... What would cause this? I just put in a bid for a Tradition that I can pick up. I am noticing the differences as I don't really have a good point of reference. I may get it out this afternoon and put it together - I have not yet. This is very very strange indeed. Seems like...

What do my grandparents have to do? Hey what do you have to do? If my grandparents don't have the original paperwork, I know it was registered in their name. Do they need to call Kirby? Thoughts? I'm excited...Matt :-)

I don't think it's original It does not look like an original Kirby bag. From the top of the bag down, it has no Kirby markings or anything. It also does not match up to the picture and looks a lot like a tweed. I'm posting a pict that was sent from the seller. Any thoughts?

Thanks... Unless I find an original one, I may have to go with the lighter tan one. The issue is the zipper on the original one is toast. Wonder if I could sew in a new one. Hmmm....or just get a new outer bag. Although, if I wash this outer bag in my front loading washer, will it come apart...

I love the DS50... My personal classic Kirby is the DS50 because of the memories it holds for me. My grandma had one and now they gave it to me. Here's a pict next to my Sentria. I'm just beginning to restore her. The DS50's name is Gerry, named after my grandma (Geraldine) and the Sentria's...
