[QUOTE="durango159, post: 256634, member: 1041"] Bring on the fun. The point of a handheld vac is because the smaller head maneuvers and fits well into smaller areas. Thereby a full size Kirby in "hand vac" mode is virtually disqualified!!! That's like my FilterQueen powerhead attached directly to hose. Still full power of machine, much more maneuverable than a Kirby but still not up to the size ratio of where another hand vac might fit!! Now if anyone has the red Kirby Hand vac with headlight, then that would be cool. I like the electric hand vacs with rotating brushes. I've used a Hoover Sidewinder, and a few Dirt Devils. Never tried the Panasonic Jet-Flo, Kirby handheld, Shark, or Eureka Corvette, or other Eureka handhelds. Would like to try the navy blue Black & Decker handheld some day. I went from having no hand vacs to 2 over the past couple of weeks. Bought one used one from from a vac shop collector friend in New York. It's a green Dirt Devil Plus. Great color. The second is a navy blue Royal Pro Series. I got the Pro Series at my local Goodwill. Love the navy blue color, I saw it and just about had to have it. Today is the cleanup day for both of them. The Royal is all cleaned up and reassembled with new belt and bag. The green one broke its baseplate screw supports when removing the screws, so they are currently curing with some glue. I hope it holds, the green color housing is really neat looking. [/QUOTE]
