Kirby Sentria II & Changes...
Hello Rob (& all).
Bud (pr-21) pretty much 'nailed it' with the 'changes' that are on the Sentria II Kirby, as did Francis (kirbytradition7) with the 'cosmetic ones.'
However, that said, these changes (with the exception of the colors & bag pattern) were all done as "rolling changes" on the prior model Sentria. The 'changes' started back around 2007.
Some of these other changes, not mentioned above include the Zipp Brush, bag zipper, polymer base pan, 4-position handle pivot assembly, surface nozzle wheels, etc.
They ARE LIGHTER than previous "G model" Kirbys, (& even MORE DURABLE with the polymer material.) [[ I was initially concerned, when they (The Kirby Co./SF) started using 'other' materials than aluminum, like they've used for approximately 85 years! I've found that quality & durability is NOT an issue. ]]
The airflow (hence cleaning) is more powerful with the re-designed Emtor. It is a 'smoother' path for the air (& debris) to reach the bags.
If anyone desires add'l info on 'changes', I encourage you to refer to one of my prior posts in this thread (if the link at the bottom here does not work):

I hope this info. helps clarify a few things.
Cheers & hagd all,
Bill
