Dual Sanitronic 80

[kirbyotronic]

I've had this for a little over a week and I've been waiting to open it today. It was on eBay for $40 reserve not met, turned out that I was the only bidder. After emailing the seller she agreed to sell it to me, so I payed her through paypal and she shipped it out right away. We discussed some shipping instructions so it came very well packed and all was damage free. The fan started to rub against the fan case when I started using it earlier, that's odd as I used it before that and it was fine. I'll have to sort that out soon. Anyway it purrrrrrrs like a kitten and I took the shampooer on it's maiden voyage today. I love this one too!

Enjoy the pics.

It's fluffer and a buffer! Complete with a vintage belt! The Rug Renovator had one too but it snapped.

Wow..that is awesome

Very, very nice machine. You are very lucky to have it in such a great condition. This is one of my favorite Kirbys as well. My mother had bought one like this new when I was little. I have a home movie of me pushing it in our dinning room. Did you get the book with it,I did not see it. If not and you would like one let me know I might have an extra.

One more thing to add...

I see it also has the instruction sticker on the belt lifter still intact. My Dual 80 that I have with me has it on the belt lifter as well, one of three 80's that I have. To me it is a great find when you find a Kirby 561 and up that will still have these stickers on the belt lifter. That is an increible find, you are so lucky. I see it also has the original bag and in such great shape.

You carefully looked and guessed right, I don't have the manual for this machine. I'd love to have one and thank you for the offer.

I can't decide whether I want to carefully peel the sticker off and preserve it or just leave it on. I think I'll probably just leave it on. Everything on it is original and in great condition! I don't think it was used more than 20 times.
