Any Ideas where I can find the bumper's/furniture guard or acceptable replacement for the Model 700 and the Model 26.

Sorry the Kirby is a ham and wanted in the picture with the new acquisitions. It was one as well at the time. LOL

Sorry folks that the picture is side ways. I tried everything to get the picture to be in the correct position.

I too want to know this information the same. My 725 has a bumper exactly like that, just all crumbled down to the yarn.

sorry, no

I have the same issue with 2 of my coffee cans. Might I suggest a rubber item from a local shoemaker?

eBay...

A black Oreck Bumper contains no logos and is about the perfect width. It can be cut to fit and looks absolutely amazing on these machines. Hope this helps.

Great to know, Kyle

After 100 years, I think we'd all be in rough shape, too.

I'm like fine wine I get better with age. L.M.A.O

I use black rubber bungee cords to replace vintage dried out bumpers.

@vacman1961

Great Idea. Had not gotten around to thinking of bungee strap as an option.
