Mine also, the very reason I looked to find another! Glad to have one back. Some of it admittedly memories.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE my Heritage II Legend, it's quiet and powerful! It's been used about 10 times since new, combined with its 13' nozzle and I have a dream machine!

Not sure I would use the word quiet, but pleasant sounding works!

Too Cool! Memory moment here, or is that senior moment? finally got the tool caddy and its pieces clean, went to THE vacuum close, ie hall closet, the holes where the last one 14 years ago hung, right there! I knew it had been there ages ago.Hung the new one right back up, hose over the hanger above it.

I guess it'll sound like a QUIET electric leaf-blower, they're similar enough in design!

So guys, does this sucker come in more than one size rug nozzle? mine is almost 16" and I thought my last one was smaller!
David,
Yes, all Kirbys from the Heritage I through the Legend II gave you a choice of either the standard 16" wide nozzle or the compact 13" wide nozzle. Besides that, you could also choose between the new-style disposable bag system (first introduced on the Tradition) and the old-style shake-out (reusable) bag system.
Both the 13" nozzle and shake-out bag system options were rare for the Heritage period vacuums produced from 1983-90.

Nice, its been like 15 years since I last used my old one, but it seemed smaller. I may have to keep my eyes open for the smaller unit. Thanks.
David,
Is it true you also bought a 1979 Kirby Tradition from Adam Mercer? If your last name is Watters, then I congratulate you!
