Over the years of collecting I have came across several Kirbys boxes. I would imagine owners keep the box to store all the attachments it comes with, in my experience the average owner doesn't fuller utilize everything the Kirby comes with. I have only come across one other vacuum that was in its original box. It was a Vax canister, also a machine with lots of attachments.
I have two boxes that I bought the entire machine with and the others where when someone got rid of the box and whatever random parts happened to be in and I was able to pair it up with a machine I had. The G3 was the latest, it had an almost unused set of attachments, the shampooer, and all the original documentation. I've never seen a Kirby surface nozzle that had a steel bottom plate. The G3 I had was in a poor shape I'm tying to clean it up a bit to match those nice attachemnets. Since I'm short on room I've been storing the machines in their respective box to save space. If I want to vacuum with a Kirby I use my latest and greatest model which happens to be a Sentria.
