With minor but constant airflow improvements due to brushroll design, emptor redesigns, bag technology, fill tube diameter and construction changes, and finally a slightly higher spinning motor . But, everyone is basically correct with their statements....its almost same vacuum since 1990.
I was talking with a Kirby technician and salesman for 35+ years....he told me from what he knew of the ownership/engineering aspect of the company....they HAVE tested moving the attachments onto the handle area and several other changes.....and that they won't manufacture a 'new' Kirby unless its better performing than the existing one. IF all that's true, it certainly adds ammo to the understanding of WHY its still basically the same vacuum.
ideas to ponder....
