Okay, figured it out. Guess Kirby will work out, since there are no Tri star backgrounds. That's messed up! (grin) |

I would like to also welcome you _____, to the forum/club.
I was doing some vacuum searches & tripped over the forum/club so-to-speak. There's a lot of nice people in the club & a lot of helpful info. I'm somewhat limited on assistance w/ other brands (don't want to repair or rebuild others); however, with KIRBYs, if there's any way I may be of help that you're not familiar with, feel free to contact me [thru my email in my profile might be the quickest]. I carry Genuine Kirby parts w/deeply discounted prices for members. And again, welcome. Bill In case my email doesn't show in my profile, here it is [change the: at & dot]: a007kirbyman(at)aol(dot)com |

When you get one Kirby, they have a tendency to sneak up on ya awfully quick, and then next thing you know you'll have TONS of them!
There is a few differences here & there between the older models, but not much. The 50's & 60's models, such as my Kirby 519, are lighter to push than say a Heritage or Classic III. I would start with a 500 series model if I was you....just a thought. |

To get a cool backround: Click on "update profle, in the upper right-hand corner. Then scroll down until you find something that says, "wallpaper backround". Does this help? |

I wish I had joined this group two months ago. I had a Tri Star DXL, I needed room so I gave it to the local thrift store... another vac I wish I had kept. To Musicinabottle, there are some good Kirby fixer-uppers on eBay. The prices are not too bad, but offer a little less than they are asking and maybe you can get a price that both you and the seller find acceptable. I had a very early Compact some years ago, pretty beat up and it's bag stank(yuck!!). It, along with most of my collection had to be given up when I moved into much smaller digs. But, I kept the core of the collection and I am now building it up again... and running out of space. email me if you have Kirby questions, I was fairly good at Kirby repair.
