I have a Heritage with a small head (Sanitronic) nozzle. I haven't restored it yet. But me, the major advantage to the small head nozzle on a Heritage is the rug plate design. The rug plate on the original Heritage nozzle is very narrow (making the opening larger). Because the plate is so thin, it can dig into the carpet (especially on Berber style carpeting), making it harder to push. The small nozzle overcomes that problem, because it still uses a wider rug plate and thus glides more easily across the carpet.

Now that's a classy looking Kirby. Sort of a happy marriage of old-style and 80's era Kirby. Love the Sanitronic look on any Kirby |

I thought I would share my ebay sale that has been up for a few days now since this thread had a few posts about this same machine. Mine does not have the small head which my Grandparents did when I was growing up. I've decided to part with this cleaner to make room for some new ones.
