Melanie, I would like to welcome you to the forum/club.
When I was doing some vacuum searches, I happened upon the forum/club myself. There are a lot of nice people in the club & a lot of helpful info. To hopefully answer your question, The Kirby Sanitronic VII would NOT have used the metal coupler with the hose. It has/had the actual plastic coupler attached to the hose. Kirby makes a universal hose that covers models from the 516 up thru & including the 3CB (Tradition). This hose would be black. You may be able to find an original style if you are patient; & depending on, in what condition you may find it. The Kirby 562/Sanitronic was the last to use the 'stand-alone' metal coupler. I am somewhat limited on assistance w/ other brands; however, with KIRBYs, if there's any way I may be of help that you're not familiar with, feel free to contact me directly at the office by phone [or, thru my email in my profile]. These are many times, much quicker than thru the forum with me. If you decide you are OK with a black Genuine Kirby hose, I'm here to assist & will probably be able to save you some money on it. And again Melanie, welcome. Cheers & hagd/n all, Bill In case my email doesn't show in my profile, here it is [change the: at & dot]: a007kirbyman (at) aol (dot) com |
