I got this Royal today at the Goodwill for $10. It came with 2 brand new belts and I just happen to find a Royal type B bag. Somebody used it without a bag and the outer bag was filled up with crap. I vacuumed it out asbestos I could. I know this model was made 1995-2004, but if somebody could pinpoint a date, I'd appreciate it. I will polish it up and probably take it to the Convention.

I think that's June 1995 in plant A. Very nice Royal, they are lightweight and clean very nicely.

This vacuum...

Is EXTREMELY powerful! It even kicked the pants off my 7 amp Sanitaire! It made my Kirbys look cute. Holy moly! It just about sucks my carpet off the subfloor. I like the height adjustment on this too. It's completely variable.

Great find, and for $10 you can't beat it.

EXCELLENT VACUUM!!!GREAT FIND!!May it serve you well.You can use the newer Filtrete style HEPA bags in it for better performance over the paper bags.The Filtrete bags are more expensive-but you can pack more dirt into them vs the paper bags.

Mine is a bit older, smaller motor and probably quieter, but I find they are very easy to use, love how it feels and sounds. Sturdy! I can't use my Kirby with my back any longer, this is no problem

Suckolux, Do you own a G Series Kirby with Tech Drive? I find that my Sentria is a breeze to use compared to my Heritage II Legend which does not have Tech Drive. My back loves the Sentria.
