I have a Kirby Heritage with the oval bag type. I don't own any bags like that and don't feel like purchasing them, so if I buy the bag "reversion" below, will it work with the bag tube on my Heritage?

Will,

The Heritage, Heritage II (Legend) and Legend II all could be had with the old-style shake-out bag as an option.

I wonder if you want to convert to that? You will need a Sani Em-Tor and a short-zippered bag.

Attached is a picture of a Legend II with the Sani Em-Tor.

Yeah... That's a no go. I'm trying to find a Legend II paper-bagged bag for my Classic III. I hate the shake-out bags.

I'm fine with purchasing bags, but I only purchase the Kirby paper bags (which is why I used the Kirby Bag Reversion kit on my Sentria II.) I'm pretty sure the kit will work on my Heritage, but I just wanted to double check. I wouldn't have to replace the bag tube? I could just use the stock one?

Will,

Here's my Classic III with the Legend II disposable bag system. And yes, I am using the brown Micron Magic paper bags on mine.

Will,

To use the brown Micron Magic bags, you'll need to change the top adapter to part no. 190484... this was used on the Heritage II and Legend II, and all Generation models up to and including the G5.

These are the parts for the fill tube assembly used from the Heritage II through the G5:
190384 - fill tube
190484 - top adapter
191182 - tube tie
