Hello everyone, I've had this for about a month now but I haven't actually posted about it yet. This is my Kirby 512 that I got for $36 at an antique store, the lady working there had no idea what to make of an 18 yo buying an older vacuum. I really like it, I've given it a slight polish, and I also cleaned out the bag and sew up a hole in it. Then I changed the brushroll out because the brushes were completely worn down.

. Very nice. I see your 512 has the original cord -- treat it very lovingly and carefully, and treasure it! You can hardly ever find those cords with the large, round machine-end plugs any longer. This post was last edited 03/29/2014 at 21:29 | ||

Welcome! Glad to find another member of your generation who can appreciate a good piece of ANALOG equipment! BTW, I am 6 years older than your Kirby and still function quite well, and the Kirby that led me to this site is a model C-R, sucking since 1934. | ||
