I rarely deviate from Kirbys, but I stumbled upon this over the weekend. The elderly woman across the street from my house recently moved to an assisted living facility (she just celebrated her 100th birthday!) Of course I had to walk over and check it out. I found this cute little thing in the basement and felt compelled to save it.
Now, my questions are:
-What model is it? -What attachments should it have with it? I only have the floor nozzle. -What type of bags does it use? I just has a cloth bag but I imagine there should be a paper one as well?

Thanks for the info. The hose is actually pretty supple and has great suction. I took it all apart last night and cleaned the dust out and laundered the bag. The previous owner appears to have just been using the cloth bag to catch the dirt, but it doesn't seem like it did a great job filtering the dust, given how much was in the bottom of the machine. |
