Today was a good shopping day. After all this time I finally found a dirt meter for my Kirby's. I would also like to get the adaptor for the G Series Kirby's as well.

I was amazed at what the Kirby 517 sucked out of the carpet after a through vacuuming on Saturday with the Sentria.

I got everything pictured for $ 35.00 at the local Salvation Army store.

Steve,

Awesome... I even see a Kirby Classic III proof book!

Speaking of which, if that has all of its original pages intact, could you please try to share those here with us?

Thank you,



Ben

What is it for?? It was a tool for salesmen for demonstrating , with the dirt meter so one could easily see what was being picked up in the customers' carpet unlike what using the bad would show
