So I went to the thrift store today and found 2 vacuum cleaners today.

1981 Kirby Heritage 1-HD Turbo.

2008 Oreck XL12 4120 I believe.

I'm trying to make a video of my Oreck first, but can't put the bag on it.

The Kirby is in good condition but makes a vibrating type feel sometimes to it as if it's rubbing against the plate.

That Oreck looks very similar to the first Oreck I've ever had. Does yours have a really soft white brushroll on it too?
The Kirby's nice too

Turns out my Oreck vacuum had the wrong bag In it, so I grabbed a spare bag from my 2007 Oreck XL21, and it matches bags. Link I will send of my Oreck rebuilt in action.
