Kirby made a few changes to their caddy;
Cardboard box - Omega, Classic... Door hanging organiser (Roo pouches) - Hard case (blue) - Tradition Caddy with set layout (dark grey) - Heritage Caddy (light grey) - Heritage II / Legend Caddy (grey) 2 more tools topside - G series Caddy (greige) - Sentria II Soft zip case (black) - Avalir Caddy (black) - Avalir II I presume Kirby moved away from specifying what went where, to make organization more user-friendly? Less regimented. I settled for this configuration (see photos). It's narrower and tidier than that shown in their presentation, but I guess their demo is really trying to showcase and emphasize the wide range. They never really considered space for floor polisher, hard-floor head, shampooer, instructions, spare bags... Even the long stair hose won't fit well. |

The tools I have for my orange bag Heritage HD1 are in gray and orange cardboard boxes, identical to those of the Classic series. The tools are just charcoal gray instead of brown or red. The Tradition came with the same Classic era tools, in navy blue, and I've seen pictures of a blue plastic closable tool case for the Tradition's tools that was entirely different from the later one-piece, wall-mountable open caddy, which I believe came with the Legend II, and then all subsequent G-series and Sentria machines, but I'm not sure about the Heritage II and Heritage II Legend machines, whether they had accessories in a cardboard box or a plastic caddy, or whether that was a running change. The tools for the Legend II were also of the later G-series design, but that may also have been a running change from the earlier Classic design.
