I thought they would be the same, but I thought I would ask anyway. I don't know a whole lot about Kirbys but the one thing I do know, is that I like them A LOT, LOL. |

The Heritage I did continue to use the Classic series Sani-Emtor as well. It also two bag options, a re-designed disposable bag assembly that was first introduced on the Tradition or a shake-out bag. The Heritage I was (I think) the last model to offer a shake-out bag. When the Heritage II was introduced, it featured the new Mini-Emtor and yet another disposable bag docking design (which carried through the G series). The Heritage II also introduced the smaller, more refined rug nozzle.

Initially, the Heritage II was the original 'large' head nozzle, similar to prior models back to the Classic. Also, they started out without the BPI light in the nozzle. There were other differences (ie: brushrolls changed); however, as stated above, many of the other changes were only cosmetic.
