Have had a Kirby Heritage II since the mid 80's. Still gets a lot use with two long hair chihuahuas here.
It's a heavy machine but has held up pretty good IMO. Replaced motor brushes once. The cord also needed replacement due to the brush chewing on it.
I take a long a small 5 gallon Craftsman shop vac to fill the tow tube quickly when boating.
