This can sometimes make it difficult to identify the exact type of vacuum cleaner. Especially since the introduction of the Generation series in 1990, many models are universal, which means that most parts are compatible with multiple models. Nevertheless, there are a few exceptions. That is why it is essential to know exactly which model you have. Only then can you avoid ordering parts that do not fit or limit functionality.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1075\" data-end=\"1122\">How to identify your model: Which Kirby do I have?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1124\" data-end=\"1672\">First, it is helpful to check the serial number of your Kirby. This number is usually located on the bottom and side of the machine. In addition, external features such as the design of the housing, the color, and the placement of buttons can help with identification. Furthermore, specific accessories and standard brushes often provide clues about the model. With this information, you can immediately see which Kirby vacuum cleaner you own, allowing you to order the right item for your type of Kirby.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1674\" data-end=\"1718\">Tips for ordering parts<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1720\" data-end=\"2103\">Once you know which model you have, you can search specifically for the right parts. Pay particular attention to universal parts that are suitable for multiple generations, but always check for exceptions. Using original or compatible parts ensures that your Kirby vacuum cleaner continues to perform optimally and significantly extends its service life.<\/p>\n<div class=\"trustpilot-widget\" data-locale=\"nl-NL\" data-template-id=\"5613c9cde69ddc09340c6beb\" data-businessunit-id=\"4e1b158d00006400051028e4\" data-style-height=\"100%\" data-style-width=\"100%\" data-theme=\"light\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nl.trustpilot.com\/review\/www.veltec.eu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-55206 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.veltec.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/NL.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"774\" height=\"75\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.veltec.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/NL.jpg 774w, https:\/\/www.veltec.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/NL-300x29.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.veltec.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/NL-768x74.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.veltec.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/NL-705x68.jpg 705w, https:\/\/www.veltec.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/NL-450x44.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.veltec.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/NL-600x58.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.veltec.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/NL-190x18.jpg 190w, https:\/\/www.veltec.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/NL-750x73.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><!-- End TrustBox widget --><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-88472","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Which Kirby Do I Have? - Veltec Kirby specialist<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Find out which model of Kirby vacuum cleaner you have here.
