Do not be concerned if you are not asked for the model number for items such as vacuum bags, as these are interchangeable between models.

  1. Locate the front of your Kirby vacuum's handle. If the handle is missing or the plastic has broken off, locate the front of the vacuum-bag holder.

  2. Find the Kirby logo on either the handle or bag holder. The logo is always on the front of the vacuum.

  3. Read the model name located either underneath or above the Kirby logo.
