Greatvacs I purchased a refurbished G4 from Greatvacs a few years ago and was thoroughly pleased with the Vacuum and the attachments. I knew going in the attachments were aftermarket (some pics show factory tools and others aftermarket). The hose was a bit longer on the aftermarket which was...

Soft Bag I hope there is ALWAYS some sort of soft-bag vac available - I'm an old soul.

I've never used anything but.. a Kirby. It's really a matter of personal preference. I've tried other systems from Eureka to Royal (and I've even tried my mom's beloved Dyson). Every vacuum has its pros and cons, but for my personal tastes and needs - a Kirby has always been the top...

I scored.. a BARELY used Sentria II with brand new/un-used attachments, shampooer, manuals and original boxes for $415.00. I love it! The machine doesn't have one blemish on it! Not one speck of dirt to be found when I un-boxed it - not one scratch in the aluminum housing or floor...

I'm partial to.. My Classic Omega... Such a beast of a machine and I love emptying the bag after each use and seeing the muck it pulls up! I love the way it makes my carpet look.

I have searched Google and Yahoo many, many times for different Kirby pics just out of boredom and you'd be surprised at how many pictures from Vacuumland show up in the search results - I've even found some of my pics that I posted up to 10 years ago (and forgotten about) out there - it's...

GREAT story about Kirby and a birthday boy... http://kfor.com/2015/01/19/vacuum-salesman-invited-to-birthday-for-a-child-with-autism-moves-room-to-tears/

Aside from... The performance of the machine itself, the Kirby,-to me, has always been fascinating and appealing to me from a visual stand point. I love how it's design today (Avalir) still hardens back to the machine/Industrial Age when modern technology was really starting to take off...

Thank you James! I keep my carpet vacuumed regularly and shoes off of it! I think it adds warmth to a small home such as mine. I went with a semi-loose knap for easier vacuuming- I love the way my Kirby leaves it looking. I do have ceramic tile in the kitchen, dining , laundry and bathrooms...

not every day.. Well I don't use it EVERY day :) I give the house a good vacuuming once a week with it. My place is small so it doesn't take very long. I find that it glides across my carpet pretty smoothly actually and I like that is brushroll is more gentle on carpeting. I steam my...

Kirby Heritage Was my grandmothers Kirby that she and gramps purchased brand new back in 1981 after she used my parents that they bought new a few weeks prior. Right after I got my first apartment, she showed up at my door with it, stating that she knew I needed a good "vak-kum" for my new...

I think... It's beautiful! Must have!

Both of My Kirby DS models.. I'm still amazed at how much grit/grime and pet hair I get (with just a small Chihuahua) with each bag dump and they seem to fluff my carpet and raise the nap better than even my Heritage and Classic Omega. When I empty the bag on my DS50 or 80, I almost always get...

I'm still amazed.. at how functional they still are as an everyday vacuum and how well they clean. I had been using a Sentria as my everyday cleaner( i vacuum my tiny house once a week) and decided to pull out my DSD50 to give it a whirl around the house. I was SHOCKED at the amount of crud I...

Classic Omega Out of all of my Kirbys, I find that I always go back to my Omega, I love the way it handles, how smoothly it glides across the carpet while still forming the tightest of seals,how well it grooms and pulls the nap up, the color combo, its beastly look. I always love emptying the...
