    Shark Powered Lift Away True Pet

    From a previous post you all know I bought a new Vacuum. The Shark Powered Lift Away True Pet. I have had it for a couple of weeks now and I have to admit that I like it but have a few issues with it. What I do like about it is that the suction is amazing. I used it at the old house right...

    $62.33 later and the wheels fall off.

    No and it's not worth my time. He is lucky that Jacob wasn't here when he made the comment about what we were doing. Jacob would have shown him to the door very quickly. I can always go to Kalamazoo or another area that has a distributor. It's done and over with.

    He wasn't friendly. I know he was mad because I wouldn't pay for the repair. He was a bit condensending, but from past experiences a lot of Kirby salesman are that way especially if they don't like your vacuum. I have his product, and I also have one of his biggest competitiors and he seems to...

    $62.33 later and the wheels fall off.

    And it's fixed. The Kirby man came down today and had it fixed in about three minutes. He tried to charge me and I wasn't having any of that. I told him that both Jacob and I tried to fix it and we couldn't. He said that it didn't surprise him that he would have had to fix it one way or...

    I didn't have a chance to go to the Kirby company today. I woke up at 11:15 and the office in Stevensville is only open from 09:00 AM to 12:00 PM and I wasn't going to have time. I did call and spoke to Mike who is in the office and who I have been dealing with. He said that he would be...

    I have a G 2000 Limited Edition. A friend of mine gave it to me. She didn't like my Rainbow even though she never used it. LOL I looked around and didn't find any screws. The problem we are having is that we can't get the wheel on the axel? and I can't get the height adjustment together to...

    $62.33 later and the wheels fall off.

    It fell apart on the front left side where the height adjustment is. Jacob tried to put the wheel assembly back together and he was unsuccessful. I tried the same thing and I couldn't get it either.

    $62.33 later and the wheels fall off.

    My little rant. I decided to temporarly retire my Rainbow until we get new carpet. So I'm using my Kirby. I sent the Kirby to the Kirby Company of Southwest Michigan so that I could have it serviced and cleaned really good. I got it back today paid $62.33 and started to use it to see how it...
