Sounds like some very interesting stories... Does anyone have any pics?

LOL Hi all, just wanted to see how'd I'd go at starting a thread... I've seen spread over a few posts in the past, pics and stories of newly acquired cleaners that supposedly 'no longer work'... When really they were just soooo full of gunk it's any wonder they didn't catch on fire!! Would...

Lurking in mattresses... That's the part that scares me!!! LOL We just purchased a new mattress for the guest bedroom and I really want to see what the Kirby could pull out of it... I do our own mattress regularly (it has a double-pillow top) so I'm really quite particular about how clean it...

I've never heard of a 'Baird Meter' for a kirby... Interesting... I see that I can get some 'pieces' for them on ebay - but not the whole 'assembly' as such... Any idea where I could get the whole set-up Matthew? Cheers Steve.

Hey folks! Been checking the Kirby 'Dirt Meters' out on ebay - and I can pick one up fairly cheaply - or so it seems... I'm looking for one purely just to have a 'play' with one and see exactly what I can get out of my caprets and mattresses... I know that some of you have used these in the...

Mate... I normally would keep my big Aussie mouth shut when it comes to threads like this - but I think 'awesome dave' pretty much sums it up... (well done Dave!) I can't help but feel as though the excitement of the new Kirby is now somewhat marred with this 'thoughtlessness'. Terrible shame...

WOW!!! Talk about the most wicked thread I think I've ever read on this site... Firstly - I must make this short - it's midnight in Circleville - I'm cold and tired - and really need to get some sleep - so I'll make it short... A huge thankyou to Norm - what a true gentleman and such a...

Streakers... LOL Perhaps those sorts of stories are best left for late night drunken conversations... LOL Oh and neither of us drink anymore! LOL Anyhow - Today we took a trip out to Yosemite.... WOW - The most beautiful place on the planet... Truly a marvel... I got to see snow for the first...

Guess What... We're here!!! Arrived in California this morning! And wow - what a stunning city!! have been to see the Golden Gate Bridge already and are now planning our very quick move in the morning to our proper hotel!! We'll be in Bush Street and on Sunday we're doing a full San Fran...

Hey Thanks folks... Norm I was a little disappointed with the response I'd received from Kirby already regarding the Tour I was hoping to take... However - I'd be most happy to follow any suggestions you have to locate one. Bill - many thanks for the info - however I really wouldn't want to...

Hiya knowledgable folks! Heading to the US in November (Columbus Ohio) and was wondering if anyone knew where I could buy a turbo brush for my Kirby Sentria... I currently have the Zip Brush that came with the machine - however I'm looking for one of the older (I call them a drum style brush)...

Found this beast... Looks to be in great condition! Who's going to place a bid??? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Electrolux-Barrel-Vacuum-Cleaner_W0QQitemZ280403293487QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Housekeeping?hash=item414956b52f&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 Cheers Steve...

Oh My! Now I feel completely stupid!!! Of course - that would be the logical thing to do!! I'm such a goose! I'll be sure to do that upon my arrival! Thanks fellas!

Thanks Terry... Regarding payment though - is there a way I can electronically transfer the funds across to the US (ensuring of course I deposit enough to cover the fees - considering the exchange rate etc.)? I couldn't imagine a US Bank accepting an Australian Cheque from me? Any suggestions...

2014... Thanks Terry - but in all honesty - 2014 isn't really that far away... So - Terry perhaps you can help - I note that there is a newsletter which is distributed. How do I become a recipient of that newsletter and if there's a cost - how do I get that to the Club? Not sure how it works in...

Thanks Norm I've just replied to your email and looking forward to catching up with you in beautiful Columbus! :-)

Thanks! Thanks vintagehoover! Your email was excitedly opened with haste I must say! And what awesome photos they are!!! Wow - I'm now soooo jealous!!!!! LOL I just wish I could do a tour... Would it be immature of me to stamp my feet and throw a tantrum?? Again - thanks heaps!

Surprised.... At a number of things - firstly Kirby's response wasn't exactly as 'friendly' as I'd hoped and unfortunately, they advised that they do not do tours'!!! So - I'm pretty devastated!! I saw some pics on here ages ago of someone who'd done a tour and I was thrilled for them... So...

Hiya folks, Well - looks like my dream has come true - I'm taking my first trip from Australia to the US. Hubby's family are in Ohio - and this will be my maiden voyage across the seas and the first time to meet his family... So - I'm terribly excited and nervous all at the same time... Anyhow...
