    Kirby Avalir Available When?

    Spoke to the local dealer. She was somewhat confused. Thought I wanted a Sentria. She was going to send me a card with the shops new address and date of release for AV. So far nothing. This was two weeks ago

    My filter queen majestic

    Lion, I feel your pain. I have a newer KM progressive canister that suddenly became possessed. I would try to start itself, wouldn't shut off, ran at half speed and other odd things. I decided to open it up and there was a circuit board! Geez, it was like, really, a circuit board in a friggin...

    Hoover Platinum collection carpet washer - brushes stopped

    DFP, my Bissell did the same thing. It was indeed a switch. I had to take mine down to the base to get to it.

    Stiff Hose

    Penie, It's the Kirby I bought. I think it finishes out the generation series, but have no idea. It's my first and I'm just learning Kirbyism or is it Kirbyistics, or Kirbythonics?

    Stiff Hose

    Penie, you really left yourself open on that one. My Kirby from Wally World came with a very long stiff plastic hose. It's annoying as hell to roll up but I can put the Ultimate in the middle of the room and reach ever corner top and bottom.

    Hosting a meet

    That's why I hide the keys to the handcuffs. It helps identify the quilty (or perhaps just playful...)

    Trading Kirbys like used cars?

    Super, but even if you trade in a horde of hoovers do you think that would be enough to get one Keen Kirby? I'm just sayin...

    Hosting a meet

    Are there guidelines for hosting? I've got little if anything of interest to others (yet) but all the meets seem to be fun. Is it usually pot luck or host provided (no problems there!), are there adult beverages?

    Is my Kirby unwell?

    Doug, very wise advice! If I get time next week I'm going to find the K store in Macon. Already spoke to them on the phone and it seems they have a good supply of new Sentrias. This can't end well!

    Trading Kirbys like used cars?

    When you buy a new K what comes with it? Do you get the shampooer and sprayer, etc. or are those all "packages"?

    Trading Kirbys like used cars?

    I'm not sure if it's tinnitus or the siren call of a new Kirby in my ears. I've had my Ult G about a month now and am wondering if my house would be even cleaner with a new K. On impulse called the nearest K dealer and asked when the "newest" model would be out, she danced around the issue and...
