    I like the kirby design and i think changes like the new shampooer are about as radical Kirby would go and I'm honestly glad that's the case, i think the way it is now isn't that big of a deal having to change the belt and all and having a permanent head would kind of eliminate canister mode...

    Hard to find Hoover Y Bags

    Y bags are too big in my opinion plus y bags are designed for bypass machines where a and z bags are for direct air machines so they're not good for optimal performance

    Do you think Bissell is discontinuing the Big Green Complete?

    Mabye or they could just have an overstock they're trying to reduce, i know Hoover does this from time to time via thier ebay shop But i will say this if they're discounting this model due to poor sales it's really thier own fault (honestly the same goes for many discontinued models today)...
