I would take the Royal Everlast 8300 over any of the centrals.I have several freestanding centrals-the Kirby and the Royals are still better for me on the WW carpet than the centrals.The 8300 was a trade in at the vac shop I go to they didn't say what the Royal was traded in for-that Royal is a...

Nice find-the price was right! The fan in that "vacuum" is like on an upright.So surprized it was thrown out.

Not just clean it up-but get a bag for it,too.The vacuum is not usable as it is.

I have a Meile vacuum similar to this.Even came with the original multilayer paper bags.Was a trade in to a new Meile vacuum.Just needed a cleanup-and its fine.Does not come with a powernozzle.There is a connector for one.

For 11K-NO WAY--What is this seller smoking-and if someone buys this for that stupid price-what were they smoking or taking?????

Used to have one of those dual motor powernozzle Regina vacuums.Think I bought it from K-Mart.At the time was building DynaKit Hi-Fi amp kits.Used the Regina to clean up the wire clippings and such.The vacuum failed in a Strange,unusual way.A wire clipping got caught in the fan and it cut off...

Maybe I should try my using the Kirby Avalir 1 or 2 as a "powernozzle" to my MD Silentmaster central vacuum or others in my collection.Newest one is a Riccar machine.

They may be late-maybe someone in the management of Kirby's new owners got this started.Now are we going to see Rainbow,Aerus,and Filter Queen making similar commercials?If you cannot make home house call demos anymore thiswould be a good answer.The Kirby commercial indicates you could make the...

While watching videos on YouTube at work see Kirby Avalir ads!Never seen them advertise like this.Its the ONLY commercials I don't skip thru.

Guess its easier to sell the vacuum to someone local.The shipping is just getting too confusing and involved.

NOTE:Picking up ash,liquids CAN void your vacuums warranty.You CANNOT use the vacuum system as a trashcan.It is just that a VACUUM CLEANER-just like any other.Pick up those things with a vacuum DESIGNED to pick those up.If you pick up ash,liquids-get a shop type vacuum-and EMPTY it each time you...

Overly full MD central unit bags-the MD dealer here-Greenville Sew&Vac-went out on a service call-"Vacuum not picking up" Problem was the disposable bag had 65POUNDS of dirt in it.The dispsable bag weighted the cloth outer bag so much it was touching the motor air intake-blocking it.Lucky these...

Do you still have the vacuum?If so see if you can come up with a shipping estimates using the two package method.

If you can break it down as you say-maybe we can try again?Please give me an estimate on this.If this can lower the cost of shipping than I can be interested.

That floor must be REALLY clean with all of those vacuums used on it!!Have examples of some of the vacuums used.

Rainbow also made a "golden" vacuum-there are some of these award vacuums at the Rainbow dealer in my area-and they use them on occasion.

Not famaliar with ash seperators-you can get ash vacuums-these use all metal bodies and fireproof hoses and filters.You do have to empty them after each use.Since ash is a good thermal insulator live coals can remain hot for days!Best to play it safe.My Dad always cleaned his woodstove and...

Electric power distribution equipment is more efficient today than it used to be.The loss has been reduced.Higher voltage distribution has reduced loss becuase smaller guage cable can be used.

Metal wire brushes are for streetcleaners-NOT home vacuums!!!!

NEVER,NEVER use a central vacuum or others for that matter to pick up fireplace and woodstove ash.Good way to use the vacuum system as a HOUSE IGNITOR!!!!!Use the fireplace shovel and a METAL ashcan which is stored OUTSIDE the home!!!The ash can be dumpted in a garden-away from the house as...
