As another commenter says could be the commumtator needs dressing.I may be interested in this vacuum if we could somehow hammer out something.Price,payment method and shipping.

And to make things worse the Aerus unit is bagless-who wants to dump and bin containg 8 gallons of dusty dirt and clean that ineffective foam filter.The MD dealer here has replaced several Aerus units-each with a blown motor from lack of cleaning the filter by its user or the general...

I will continue to use my older metal AirWays-even have one of the purple ones.Also have a "Vita-Vac" that I got from a trade in pile.Still works just fine.No need to buy that plastic model.

Why didn't AirWay stick with their METAL body canister cleaners??Those were something special.The present plastic AirWay is NOTHING special.Won't buy.

As a kid-used a Kirby 510or 511 from my Dad.Canister vacuum was a Kenmore "wheelbarrow"that Stepmom had.Liked cleaning with them.

The airflow thru most vacuums-central or portable-can kill insects picked up by too high amount of airflow the insect breathing spiracles can stand.They get killed by the airflow drying them out from the inside.Insects don't have lungs as we do.Goes right to their tissues and cells.

After I have used my Brio for awhile-will tell you how it goes.

Found this machine at the Sew&vac place-Greenville Vacuum&sewing.Its abasic canister vacuum-10A motor.Uses a 2 gal Filtrete type bag and has a HEPA motor filter.The bag wraps around the motor like the Hoover Celebrity.The main body is stainless steel.The lid contains one filter.The vacuum comes...

Have one similar to this in my central vacuum collection.You can use this machine with disposable bags or without.

This Kirby is just like the "Hygenetec" model sold for like 10 grand for matteress cleaning.

New Porta Powers should go to cordless.Same with the similar Oreck vacuum.

I bought an Everlast 8300 from the trade pile -vacuum is in great condition except for the lower part of the bag zipper.Corroded.Just wondering if someone here has an extra 8300 Everlast black bag they could sell to me.Borrowing an orange commercial outer bag from another vacuum.

I really use BOTH the central vacs I have(freestanding) and my Kirbys and Royals.I use the central vac for the canister jobs rather than the Kirby.Just use the Kirby on WW carpet.Same with the Royals.

Beleive the model# and data is just inside of the door with the door open.You have a GOOD machine-these KA's are known on the Appliance site as the "Hurricanes in a box"and clean better then most machines-esp todays models-and this older one does it FASTER but with more water and power use.I...

Direct air and central-disagree here-My Kirbys and metal Royal uprights pick up better than my centrals for carpet vacuuming.Other jobs-the central vacuum.

Not just dumping their bins--but not cleaning or replacing filters.Now if the owner READ the owners book about the vacuum they would learn about the filters that need attention besides dumping the bin.Honestly these folks would be better off with a BAGGED vacuum-when bag gets full or...

"sprinkle carpet poweders-for some vacuums-the warrantee is invalidated if you pick this stuff up.If it gets into the motor-will fry the bearings.And it sneaks in somehow-no matter what filters or bag is used.Something about those sprinkle stuffs-they can corrode metal and even some plastic...

When folks buy these vacuums-they throw away the owners manual still in the box!You know the attitude-"Its a vacuum cleaner-I know how to use and care for it already."

When these older machines sell for the "designer","collector" prices I am NOT interested.This same nonesense has spoiled the lamp,radio,and fan collecting hobbiesRemember when these items USED to be able to be bought at REASONABLE prices?.And they used to be common at yard sales.

I suggested online sales to the Kirby distributer in Atlanta.Filter Queen is having online sales.Are other DTD premium vacuum companies going to follow?
