    Kirby Company sold to Right Lane Industries

    @ Scvacuumguy I really hope that aint the case with Kirby. If they start appearing in retail stores in retail like packaging with different models out at the same time then it wouldn't even feel like a kirby anymore. What kirby really needs to do is keep one model out at a time and not appear...

    Kirby Company sold to Right Lane Industries

    Also rainbow's have changed through the years. If we look over the past 30 years we had the D series and then when they updated that to the E series we got a lot of improvements, primarily a new shape and new connection parts and hepa filtration. Then while in the E series we got the direct...

    Kirby Company sold to Right Lane Industries

    @y Kirbyg6 I can't see kirby doing a scrubbing brush type attachment for the portable shampooer, especially since its in the blower mode type format. I do hope rexair does a scrubbing spinbrush for its portable shampooer. At lease with rexair thats a good possibility and a potential one too...

    Kirby Company sold to Right Lane Industries

    This is going to sound random but kirby is going to have to remove the scott Fetzer name off the side of the shampoo box and turbo accessory box and off the bottom of the big kirby box. Hopefully this new company will listen to consumers wants and needs for this brand.

    Kirby Company sold to Right Lane Industries

    Another thing thats bulky with kirby is its shampoo system setup. Granted the new MS3 allows you to mop and scrub your floors but its to big and bulky to fit into tight hard to reach areas like behind the bathroom toilets or under the bed, assuming your bedroom has flooring instead of carpets...

    Kirby Company sold to Right Lane Industries

    Another question I have is, what will happen to existing owners of kirbys, reguardless of what model it is, if the company shuts down and you have all these kirby owners that need their machines serviced and or needs parts and accessories? By the way I'm glad someone posted something kirby...

    Kirby Company sold to Right Lane Industries

    The main thing I want kirby to address, besides its weight, is it loud unbareble sound. Using a kirby growing up I felt like I had to warn the whole neighborhood because of how loud and unbareable it was. If kirby addresses those two concerns along with a few others, I will give kirby another...

    Kirby Company sold to Right Lane Industries

    They probably sold it because they knew they couldn't come up with noting new in terms of design and any stuff associated with the system, meaning accessories and parts. The sentria design has been out for 15 years, reguardless if its a sentria or avalir, time to change something up on it. But...

    Use your Rexair to clean your screened porch

    Heres another unique way to use your rainbow. Fill the sprayer with water and then add fresh air to it and just go around disenfecting things around your home. Another way to use it would be to fill either the minjet or rainjet solution tanks and disenfect the floors and or upholstry in those ways.

    Use your Rexair to clean your screened porch

    These rainbow cleaning systems are simply the best, better than all the rest. I find so many ways to use my SRX systm too. Like for example I use the minijet system but instead of the nozzle head i use the scrubb brush and squeegee to clean my windows and it works just find. The same set up...

    RainbowMate 12

    I have the rainbowmate RM-12, the one with the LED lights, for my SRX and I notice when using it on my sofa and recliner the tool slows down and stops spinning. Granted I'm not putting any heavy pressure on it and moving it lightly, so does it sound like something might be an issue with my tool...

    Rainbow's 85th Anniversary/ any new kirby info?

    Don't get me wrong, kirbys are great products there is room for improvment within the current platform design as well as within thr optional accessories. I can say from a personal opinion that kirbys are big and cumbersome and take up a lot of space with the shampoo system attach, even the...

    Rainbow's 85th Anniversary/ any new kirby info?

    Oh I know rexair isn’t going to come out with a new model this close to just releasing the SRX. What I was referring to was, do they have anything planned for the celebration as in releasing a new optional accessory or something. As for the Kirby G series, there’s definitely ways to improve on...

    Rainbow's 85th Anniversary/ any new kirby info?

    Does anyone have any idea on what rexair is planning for this anniversary and what they have planned to celebrate it, or if theres any type of world confrence, kind of like what they did 2 years ago with the launch of the SRX. Also does anyone have any idea on when kirby is going to release...

    New Kirby Avalir2 system owner. Impressed engineer.

    well avalir 2 didn't go above and beyond avalir 1 expectation due to the fact that they are the exact same machine.

    New Kirby Avalir2 system owner. Impressed engineer.

    Congrats on your avalir 2 (really sentria 4). This kirby platform has been around for over 30 years now so not much has changed since its orignal Generation 3 in 1990, more specifically it hasn't changed much since its 2006 sentria variant. They, meaning Kirby are good at suction and aggitation...

    New Kirby

    The regular Ultimate G,without the delicate switch, came out in 2002 and ran for a year and then the Ultimate G Diamond edition,with the delicate switch, came out in 2003 and ran till 2006. So technically the Ultimate G, rather it be the one without the switch or the diamond edition, with the...
