Zach,

There is a difference from this video, and the "test" your friend Eric did. 

This video directly followed on the same day, whereas, Eric's test was a week of this then that test.  There are may variables that can come into play from the amount of traffic to the relative humidity.


I know you were trying to put me in my place, but in this case the Kirby is a direct air machine with greater airflow.  And yes, I admit, read my screen name I am biased and admit it.  But I have been in the homes when Ladies have cried, not with a dirt pad that is roughly what six square inches which takes approximately a teaspoon of dirt to look full.  This was done with a full size Baird meter and it was full. 


Also, I stated that I was in agreement with Brandon that no machine (Including Kirby) was 100% effective. 


Do the sand test yourself. Go out to the sandbox, or if not available take a pound of plain table salt.  Pour it into the carpet.  Now you have a measurable amount of what went in.  Now run each vacuum and see how much each pulls out.  Again this is able to be weighed and measured instead of a subjective--look at this.  I again will state the Kirby will be able to hold it's own.
