Sentria

[kirbyotronic]

So, last April I was just browsing around on craigslist, I happened to stumble upon a 2007 Sentria, all the listing said was make an offer. I decided to make an offer for $40, and I just about crapped my pants when she said yes!

It was in pretty poor shape when I got it, the aluminum looked 30 years old, there were stickers stuck on the aluminum, the head was packed full with crap (I even found a live spider and a drying sheet in there!!!!), the brush roll had a TON of hair wrapped around it, and the bag was filled all the way to the tip top with the thickest, smelliest, densest dirt I had ever seen.

It's all cleaned up now, it looks brand new aside from a few small scratches. The brush roll looked new when I cleaned it off, the bristles probably never really touched the carpet!

Sorry for the size of the picture.

Kirby Ultimate G Diamond Edition

I purchased a Kirby Ultimate G Diamond Edition new in box off Ebay in 2007 for $620. I thought it was resonable for a brand new machine! I liked the looks of the Diamond Edition vs the Sentria so I decided to just get the machine off Ebay vs a new Sentria from a demonstration and associated hastle...

I'll upload a picture later...
