What vacuums are you hoping would come out in 2022?

I'm just ready for something new. I mean we've basically had the same machine for 16 years with a differnt color scheme and or different name and the more and more we have of it, the less interest people will have in it and the more likly they'll end up in pawn shops or online selling sites for pennies on the dollar. And the platform itslef is going to be 32 this year. I can't understand why now they decided to finally release a new platform, if this is true. I mean I can see them doing it in 2020 starting a new decade with a new platform, like what they did with the G3 back in 90. I can also see the pandemic also playing into a factor for why they haven't launched it. However we're still in a pademic and its not getting any better. I'm also intrested in what new attachments and or optional accessories that they have coming out for future models. I truly do hope with modern technology and online forums, that kirby, themselves, looks online and sees what people are saying about their current G-series machine and how they can improve on them. Because I know for quite of bit of times that I've mentioned what should be changed and or added. I do hope somehow or someone in that group post something soon.
 
does anyone in that facebook group actually work for kirby.



Another thing Id like to see this year but from Rexair is a redesign rainjet. Potentially motorized, with a spinning brush and a bigger solution container for both the minijet and rainjet.
 
With Warren Buffet ditching Kirby and the door to door sales method, I'll bet real money there is No New Kirby coming out. Where would the millions and millions of dollars to tool up for a new model come from? They can barely sell the ones they have now. Your doorbell rings and two masked strangers are standing on your porch in the middle of a terrible pandemic, wanting entrance to your home and access to your family. To sell you an overpriced dud of a vacuum cleaner. WAY overpriced dud. Who allows that today?

Most people who clean their homes today want a cordless stick vac they hang on the wall. "Old fashioned" machines and cleaning ideas are long dead. Young and old alike want light weight stick vacs. Just ask them. That's what they're buying.
 
I bet Kirby will keep making the G series for as long as they want to I remember when the avalir was about to launch and some of us got very excited because we thought it was going to completely new but it was just another boring G series I think there’s never going to be a completely new Kirby
 
I mean if they keep the G series that’s fine (not really). But change somethings up on it, that way it doesn’t keep looking like a recolored sentria. By that I mean change the shape of the belt lifter and change the headlight hood.
 
Just some things that I'd like to add

Reply #8, I also agree with you as well. Hopefully we'd see an upgrade with settling down odors coming out of bagged portable vacuums (That's usually not a problem with central vacuums). I love certain vacuums like the Hoover Concept Two or the Royal Everlast 8300 for example that uses scent doors that makes the vacuums smell fresh as you're vacuuming. I also like the scent tabs that you can always swap out for another when they wear out like the Oreck ones for example. And I did liked the smell of Febreze bags, but unfortunately I find that not only the smell doesn't last for very long but also the bags filter terribly as well.

Reply #23, actually NaceCare did used to distribute some upright vacuums here before. It looks like they don't anymore or at least not now. Not to mention that they even used to use Sebo powerheads before as well or at least not now either. This is what one of their upright vacuums looks like: https://www.amazon.com/NaceCare-Motor-Upright-Vacuum-Capacity/dp/B00CT9JSNA

And finally, I think I agree with Tom here. I don't think a new Kirby would come anytime soon. Plus, I'm totally alright with the current Kirby design. I honestly don't think that they need to change anytime soon. And with reviews like these, I think the Avalir 2 still meets up with today's standards that consumers would like to have from a vacuum cleaner. Though if there's one thing that I'd like to see Kirby do, I hope that they can bring back the Vacuette handheld vacuum.

Here's my thoughts. If rexair can redesign the E-series and come out with the SRX platform, then who's to say that Kirby can't redesign the G-series and come out with something new. The G-series, in my opinion, is beyond its experation date to the point where we can go to our local pawn shops and online sites and get them for pennies on the dollar, but yet kirby doesn't seem to realize it and they still continue to make G-series machines. Say a dealer goes to a home that already owns a kirby (more specifically a G-series) and the dealer tries and sell an avalir 2. Those people aren't going to really wanna buy it since its not much different than the machine they already have. My point is, if kirby is going to come up with a new model they better do it in the near future, especially with how modern technology plays into how we clean our homes these days. Don't get me wrong the G-series is a great kirby platform but it needs a lot of modification, which I've mentioned numerous times. Also the G-series isn't all that user friendly for people who are elderly. I just hope something happens soon because I'm tired of seeing the same recolored 2006 modeled getting minor changes here and there and then getting relaunched as a new model when reality its just a 2006 sentria changed up a bit. And if you really wanna get technical its just a recolored and renamed 1990s G3.
 
Any word on this supposably new kirby? Also I looked through the fb group to see where it was mentioned and I couldn't find out whom was posting about it.
 
Okay this sounds very exciting but iv got a very very bad feeling that this is all made up to get us very excited about another colour change but if this pilot model does come out il be over the moon
 
Idk why he’s referring it as a pilot model, especially since it’ll be considered next gen, if that. I kind of believe it because most of the time Kirby does release a new model in June, primarily with the sentria in June of 2006 and the sentria 2 in June 2012. However I don’t see the potential for onboard tools as that kind of defeats the purpose of the Kirby with its multi purpose power plant. As well as controls at the handle. Then how would it be converted to a portable cleaner, which I’m sure people don’t use it as that anymore due to its heavy weight. Also it’ll just make it a little more heavier than what it’s already. That’s the part I have doubt on.

My question for the community is, is he a reliable source and if he is, are his sources reliable. I tried finding this post in the group but couldn’t find it.

I definitely would like to see Bissell sell the BG1000 under the Sanitaire brand. Sanitaire used to have Aerus make the SC6600 and SC6610 for them, I thought it was a business mistake to discontinue them because they were in my opinion one of the best Sanitaires ever sold. But now that Bissell sells the clone of the Aerus under the Big Green commercial line, I hope they would also get to sell it under the Sanitaire brand as well.
