Kirby Vacuum - G4 — 

I used to have a hard time telling door to door sales people no so obviously I bought the Kirby G4. It was about 10 or 11 years ago and it was about $1200 I believe. We made payments on it and eventually paid it off. For a while I thought I made a bad decision in paying so much for a vacuum. But about a year ago the fan housing unit busted because my kids thought it would pick of everything (which it basically does but over time it realizes it is being abused lol). I borrowed a friend's vacuum and it picks up NOTHING compared to the Kirby! I couldn't afford to get it fixed for a while so I suffered using the "other" and luckily we had taken out our carpet in most of the house.

Just a few days ago I took it to be repaired (a place I would NOT recommend- Kirby Company of Port Huron, MI). I paid $88.00 to have it repaired and the first thing I did was vacuum and loved it. It was so worth it!

So, if you ever wonder what the big deal is.... try your vacuum and then try Kirby!

I bought my kirby g4 in 1993. & payed $1200.00 for it in payments. I thought i made a BIG mistake. My husband was very mad at me paying that much for it he told me to drive the kirby to work. I payed more for the sweeper then my car. (lol) but now i would never give it up that sweeper has been very abused and still works as good as the first day I bought it
