Cleans like a $30 vacuum--no you are right but handles like a tank. Come on.

Thieves and liars. If they've been to you door, you know that. We paid over $1900 for one. How stupid are we??! Then, please be warned, they only replace certain parts. Make sure you read that 3 year warranty. Thieves and CROOKS. Plus, just don't let them even come to your door.

Cleans just like a $30 vacuum??? NO WAY!!!

I have a G4 that I bought on Craigslist for $75 and I'd say its worth the $1000 dealer price. It is heavy but it is also self propelled. Bags are about $2 each but they filter better than hepa. Belts are about $3. It is made out of cast aluminum and will last 20 years or more. The only vacuum that comes close to the suction is a Dyson.

The Kirby is a vacuum for someone who really expects a clean, allergen controlled home, but not everyone has the same cleanliness standards OBVIOUSLY.

I have been using a $30 vacuum for almost a year now and it is kicking strong, my dog even chewed through the power cord and my husband wrap eletrical tape around it and it is still KICKING strong, Dont suggest the kirby again! Waste of money you can go on a trip for the price of one. I sold mine on craigslist for $100
