Kirby Vacuum - G5 Upright Vacuum Reviews

Please help me expose the so-called salespeople from Great Southern Distributing, out of Tuscaloosa, AL.  They are targeting homes in our county, claiming to be selling Kirby Vacuums.  This is a three-person team that after verification, does work for the GSD.  They are representing themselves as either college students, or disabled vets, in order for the person at the home to feel sorry for them and allow them to "demonstrate" the Kirby Vacuum.  After the seemingly-sweet young "college student" gives her spill about how she will get credit for the visit even if you do not buy anything, and...

If you like Uprights, but can't find a quality one, you just found the product for you. It is expensive, but look at it the way you would a new dishwasher, or refridgerator. You are buying a quality cleaning appliance that is going to last you several years.
