I have been vacuuming my home once a week and always seemed to have a lot of dust and dirt, as we live in the country on a dirt road, and track in a lot of dirt.  Also, we have a dog and cat who come in and out as they please, so we always had a lot of dander and hair.

My husband and I sneezed a lot...

 i felt we were pressured into buying this vacume, i hate the fact that it is sooo heavy to carry up and down stairs and takes time to switch from vac to hose  and back again, athough it really has come in handy for blowing up things and shampooing rugs and all the other gadgets that came with it but...

I recently purchased a Kirby Sentria.....I couldn't believe how much better it performed than my previous vacuum cleaner....You have 2 choices...1) spend money on several different vacuums throughout your life or 2) buy one Kirby vacuum....It's that simple...Why spend money on vacuums that don't work as well just because they are cheaper...Do yourself a favor and buy a Kirby and you won't regret it!....I've read some complaints on the internet about Kirby vacuums...too loud....heavy....and so forth....Trust me....It is quieter than my last vacuum...a lot quieter!...and my Kirby Sentria has a built... review »

The Kirby Sentria vacuum is great, the attachements are great, you have a vacuum, a blower, and a shampooer all in one. It's very pricey, but it should be the only vacuum that you will need to buy. Kirby is supposed to have a service, where they will bring your Kirby back to life (like new), if it breaks on you. Mine hasn't broken yet, so I can't say if that service is true or not. The salesman was good....too good obviously....I bought one! I will be making payments on this thing forever....which makes me sick whenever I think about it, but I guess the saying is true...you get what you pay for.... review »

This is one of the best things we have ever spent our money on!!  Worth every cent we paid.  We have a home with 8 rescue dogs and 5 rescue cats.  I have noticed a significant reduction of dust since we purchased this machine.  My husband was not home for the demo, (which in itself was odd that someone would be coming door to door out where we live.... in the middle of nowhere) but I asked thesales rep to leave the filters.  At first he said "we are absolutley not spending $1000 on a vacuum."  Then he stepped into our 14 month old son's room where I insisted she demo the vacuum, since I used...

  Kirby is a complete scam!!! I worked for Rick Smith of KIRBY OF CONCORD and got suckered into working there for two weeks and never even got a paycheck!! I basicaly learned how to screw over customers in Ricks daily meeting. I never knew I was being hired to push vacuums on old people!! Watch out for KIRBY OF CONCORD!!!!

I love my Sentria... It is so easy to use and to change from the brush to the hand held hose to the shampooer.  It is easy to operate and the new drive feature is awesome. It virtually moves itself with just a simple push. I cleans so well and the bags literally last forever. I  have had mine for about 9 months or more and have only changed the bag once. I have shampooed my dad's carpets, spot cleaned my carpet and have even taken it to work with me and shampooed my carpets there. I have a one year old son and having clean carpets are of a big concern to me as he is always on the floor.  My...

The Kirby Sentria is the best investment I have ever made! I learned so much from the demonstration and everything I learned I researched and found to be very true. In many studies by vacuum professionals the Sentria out cleaned every vacuum, sometimes by as much as 3 to 4 times better. It even cleaned 3 times better then a Dyson. Nothing can get sand and grit out from under the carpet padding but the Sentria. I clean my matteress once a month, I no longer get sleepys in my eyes or wake up with a stuffy nose. It eliminated the dust mites all together. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats and there is never...

I was reluctant to buy my Kirby Sentria because of the price.  I'm glad I did because it has been the best purchase I have made to-date.  This vacuum is amazing and I know that I will have it forever!  The suction power is so intense, it lifts the carpet up from the floor (not all the way up, just enough so that you can see that it is powerful and is working).  My only gripe about the vacuum is the fact that you have to stop the machine and take the "head" of the vacuum off so you can attach the nozzle end to get into corners good.  It only takes a second but this is one feature I miss from... review »

Without a questions the best vacuum I have ever owned.  Only a few downsides: 1)  I wish were it a bit lighter in weight 2) changing the head was a bit easier and simpiler.

I have used all of the componets and they all work as they should. The shampoo attachment is wonderful.

Kirby's are heavy, klunky, way more expensive than they are worth. You're better off buying a brand new Oreck every four years, getting the latest and greatest technologies, and still paying less than owning the same Kirby for 12 years. Replacement parts are ridulously priced, too.

Since I've owned a Kirby, all my baseboards have been damaged from the heavy head that comes with a black rubber bumper that leaves black rubber streaks all over your baseborads and/or chips off the paint. I can never get under low furniture, such as beds and dressers, which forces me to move heavy furniture to get...

    My housekeeper is still thanking me for replacement of my old dirt devil vacuum with a Kirby Sentria after a year of using it.  And with the carpet and uphostery attachments, there is no need to rush out for resolve cleaner in a can to get a spill spot up quickly before it stains- she can just bring out the kirby- also great for carpet cleaning that dries right away.  This vacuum is strong and dependable, it will last a lifetime. I am very pleased with this vacuum and believe it is totally worth the cost.

When the Kirby salesman came to the door I was skeptical and convinced that I would not be purchasing this machine.  Boy if I ever had to eat my words it would be that day!  The Kirby Sentria vacuum after using it on my off white couches got so much dirt out that they were actually a different color when I was finished. After using this machine, my home is clean and disinfected.  After a simple read through of the manual, I have used all of the attachments on a regular basis and have a cleaner house than ever!

The kirby is the best thing to own! The vacuum does a great job but the steam cleaner is even better. A member of my family is relocating and had to get the house ready to put on the market to sell. The carpet in one of the bedrooms we thought was beyond cleaning and would have to be replaced. We thought we'd buy the cleaning solution and use the Kirby before making the expense. It turned out awesome, looked brand new! Get one, you wont reget it!!
