Are Kirby vacuum cleaners worth the price? What do you think about Kirby?
I had never heard of Kirby vacuum cleaners until the other night when a couple of Kirby salesmen came to my door asking if I wanted to have my carpets cleaned for free.
I won't go into the details about Kirby's sales techniques, which I do find unappealing, but I'm curious if anybody out there has bought a Kirby vacuum and if you think it's worth the price.
I can tell you that they were asking more than $1,800 for the newest model (the Sentria). The lowest they would go was $1180. I never knew vacuums could cost so much so I figured that these Kirby vacuum cleaners must be something you would use practically forever! And I ended up passing on the offer -- even though the vacuum was quite impressive itself.
Anyone have experiences with Kirby vacuum cleaners? Are they worth the money in your opinion?

My mother bought her Kirby literally 20+ years ago. I believe hers did cost around a thousand... but she still uses it and loves it. We have a local Kirby store that always has replacement hoses if we need them, or another part.
So.. yes. A vacuum cleaner that lasts more than twenty years- no joke - is definitely worth the price.

I LOVE my kirby!
it's great, a little complicated, and it'll take some learning and a few weeks to get used to it, but the price is so worth it!
