What are everybody's opinions on the Kirby HI/HII/LI/LII vacuum cleaners/carpet shampooers?

they work good but are over priced .

i'm a professional carpet air purifier, and it is my journey with Kirbys. they're good vacuums, little question approximately it, yet, i could never use the shampooer featuring it because of the fact it leaves too lots residue on the carpet fibers and could entice airborne dirt and dirt quicker afterwords. additionally, figuring out to purchase a Kirby is like figuring out to purchase a vehicle. they initiate out with a value it is waayyy overvalued and that they have lots of "room" to come again down on the value till you experience which you acquire an excellent value. I actual have asked a lot of human beings and the perfect deal on a clean kirby with each and all the "toys" that I actual have heard of is $750.00. I actual have never heard of every person getting one to any extent further low-value, yet I actual have heard of human beings paying as much as $2000.00. i'm going to show you how to recognize that the perfect purchase for the money is a hoover wind-tunnel upright with the disposable bag, with the "embedded airborne dirt and dirt finder". approximately $179.00 at Sears (or different shops). i could placed this vacuum up against any vacuum and is lots extra appropriate than a Kirby!

My opinion is that you NEVER want to buy a carpen shampoo machine. The ones for regular people are really worthless. The best thing to do is get somebody over to shampoo your carpets - they have a huge machine in their truck, and it actually works. Talk to any rental outfit or store that sells construction materials - the contractors often hire these guys to clean up their places... and they're not that expensive.

Absolutely love my G3. I've had it for over 20yrs had no problems what so ever. It takes a licking and keeps on ticking.
