Same thing happened to us about 40 yrs ago when we were just married and living in a rented flat. Guy went around and showed us all the dirt the Kirby picked up. Got real insulting so I threw him out. Wife said she REALLY wanted that vacuum. Waited a few days and called the company and bought it from another sales guy. Fast forward 10 years when we're in our first house. Come home and find the next door neighbor's kid in the house demonstrating a Kirby. Ended up buying a 2nd one (wife wanted to help the kid :roll: )
The thing is they are VERY good vacuums. We still have both and one is kept upstairs for the bedrooms and the other on the main floor. Have had to replace the rubber bands that spin the roller but otherwise, I can't complain. They weren't cheap but my kids have had other vacuums that don't seem to last more than a year or so.
In fact, I inherited my grandmother's Kirby back in the '70s and I used it at my office for a number of years and sold it in a garage sale in the '80s for $10, IIRC. I think she bought it in late 30's or 40's.
