I got my 1st and only Kirby G5 8 years ago 2nd hand from a mate who worked at a vacuum cleaner shop, he sold german cleaners new. He told me that the Kirby was still the best vacuum he had ever seen or used. Several other friends got new dysons, for around about $1000 NZ, all of them have broken down, and have been replaced,that 4 broken plastic dysons.
There are a few problems with the Kirby, the bags are really expensive, they are heavy, its hard to get into corners, but there are so many plus points that make up for the bad points.
I wouldn't advised older people to get a kirby, as they are a bit heavy, but if you have pets, ( i have 3 long hair cats, and there fur sticks like glue to the carpet), the kirby is the best I have used, and I have used many cleaners. The head light is great too, designed for stairs I was told, I can see into the dark corners.

About a year ago, I was told about an new upright, wet n dry, I went and spoke to the sales man, once he found out I had a kirby, he advised me to keep it, and that there are better cleaners on the market, but they wont last.

oh also, after I used the kirby, the carpets are so clean, you can feel just how clean they are when you walk on them in clean bare feet. Strange kind of comment, but you notice the feeling.

I hope this review is helpful.
