A Review, not a feedback.
5 von 5 finden das hilfreich It's strange that some reviewers choose to use the platform to sound off about the seller rather than review the product. The G4 came out around 1993-96, so you are buying a machine at least 15 years old. Be prepared for minor irritations. A machine I may add that may have cost the original purchaser £1500. Now possible to buy one for under a £100. That said, they are industrially styled, robust, repairable and very efficient. The cloth bags CAN smell, but can be hand washed. (A replaceable paper bag goes inside) They do go wrong, mainly the beater bar, and it's fairly expensive but easily replaced. The white plastic fan can crack up, but look at youtube and there's plenty of videos showing you how to replace it. The mains cable does break inside the the outer sheath and this is difficult to find. Sometimes advertised simply as 'nothing happens when it's switched on', but only buy if you're savvy with mechanics. This model has a 'servo' effect, powering the model back and forth without running away with you! It's quite gentle. If this unit breaks down, and you're not too mechanical, best look for another complete machine and keep the old one for spares. They are mainly offered with an array of tools, some unused with the added text 'I don't know what they're for' Well, the spray gun, Suds gun and the carpet shampooer can go straight back in the box for a start (or the bin!). What is useful is the extra long hose, sometimes not with every machine. It's a little daunting to attach the first time, but easy the second. What else is available? Well don't discount the Heritage (1981) or the Legend (1989), old yes but superb quality, and these normally come with all the tools. Some come with a 'Handi Butler' strange name but is an attachment to drive a flexible shaft and calico polishing mop and 'soap'. Worth buying one just for this in the workshop as most are still unused, and of course it doesn't matter what the bag/handle or front beater is like, they all come off anyway. The early ones came with a wardrobe Moth removing attachment, don't even ask but think DDT and a blower! Watch for one fairly locally, no point in driving miles and miles and using petrol, (most sellers think they cost a fortune to post) P4D.co.uk will collect and deliver for £6.99 + VAT, get it down to 120x45x30 cms however. Belts and bags available on eBay,and if you want to know what model came out in what year, go to http://www.bags-and-parts.co.uk/pages/kirby-history.htm and print it off as an aide memoir. In a nutshell, it's unlikely you will buy a Pup. Most have been pressure sold to the vulnerable, treasured and serviced, and now find the (24lbs) weight is too much to lug up and down stairs as they get older and get sucked in (sorry!) with the latest Dyson ads. The alloy polishes up beautifully, by hand if you wish, the plastic washes and car-polishes up nicely, and they're a quality product, no two ways about it! I've collected a few on eBay now, back to 1965, and not one has had a major problem. Well, one had the lead broken as I mentioned earlier. Get to know them first via youtube and collectors forums if possible, they're not for everyone. But if you like the Yank lifestyle (and weird names of the attachments, Suds-O-Gun for a start!), industrial looks and a bit of 'status' really, go for it, it's a 1957 Chevy in your living room and you'll always get your money back reselling it on eBay anyway, even if it eventually doesn't work. Oh, happy Kirby'ing folks!
