Hertz, I still disagree with what you read. The cleaning performance proclaimed by GreatVac about Kirby, is not a better performing motor which is the same on all Generations but the brushroll. Kirby changed on the G-5 on to Sentria the brushroll . Instead four 6" rows they went to eight 6" rows. The bristles are thinner and stiffer. They give a little better performance than previous brushrolls in cleaning and this is the only change made to enhance performance. According to an old Kirby Distributor.

You nailed it......once you put a sentria brushroll on any g series....they all perform the same...no diff whatsoever ... thats been my findings also in side by side testing and actual use at the shop and at home.....none of us at the shop are seeing any increase in performance after the br upgrade. Gotta say your dead on procare. turtle

when I said I don't like Kirbys, I meant using them cuz they're too beautiful to get scratched/dented. btw I got TWO Ultimate G Kirbys today (both trash finds, one has a hose only; neither have any other tools; both VG shape & work good) Are you serious?! Haha, I think you might have OCD man, you need to NOT worry about scratching your Kirby; just be careful and all will be well :]

Ha, hahahahaha. What's wrong with you man? Point is, you're acting ridiculous. You state you prefer you're other Kirby's, then say you don't like them, and now say a Sanitaire will out clean. That statement is false, at least when it comes to the newer G series Kirby's - G4 (with Sentria brushroll) all the way to the Sentria. They all will either match or beat the Sanitaire, and my money's on the Kirby's beating it. FYI. The Kirby generation series machines use different brush rollors, You CAN NOT interchange rollors from a g6 up into a G5 or G4. Nor can you interchange a G5 into a G3 or G4. \Yes you can turn the bearing caps around and it will fit, Just watch the rotation of the brush rollor, [HINT] it turns backwards. Many suppose Kirby repair experts do this and are sabotaging the machines by accident. I should be charging for this information............. Venson you still got the G5............ regards MOLE
