My wife had a Kirby for over 20 years. Then my sister and another friend of hers each bought a Miele and both loved them. Naturally my wife had to have one also. The Kirby was still going strong, but the filter was always a pain to change and it was heavy and cumbersome. So far she seems to really like the Miele and says she would not go back to the Kirby. BTW, neither the Kirby or the Miele are inexpensive machines.
