Wow! SO much input!
K I've had a Kirby for years-I think it is the 4th generation model. Very heavy. I like it because I can shampoo my carpets though and thats pretty simple and nice too.
I went out and bought the Dyson DC17-So far I love it! I have short carpet, shag carpet, tile and hardwood floor in my house! There is a button at my fingertips that turns the beaters off for my hardwood floors! The attachment hose is my favorite though!! All you do is pull the hose up and out! No taking the machine apart and attaching the hose, etc! It is so handy-love this part!
Also with this new model you do not have to touch the canister when you empty, therefor you are not leaning down next to the dust when you empty it. The release is on top at your fingertips! So far...LOVE this Dyson!
Oh and I got mine at Sears-I have 90 days to return it and of course they will price match any store!
