People have been talking of a redesign for years. All we have to suggest a new model might be released is a Scott Fetzer patent from 2010. People have also discovered an unused trademark, "Avalier", which some assume is the new name. However, no one has ever presented concrete evidence as to when it will be released, or if Kirby has even built a prototype. CLICK HERE TO GO TO bagintheback's LINK |

Imagined if they came out with some new Super-Duper Filtering material for a cloth bag, and when the bag filled, it alerted the user! As simple a a pressure gauge in top of the bag, connected by wire...
BUT ANYWAYS, I would hate that handle design! I wouldn't care if they had such a possibility of this feature, but couldn't the light be by the foot switch?

July 2012-Thanks-just couldn't remember.Is Kirby going to wait until AFTER 2014 to introduce a new model-since the Sentria 2 is only a year old-that may be the case-even though 2014 is the 100th year. |

I would hope Kirby would wait until the actual 100th anniversary. Jim Kirby wouldn't meet Mr. Scott and Mr. Fetzer until almost at the end of World War 1. And they didn't make any vacuums until 1919. The Ezee was never made by Scott and Fetzer - it was made by Frantz Premier - don't know why it's on the Scott and Fetzer timeline. Their first vacuum was the Vac U Ette in 1919.
