I installed a CWP Brushroll into my Hoover Elite 350 to replace the single row brush it had. That alone improved that vacuum and they are really well built. I have one on the way for my 1999 SP Windtunnel to replace its original brushroll. |

And, they gave us each a
scrub brush on a handle, made out of scraps. I still have mine... on display with my other vacuum 'stuff'. And, watching that fabric speed into that machine and be turned out as a Kirby bag.. fun! They couldn't have been nicer. I still doubt I'll use my brush roll. But.......................... |

Douglas Products is also part of the conglomerate. They made the hand held vacs as well as the electric vacuette hand held vac, for Kirby as well as under their own brand name Douglas. When the VCCC went to the Kirby Company many years ago, they were very nice to us and even gave us a rug we used for the Cleaning Contest. I enjoyed going to the Kirby Company (as well as Filter Queen) with the club. Jimmy Martin won a free Defender from Filter Queen the day we toured their plant.

Yes, a few short years ago, the club went to Kirby. First, we were ;uninvited'. We had to have a long talk with them, and THEN they re-invited us, under careful scrutiny. It turned out that they were notified and advised to NOT allow us there by someone who tried to thwart the visit. (no more details here) That got remedied, and we were welcomed all over. We were even treat tho luncheon at their Kirby Kafe. On to Filter Queen later in the day. Again, most gracious to us. We all had a great time. The VCCC no longer uses any kind of special carpet for the cleaning contest, but uses the ones in hotels. We leave them cleaner than they were before we got there.

Anyone else having issues accessing CWP's website? I tried getting on there to look up their products and such, but it doesn't seem to be working right for me. Maybe I'm not using the right browser or it's the wrong site or something!
