MY 82 mother in law allowed the saleman in her home by the free a shampoo offer,then the other salesman came in with a new vacuum,after three hours of hagling she said she bought it just to get them out of her house,she said no several times. She really didn't understand what she paid for it,she thought it was 2 or 3 hundred.It is much to heavy for her to use,and it was over her monthly budget,she paid half by check and the other on the credit card,wer'e hoping we can get part of it back from cc,but she was overwelmed by their high pressure.She tried to keep this from her family becuase she felt sooo bad and had spent all her money.I was really suprised when I googled this company and found the same story over and over.They need to be delt with ,no morals by this company who allow abuse of the elderly.SOUTHERN COLORADO,PUEBLO AREA!

  • If she's 82 years of age, she has 9 months from the date of purchase to return for a refund.

    GOLDEN AGER/DISABLED CONSUMER PURCHASE CANCELLATION PROCEDURE
    Any consumer who, at the time of purchasing a Kirby cleaning system, is at least sixty seven (67) years old or has a disability (regardless of age) which restricts or prevents the consumer’s use of the Kirby system, may cancel and rescind the purchase transaction up to nine (9) months after the date of purchase.

    Many Kirby "independent contractors" have taken advantage of elderly and disabled customers, even to the point of selling multiple overpriced vacuums to people with Alzheimer's! Kirby probably adopted this policy to setttle a lawsuit or lawsuits.
