I think they're all idiots.
Vacuum cleaners are disposable. When they break or don't work as well after 4-5 years, just go buy a new one for $150.

Many of the complaints involve "older customers who lack the will to stand up to grueling sales pitches."[3] The Wall Street Journal records examples where an elderly couple was unable to remove three Kirby salesmen from their home for over five hours; in another example, a disabled woman who had been living alone in a mobile home on $1000/month in Social Security payments and suffering from Alzheimer's disease was discovered to own two Kirby vacuum cleaners, having paid $1,700 for the second one.[3] In 2002, the Florida Agriculture and Consumer Services Commissioner obtained $13,000 in refunds for 13 senior citizens.[16]
According to the Wall Street Journal, the device "costs more than four times what other top-of-the-line vacuum cleaners do."[3] Kirby compares the price difference to that between luxury and economy cars, yet "luxury-car dealers don't make house calls in trailer parks. But Kirby dealers do."[3] The Kirby vacuum cleaner is "marketed exclusively door-to-door — often to people who can ill afford a $1,500 gadget, but succumb to the sales pitch nonetheless."[3]

My grandmother did this in like 1980. They came to the US in 1979 and her first major purchase was some fancy Electrolux vacuum cleaner that cost $800 in 1980. It was a 180 vacuum cleaner and it lasted until 2008. It was so 180 that we bought another one in 2008 when that one finally died. The basic model is still in production and costs the same $800.

The only thing that's changed is the color and the shape a tiny bit. Otherwise they've been making the same model since the 70s and it rocks.
