can this be used in a kirby? is it low suds?

Yes it can. I've used both this and Kirby brand products, and I can't tell the difference. They both have some kind of "dirt shield" technology, and they both suds about the same amount. This stuff is more concentrated, however, so it isn't mixed at the same ratio.

The Scooba will break if you use anything but water, water/vinegar solution, or the stuff that they make you buy just for Scooba. I have been through 3 Scoobas and it turns out that they have a sensor inside (Customer Service told me) that will be destroyed/degraded if the solution isn't one of the above. In fact, I thought that I could at least SUCK UP whatever I put down, including diluted Mr. Clean. Nope. It broke on that...technically I was not breaking the "rules" not to use someone elses' cleaner, but it broke it. The Vinegar Water solution does an excellent job, stick with that and you'll do fine.

Yes. Just keep stirring on medium or low. Only problem is clean up might be difficult. This wax didn't want to come off anything we used.

Yes. It is somewhat of a myth that you need special "HE" detergent or cleaners for an HE machine. Typically, just use a smaller amount of any detergent or cleaner. It does not cause suds, so should be no problem using this.

I would not recommend it. Too much water. There is an attachment that you can buy for it. I had one with my first Hoover and was not impressed on Linoleum floors. I would purchase a steam mop instead for hard wood which I plan to do shortly. My daughter-in-law has a steam mop and she loves it. I have seen it in action. I don't remember the brand name though. Thought it was Sunbeam but I have seen reviews that aren't very good for Sunbeam. Good luck.

I.m not sure because I have all porcelain tile. But the nice feature is that it has 3 levels of steam so I'd think it would work on the lowest steam. I am so happy with this steamer. I had a Shark before which I was not happy with so I was happy to find this steamer. You are not supposed to use softener when you washed them. I found out the hard way. The steam doesn't dry as quickly on the floor. I rewashed the pads & I'll see if they work better this next time.

The mister clean part is only a slightly more heavy duty part of the pad. I do not think it would create the same issue as the sponge which is meant to be highly but gently abrasive, this is not. Make sure you are using the liquid for wood floors though. IMO based upon my experience these should not be an issue, but I have tile and can not really say for sure what affect they will have.

This vacuum will not work well on shaggy carpets as it has no height settings on the power-heard. The carpet will easily get tangled within the brush/beater bar. I DO NOT recommend this vacuum to shaggy carpet owners.

Yes, Mark, in our experience over many months they are strong enough. We have a larger than standard whirlpool tub, but the flaps extend far enough onto the tub edges to be supported. If your lift for some reason doesn't stay in place at the bottom, it could sway to the inboard side and lose the edge support. [ hasn't happened to us]. If your lift is sitting on a moderately molded-in non-skid surface, the suction cups will conform to the surface with a little time and warm water. If your tub has a "sandy" or very aggresive non-skid texture you have a problem. In that case, if the lift will remain in the tub without the need to remove it often,I would try a small dollop of Plumber's Goop on the outside edges of the suction cups. [Dry ,clean surfaces of course]. If you do this you will probably have to remove the lift from the suction-cup feet and carefully peel up the suction-cups with the help of something like a kitchen knife. I.e., the lift is strong enough...the attachment to tub bottom is key.

it should do the job, results depends on the cleaner you use, I use suds and it did a good job on my kitchen and bathroom tiles

I don't see why not. You can adjust the strength of the suction, using a dial on the canister. I suppose you can try the lowest suction. I'll have to try it myself. Never thought of using it, and my keyboard needs "dusting".

Yes. I use Softsoap. Go to Walmart and buy a clear ketchup bottle. Fill it with your liquid soap and then plunge the tip into the hole of the Lysol soap container. You may have to tilt the tip a bit to allow the soap to flow easily.

Absolutely . I have been using it for ever 2 years. Never seen suds in my washing machine.

We have a Kirby G6 I have no idea, try Kirby website and see if compatible. If they are I highly recommend these over the paper bags.

It's designed to make less suds for less water usage and rinse time. Make sure you are using HE (high efficiency) detergent.
2156227
yes you can. There is a brass horizontal tube with approx 5 various size holes in it which provide for the suction of fluid from the container to spray out. Read the instruction that come with it, because each hole setting does make a big difference from no suds to a lot of suds.

To be honest, I think all kirbys of all types use the same bags. I used to sell kirbys in the late 90's and they always used the same bags for all series. Peace.
