This guys posting of a "Survey" is an obvious way for them to cold call
people into buying one of their machines.  I sold Kirbys for a while one
summer, and experienced their different tactics.

You win a free carpet cleaning, or they just want to come in and "Sweep your
carpet" and give you a free bottle of pop for "allowing" them to do so.

If you like Kirby's, go for it.  The salesman's bottom line (when I was
selling) was LESS THAN 50 PERCENT of that $1,400.00 price tag they had on
that advertising sheet.
