DYSON ANIMAL VS Hoover Self Propelled Wind Tunnel

http://www.bargains101.com/appliances/3573.html

I bought mine (Dyson Animal) here, they have the best price and free shipping in the continental U.S.

I have had it a month, it is amazing.

I was considering getting a central vac system, as our new house was set up for it. But I talked to a friend (an MDC mama friend IRL) and she told me I would hate the central vac, but to get a dyson, another friend got one and loved it.

So I did. It makes me want to clean everything! :LOL

I am always looking for places to use it.

We have a dog and a cat. The cat is a long-haired white angora. The Dyson Animal really gets the hair. I use the special attachments.

Did I convince ya?

I have never had a vacuum that worked this well, ever...



Oh, P.S. do you want to come try it?

As I said, I bought mine here. They have the lowest prices on NEW Dysons. (you can get refurbished ones at Amazon for around $300, someone was telling me.)

$445.00 and that includes the shipping.

I was looking at paying $1200 for a central vac. I have had several makes of vacuums, none lasted very long. The Dyson has a 2 year warranty. It is an AMAZING vacuum. No comparison.

I hate housework, but I using this vacuum.

I also check out epinions a lot
and I have found MDC home cleaning ops to be fantastic as well
Thanks for reminding me to go look again !

You never know who else a thread might help

I LOVED LOVED LOVED that vac..

it suffered a household accident that could not be repaired

Mine too - sadly, it was my fault too. I was pregnant and a hostage to my hormones, lol, and something got stuck in the attachment part (you know, the part that doubled as the handle?) Well, I banged it on the ground to unlodge the object (which worked before), but this time, I was mad about something else and when I banged it, I did it too hard and broke the handle. So I sobbed over it. Ah, pregnancy hormones...dh was so happy when I gave birth :LOL We also lost a remote control - it died a violent death when I threw it at my dresser...see, I was already overdue, unhappy, hormonal, and flipping through channels trying to find something to take my mind off the fact I was hormonal, overdue, had an 8 1/2 lb baby wedged in my hips and I flipped onto "A Baby Story" just as the doctor announced that it was a girl and handed the happy mama the newborn. I threw the remote and burst into tears...yeah, I can see why dh was thrilled when I finally gave birth, lol!

And just so you know, no other household electronics or appliances have been murdered since then :LOL

We had a Dirt Devil once... It was the worst vacuum ever. It had poor suction and died completely after a little over a year.

I use the Dyson for everything. Wood floors and berber carpet, sofas, dusting everything too, LOL. I don't need to use swiffer-type stuff anymore, it cleans better than swiffers and dust clothes.

This is my logic. I have had vacuums we paid $100, $150, $175 and $200. None lasted more than a few years, most lasted a couple years. We have had hoovers, dirt devils, panasonic (that one melted itself, and I was always replacing belts too.), eureka. They all lost suction quickly. I was willing to take the risk on the Dyson. My house has never been so clean. I have a shedding cat and dog, I use it everyday. I used to always have to use the swiffer duster for the hair. I save a lot of time and effort with the Dyson. The warranty is 2 years, so how can I lose, and I believe I will have this Dyson for longer than that. And the long hose and attachments are just incredible.

Oh, and if you do not plan to have any pets, just get the basic model, not the Animal, you can save a few bucks.

HTH
