Ladies and Danny Tanner: Vacuum Question

[DanB]

Yes I bought my wife a Dyson Animal for Christmas last year. Still married. She loved it. Guess who uses it more than she does? Yes Me. I just get vacuuming duty while she does other things like Laundry.

I love it. Yellow Lab and Corgie hair were our nemisis. With this one we hardly have a hair problem. It pulls more dirt out than our 15-20 year old panisonic vaccume.

Its no 1500 Kirby which I refuse to use after one of their door to door salesmen came into my house once. Never again.

Danny hit one good point. the dust that is kicked up when vaccuming is minimized with this one. No sneezing when I get done.

Well worth the money paid for it.

We bought a DC28 Animal a couple months back, I have to do a head count on the critters now because it looks like one of the dogs or cats are swirling around in the collector.
Did I just mention a vacuum and cats in the same thread?------

Here's my man card.

I think when it is upgrade time we'll get the DC25 Animal or DC28 Animal. Whichever my wife chooses.

My first thought is the wicked silent treatment she'll give you after you present her with a vacuum on Christmas morning.

i bought my wife an iron and ironing board for her birthday once.....still have not lived that one down and that was 17 years ago!

I'm surprised by how many Dyson fanboys we have despite all the evidence and demonstrations of how they aren't very good and many other vacuum designs are much better. The power of marketing, I guess.

hmmmm...one of my marriage vows was that I would never buy her an appliance as a gift.

Thinking about getting the wife a Dyson DC25 Animal for Christmas. Anybody have any suggestions on the DC25 Animal or any other ones. Don't want to get too far above $500.

Thanks.

We bought one just a couple of weeks ago and really like it. You will have go get used to seeing all of the stuff that it picks up. We had a Kohl's discount coupon that the mail out. This one was a 30% off so we ended up with a good deal.

I bought mine based on recommendation on the Siberian Husky mailing list. You have not seen fur until you have a couple of huskies.

My wife loves hers, and I bought it for her birthday.

Dyson ball, $279, I got mine from woot 4 or 5 years ago. works great. These deals only last 24 hours, so you have to act quick.

Oh, and I have 3 kids. It has been dropped down the stairs more times than I can count.
