    Best vacuum cleaner?

    We currently have a wertheim with power head that is almost 9 years old and having a few issues, it has been great and I could probably spend a by and get it serviced and repaired but thinking about a new one.

    Dyson? Meile? What do you have. I want to definitely have a turbo/power head and needs to be good for hard floors and carpet.

    What type of Dyson N2L?

    I have been tossing up between an upright or a normal one?

    Normal. I can't remember the model but I can check when home.

    I have a DYSON & I love it, even considering buying the stick version for 'on the go' cleaning but DP won't agree

    I have a barrel Dyson and a hand held Dyson.

    And I bought a roomba. Haven't used the Dysons since.

    The roomba does a good job between the fortnightly cleaner. But if I only had one, I'd get the big Dyson.

    Had a Kirby. Hated it. Too heavy.

    Dyson. The latest model has just been released (6 years in development, watch TVSN if you want to know it all). I am drooling over the new one, I so want it. I have had two Dysons in the past 15 years.

    Biggest tip, get all the tools you can with the model you choose. An extra $50 now, can save a couple of $100's later when you realise you do want the dusting wand etc

    Great tip!

    I'm going to check out Miele and Dyson this arvo I think. We have a Miele front loader washing machine and I love it! But used a friends Dyson and love it too.

    I think now with Dyson the allergy bit does not matter, the names really just refer to how many attachments. The Animal pro has the most, even though really some of them are not animal related at all.

    I'm a Dyson girl too. I've had two over the past 10 years - a secondhand DC 07, and now a DC 39 allergy. They have improved greatly over the years and I really do find them to be the best - especially for allergy sufferers or people with pets. They are also really easy to manoeuver so better for your back xx

    I have a Dyson Allergy and its great*.
    Easy to use, not too heavy, suction is excellent.


    *Then again, after living without a vacuum cleaner at all for the last year I think Id have been excited at the prospect of a dust buster. Lol

    We have a Dyson Animal upright. It's very powerful. We've had it over a year and it's already been back for fixing.

    We also have a LG Roboking, which is great. Not as powerful, but it cleans when we're not there. We get the Dyson out about once a fortnight.

    I loved my dyson, I miss my dyson, my back misses my dyson :'(

    The next vac I get will be another upright dyson, the one we have on loner from my parents works, but its killing my already shot back. Plus I have to really work to suck up everything whereas the dyson (in its functional days) did that one go.

    We're saving for the allergy dyson.

    Do you need the animal or allergy models if you have no pets or carpet?
