    Dyson or Electrolux

    Any advice - I'm really stuck, i've decided i am going to buy a new vacuum cleaner - despite DH saying there is nothing wrong with the second hand one we have already - but with new carpet getting layed in the next 2 weeks, i want to make sure its well looked after, and kept clean for when bubby arrives....

    Anyhoo - i'm tossing up between a Dyson bagless barrell and an electrolux twinclean.... does anyone have either of these to help me decide????

    saying that my parents have had same electrolx for 20 years and they have only just stopped using it!!! so they last well also

    But Dyson are sexy!!! (i have the purple ball one)

    We have a Dyson barrel vac and we are very happy with it.

    We have cats so we need to get the hair up off the carpet.
    Its amazing how much stuff ends up in the barrel after each vac - almost embarrassing !
    Good luck !

    I am in love with my Dyson - I regularly threaten to leave DH for it...

    It's amazing and it's true what ChickyBabe said. When I bought mine I had already vac'd the day before with my old vac and what came up off our carpets made me gag!!!!

    I love our dyson - got it without telling DH as I couldn't stand that my hair wouldn't get picked up with our previous machine. It took a little for DH to get used to it but now he's used to it, he does some of the vacuuming (did it yesterday while DS was sleeping and I was resting from feeding ). I got the upright smaller one (I can't quite remember the style name) as I figured I could cope with emptier it a little more often.

    Can't help with any info on the electrolux as I've never used one.
