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.
I'm sneaking in too. We need to buy a vacuum soon too :)
I have a Dyson. Very happy with it.
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.
We also have a Dyson and I rate it. We have a barrel model.
I have a DYSON & I love it, even considering buying the stick version for 'on the go' cleaning but DP won't agree :p
Another Dyson lover :) Not had anything else for many years.
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 ;)
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.
We had a wertheim for several years before getting our Dyson, the animal model :) We love it!
Do you need the animal or allergy models if you have no pets or carpet?
I got the allergy because we dont have pets and I liked the idea of the better filter. I hate it when the room ends up smelling like Ive been vacuuming (like dust I guess). Lol
Edit: I will have carpet in the next few weeks
Another vote for the Dyson. I love mine :) I had quite a few cheapies before we took the plunge and spent a small fortune on it. Wish I had of done it sooner!!
Don't we love our Dysons? :)
We've got one too. Barrell with Hepa filter. Is that the allergy thing? Coerced DH into buying it just after we got married so its been going almost 6 years. Still going strong. DH freaked about how much it cost and wanted to buy another one but I convinced him and he's really glad we got it now - it is great.
Now I'm working to convince him we need a robot vac ;) Wish Dyson made those!
Edit: ooh.
Dyson robot vac rumour...
Another dyson owner here.
We love ours. The house we just moved out of had horrible shag carpet that everything got stuck in the fibres of. The dyson was fantastic for picking up everything. The day we bought it, I'd just finished vacuuming with my old vacuum and couldn't wait to try the dyson and the amount of stuff it got out of my carpet that the other vacuum missed was crazy!
Another Dyson fan. We've got the DC19 (barrel) from about 6 years ago. Love it, it's brilliant. I've got my eye on their new one though and gave DH the thumbs up to buy me a cleaning appliance for Xmas :lol: That one is about $950 though so I'm not sure Santa will be quite that generous.
We have had dysons for about 12 years (2 in that time) and I recently got a Miele. I'm so happy with it - we have dogs and hard floors and carpets and got the dog and cat one and it is so much better than my old Dyson was.
ATM I have a Kirby and hate it if it didn't cost me so much I'd throw it out. Thought I was upgrading.
I do have an upright dyson and love love love it.. I really wish the Kirby wasn't expected to last 20 odd years cause I would get a dyson today if it died.
I haven't researched it or anything but I'd say that the stronger suction etc is also fantastic for general dust and not just pet hair :) Our cats barely shed so animal hair isn't the biggest problem for us either. You can clean couches and cars so don't let the no carpet put you off.:
We have a normal dyson (no bells & whistles) & I love that it doesn't leave that dusty smell behind it.
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
We have an upright dyson, it's about 2yrs old now and I love it. It had to be repaired due to faulty parts, which we sent the vacuum to dyson they fixed it and returned it all free of charge, I would never go back to a cheaper one, or a barrel one. Best bonus is that all the kids love to vacuum for me since getting this one, even the husband loves vacuuming now :lol:
