Vacuum Cleaner!

I've got a Dyson as well. It's really nice when it's clogged, Dyson has done a great job thinking things out so it's easy to get to every part of the vacuum and to the filters. The bad part is when a belt breaks, you have to take half the thing apart to fix it. I've replaced the belt twice in mine in 3 years. 2 girls with long hair, and then a Golden Retriever who's full time job is to shed, so the vacuum gets a LOT of use!

 

But.... is it ported?

 

That's one strong woman and a crazy strong vaccum as well!

 

Just had to tear apart our Shark this weekend. First time since we bought it 6 months ago. The SIL had used it to vacuum up baking soda (which we use as carpet cleaner) except it was still damp from her "methods". The insides of pretty much everything was caked with the stuff but the carpet, in that spot, is cleaner than everywhere else! Anyway, it's a decent vac but the storage container is pretty small. If we do the rug in the living room once a week we can get by on one dumping. If it goes longer than that it'll take 2 dumping for sure. 3 dogs (lab/rott crosses) and 2 cats upstairs so that'll happen.

 

My old room mate had a dog and he would always use carpet fresh when he vacuumed. I am still finding carpet fresh every time I clean the vacuum.

 

Steam is what typically sets off my asthma. The cat is doing good, been using wipes and water-less shampoo on him.

 

My wife fills up the Dyson twice each week, although she does go over everything twice whenever she vacuums. She likes to make a point to show me every time how much "my" dog (Golden Retriever) sheds and points out that "her" 2 cats don't shed that much!
