and I just wanted to say that they are not worth what they cost. So if anyone was ever curious, don't be.
I used to sell coke to this crack addict that used to steal those, and he would trade me a gram for a dyson. Not a bad deal, they are worth $40. Just keep it CLEAN and mine works great.
I have the animal hair one and while it does okay on hardwood, it doesn't do the job on the area rug. I have a cheap as hell vacuum that works great on the rug but does shitty on the bare floor, so I have to use two vacuums. Luckily, the were both free. I wouldn't ever buy a Kirby because of their shitty pushy sales tactics. Anyone ever have those fuckers at your house? I went off on them and scared one of the guys. You should have seen the look on his face. You have to cuss them and start acting like a nutjob to get them to leave.
All you have to do is ask them if their product will remove bloodstains from carpet, and they usually proceed to the next house rather promptly...
So the Dyson is sitting in the garage, broken. If I didn't get it out of my sight, it was going to be really broken. It's made with cheap-ass plastic pieces that break easily. I bought a Eureka for 90 bucks and it's great. I think I may just suck up the Dyson with it.
