I'm a believer

For over 13 months I have been determined to make do with my 2 vacuum cleaners that we purchased when we first got here. The Eureka was a second hand purchase but is actually the better of the two. I keep it upstairs to clean the bedrooms. The one we purchased our first week is a piece of junk (I mean that in the nicest way of course). The belt breaks after just a few vacuums and the suction is almost non existent...

So in a fit, I went to Currys today and purchased a Dyson. Of course I had to take out a second mortgage on our house back in Illinois to buy this but let me tell you, it can suck up the dirt. Some say you can feel the carpet lifting as you vacuum. I'm not sure about that, but I can tell you when I would go through a path of dog hair it was obvious where I had vacuumed and where I had not - it created that line that I remember seeing on old vacuum commercials back in the states. I even found myself enjoying vacuuming. I think that is because it actually was working. You could tell I had vacuumed when I finished - what an amazing thought.

I cannot believe I have blogged about this, but hey, it is a chance to brag about Dyson (do I get a kick back for this...). Happy Cleaning!
