Let's talk vacuums
« on: April 01, 2016, 08:25:04 PM »
Sure, they all suck, but which ones clean?

Scenario--

I have no pets, but 3 small kids.  Moving in to a new house, going to re carpet and want to take care of the carpet and keep it sanitary for the kids. 

Currently have a very mediocre vacuum.  Have never owned one I really liked before.

Is a stain or steam cleaner worth it for me?

Dyson. Still.
It's really great, plus it is named Dyson.

Can confirm Dyson makes a good vacuum.  We have three kids and a GSD that sheds a ton.

Bed Bath and Beyond lady said she has had more issues with Dyson than their top of the line Sharks. Inlaws have a Dyson and haven't complained about. 
If you go to BB&B they usually let you use your 15% or 20% coupons on vacs too.

The one I got, thinking for pets, but we don't have carpet and our pup doesn't get on the furniture so....

You may recall from combo fanning days of old that I once was worried my house was going to be robbed for my Dyson, which still may be the most valuable item I own that could reasonably be stolen.

It's a rough ridin' vacuum. I'd be worried about you if you did have complaints.

Kk- does your current vacuum work? If yes then do nothing and check back when it stops. Depending on the color of your new carpet you may want to consider a steam cleaner wet vac thing which you can buy for @$130.

Just a home carpet cleaner. You can google Hoover steam vac to get an idea. We have one and use it once a month in our main area because our carpet is close to white and we have two boys plus a dog. It's p good.
