The Dyson Animal :)

Glad you like it Pam! Yes, Dyson's are a wonderful invention! I love ours!

I have no faith in vacuum cleaners, none. I have bought the less expensive model-$80.00 or so, all the way up to what I consider expensive $350. After a month or two, they all seem the same to me- lame. I have tried bagless and bagged, I can't see a difference.

I have a small house, no wall to wall carpet, just five or six large faux oriental rugs. I would love to have a vac that cleans the hardwood floors, the carpets, and the upholstered furniture!

Do you Dyson lovers think a Dyson would work on area rugs and hardwood?

Mine has a setting for bare floor and a setting for carpet. And I have wall-to-wall, area rugs, wood floors and tile floors. When you see how much (mostly cat hair) it picks up..well it is just amazing!

Wonder if it can pick up bite sized pieces of grilled cheese sandwhich.....which I JUST discovered under my couch!!! I am pretty sure that we have not had grilled cheese for DAYS now. LOL....maybe there IS something to the 'eat dinner only at the table' thing.

OK. I am prolly going to make the Dyson my next purchase. I will give you my thoughts on it (like you care, eh?).

I have the bare floor attachment which does great for hardwood, tile and vinyl and I also have the low-reach tool which goes under most furniture and does well but I have to admit I am disappointed with the regular vacuum part of the Dyson on my area rugs. It doesn't clean area rugs as well as it does wall to wall carpet and it sometimes sucks too hard and sucks up the rug, especially smaller rugs or the corner of larger rugs. I usually go back over the rugs with the bare floor attachment with bristles to make sure I get up all the cat hair. I don't get too upset with that though, compared to my old Eureka it still does many times better. Plus the animal attachment does great on my furniture.
