Best vaccuum cleaner to buy? Advice needed, please.
We have a dirt devil but it's on it's last leg after only 1 year. It just doesn't pick much up. We have a big rug on our hardwood floors & then bedroom carpeting so we need one that will vacuum both floors. I would love to hear your recommendations. Thanks!
Me: 42, DH: 43.
We are so grateful to have a 2yr old daughter, conceived naturally after 3 miscarriages & no treatments (our Dr. gave us 1 more month to try on our own before advacing to IVF, & we conceived her naturally in January 2010)!
Trying since April 2011 without sucess....MD said we were both "fine" & that if it wasn't happening, it was a chromosomal issue.
Finally started Follistim 225mcg injections with an Ovidrel trigger November 2012. Bleeding 11 days post Ovidrel on November 25th.
Starting the whole lab/Ultrasound/Follistim cycle again on November 27th...

Like the other posters, I also did a lot of research before buying my current vacuum cleaner. I ended up going with <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Shark-Navigator-Professional-Lift-Away-Cleaner/dp/B005KMDV9A/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1365970651&sr
Dysons are good and shark vacuums are good. If you have only hard floors, you really don't need something quite so powerful and expensive; you don't need a beater brush or agitator on your vacuum. A good wet/dry vac with a floor brush attachment works
