Dyson ball question
Hi! Looking for a new vacuum. My view on it is "Go big or go home". lol. I don't like the idea of buying a new vacuum every year or so.
I see you girls had some great things to say about the Animal Ball one. How does it do on tile or hardwood floors? We have a mix of carpet, tile and hardwood in our house.
ETA: Oooh i didn't realize that they were $550. I might look into the compact ball version. it's still pricey, though.
Re: Dyson ball question
So far, so good on our tile as well. There's a button to turn off the brush so that it just sucks stuff up, which is handy for grout lines.
Ditto PP about sales. We got ours 20% off from Sears. I believe you can use Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons on them as well, which are also 20% off. The part that sold me was the 5 year warranty, so the price pays off if you're not buying a new one every year! I've heard of people having great success with refurbished as well, which tend to be half the price.

Wow! That's awesome!! Great buy!
great buy! We've had ours for 6 years (in May) and it still works like the day we got it. Well worth the investment.
Our Dyson crapped out after five years. We were told that it would be $140 to fix it.
We decided to get an Oreck to replace it.
I agree that by spending more you can get a better vacuum, but don't think you won't have to replace it.
