Vacuum Blues 😀

[rubyred777]

Hey everyone

Quiet week on here. Gotta say the visit from Coughs roommates ( those handsome aliens ) spiced things up a bit!

I'm wondering what vacuum you guys use.

I'm looking for something light enough to take upstairs. Any recommendations?

I appreciate it. Hope all is well with everyone. ( Thinking of you Fred ) 😊

Rubyxx 😊 😊

Hi

Dyson cordless not cheap but the best.

dyson.co.uk/vacuum-cleaners...

Interested in USA pricing?

[rubyred777 in reply to stone-UK]

Yes don't understand when you guys give prices! Is that vacuum light?

😊😊

[stone-UK in reply to rubyred777]

Hi very light.

[grandadbrian in reply to stone-UK]

I would agree Stone. The best investment we have made recently. We got the DC59 model because our coilie seems to cast a lot.

Makes the hoovering much easier.

We bought a Beldray 2 in 1 vacuum stick from BM for £19.99. Does the job.

[Puffthemagicdragon]

One extreme to the other !!

[rubyred777 in reply to Puffthemagicdragon]

What do you mean?

[peege in reply to rubyred777]

Hi, I think Puff means price wise Ruby because the Dysons are quite expensive.

I have the smallest Dyson City. Very light and extraordinarily efficient. I bought it because I have a lot of stairs. According to the Dyson service engineer it is by far the best one so I'm even more pleased that I bought it. Worth every penny. X

[Puffthemagicdragon in reply to peege]

Yes true. The price range is massive !

Cheeeeky! I have heard GTec do a great lightweight one where you plug in to get the charge so you have no cord. I haven't got one myself but others have said how good they are. They are quite expensive though at around £200. x

[rubyred777 in reply to Hidden]

Thanks cough. Thats pretty expensive for me . What does cheeky mean? Trying to learn your slang. Got some of your words down. Teach me Cough.

I believe in money your 200 would be 298 for me. Do you understand it?

Rubyxx 😊 😊

[Hidden in reply to rubyred777]

Impertinently bold; impudent and saucy. That is how I meant it. It is not a bad thing ie someone taking the mickey in a nice way.

$298 equals around £200. Yep that sounds about right. It might be cheaper in the States though as most things are. x

[rubyred777 in reply to Hidden]

Got me again! Taking the mickey? Lol..... I'm so american!

😀😀

[Hidden in reply to rubyred777]

Ha ha ha cheeky isn't slang but taking the mickey is. It's when you wind someone up usually in a nice way. Taking the p...s out of them. The other usage is when someone expects too much of you or is putting on you. Example if someone asks you to go the shop for them then wants you to pay for it. You would say they are taking the mickey.

I don't charge much for English lessons x

[rubyred777 in reply to Hidden]

New lesson for me.what is

jejeune?

😆😆

[Hidden in reply to rubyred777]

French? x

[warwickstag in reply to rubyred777]

Juvenile or Puerile in French.

[gallmoe in reply to rubyred777]

Have your though bout buying one on mail orders some complies would be only to happy to send you one you would have to check out the postage cost with them you might be lucky to get free postage check it out with a few companies first. Also you could do a lay-by on the cleaner. Good luck.

I like my Henry's I have two, one upstairs and one downstairs, they have a great suction, huff x

[rubyred777 in reply to hufferpuffer]

Are they expensive?

😊☺

[hufferpuffer in reply to rubyred777]

Not very Ruby, about $90 I think 😀 huff xxx

[rubyred777 in reply to hufferpuffer]

Thanks sounds good to me

☺☺

[Hidden in reply to hufferpuffer]

Lucky you huff xx

[Hidden in reply to hufferpuffer]

They are good but not exactly lightweight. Did you know they have given Henry a mate called Hattie? x

[megannell in reply to hufferpuffer]

"Awe! huff...i too have a "Henry".... Infact i only got it last week i had always used a dyson. but someone i know recommended a Henry... its awesome. and yes.....WOW! The suction is great.....having my two dogs and hairs dropping from them... the Henry deals with it amazingly......i paid £98 for mine....xMegan.

[Jolyn]

Mine's a heavyweight Dyson, but I don't have an upstairs and I drag it around on it's little wheels. xxx

[casper99]

I've got a Henry, hufferpuffer and I haven't got the dtrength to push it on carpets. The suction is too powerful. would love a new, light one but, can't afford one yet. x

[Puffthemagicdragon in reply to casper99]

Our main one is a Henry. I've had it for years and never had a problem with it. Very powerful as well.

[rubyred777]

Hi Casper

Maybe we'll get good recommendation on here from someone for cheap, light and works well. We'll see.

😊😊

[Hidden in reply to rubyred777]

Have a look on ISME.. they do cordless light weight vacuum cleaner and you can pay in installments x x x

[rubyred777 in reply to Hidden]

Thanks Mandy

Do you have one? I will ck. It out.😊😊

[Hidden in reply to rubyred777]

No but im getting one its a nightmare doing the vacuuming i get my oxygen pipe and the vacuum lead tangled all the time plus the weight of my vacuum is a problem i can only do the rug and need a lay down....

One of the dyson models are on sale but the one i want is nearly £350 and im breaking out in a sweat at the thought of spending that much on a vacuum cleaner ...ive bought a car in the past for that much x x

[peege]

BTW. Aren't we going to lose our choice of vacuum cleaner power soon? That is in the UK. It's already happened in France when everyone was rushing to buy powerful vacuum cleaners before the deadline last year.

EU rules on saving energy! Daft I say, it will just take twice as long to do the job.

[Hidden in reply to peege]

Well thats news to me and stupid...as you said it will take twice the time so where is the energy saving.....just another con to make money x

Bosch Athlet Cordless Vacuum £199.99 - brilliant and light and we do upstairs and downstairs with it.
