That's the one. Did you also get sold by a door-to-door sales pitch?
That's the one. They only sell them door to door. The kirby and the rainbow. We did not pay thousands I assure you.
We got a canister vacuum cleaner with 2 dozen attachments, a carpet shampooer, and the power sweeper thing for hardwood. It has a lifetime warranty and we got it for just under 1k and they bought our old Shark from us.
It doesn't bother me because a Dyson + carpet shampooer would be near the same price and wouldn't last as long.
It blows our $200 shark out of the water, no comparison.

At 24 a VACUUM cleaner brand was the least of my concerns... You should have a broad cleaning your crib dude, and it won't matter what brand you buy!

im telling you....get the Eureka SuctionSeal w/ pet attachment. hardwood, tile, carpet...whatever.
you can get it at Lowes. just as good if not better than a $400 Dyson.

My current Dyson is about 12 years old and still going strong for the most part, but a small hole in the detachable sucker tube causes that part of the vacuum to no longer work well. I'll be getting a new one soon.
I'd definitely recommend a Dyson, even if it's a refurb. You can get a refurb Dyson DC40 for like $200.

Lux (formerly Electrolux) vacuums are sold door to door. A rep will visit you. They are mostly canister style vacs and are some of the best made. They are not inexpensive at $1500, but they will last 30 years.
They also don't change models/colors every year either. I believe the current model (2014) is the same one sold in 2007--why change it if it works (and they do).
My father still has a working Electrolux from the early '60's!
And, FWIW...Dyson and Miele are not in the same league. German engineering takes over with the Miele.

This is the exact one i have and my wife was so amazed it only cost $150. We have 3 pets and it sucks all the hair up. I am so glad I got this one instead of the dyson

Fully agree. Ranked as good or better than the Dyson at half the price. I recently bought one and am amazed at the performance and accessories that came with it. Great value for the performance and accessories that are included.
FYI - I got this one.

Kirby vacuums are way over priced but my parents have one and I have dislocated my balls once and used it. Was very impressed

I have all wood floors, and area rugs.
I bought a Bissell bagless for fifty, sixty bucks at Target five years back, still sucking like Rebeloke.

No one who has spent more than $400 on a vacuum will tell you they made a bad decision.
Same as $100 sunglasses, etc.

I have a Miele and it is great, but the bags are a fortune! About $5/bag.

I'd rather spend $400 on a pair of sunglasses than $200 on a vacuum.
My Hispanic housekeeper doesn't give a shite about the motor. She's got her own if mine dies.
