Subject: [h-cost] OT vacuums
I can't be the only one with this problem--little threads, all over my
carpet, and a vacuum that just can't handle 'em. My vacuum has enough
suction to pick up a bowling ball, but the little brush thinger that's
supposed to pick up lint and so forth is pretty much useless. I have to use
just the naked hose in order to get threads up, and even in a 2 bedroom
apartment that gets very very tiring.
Has anyone found a vacuum that works really well for the kind of stuff we
costumers do? Something that can pick up all those threads and all that
fabric lint (and all that cat hair) that plagues us?
No cat hair here--but feathers and bird seed can wreak havoc on a vacuum!
(And the Grey goes for distance when he flings...) And I have very long
hair, which gets into everything and wraps nicely around the beater bar of a
traditional vacuum.
I had a Dirt Devil bagless that lasted more than most of the others (three
years, I kill most vacuums in one) but right now I have a Kenmore canister
vac I got from Free Cycle, and I LOVE it.

And I could go for hardwood floors too! I actually rather enjoy vacuuming,
but between the kids and the birds, the carpet just gets stained and dirty
so fast!
