How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Ready To Be #DysonClean ? ~ Giveaway ARV $599

in Lifestyle on 05/15/17

Ugh.  Does this sound familiar?  You’re expecting company in a an hour and the house is a disaster.  What you need to do is a quick “shuffle’.  Tidy the kitchen, wipe up the bathroom counters and give the floors a quick once over.  You run around, grabbing stray magazines and homework off the floor, get those dishes put away, finally get to the vacuum and FAILURE.  Why is the vacuum not SUCKING THIS TIME!  Every time with this vacuum it’s something different!  The bags full, the spinny thing won’t spin, it just won’t suck!  Why can’t I just plug in my vacuum and know it will work.

Enter the Dyson Big Ball Animal 2 into my life.

Every time I plug it in I know it will work!  Dog (or people) hair doesn’t slow it down.

It moves seamlessly from hardwood to rugs, and if the container that holds all that dirt fills up, I just press one button and empty it.  Easy Peasy.

Have you been a victim of vacuum frustration?  I want you to tell me all about it!  Take a moment to leave me a comment telling me your current frustration with your current vacuum and you could WIN your very own Dyson Ball Animal 2!

 

Yes you read that right!  This is your chance to WIN a Dyson Big Ball Animal 2.  ARV $599.99

      My biggest frustration with my vacuum to date is its inability to adequately clean my shag carpet. It just doesn’t have enough power to get between the fibres and really clean the carpet the first time. Instead I usually go over the carpet 2-3 times to get that freshly vacuumed clean look, but who knows if it is even actually clean… A new vacuum would take away my cleaning woes without making me toss my beloved black shag rug <3

      My biggest frustration with my current vacuum is the lack of suction. It doesn’t do a good job of picking up dirt or dog hair.

      I have wall-to-wall carpet and my current vacuum isn’t very good at getting into corners, and the edges where the carpet meets the wall.

      My biggest frustration with my current vacuum is that it is a hand held and my back hurts after awhile.

      My current vacuum has a broken clip and falls apart each time I use it!

      Instead of sucking up all the dirt, my current vacuum spits half of it out at my feet – ugh!

      Two cats and a very shaggy rug render my feeble vacuum cleaner completely useless. I basically need to swat at my rug with a stick on the balcony for 10 minutes before anyone comes over.

      My current vacuum always leaves a lot behind. I spend a lot of time going over the same spot trying to pick everything up. I’d love a Dyson!!

      My biggest problem with my current vacuum is that it doesn’t pick up debris and dirt well at all, I often have to go over and over an area, and I still don’t think it has vacuumed well!

      I wish my vacuum had more suction.

      I do not like my current vacuum which is central vac, too long of a hose to drag around and trip over and terrible suction….thanks for the chance to win!
