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

      I hate that it is huge and heavy and has all these attachments that are big and clunky. It'[s a real workout just to haul it up the three flights of stairs!

      my biggest annoyance with my current vacuum is that I feel like im constantly having to change the bag and I never seem to have any on hand.

      Smelly old vacuum always needs bags and is starting to die I think.

      It’s not one thing that drives me crazy about our current vacuum – it’s a combination of things! The on-off switch is broken and some of the attachments don’t attach any more….

      It’s an upright with a removable hose attached to the powerhead for accesories that won’t stay put.I can’t tell you how many times I’m about finished and look down to see the hose slipped out at some point:(. Thanks!

      I find my current vacuum does not have a very strong suction.

      My vacuum stinks every time I run it. It doesn’t pick dirt up as well as it used to and it’s getting harder and harder to find bags and filters for it.

      My Biggest frustration with my current vacuum is it JUMPS over the carpet. It won’t slide, it just jumps over it. It’s almost a work our trying to vacuum the carpet in the family room. We have a 70 pound puppy that drags in a LOT of dirt so I vacuum every day. It’s very frustrating. This Dyson vacuum would be WONDERFUL And It’s PURPLE !!!! I Love It !! Thank you 🙂

      My biggest frustration is the my central vac has almost no suction and we (And the guys who installed it for us) can’t figure out why!

      My vacuum has no suction power and its large, clunky design makes it hard for me to reach small corners.

    13. Mtty says

      June 1, 2017 at 10:07 pm

      The suction….it doesn’t, but I guess that means it does?

      My biggest frustration with my current vacuum is that it has produces a burning smell, like burned rubber, smells like a ginger molasses cookie sometimes too 🙁

      My biggest frustration with my current vacuum is that it is very heavy and misses a lot of dirt.
