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!

      My current vacuum doesn’t pick up things very well. The suction level is terrible.

      I dislike his current vacuum always seems to be breaking, and when I change the bag, dirt goes everywhere. It makes cleaning my place more work then necessary.

      I have a large dog and three cats ..and my vacuum never has enough power to suck up all the hair ,

      The biggest problem with my vacuum is that it does not have enough sucking power.

      We have two toddlers, dog, two cats and an 11 year old eureka vacuum that puts everything through an air filter before dumping it into an impossibly small contain’t that I’ll have to empty 4 times easy if I choose to use it . Sure it’s bagless but what’s the point when dog hair decides not to go through the filter and the thing clogs just and hour every time I turn it on only to find not only the dog hair but half a box of cheerios behind it, it’s such a nuisance that I sweep my carpets before vacuuming… yes I said I sweep my carpets. Vacuuming in my household is a nightmare.

      My current vaccum is just plain poorly made.
      It never fit together quite right! and so it falls apart when I use it.
      Sooooo Frustrating!!! I really need a new one. Love these Dyson models!

      My biggest problem with my vacuum is, even after having it serviced. Everything replaced, It’s still not measuring up.
      I have several pets.. and hair is still everywhere…

      We paid a ton of money a few years back for a Filter Queen… and our Dyson DC34 Handheld is way better.

      My biggest frustration with my current vacuum cleaner is the big mess it makes when I need to change the canister.

      My biggest frustration with my current vaccum. Is that I don’t own one. It seems like they keep breaking faster then I can replace them and with 3 dogs and two cats and a househpld of all boys. It’s the actual worst. I feel like my floors are doomed to stay filthy. But my budget for a vacuum is around the 100 dollar mark. So I keep getting lemon after lemon. That conveniently break just after the Warrenty lapses.

      No words can explain how bad my vacuum cleaner is at the moment. *crossing fingers.

      My current stand up vacuum weighs about 35 lbs, so it is quite heavy to be carrying up and down two flights of stairs. Also, when using the attachment hose, the body often falls over and lands on the back of my leg causing bruising. I’ve come up with a different way of securing it from falling over but it doesn’t always work.
