Mumsnet Talk

Hmm. Very tempting, Helen. The only, and rather massive flaw, in this is that I would have to actually do the vacuuming.

So on that basis, I'm out.

signed up, anything that can help with my permanently furry house is a winner for me.

I don't have stairs so don't think I'm eligible. Shame really, my hoover's nearly completely dead!

Done

<crosses fingers>

done.

God, yes please! Have an ancient (2nd hand) vaccuum cleaner and would love a new one.

I've signed up, my dog has seen off menny menny hoovers in his time (well, his hair has) - we'd give it a jolly good workout!

I've signed up. After much research by me earlier this year/last year, we bought a Miele. DH - who does the bulk of the vacuuming - loathes it and says it's rubbish. I don't want to have to Leave The Bastard for dissing Miele so hopefully he can have a new one to try out.

No! The Miele is on my list of things to buy with my lottery win this weekend! Really shit?

Actually Ljups, that was a shameless stealth boast and it ALMOST got past me.

You can afford a Miele
Your DH does most of the hoovering

Boasty Boasterson.

Signed up - it has to be an improvement on the crappy Dyson I curse on a fortnightly daily basis!

Sjue.

He also cooks.

But thankfully doesn't look like Steven Seagal.

Well, my husband was responsible for the awkward lump of a miele which I for one find a right faff and not easy to manoeuvre (sp??).

He is blinded by gadgetry and product snobbery however and practical every day use didn't factor in the purchasing process.

Done. I hope its lightweight manoeuvrable design means the DCs will use it more often than they use the ancient Dyson, I might have to pay them more than 10p a room too!

Oh my flipping G, I reeeaaaaallly need to get picked for this one!

I flipping love hoovering.

Ok, that's a lie, but I do do it a bloody lot.

I have a dog, 2 cats, a crawling baby and a crappy Dyson that won't work on my crappy laminate floor so I have to take the nozzle out and do it with the weird brush attachment thingy. (which I incidentally use for every cleaning job including the front door step)

I have to hoover every hour or so at the moment because the bloody animals won't stop bloody moulting every-fucking-where

See my sad face , please pick me .

I've signed up. Anything has to be better than the 'Turbo' brush on my Vax.
I could sue them for false advertising on that alone!!

My hair or the Doodle's fur and it's blocked.

i've signed DH up for this too

I think 'pet' vacuums must actually be shitter than the bog standard version. I have to brush my carpets with a stiff brush first and regularly have at the brush head with scissors. DD and I both have long hair, which adds to the woe.

MNHQ, have I mentioned how good I would be at this test? Cos I would be. I'd have a mini obstacle course for that vacuum, it'd be like Vacuum Boot Camp.

I've signed up but if I do get it this will mean my husband might actually make me do some hoovering. It can't possibly be worse than the second hand dyson which does bugger all.

I hate hoovering. I love new gadgets though.

Signed up! Another sufferer of DH-will-choose-the-technology Dyson. He reckoned it was the best on the market when he we bought it.
He has to do the lugging about now, as it is like moving a small, but dense darlek around the house. A darlek that isn't much interested in cleaning, either.

I'd love to test drive a Globe - it sounds ideal for us. I did boggle a bit at one of the pictures on the website. It reminded me somewhat of a rampant rabbit . Was that just me?

Signed up

signed up for this. have been through 2 dysons, a samsung and NOTHING keeps the bloody carpets clean. would be impressed if it works!

Ooo pls pick me. Similar to MyDog I've got two cats, a dog, a crawling child and a 3 yo. And a DH who thinks that a fairy hoovers or rather that because we have a cleaner once a week we never need to hoover in between and I've got really crap weak hands so need something light and maneouvreable

Me! Me! Me!
