Wasn't there an allergy trial, with promises of an animal one in the not too distant future.

Did I miss it?

any news?

Have to say the sales people at John Lewis are quite honest. We have 2 Dysons and 2 dogs, (and 2 kids come to think of it ) Neither were picking up very well, after 9 years, and thought I'd get a Miele cat and dog because of the dog hairs that build up in the head part. The sales guy at John Lewis said that it didn't matter what vacuum I bought, it would always be a problem, but had an idea that I could get a replacement head from Dyson which seems to work! £30.00 vs £300. No brainer

Oh me too. DH brushed our dog today outside and so even the grass is covered in a film of dog hair . Our current Dyson is over 8 years old and sadly fading under the pressure.......

Glad to hear it, ilovemydogandmrobama!

We actually haven't heard back from Dyson yet about this but your post has reminded us to drop them a line. Thank you

Hi

We've got some new bits and bobs on the horizon...so I will have a think about how to involve MNers.

I wasn't planning a specific animal sesh, but if enough people are interested in trialling the machines, I could think about something.

I will be in touch!

Bo, the Obama's family dog, a Portugese Water dog, looks fairly hypoallergenic and wouldn't dare shed a hair or would have Michelle Obama to contend with

Do you think it picks up Presidential hairs mrobama?

In answer to your question, um, I don't know but I'll find someone at the Towers who does.[efficient]
