Skint. Hoover has packed in.

[ThereGoesTheAlarm]

Suggestions for good budget hoovers welcome! I’m rather desperate here.

When you say ‘budget’, how much have you got to spend? Does it need to last or just see you through a few months?

Look for second hand reconditioned ones. My local charity project does stuff like that.

Just a few months would do tbh. I’d say less than £100 but cheaper the better

If you’re very skint I wouldn’t worry about replacing it right now, save your pennies for incase the washing machine or oven packs in! A brush will do the floors.

Can you sweep instead of get a cheap hoover? My MIL rarely hoovers. We hoover 2 or 3 times a day

We aren’t on the bones of our arse but it’s pretty tightt

Can you try something like freecycle or local facebook selling sites for a cheap one to do for now?

Look at your local Facebook selling pages. Always lots on there, people are upgrading to cordless before their old ones break I think (we replaced a perfectly good Henry with a dyson a few years ago and sold it on FB for about £50) so here seem to be plenty of good ones about

That’s a good idea! I’ll have a look

I have two toddlers. The place is a riot. A brush isn’t going to cut it

Gumtree is also a good shout x

Where are you? Someone on here might be getting rid of one?

Try ebay for refurbished ones.

We just bought a practically brand new cordless Vax for £65 including 1 years warranty.

As someone said freecycle, gumtree freebies, trash nothing, look on Facebook for local freebie groups. The one around us is great.

Argos. Cheap Hoover's start from £30. We got one that lasted us until we could get a decent one.

weve just bought a vax air stretch pet max from argos £99 and im well impressed, always been a dyson fan but the last one was flimsy hasnt lasted very long and wont go dyson again

Thank you everyone. I ordered a refurbished vax on eBay for £37.99. Good reviews and should be here for the weekend so we shall see! I like vax but I’ve never been impressed with Dyson, ours broke constantly. I want a shark but can’t afford it yet.
