Not to let DH use my new hoover on food

[chickenwire]

Got a new and very expensive cordless dyson. DH said, oh it works really well on toddler food after meals.

AIBU to make him use the old hoover if he wants to clean up food with it? You can't hoover food can you??

AIBU to love my new hoover so much as well

i use my dyson hand held for picking up food, does the job

Even a bagged HOOVER will start to stink because you can't totally clean out all the hoses / pipes.

Hoover is a proprietary eponym now apparantly

My Dyson was used to hoover up stray bits of toddler food, and it absolutely mings now. I've scrubbed it and washed the filters out, but when I turn it on it blasts warm, vomit smelling air out of the side [boak].

Yadnbu. I wouldn't vaccuum up food anyway. Well maybe dry crumbs but nothing else - It'd go manky and smelly. When I got my new sebo I was very protective of it. I still am. Dh isn't allowed to take it outside to vacuum the car. We've got a crappy old one for that. And I was most upset at Christmas when ds managed to vacuum a string of 100 Christams lights off the tree with it by accidentally going over the wire.

'Though I would draw the line at vacuuming up vomit' Me too. I had to sacrifice my dustpan and brush for that little delight at the weekend. I just threw the whole thing away afterwards.
