kickass hoover

[madmomma]

I'm in the market for a new hoover and I want one that will rock my world. I'm so fed up with crap hoovers. I don't care what it costs - I just want the dog's bs of the hoover world and I don't know what that is. Do any of you absolutely love your hoover? If so please tell me what it is.

Very true ali - I thought that as well. But then you can't help but admire a brand name that has been absorbed into the collective psyche to such an extent that it has become the thing, rather than just a 'make'. Many people refer to vacuum cleaners as Hoovers.

Given that most brands would probably give their eye teeth to have that level of association with a product, it's actually quite a pity that Hoovers aren't really much cop (imho) compared to the competition. No-one has come on to suggest buying one I notice

I had one years ago and it was absolute rubbish. I got so infuriated with it one day that I rammed it in the wheely bin. Possible pmt that day perhaps.

Miele cat and dog is the dogs.

However, I saw on the QVC channel that there is a new Miele out, similar to the cat and dog but with automatic height adjustment and headlights

Love my SEBO - still going well after 13 years!!

I've decided I want an upright I think it's gonna have to be a miele

AA swoon, how can I make my Miele wear out? I sold the idea to DH that the Miele wouldn't wear out for years wouldn't to justify having one upstairs and one downstairs!

Alibubbles, it will never wear out I'm afraid. Not for a hundred, hundred years.

Am thinking of customising mine, I wonder if you can buy after-market headlights?

Sorry to disappoint you, but my miele is pants.

It's less than 3 years old and the motor has gone. £85 for miele to repair it. It cost me £320 and I thought it would last forever. It was so bloody expensive I couldn't afford the £30 for the extended 10 year warranty. If only I could turn back the clock .

The bloke in the repair shop recommended a sebo.

I don't know what to do now. Get the bloody thing repaired or fork out for a sebo, or buy the one in lidl for £40?

Sorry to hijack your thread

SEBO!

Mmmm, my Sebo X4 is 16 years old, well I could tell DH it is, hed never know , but then an after kit sounds good!

That's a shame soaccident I have got the ten year warranty thankfully
