I kill hoovers regularly too so am interested in replies - especially magic ones that
1. Dont get clogged up with very long hair
2. Work all by themselves!!

I have a dyson - the lightweight upright one. It's fab! :D

Our first dyson lasted 10 years we just had to replace the filters , when it died last year i was in tight mode and chose a vax instead because it was a lot cheaper and also in the sale .
It was the worst thing ever and only lasted a year i hated it , we now have a dyson multifloor dc33 and never realised how good my dyson was until i didn't have it , well worth the money.

I have a Henry and love it. We have an old terraced house (the ones that go back and back longways :laughing: ) I can plug it in, in the kitchen out back and hoover right through the lounge and upstairs bedrooms without unplugging it.

also great suction power.:thumbsup: We bought it when we moved in 9 years ago and still going strong.

Dyson for me! The guarantees are fab and the service we have had from them has been second to none when we had a minor problem. Mine is on its 6th year now:thumbsup:

I want a Dyson, the new one Animal looks pretty good. So I am thinking of purchasing one of them very shortly.
My old hoover has just died so I am using a dustpan an dbrush everwhere:panic: and for someone who likes to hoover every day it's not fun!
ps - don't buy an Electrolux - I have had 2 in the past and they are all rubbish, don't suck well, shoot dust out everywhere, too noisey and break easily!!! grr!

I have a Henry, I also live in one of those terrace houses and I just plug him in, in the hall and can hoover nearly all of 2 flights. I bought a second Henry to keep upstairs but my son 'borrowed' it about 10 years ago and I'm still waiting for him to bring it back :joker:

We do joke about Henry being shut in the cupboard and it nearly backfired because one of the parents almost called Ofsted when her son told her :ohdear:

If I didn't have Henry I think I would buy the new Dyson Light thats advertised at the moment....

We broke 2 hoovers in 2 days a couple of weeks ago :angry: . First was my beloved Henry, the next day we used the Electrolux and that broke too :eek: . Currently using a big industrial thing my OH has borrowed from work. Need to buy a new one but can't afford a Dyson, might get another Henry? I also so need to buy a carpet shamppooer (sp?)

I must admit I do like the look of the dysons but they are so expensive and my partner wont let me have one cause everytime he goes to the dump there are lots of , we had a henry years ago and he was great, I am tempted to get another but I know I would forget to empty the bag which is what eventyaly killed our last one.

I have a Roomba robot vacuum cleaner, absolutely brill, it vacuumed my bedroom this morning while I was having breakfast. I also have a cheaper end electrolux which to be fair we haven't had any trouble with.

I love my Henry too. Very efficient, works brilliantly. Only about £99.00 too. I've had 2 dysons and despite their promise they did lose suction power after a while. Lots of shops, hotels and other businesses useHenrys, in my books that says a lot for them in terms of durability, efficiency and longevity. My have a toy one which the LOs love to use especially if I get "Big Henry" out to clear up their mess.

I used to have a dyson which I thought was fab but when I needed to buy a new hoover I got the 'Henry extra'. It's great and I would replace it with the same if it ever went wrong. It's so light and easy to use especially under furniture, table and chairs etc.

I reluctantly bought a dyson last year as thought they were just over priced , but I'm now sold on dyson it's fab , I have the top of the range cylinder version the Motörhead and it's totally fab I've recently bought a hand held to match I'd never go back to another make again
