New Hoover Help!

Options
I am just about to move into a new house and have been trying to pick up some "bargins" in the sales. Top of my list is a new hoover - but there are so many to choose from!

I have no idea what good features I should be looking for! It needs to be:

Not too heavy - House has 3 flights of stairs
Long cord
Will work well on Carpet, Wooden and Tiled Floors
Attachements for curtains, mattereses etc would be handy
No Bags
We dont have pets or suffer from alleriges or asthma
£150 - £300

Could someone please point me in right direction or reccomend a suitable one :confused:

Many Thanks

  • Hi, I love Dyson hoovers. I think they are a wee bit heavier than others but I think they do the job so well. It would do everything you have mentioned but I guess the cord would be standard.
    When I hoover I'm amazed what the hoover has picked up. It shows through the plastic glass, it's like hoovering a beach! I have no pets. The suction is fantastic.
    With regard to the weight of it, you could try in a shop.
  • OH - a domestic service engineer, says buy a Dyson - DC14 is best.He says avoid Hoover. DC14 is apparently 'The best vaccum on the market atm, by quite a long way'. Check round for prices, which vary wildly. DON'T buy the animal one, which isn't worth the extra.

  • Thanks for the tips. I will look into them. My mum had a Dyson but it kept on breaking, but she still loved it and bought another one! Cheers for the help :beer:
