Minxz

I have a Dyson All Floors.. and it's been rubbish ever since it was used ( not by me!) to vaccum brick dust
I've bought new parts, washed filters, and it's still rubbish.. but i cannot affors a new one.
Can anyone recomend a decent, bagless hoover please?

I hated my Dyson, bloody useless and heavy! I've now got a "Henry", which I've had for five years, and he's fantastic! Loads of suck and cleans up anywhere, plus he's got a smile on his face all the time!
Wouldn't have anything else now.

Def. a Henry, 2 cats , 1 dog, 2 kids and no loss of suction;)

I use bags in it though but they last for ages as they are huge, they cost about a fiver for 10.

Brick dust is terrible stuff to hoover up. It does your machine no good at all.

Lol! We used to have a Henry, which was rubbish! I'd never use anything other than a Dyson now!!! Alternate universes?

I bought a Miele Cat and Dog a couple of years ago and now would not use anything else, the suction power is amazing.

I got rid of my heavy useless dyson too & bought a Vax turboforce after seeing a recommendation on this site. I've been more than happy with it & at least I can manage to lift this one. It copes fine with the cat hair, especially when using the turbo brush that was supplied with the tools.

Yep I love my Miele too! Its great for stairs and cars too as its soo small.

I also love the Henry - You always see tradesmen and cleaners with a Henry!
