Default Recommendations for Vacuum Cleaner

I have to invest in a new vacuum cleaner and would appreciate input from people on the forum.

I like my Dyson stick. It hangs on the wall and charges itself. I could do my whole designer on one charge. And no cord to plug and unplug to move. And it really sucks! I also have a Dyson big model with a cord. They both do a great job, but the stick does hard surface and soft. The big one doesn't get into the corners as well because, um, it's bigger. If I had to give one up, it would be the big one. But then, I have a Golden Retriever Hair Manufacturer who causes me to have to vacuum every day. So having the ease of the stick is great.

They're not cheap, but we've had cheaper, and they don't work as well or last as long. My stick will be 8 soon. The bigger one is 10.

Yes, but you'll only pay it once. After the second Shark (or is is Sharp) died I bit the bullet.

I have a Miele and an ECOVACS Deebot N79S robot vac. It is not as fancy as the IRobot one, but costs a lot less. It takes off and wanders around the house for about 2 hours. You empty the canister after each use. Works great on keeping pet hair at bay.

Most definitely, we also have a Dyson Hot. It must be about 8 years old and it has also served us well. It takes the chill off a room quickly. It is just quality stuff that you only have to buy once.

Mrs. CFrance, build me a small Retriever out of all that hair. A Dog Clone?

We have a dirt devil and it really sucks. Which for a vacuum is good but not for many other types of products..

I have this one Amazon.com - Oreck Upright Vacuum Cleaner LW100 Magnesium SP with 3 HEPA Bags | Carpets, Tile and Hardwood Flooring | Dirt, Debris, Pet Hair | Lightweight, High-Suction Clean -

Very light and so easy to push on carpet. Notice how large the wheels are. Making it easy to push. Also, its made out of magnesium making it strong and lighter than other metals.
My daughter had a Dyson and it is VERY heavy.
