Why I love my Dyson

[ksmith]

I vacuum twice a week. House is 1100 sq ft or so. No carpet--all hardwood/one-piece flooring, with area rugs.

The opening to the trash can is about 11"x14". I had to empty the canister twice.

Is this better than an Oreck? (A very good and expensive sweeper.)

I am envious of your suckage. Power, and a HEPA filter, are everything.

I don't know how it compares to an Oreck--I don't know anyone who owns an oreck. I've seen the commercials, and received the mailings, but never looked into it.

One thing I really like about the Dyson is the light saber hose attachment that fits inside/forms the handle, When you need a hose with smaller attachment, it's all right there (3 small attachments clip to the body of the vac).

What I need is a battery-run handheld that I can carry around for small sweeping jobs. Had a Dirt Devil that turned out to be unwieldy.

Dyson does make a small one to hand carry, for what it's worth. Under $200, but bound to work better than the Dust Buster I got.

Wow. Steep for a small unit. But worth checking out, thanks --
