There are few things as an adult more thrilling than getting cleaning equipment!
I jest, but I am really, REALLY happy with my new vacuum.
First of all though, apologies for not having a Friday post this last week. I wrote it. I scheduled it. I scheduled it for the 15th instead of the 8th… so whoops!
On subject, our house is a continuous sea of dog fur. Tundra is a malamute mix, and while they say he only blows his coat twice a year but… it seems like he’s always shedding.
And it gets ahead of us pretty quickly.
We have a standard vacuum cleaner, a curb find from my mother-in-law which works just fine on rugs, but isn’t good on wood floor and is too heavy for me to lift easily.
So, I looked at approximately six MILLION reviews, but it finally boiled down to this: what do I want it to do, how much am I willing to spend, and how upset will I be if it’s terrible.
It doesn’t have to be the best. It doesn’t have to be perfect.
It just has to be good enough.
I decided on this one:
You can find it here on Amazon.
A look at the canister:
It has no bag, and we empty the canister straight into the garbage.
There are a variety of doodads that you can use:
The silver part extends quite a bit too.
Complaints? It overheats quickly, but that just means I do half the house, take a break, and then do the other half of the house.
You have to empty it frequently because dog fur is fluffy and a pain, but it works perfectly well for what I need.
What is your favorite adulting purchase? How do you decide on what to purchase? Inquiring minds want to know!
