This weekend has been very busy (when aren't mine busy is probably a better point to make). A wedding on Friday, the weekend of graduations and parties and all kinds of other fun events that kept me out of the house.
Which was good because my current vacuum has been slowly dying. It sucks, and not in the good way for someone living with pets. Lately vacuuming has consisted of me running the vacuum over a clump of fur on the carpet. Again. And one more time. Finally I would reach down and just pick it up. Not very effective.
So after extensive research and a trip looming (I always clean my house before I travel. It's always nice to come home to a clean house) I finally joined the cult of Dyson. I went with the Dyson D25 Animal. I did balk a bit at the price tag, but given I need a new vacuum every 2 years it seemed worth it.
When I finally had a few minutes at home, I unpacked and assembled it. It was very easy and well designed. I do appreciate well designed packaging and products. I was excited to try it out but ran into an odd problem. It was so pretty and had new vacuum smell that I did not want to get it dirty! I was finally able to overcome that and let me tell you, what a difference. It's so maneuverable and the fur it sucked up was amazing. And the best benefit for the cats, other than the fun, big box it came in, was that it's not as loud and my previous vacuum. So no panicked felines running away. Now I have a clean house and relaxed cats. What more could I ask for in a weekend really.
