I changed the bag in my vacuum cleaner at the end of a hoovering session. When I came to use it last weekend I could hardly get any suck out of it at all. I can't work out why, though my mother suggests the filter, which I can't get at
Although I'm not keen on housework, especially hoovering which makes my back ache, I have the first Transition Leytonstone recycled craft meeting on 13 March and feel I ought to get rid of some of the dust and cat fluff first!
So after work today down to John Lewis looking at vacuum cleaners. Stood there for ages trying to decide between a John Lewis one and a Miele one. The John Lewis one was nearly half the price, slightly lighter, bigger capacity. The Miele one was Which Best Buy and used less energy. I went with the Miele one, but don't know I made the right decision.
Fourteen years ago I got a washing machine and choose one that was better energy rated but more expensive, but it only lasted 4 years.... Its less green replacement has already lasted 10. Time will tell with the vacuum cleaner.
I have a Miele Cat/Dog one as I buy pets who seem to moult a whle new anim every couple of dys!!! I have had it about 5 years and although its battered and bruised she is still going strong and it gets used a lot!!! I have found website that does the replacement bags v cheap compared to others when you need them!!! nd they are cheaper the more you buy so bulk buy!!
ReplyDeleteGood choice....wel I think so anyway!!

Yes, I would be interested in a source of bags.
ReplyDeleteMy cats are the first I have had who go into the bathroom when I'm not there. They lap at the closed taps and are fascinated by drips from the shower head, and sit for ages by the taps of the basin. My basin and bath are therefore smeared with cat hairs! (When they have been sitting in a wet bath waiting for drips after I have had a bath or shower, they then come for a cuddle, and their tails and bottom fluff are all wet!!!)
You can't be houseproud and have pets, except perhaps a tank of fish!
