Have you looked at the new Bosch? Similar price to the dyson but when I had a test drive of them both in the shop, the Bosch won hands down. The Dyson seemed tinny or very plasticy compared to the Bosch. They are not available in all shops but I got mine at Harvey Norman. If you are interested, give me a PM and I'll let you know about the variation in prices.

I had the Grim Reaper appear last night, so I ran to the laundry and got my vacuum out for defence...He'd be Dyson with death!

Any wonder she put on weight, shouldn't she have been vacuuming or something?
That was the point of the ad, right?

we have a dyson thats about 6 years old. It does a good job of the floors but is very clunky to pull around behind you, and the wand is thick and difficult to get into spots like beside of the fridge. The newer models look better, but I'd get a Miele if i could afford it.

Harvey Norman was advertising a bagless vacuum cleaner tonight for 59.00. Might be ideal for someone wanting a lightweight one. Will have a look myself, always wanted a bagless. Have run out of bags on my one which I have had for at least 10 years, only cost about 79.00 back then.

I bought a bagless Vax a couple years ago...anyone want it?
I would never have another bagless if you gave it to me after that one.
That commercial above was a disaster for LG who made it....Dyson are the winners from it.

Wouldn't have a bagless, despite the trouble with bags.
Just got a Sauber with a turbo head and love it to death.
The ad's funny though, but doesn't work, I tried.

I am trying to buy bags for my vacuum cleaner. Its a Panasonic. Tried Retravision in Childers, no luck. Have to wait now till I can get into a big city. Makes Bagless more favourable.

with bagless your always cleaning the filters. Luckily when I had one my son was shareing the house and he did the vacuuming, I did the lawn mowing.

A little tip if you ever decide to clean out a photo copier with a vacuum cleaner... the toner is fine enough to go through the bag and filter and enter the motor. Being a mixture of carbon and plastic powder with whatever else, it makes a lot of smoke and will catch fire... I had to throw the cleaner out into the yard before it caught my workshop on fire. Pretty funny looking back on it though.
We have been looking at a new vacuum cleaner for a while.
After viewing this video of a Dyson commercial, it wins hands down.
