Reading the news of the new Dyson-designed room temperature air bathroom hand dryer, I can't help but be reminded of our Dyson vacuum cleaner.
It's got nice suction, yes, but the agistator bristes have to be cleaned off after every time you use it. All it takes is a simple run through 1,00 square feet, and the bristles are rendered useless.
Without agitator bristles going, the suction isn't enough to pull dirt off of the carpet.
Cleaning off the bristles can be a royal pain in the ass, especially with the cat hair. And God help me if I accidentally run over something that is moist and foul-smelling with the vacuum.
I remember having to clean off the bristles to the Electrolux vacuums back when I was growing up, sure, but not as often as this Godforsaken Dyson.
Still, it's nice to watch the stuff swirling around the dirt collection chamber,

What use is a vacuum cleaner if you have to clean off the cat hair afterwards? Sheesh!
By the way, how do the kitties like the Dyson? Is it loud? Do they like watching the dirt swirl around in the collection chamber?

My wife got out the vacuum cleaner (Hoover bagless) to clean up a spilled ashtray. When the cat saw the vacuum, he hissed at it and ran away. It wasn't even on or plugged in or anything. He has an extreme hatred of it and we don't chase him around with it or anything.
