New gadget
iRock (148 points) | Sun, 2004-11-07 05:21First off I have to say I have seen this product advertised and dismissed them as hype. Then I noticed our vacuum we got when our house was new 11 years ago, sucked at sucking. =::Does that means it sucks or doesn't suck?::= Anyhoo a friend at work mentioned she had purchased a Dyson at Sears. I asked her what that was. She said the yellow ones. She went on to explain that it never decreased in suction power and you don't need to use bags. I went home and looked them up on epinions. They were quite highly rated and I went to the Dyson web site to learn more.
I finally decided to purchase the cheapest model on sale at Sears. I got it home but did not have time to use it much for a week. Last weekend I finally used it. It is great. Our carpets looked like they had been resurrected. It is like having a new toy. And you just click a release latch which lets the canister out easy. Pull the trigger and the dust falls right out. We give it a 4 thumbs up because Rick was impressed by it too.
And a bonus game on their site. It did not work in Safari but I was able to download it. I had to put it on Rick's machine and run it with Classic OS9. It was quite fun but I cannot get past the 11th level. If anyone tries it and gets past that level show me the secret. It uses telescoping tubes and a steel ball. Kind of like putt putt golf. It's surprisingly fun until you get stuck.

I should have been more clear. The vacuum is real.
