Our vacuum went out with a bang this morning. Literally. I was vacuuming along, and without any kind of warning, the vacuum motor blew. It scared the shit out of me. I didn't see it, but an eye witness reports there were sparks and flames shooting out the front. It was a pretty spectacular death.

Since we have 3 cats and 2 dogs, all of whom shed like it's their purpose in life, we bit the bullet and dropped a wad of cash on a nice vacuum cleaner that might actually pick up hair. We bought a Dyson DC28 Animal. It was ridiculously expensive. But after using it this evening, I believe it was worth every penny. Man does that thing suck. In a good way. And the design is super slick. I'm telling you, I think that thing sucked up dirt from the previous home owners.

It about killed me to spend so much money on that thing. But man does it does a fantastic job.
FYI- They are a fair bit less expensive if you don't need that one for pet hair.

we bought the Dyson Animal a couple of years back as a mutual anniversary present. We're incurably romantic that way. But you're right; I'm pretty sure that thing is pulling dirt up from under the house.
