A lot of people say they like the Dyson because it picks up what their other vacuum didn't, but IME, EVERY vacuum does that. I have to vacuum at least 3 times (I wait until the chamber stops picking anything up) before I shampoo the carpet.
Oh, I go through carpet shampooers about once every 2 years  |
I have two kids and two cats .. I've gone through two in the past 5 years so we are on almost the same track. I don't recall how much i paid for the last two Vacuums but they were higher end Oreck so I'm guessing about $200 - $250 .. they make a good vacuum but i wanted to give the Dyson a try and so far I like it better. If it holds up for a Few years then it was worth it. The attachments are great. the Oreck doesn't really have attachments
