Calling Zoe

[CJ2008]

Hi Zoe how are you

Wondering if you ever chose a new vacuum, and how you like it...I need to get better at vacuuming the floors and I'm hoping an awesome new vacuum will motivate me

So just wondering if you got one yet...I was watching your thread and then saw a few of the vacuums mentioned on sale but figured I'd see what you ended up doing.

Thanks

Hi CJ! I hadn't seen your last post in my vacuum thread until now. I got a new job and have been working non-stop, so I haven't been able to do more research yet. It's on my list of things to do though.

We did go shopping at BB&B yesterday and I found a few vacuums I liked. I liked the Shark Navigator Freestyle but I'm not sure how well it would really work because it's so light. We have 2 cats and a lot of pet hair to deal with, so although I want something lightweight, that one seemed a bit too lightweight. I also like the Shark Rotator 3 in 1 Lift Away, but that's more pricey.

We're at a bit of a standstill right now. My husband isn't up for spending the money on something new at the moment, so he ordered a few new parts for our Dyson Animal. He's going to see if that fixes some of our problems, and if not, then we'll get a new vacuum.

I'll let you know what we decide and how well it works. It may take a while though, but I'll be in touch!

Oh, NP, Zoe!

Hope your new job is going well!

And if I end up getting one before you, I'll let you know which one and what I thought of it, too.

Thanks, Mary! Will definitely look at that!
