When my mom called after she got back home (standard protocol in this family so we know you made it home okay)

So when she called I gushed about how much easier it was and how much fin it was and how nice everything looked and how her grandchildren vacuumed their own rooms. Did I mention I gushed and gushed and let her know how much I appreciated it and her thoughtfulness?

Temporary canister vac? Are you planning on a non temporary vac sometime soon?

Is yours purple too? My daughter thought that was the cool.

Nice to know someone else has the same one and loves it.

And with a 5 year old and a 10 month old, yes, I vacuum every day. Of course now with the Dyson, the carpet actually looks clean when I'm done, unlike the string of old and busted vacs I had.

Nice to know that someone has had one for a while and it still is going.

I busted lots of vacuums because of burned belts because my long hair clogged the roller brushes. This one has a roller brush that is so easy to clean and no belt to fuss with. That is awesome.

It was so expensive I'm a bit afraid of breaking it. I hope it lasts a very long time.

Yeah. I'm wearing DH down to letting me buy a Dyson when this one goes bad.

Happy birthday and congrats on the vacuum.

I have the Dyson Animal Vac (purple) as well. I've had it for 4 yrs now. I absolutely love it and would never go back to anything else.

My dh got it for me for my b-day/anniversary. There is such satisfaction to see all the stuff come off your carpets each time you vacuum.

Congrats on the new Vacuum. Mom's are the best!
