Bought a Bissell Clearview Helix $79 at Target. My Dyson decided once again that the brush didn't want to spin, grrrrr. Once I took it apart, again for the umteenth time, cleaned around the connectors etc. the brush decided ok I will work for now.
This new machine does circles around my $500 Dyson, good lord. It has onboard tools that you just pull the hose handle out and attach what you want then vacuume.

With two long haired dogs, one long hair, one short haired cat, I need one that will work when I need it to, not be wishy-washy.
I could not believe the dust that this new one picked up - it is bagless.
Thanks

Walmart has it for $99, Target $79 and right now for the next few days it has a $10 Rebate. It is a nice machine, need to make sure the filters are cleaned. I could not believe that with just one use on 5 rooms, they ALL needed cleaning - the dust from the cat litter, that is changing later today. Not going to buy that brand again (cat's Pride) too dusty.

I used a friends Rainbow once, remember the water tank well. It did a good job, was somewhat akward to move around with the water tank though. She lived in a mobile home though back in Calif.
With all the hair in my house via the animals, I need something that will really pick up and is easy to move around.
