Hetty Vacuum cleaners

80 nicker seems a bit steep for a hoover. At that price I'd be wanting a Kirby (lifetime guarantee on the engine:cool:)

Well, the last one we bought was £50 and motor died in a year and a half. I'm thinking/hoping this will last 5-10 years :)

Are kirby's the ones that people used to knock on your door to do demos for?

think so. They are like the rolls royce of hooverville. You can buy carpet cleaning attatchments, widgets to do the curtains with etc.

I have a fucking ancient one in the attic that has been retired due to being a heavy bastard. The newer models are lighter by far.
 
ah, trying to regain your childhood as middle-age creeps in ;)
I was the least glittery pink child you could ever wish to meet. It does seem to be quite a common thing for women to suddenly become more girly when they hit middle age though so maybe there's something in your theory after all :)

Do they do therm in pink? With smiley faces on them?
 
I'm so tired but I want to go and get that hoover today. I need someone to come and dress me and drive me to the shop. I don't think that's unreasonable.

I've bought a henry now, was enough to get to that decision... shouldn't have to make it again for a few years :D
 
I thought since this thread had started, BB went out and bought a Henry. I was just marvelling the power of suggestion!
