I've done several, and they all die on me. The one I have now is a upright Hoover, and it is going back to the store. I learned and bought the 4 years extended service pack for this one though.
I'm curios to see what has worked for other people, so I can get something good next time. Hopefully I won't have to spend a fortune on it.
Ditto on the Dyson. I've had mine for 4 years and it works as well as the day I bought it. After seeing and using mine, my sister bought one and my mom is currently considering which model to add to her house.
I love my Oreck so much I bought a second one and gave it to my daughter. Best vacuum I ever owned - adjusts automatically for all surfaces, lightweight - does a great job.
Does the Dyson scratch hard wood floors? I've heard stories about some that have that spinning thingy with the brushes that scratch up the floors but am wondering if Dyson is one of them?

Speaking only from my experience with my Dyson Animal Vac. The spinny things turn off and on. Which is my favorite feature. No scratching of my hard wood floors. Press the button, it is just a vaccum with no spinning. Great on tile and wood.
Got my purple Dyson Animal 6 years ago. I bet I vacuum 2 a day every day. it still works great! Easy to take apart and clean. Price tags seems high at purchase but worth every penny.
I've got a 5 year old dyson animal (purple one) and ten dogs that come in the house, sucks as good as when I bought it, had a kirby before and it couldn't handle all that dog hair!
Aloha,

I love my Oreck also, it's light, can go on hardwood and sucks up hair well. Only weakness is it does not get into the edges/corners very well and then I have to get smaller vaccuum out for edging.
