Things that suck (mumsnet: vacuum cleaners)

Sam seems to think if she keeps buying cleaning appliances, a critical mass will be reached whereby they start cleaning the house by themselves, since we’re both too damned lazy to do it ourselves very often.

One consequence of this is…

Lurid green 1980s Goblin wet’n’dry.
Dead Henry :skull:
Miele corded 1990s - could suck matter back out of a black hole; weighs the same as a neutron star.
Enormous Vax wet’n’dry that has been used once. Requires a full week to strip down and clean once it’s been used.
Tiny Ryobi battery-powered Wand of Advanced Uselessness.
3 x Vax battery portables. (Yes, three…) Quite good hoovers, but the batteries die regualrly.
1 x Vax 2-battery upright. Quite good, cleaner likes it, no further comments…

There may be more hidden away from me/shit I’ve forgotten.

Any thoughts on those robot ones? Like Paul i’ve not put my cock in a Hoover, but I do like the idea of putting one on it.

The only realistic option there is to incinerate everything and start again from the floor joists.

You’re the sucker here. :grinning:

Dyson’s main skill set isn’t engineering as he would have you believe, it’s marketing.

Really, I refuse to buy anything Dyson as he’s a brexity cunt who then moved the HQ from the UK to Singapore who coincidently had just signed a FTA with the EU.

He went to the same sales and marketing school as Elon Musk :rofl:

Ooof! That shit’s landfill within a week of warranty expiration.

And as pointed-out, Dyson is a weapons-grade cunt, tho’ I appreciate that may have been part of the attraction…
