    Bought a new Dyson. The last one was about 7 years old and it was bottom of the line at the time. It still works, but with a long haired wife, a big dog and long haired cat it was always jammed up Bought the one with the attachments for animal fur. Pretty expensive so I'm hoping it's all it's cracked up to be and doesn't get tangled.

    The Dyson Ball Vacuum has a very misleading name! Put me in the hospital for 3 days.

    They are definitely worth the money.

    Alright this vacuum actually owns. I vacuumed the entire house, the cat's and dog's bed and there isn't a single strand of hair clogged in the powerhead. On top of that, I had to empty the larger canister FAR more times than normal, which tells me that the old vacuum was doing a completely shit job.

    For the hardwood, this thing has a soft powerhead attachment with a laser on it that beams a flat light across the floor to see dust and hair... I thought it sounded like a stupid gimmick, but I was horrified and highly entertained realizing how dusty certain areas of the house were that I thought were fine.


    Money well spent. Who knew a vacuum would be this fun Am I old now?

    Replacing our old cordless Dyson that finally gave up the ghost. Got a good deal because we are Beyond+ members at Bed, Bath, and Beyond ($39.95/year) and you get 20% off every purchase and free shipping. So saved $100 on this and got it shipped for free. Should be here today.

    It's probably a $250 thermostat, but the "$692.00" price tag is because they have it in stock and included trouble shooting and installation.. I tried to buy one on Amazon but nothing was available to show up the next day. Everything was a vague Nov. 8th- Nov 16th delivery time frame.. I could continue searching and probably locate one but Im not sure what time I would have to invest.. Also, if for some reason the thermostat is not the problem, the Lennox guys will uninstall it and continue their diagnostic and not charge me for that..

    That's fucked up though that they charge so much. You know there won't be any problems with the thermostat until it goes beyond the warranty. That's the way it always goes.
