If the B&D Flexi comes with the lady using it for $180, it's definitely worth the price and I'd buy one. Carmine D.
HI CARMINE
Heck id buy a dyson if she came with it....now that would justify the price. Still early, but kinda seems steep in price for a B&D vacuum....no cord option either or [lighter plug in ]...no charge complete light...i like the look of it and seems more apt to do better in tight spots....but i kinda see it has having the same problems as the dyson....price -cord opt -run time......just my view, but i see the no cord opt [home -auto ]as the biggest problem with the battery handvacs......adding this option would make these vacs more universal..and make the price more appealing in todays economy.

WRT your "soup" question about the moving lamp shade, perhaps it is connected to a stationary extension tube? One that doesn't move. Did that thought/possibility ever cross your mind? Carmine D. No, because the typical lamp style cord is clearly visible. And no, because hard wiring would not typically allow a lamp to be pushed/tilted ever-so slightly and with little preasure (the lamp no longer rests at a right angle to the hanging cord). And no, because hard wiring a paper or cloth lamp and the costs associated with this is overkill. DIB

Hi 'turtle1'
I'd say her hair is as fake as the claim that the dyson handheld she's holding is worth the money. Carmine D.

The B&D Flexi isn't even turned on. The lovely lady is merely posing and holding the hose with dusting brush to simulate it's usage. Did that thought/possibilty ever enter your mind? Carmine D.

Best option is to actually buy it and try it. I tried the first Dyson hand held and wasn't impressed with its bulky size. Good suction it has but plenty of noise with it too.
Hello Vacmanuk:
Did you keep/return the DC16? Carmine D.
