DIB...you win..i like what comes with the dyson better.....she makes me wanna vacuum the house! ...write it off as-my youth an lack of common sence has impared my ability to make rational decisions.

Your saying so, doesn't make it so!  Nothing unusual/different for you.  The same for most of your spewing off here.  Never makes sense, often is completely wrong, if not silly and having nothing to do with the thread facts and truth.

Hi 'turtle1'

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

DIB:

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?

Hello Vacmanuk:

Did you keep/return the DC16?

Hello 'turtle1'

After 37 years of marriage, my dear Wife doesn't have to tell me when to take out trash.  By the way, you may want to take out that fake lady and dyson with the trash.  When you get to W*M take note of what handhelds it stocks and sells.  Let us know please if dyson is there for sale.  I'm thinking not.

HI CARMINE

Not a problem...consider it done ...as thats where i go to hang out at first then its off to electronics.....but such a shame to trash a beautiful work of art.......the girl that is.

Married less than 2 yrs..first time -no kids ..either of us...all still new to me ...but my wonderful wife always seems to bring me back to reality Carmine.

Hello 'turtle1'

Happy Wife, happy life.  In all things including vacuums!

It's silly that a woman would pose with a dyson handheld in a weapon like stance almost like a trophy.  Clever marketing strategy, perhaps.  Most women loath the earlier DC16 tool-like hand held design, limited clean-ups due to the short run time constraints, noise etc.  More a man's toy but very impratical for most men, especially handy men, due to the short run time [5 minutes] and too high prices [$150-$200].   After 3 years most manufacturers would address all these shortcomings/issues in the new redesign and models, especially at the higher prices.  But dyson's DC30/31 leaves me with many doubts.  More importantly, I shared my dear Wife's perspective on the DC16 in the past.  Persuading her now on the DC30/31 would be a HARDSELL at the current prices.  More likely an impossibity.
