The new B&D "Flex" (FHV1200) is, after all, available. Price run, as far as I've discovered, is 70 to 90 bucks and the FHV1200's ace in the hole is its dishwasher safe filter. Mind you, I am sure that there are those who quake at the thought of using the family diswasher to clean a vacuum filter but it sounds nice to me. The B&D link follows. Be sure to click on the "View All Photos" link.

Hi Venson:

$70-$90 for the B&D Flex:  Excellent price, thanks for the info.  Don't even need the lovely lady come with for that price.  AND I can buy it without the War Department's approval.

If my vacuum can remove even one spec of dirt that yours misses, then mine is better than yours - even if there's no proof that mine would have picked up as much dirt as yours...

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.  ...

I don't know if you're a James Bond fan, but James "the inventor" Dyson, sometimes reminds me of Q.  If James is going along with the charade, the girl is merely pretending to be a Bond girl with gun and all. 

The smart tyrant writes his own story to ensure that it is favorable.  The lazy will repeat lines from the book without fact checking.

Nice price -- 63 bucks. Please note that, per the BB website, it is selling as an "online only" item. The Dyson Root 6 Animal is going for $180.

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.

Carmine,

You find fault in this gorgeous model?  More proof your judgment cannot be trusted.

She does not work for Dyson as you assume, she’s Miss IFA 2009 and works for IFA.  She took many photos with many manufacturers products; if you did your due-diligence you’d know.  More proof your judgment cannot be trusted.


DIB

P.S.  When God makes these beauties, they look spectacular with or without wigs and with or without makeup.  Trust me I know and know it intimately!  I love the all-red IFA look and their all-red Miss IFA look too.

My judgment, DIB, is that she is wearing a wig:  As in fake hair.  What part of my judgment is wrong/in error? 

Since I can't see the rest of her, as I could with the lovely figured B&D lady, not too much more to judge.  Makes me question: What's wrong with her own hair that she prefers a wig?  And a pretty bad one at that!   

She may very well be one of God's creations but a "beauty" is stretching the truth if its's based on the little bit we can see which is a wig and alot of makeup!   I'd say your judgment is reaching beyond the given facts and more into the realm of your imagination!  Why does that not surprise me?

Now, the B&D lady, tho fully covered, has some very beautiful attributes including her own hair.  Most of her attributes despite the clothes, which fit her very well, are clearly revealed and visible w/o need for imagination thanks to the large image you posted.  Worth seeing again.  So here's an encore.

Retardturtle1,

We can agree on some things for sure (beautiful women and marrying).  I applaud you for getting married early (to me it is early).   One day you’re probably going to want kids and you’re going to want them to be proud of what you do (vac shop ownership or whatever).  Many vac shop guys feel entitled to slander another mans business so to get ahead.  As a kid who watched his father go from janitor to restaurateur and gross over $7-8m per yr. (1986 money), I NEVER ONCE heard him bad-mouth a competitor.  And as you can imagine, he had competition all around and including 40 ft. across the street.  Many of his competitors were his friends.  If lying is part of doing business or as they say…  “it’s only business” then choose another career (your not to old).  Lots (not all) of vac-shop “do-nothin’s”, “never-were’s” and “has-been’s” hang around this site and industry…  haul asssss from these types!!!!  If you cannot do it for you, then do it for your wife and future kids[?].  You’re the man of the household and family – she (and the kids?) will all look to you to deliver.

And if bad-mouthing competitor’s is the way you want to go, then be ready for the day the bad-mouthing dealers to be exposed.  What is to prevent anyone from going online (Youtube) and explaining the vac con’s and margins?  This is a great vulnerability if you think about it.
