Lately, New Daddy has been randomly browsing craigslist to search for various items that we might like to have. A couple of weeks ago, he looked for a Kirby vacuum; lo and behold, he found someone willing to part with one for only $325, after he haggled them down a bit. We jumped at the chance, and after a little cleaning of the vacuum itself, it was ready to change our lives.
How dramatic is this change? Well, I actually enjoy vacuuming now, and do it every other day, as opposed to relying on a whim that might have struck me every two weeks, or at least when company was coming. And, our house no longer has a musty, dusty smell that we used to smell whenever we entered. It actually smells clean.
Thanks to our vacuum, and New Daddy's window-unsticking skills, I can now see out of a few more of our windows, too. This morning, after he unstuck them and availed us of the wonderful air outside, I stuck the flexible tube in the space between the glass and screens and vacuumed several years' worth of webs and egg sacs that were long-ago destroyed by Ortho Home Defense. I can now see the back yard from the kitchen window! It's a very worthy view, too.
The vacuum actually raises the piling on the carpet while I vacuum, and it's self-propelled. I don't need to say much more. It's worth the money, especially for price we paid. :D
