      Mintymin,

      Go for the electrolux handheld vacuum Ergorapido, I am currently using the 2nd generation which I bought a month ago at $199. Previously I was using the 1 generation which lasted me for 4 yrs (2008) and it cost me only $189.

      check out this youtube link

              mine is inherited from my parents, some chi-na brand. But works fine so far. Just that need to charge for a looooooong time -6hrs or so.

                Can share wat is your dyson model?

                I have the DC26 Allergy

                http://www.dyson.com.sg/store/product.asp?product=DC26-WOODWOOL

                It is really small and serve me well.

                I used to own a Philips wireless. Find the suction no matter how is weaker than those with wires. And the suction time is limited and battery charging time long. For small area vaccuming still ok, for the whole house, not useful at all. And bcos the Dyson is small, I vaccuum the table and shelves as i vaccuum the floor.
                Hubby also used it to vaccuum the fans, ceiling lights and all. One of my best investment so far. in my opinion, a better tool than my irobot.

                        I’ve been so busy and no time to surf KSP since my maid went home after her contract finished. Was thinking of getting an iRobot until I saw the posts here abt new vacuum cleaners like Dyson and Electroleux. But aren’t these the normal ones you have to do it yourselves? Are they really better than iRobots which will do the job for you?
