I NEVER can find a good vacuum.......I have an Oreck...which I do not like....it NEVER picks up....and cannot get corners....tried the cheapo ones from Walmart.....under 100.00., Eureka.......something about spending a lot on a vacuum drives me nuts.....of course, I don't have a dog yet.....but, now I wish I would have bought a DYSON.....because it is almost not worth the worry and stress of going thru 3 that do not work....just to save a buck....
but, I hate the bagless....they spew the dust when you empty the container....
