Bugger that, just get a good vacuum and let *it* do the work.

I was just thinking that.

The electric powered beater bar on my Miele cylinder probably beats the
carpet up more than she does; same goes for most uprights.

I thought I was going to see Sid Vicious wielding the vacuum cleaner.

Cheaper than a wife and it will not cause you grief.

Same with our Miele vacuums, both the upright and the cylinder.

I considered getting one of them. Fortunately a mate lent me his for a
weekend to try out, and it convinced me within half an hour not to bother.

The suction involved is minimal - something like a 2" PC fan if I
remember rightly. Most of the pickup is by beaters like in my granny's
old mechanical carpet-sweeper. On my living room floor (laminate put in
by the previous owners) it didn't actually pick anything up, rather
collecting the not-particularly-visible dirt into big clumps, which it
periodically let go of leaving a pile on the floor. Essentially, it was
a dirt-concentrator that made the room look worse. And then it got stuck
on the edge of the rug. (No fringes or tassels, just too thick for it
meaning that it got grounded.) The charging station that has to be left
in a prominent position on the floor for it to be properly autonomous
didn't add to the look of the room either.

That said, my friend loves it.

My mate has one. He has a mixture of wooden. laninate and tiled floors. It
picks the dog hairs up daily but cannot match my Henry for power.
