Default reccomend me a vaccuum cleaner

After just a few months of light duty, enough bits have fallen off the latest plastic Hoover to make me want to call it a day. It can join the dungeon, with the useless Dyson DC01 (wire snapped), DC04 (wheels fell off), both of which failed to impress. All this hepa filter nonsence, I just want something that will beat the **** out of the carpet and get all the muck and dog hairs out, not gently glide along saving the planet.

Now my gran had a proper hoover, made of pig iron with a big light on the front, that would take a cats tail off. I want something that good.

Any reccomendations?

Miele cat & dog M.A.X. It's jolly good - better than the dyson IMO (we've had two).

Pretty much anything Miele is supposed to be good - what happened to your first one? (Or do you mean you've had two johnny dysons?)

My Dyson DC08 (made in England) is fantastic.

I used to have hoover 1800watt that was useless getting the dogs hair out the carpet - had the spinning brushes etc etc

So I got a Dyson DC11 and IT'S AMAZING!!! it will suck the dog hair out the carpet in no time!!! Dyson for me and with 5years warranty when/if it goes wrong i'll get another one cause it will have made it's money
