I see on the Lowes & Home Depot websites that there are a lot of different models. Can anybody tell we what the difference is between DC17, DC18, DC24, DC25, etc.???

Boy you guys are a lot of help (not). Look, I’ve been married for 13 years and I think I know my wife better than any of you do. The question wasn’t "should I get this for my wife for Christmas".
And just so you know…a couple years ago I surprised her at Christmas with a trip to Key West just for the 2 of us. I also spent a year going through our old photo albums and scanning all the photos and putting them to music to create DVD slide shows. And this year I drove my wife and kids and her elderly parents across country so my father-in-law could visit the last sister he has left alive. I do the dishes. I help with the kids, with the cooking, etc……..so don’t give me crap about not being thoughtful or romantic. Did it ever occur to people that if you show your love for your spouse on a daily basis then maybe they don’t expect you to make it all up once or twice a year at Christmas and Valentines Day?? Give me a break people.

I guess my wife is unique, cause honestly, there’s nothing she wants more than one of these Dysons. (I don’t know why.) Believe me, I never thought I’d consider spending that kind of money on a freakin vacuum.

So back in the day I might get excited about buying new shoes, or an electronic something, a cool accessory. *Sigh* Well I am soooo excited about…my new vacuum. It’s coming Wednesday and I can’t wait to use it.

My Dyson died, and honestly this is my 2nd one in 4 years, I’m done with that brand. After reading hundreds of reviews and looking at all the allergy and asthma websites, this one looked like the best option with the best reputation.

Is this normal? Is it a mom thing to get excited about appliances? Please say yes
Stay@: It does do hardwood and the lin… I can’t wait to use it. I have carpet in the bedrooms and livingroom, hardwood in the kitchen and lino in the bathroom. I may leave work early Wednesday to fully appreciate my purchase… Oh if my high school friends could see me now. lol
