My hoover is a Morphy Richards - Bagless vacuum storm pets, it was around £80 and is lasting as well as my old Dyson did, we wear them out so quickly as you can imagine, lots of hairs to Vac up here;-) But at a fraction of the cost of a Dyson I can use three before I would of bought a Dyson. They are good on all types of floors as you can raise and lower the head quite easily.
We've been lucky my lot don't destroy things, the only one who did was Zeta when she and James were much younger and so close, he would go to school and miss him, so she would sneak off up to his room and chew up his Dinosaurs!!!!!!!!!!!!! The others have all been good but they do have a big sweetie basket full of chews, bones, toys etc: Ceilidh loved it!
