Hi I am fairly new here but we do have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 guinea pigs and loads of fish plus kids. What vacuum cleaners do you use? I ask this because I vacuum every day and according to my husband I break them fairly quickly. I usually buy a vacuum cleaner every other year (sometimes sooner - I am not a gentle person). Anyway I just bop down to Target and buy whatever is on sale. I pretty much buy Dirt Devils. So our latest vacuum cleaner broke and dh is not happy. Am I the only one who breaks them as often as I do?
