I love this vacuum. I have two of them and I guess the twins are about 48 years old. I can remember when I moved to my farm home that I always had one upstairs and one downstairs. Not much was said about my trusty helpers until my youngest daughter went off to college. When she would return and I would want her to help me - there were always comments - why don't you get rid of these old vacuums and buy another one. They are not picking up. I have had the cords replaced twice and both times were told they are working great!I can remember when Debbi (the young lady from the Netherlands) was visiting in the Spring. She came to my home one day and the vacuum was sitting on the floor. She commented, what is that. I told her my ancient vacuum. She almost laughed out loud and commented "it looks like a robot." I thought to myself maybe that means it looks new and modern!!!
This morning while Caitlin was with me I brought the vacuum out. She looked at it with her hands on her hips and a smile on her face and said "grandma what is that"? So my vacuums must look unusual.
From time to time I look at new models. I notice they look like they are not made out metal like my helpers and when I view the price tag I think to myself, why replace my two trusty helpers.
Sometimes I wonder when my days are ended which one of my children will be hoping for these two treasures. But then maybe it will be a granddaughter. I doubt it!!!
Another morning on my Journey Through This Life.
