Put up with it?

I've never bought anything that bad but I have been disappointed with some things. If the vacuum cleaner is that bad I might cut my losses and get an easier one but only if I could afford to otherwise I'd be stick with it.

Well, if I have/use something that I just can't live with, I give it to my grateful youngest son and replace it (I know not everyone can afford to do this). I have a Shark hoover (corded) and after 4 Dysons (corded) over many years, it is brilliant, so much better than the Dysons. My other son has a cordless Dyson and loves it, but seeing as we have a labrador that moults continuously, I didn't want a cordless, as I hoover up consrantly.

Watermeadow I have just brought a cordless Bosch must say I love it. My old vac was to heavy. I have problems with my limbs and loss of strength in my arms. It was the lightest one in Currys. Fine it easy to use and empty. What suits one person doesn't always suit everyone.

No. I don’t put up with anything if I have the means to change it. I just don’t. Out it goes!

Moving in with my partner has been a challenge. I must try to cultivate some of his acceptance of things as they are.

Or maybe not......

I've got a shark corded which is brilliant, mostly used by our cleaner, but I bought a dirt cheap cordless for between times.

Two of my children have Dyson Cordless but I'm not keen.

Shark vacuums (corded and lift away) are brilliant.

Spent years trying to find vacuum cleaner that I liked. Different types, different makes (cordless, bagless, corded, with bags). Nothing was right. Like my old large Dyson 4, but could not move it upstairs and it was heavy, and cost a fortuante if it broke down.
For Christmas 2018, my children bought for me a package of GTech upright cordless and handheld cordless.
From when I first used them both I knew I had discovered what I had been looking for = for over twenty years. These were brilliant in my house and are equally brilliant in my flat and the cordless one is ideal for the car.
Cannot fault them in anyway at all.

Absolutely agree on the Shark. Miles ahead of Dyson but you do need to keep the filters washed.

Yes, I put up with things, probably to my own detriment.
I'm using a phone which overheats, randomly jumps from feature to feature, and switches off for longer and longer periods..

I just don't enjoy change.

The financial relationships between corporations and world governments have "changed" everything and not for the better except for investors, corporations and those in government-

Their practices and policies place financial burdens on the rest of the world while they rake in profits- Trying to stop it is like spitting at a raging wildfire, or spitting at your neighbor, who is impoverished, ignorant, bigoted and steeping in the lies told to them by their government, or spitting at your wealthy neighbor because they financially benefit from the burden being placed on persons around the world and the earth itself- Its like spitting into the wind-

Not many are in the financial position to protect themselves from succumbing to destitution due to unexpected life events, yet many pretend to be- Believing a ship won't sink even while it's steadily taking on water is the epitome of denial-

I always liked uprights but when mine needed replacement my son bought a Henry. It did work very well but I found it too heavy and awkward, I hated using it and could not carry it up or down stairs. When my son left home I gave it to him.
I know have a cordless Dyson as recommended by my SIL. I'm really happy with this, hoovering is so much easier.

I have a Miele Cat and Dog, works brilliantly, is light. Practically sucks the carpet up.

I have a Bosch cordless and like it, but hate the Dyson that it replaced. Why not just get rid of it? If you have FB, look on your local selling pages, list yours and put the money towards something else, life is too short! The Shark seems to get excellent feedback, and the Miele ( although they are far more expensive).

We have a fridge freezer that has been noisy from the off and we still can't get the shelves in a position that suits us. We've put up with it and will do so until we move or it breaks down. A case of CBA to do otherwise.
On the subject of vacuums, I have recently acquired a robot vac and I love it. Almost no effort required and it cleans better than anything I've owned before.

Either replace it or (my favourite) get somebody else to do the hoovering. I have a look at the Which reports before I buy things (they are available free in the library or £1 for temporary membership).

We bought the Gtech K9 package last year on the free hand held Vac deal when buying the upright, we love it! Light, powerful and easy to empty with no expensive disposable bags to buy, it simply slides the dirt out of the canister and into the bin. Theres enough power to do the whole of the downstairs, including any bits off the kitchen floor, and then swop to the lightweight hand vac for the Staircase itself. It's so lightweight that even my young grandaughter likes using it to clean around the Guinea pig cage when shes had them out!

I have a Henry which I only purchased last week and I love it.

The Henry's are brilliant if you are fit and strong enough to carry them around your home. We have still got our pink Henrietta bought for cleaning up on jobs when my husband was a joiner before he retired, he still uses it to clean the mess out of the garage if hes been doing his wood carving out there.

I have a Bosch Athlet 3 years and think its good, although the third level switch isn't working now which is disappointing but I rarely used that one anyway.
However we are all different. If money wasn't an issue I would most definitely get rid now if I were you. Put it on local Gumtree or similar.

Totally agree CurlyWhirley we have a corded shark best hoover ever, after buying corded dysons including the animal oneThe shark beats all of them , I will say we have a Bosch fridge freezer that sounds as if it’s singing. A bit of a sad song I must admit but we are used to it humming away

Love my (20-year-old) Henry so much I can't bring myself to get another vac, although having broken a leg and now a hip a lightweight cordless would be much more suitable!

I have a Dyson animal which I dislike. Find emptying it such a faff. Half if the time I get dust on the floor, then I can't get it clipped back on. I just keep it upstairs, I think that they might have updated the emptying process. However it was a lot of money and I don't think that it's fit for purpose.

I wish I could swop my Bosch washing machine that has no ‘just spin’ programme, for one that does! You can get it to spin only by fiddling with the ‘rinse and spin’ programme but it’s a bloody faff every time, and just after we got it I wrecked a lovely hand-knitted jumper - the wool cost over £70 - because after hand washing it I mis-faffed with the wretched machine.

I'm a simple soul.

Nothing like a Henry/Hetty. Long lead, excellent suck and easy peasy to empty.

A bit heavy and being round, difficult to store.
