I would prefer an upright bagless but would really consider anything that can do a good job and won't keep letting me down.
I have had a Dyson Animal but had to keep un-clogging the brush bar.
I have also had a Vax turbo 1700 but although the brush bar doesn't clog up, the brush bar itself keeps siezing up and I have had to replace it twice. Now looking for a replacement that is reliable and efficient and has good powerful cleaning ability. Thanks

Hi,, i'm fairly new to knitting, so i could just be doing something wrong :/

i cast on a certain number of stitches (say 20) but after i have knitted my first row, i usually end up with 1-3 new stitches (now totaling 21-23)? and suggestions as to what i might be doing incorrectly? any help would be appreciated, as i have had to learn from the internet and books and not a first person teacher :(

Thanks in advance!

the leafs stem up wards before opening out and there are on average 10 m shaped black spotts on each leaf. It has flowered little white flowers. At night all the leafs move inwards into a cone shape and faning out again by morning.

I need suggestions or maybe websites that give me ideas about the 'how to's' for hanging cloth up to give a room a "painted" look. I'm moving to a new apartment soon and they are forcing me to keep the paint white - which I absolutely can't stand. So I want to just use some small nails or maybe staples to hang cloth...what do you think?

All of my dishes have this chalky residue . . . you can actually feel it. My glassware is cloudy. I have a water softener, and it has salt. I can fill my rinse agent dispenser with a rinse agent (which is supposed to last a month), and it empties out in 2-3 washes, so something is not right with that. I have tried using a rinse agent and not using one . . . no difference. To get the chalky stuff out of the dishwasher I used a dishwasher cleaner that I had to run through the cycle when the dishwasher was empty. Worked great . . . but it was all back the very first time I did a load. I am using Kirkland Powder detergent. I appreciate any advice on this one!
