Ron,

How long is that accessory?

Dave

Very well Jackie.  We have had one for five years and touch wood it is okay.  I 
use it myself and it follows me upstairs as well.  There is a six feet 
accessory, IE myself for reaching high shelves and ceilings.  Available for 
hire,smile.

Cheers

Ron

In all seriousness, I'm in the market for a new vacuum-cleaner, and my son
keeps going on at me to buy a Dyson.  I've not had much experience of them,
but lots of people tell me they aren't as good as they are cracked up to be.
How have people got on with them?

And is the talking cleaner very heavy, and can you push it around manually
so to speak?  After all, I'm used to having a proverbial broom following me
around. (smile.)
