There is a feeling that people rarely talk about. The one when you know you’ve stumbled onto something magical and life-changing. It’s an elusive feeling, one frequently spoken about only to close friends and in hushed voices. My sister told me about the feeling, but I didn’t believe her.
No, I’m not talking about multiple orgasms (hmmm, post for another day), but the deep satisfaction that can only be described as cleaning nirvana.
I’ve spent the last 9 months battling mental illness from an onslaught of what my sister refers to as “dog hair tumbleweeds”. I’ve spent hours and days trying to figure ways to outsmart the tumbleweeds, but my efforts were in vain. The tumbleweeds actually multiply at the speed of light. As much as I love Donkey, he is a hair nightmare. Who knew that a Swiffer Sweeper Vac was the cure? I took my sweeper vac all over the hardwood, the tile, under the sofa, behind the toilet and every other hard-to-reach place.
I was in heaven. You may even say I climaxed when I took the cordless sweeper vac directly into Donkey’s kennel and it cleaned up every single bit of dirt, hair, dust and half-eaten piece of dog food.
That, I tell you, is the love I’ve been looking for my entire life.
Wow, I’m so glad you posted this. I was going to go out and by a Dyson Monster this weekend! I think I’ll try the Swiffer Sweeper Vac 1st, because it’s a LOT cheaper!
Sounds like that Swiffer is destined for the Smithsonian. Or the next NIH study.
man I wish my vaccum worked half as well as you describe on my carpets. Gotta love my guys but their furballs everywhere I could definitely do without!
I heart Swiffer products so much that that is all I got for Christmas two years ago. I’m going to email you a post I wrote on an old livejournal account about the Rainbow Vacuum Cleaner.
Enjoy your Swiffer!
I luv a-ha moments, big and small 🙂
And to think I’ve been contemplating a Swiffer. I’ll definitely have to get one now. Either that or get run over by the fur and dust balls blowing around my house!
I have bought so many of these types of products – I keep getting sucked in. Does it really work? Really? I have a Clorox Ready Mop that was eh – OK. I’ve got a regular Swiffer, the Swiffer Wet Jet. But nothing seems to work on my kitchen floors. I don’t even have any dogs, just 3 small children. Maybe the vac is the answer, though.
ain’t love grand?
I wish I had a Swiffer in my love life.
uh, I have a Swiffer, but never quite an experience with it like yours. Maybe you’ve got one with more attachments?
i bought a swiffer wet jet a few weeks ago and thought i was in heaven. then the battery compartment fell to bits, and the liquid leaked everywhere and i felt very very angry. i have a complain letter into p&g now…
but i’m happy for 🙂
I got to look into this. Life hasn’t been the same since our 3rd Roomba died.
have you tried it on the donkey? and on Michael?
we had a similiar prob, with our dog and tile flooring. We bought a canister vac that has the motor behind the trap and it works better than anything I have ever used. If you want the name and model let me know.
I too have recently discovered the magic that is the swiffer vac. It has saved me from dog hair hell.
The swiffer vac? I might have to look into this!
P.S. I might be looking for a new look to my blog soon… what’s the chances I can pay you to make me a header?? and how mucH?
once again the combination of googleing two words has you at #1 … congratulations
And those words would be ‘cleaning nirvana’ Katy?
Sadly, we haven’t got Swiffer Sweeper Vacs down here. You should export them. You’d make a fortune.
Take the sweeper vac directly to the source of he problem. If you likes being vacuumned, it might be a big help. Lucky doesn’t mind too much.
I sense a “Vac Lick” pic soon.
Are you serious? It really works? Topaz is just like Donkey..hair city. Plus I have long haired cats. And four very hair people. yikes. I’m getting one.
