Vacuums...

Kay so this is like totally not what we usually talk about lol, but the vacuum store is closed and I don't have another day to get down there when they're open till Thursday. Anyone got any idea why my kirby is leaving clumps of hair on the floor (I have a dog)? Its like more hair than the section of floor had on it to begin with. I just checked it and unclogged it, put on a new bag.. *frustrated*

Bullettes? The homemakers of the zodiac got any ideas for me?

Turn it on and lay it down. Is the bar/pole with the bristles moving? Make sure hair didn't wrap around it and stop its movement. You may also have to take some apart and follow the suction path and make sure it's not clogged up.

depending what model you have...

+1, single dad first one to answer me. ^.^

So, I took a picture..

Idk if you can see the arrows or if they showed up? But I cleaned out the hair from all the tubes/holes, and it DOES still spin. But you can see the clumps of hair too...

Did you get where the bag goes into the base?

Ya I stuck a clothes hanger through it up to where the bag attaches.. the only thing left that could have hair in it is the motor and idk how to clean that..

If the removable face is clean & clear, and the hose area is good, hopefully you find something in that part of the base. If not there is a plate on the base that is removable.

when it was together was there any suction?

Not coming from the bag down.

Once the back is unhooked and pushed away, the piece it attaches to into the base.

Sigh. Yeah, no luck. Couldn't get the plate off though, its way complicated. Might just have to wait till thursday and take it in.

I think I got it unclogged for a second but it clogged up again? Brand new carpet (fibers) and dog hair don't mix well.

Anyone else find all this domesticity speak mildly arousing? Must just be me. Back to our regularly schedule programming.

Porn for women. 😄 LOL aPP. Exactly.

You all are crazy lol...

These first three aren't really guys. they have to be some kind of woman spies or some other kind of evil trying to make us look bad. The last three are fine.

I love those last three. The first three.. make me wonder if the guys are gay.

OMG finally got the stupid thing fixed. A little bit of Sid's knowledge and a little bit of my creativity. That hair was driving me BATTY. *ahh clean house* And freshly cleaned blankets and sheets too

*raising hand* Oh wait....LOL

LOL 'Aren't really guys.." This is woman fantasy sir.

I'm saving those for later. 😉

ROFLOL Exactly!

ROFL VB. I'd love to entertain ya. I don't think you'd really get to enjoy the bed tho. Yeah I think my bull would enjoy it here right now. Too bad hes like 200 miles away :/

HAHAHA I agree.. first three are PROPAGANDA and will NEVER happen.. cuz if they do, THAT guy is going to leave you someday for a guy named Enrique or Duarte. 😛

Last three.. that's just Evolved Male And Loves Doing Things For His Woman And Family.

Well.. #2 might not be GAY.. but he's DEFINITELY up to something, wanting something, or sorry for something. 😉

Well... and #3 probably wants to buy you some slutty stripper heels.. and do you while you're wearing them. With the lights on.

Cuz he can't just SAY, "Honey.. I have a little bit of a stripper fantasy. Dress up for me and let's play?"... too many women would be like, "STRIPPER fetish?! WTF?! Is THAT why the checkbook never balances?! Is THAT where you go when you're 'working late' or when out with the guys? Huh? Huh? What's wrong with me the way I am? Am I not SEXY enough for you?! WTF you MEAN you want to leave the lights on? NO WAY! Are you some kinda FREAK?! My mother never liked you.. she tried to warn me you were shady. You're sleeping on the couch tonight, buddy. UGH!"
