Welcome to your new home, Mr. Hoover
I wasn't impressed yesterday when my cheap Eureka Maxima died shortly after I turned it on. Checked the belt, twice, just in case that was it, even though I recently had changed it. Nope. I can only assume the motor died, but hey, it was about $80 three of four years ago, so what can you expect? However, it remained a necessity to replace it ASAP, and oh, was I ever pissed off. Who has the savings for these kinds of things? I grumped the whole way to Canadian Tire this morning, really cranky about it, but on the up side I got the last one on the shelf, at store opening time of 8AM, btw , and got it for 50% off . I had checked out the on-line flyer and had seen it on sale. I also checked out the customer reviews, and they all were terrific, with the product scoring 4.6 out of 5.0. So Mr. Hoover came home with me on the bus and has settled himself into his new home. Nicki, too, settled himself on the box in short order, claiming it for his own. I don't think he realized...
