This sucks...or doesn't

You know you have a problem when you want to only use the hose section of your vacuum to clean your house. You have an even bigger problem when your hose shrivels up and dies and stops suctioning and you want to use your handheld dustbuster to clean the house. You have an evenBIGGER problem when the dustbuster doesn't work! Has it been six months? Yes? Time to go to the store.
ARGHHH! Are we the only family that vacuums don't work for?
We've tried changing the belts, bags, there is no clog... We seem to buy vacuums every six to nine months. No kidding. We are afraid to spend more than $150 every six months... That would be horrible to buy a $300 vacuum and replace it every six months.
Just venting.

Funny you should post this, as yesterday I had trouble with my vacuum. I was trying to use the hose to get into some hard to reach places and it just wasn't sucking. Luckily for me I just had to dislodge the top of a lightsaber that had been stuck down into the extension thingy. Then it started sucking.
By the way, the last vacuum I bought was at a yard sale for 15 dollars. I was willing to give it a shot. Turns out it was one of the top rated ones on consumer reports. It works great. Unless you have an over zealous jedi on your hands.

Sorry for the long comment :)
