Dyson vacuum cleaners. I've had mine for about 20 years, had to replace a part here and there, but it's just as strong as the day I got it. Probably the single best purchase I've ever made. A close second would be my Sonicare toothbrush.

Dyson is a marketing company that happens to make okay vacuums. Anyone who owns a Miele or SEBO vacuum would never go to a Dyson. Dyson vacuums never hold up to their high quality bagged competitors in almost any regard. Just my 2c. I used my family's Dyson before moving out and buying a canister SEBO and the difference is remarkable. https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/blog/what-we-learned-from-vacuum-enthusiasts/

I've got a Kirby that was my grandmother's. The thing is solid metal and weighs a ton but I don't think it I'll ever die.

[–] hogmomma@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I "sold" Kirbies for a short time. Super-glamorous job (haha).

Surprisingly, yes to both of these. I was just commenting on how long my Dyson vacuum has lasted a couple days ago.

If only they weren't so fucking ugly

That's part of their charm! I've always thought mine looked pretty badass. 🙂
