Yes, we had the pet one but it was lost in the house fire we had. It worked great but is way expensive. FYI, I spoke to a client of mine in the business and he said it costs $69 to produce a Dyson. Not a bad markup.

That's not factoring mold costs or R&D. Both of those add up quick.

I'd bet most vacuums cost maybe 10-15$ to produce.

No clue Jordan, I was hardly paying attention to her until she told me the price and I realized my wife spent $500 on ours.

Thanks for all the replies. Looks like my cigar budget is going to take a hit.

If you stopped getting ashes on the floor you wouldn't need a new vacuum

I have a purple pet model that I bought at a good price at Costco and it is a real sucker! Watch out for the dog it will bag him too. Only complaint is it fills up the cansiter too fast. Great Machine.
