My New Toy

Got a new toy today......



Looks super cool eh? Bagless. I tried it only on a small section in my carpeted room, and it did pick up lotsa dust, dirt, lint of watchmaliketocallit.

Then I started examining this cool thang without even giving the manual a glimpse. Shouldn't be too hard right? It's just a vacuum cleaner after all. How difficult can that be?! Half a minute later, how on bloomin' earth do I take out this bagless container? Aahhh... here's a button.

Whoosshh.......pop! The lid opened...... from underneath! AISEYMAN! I expected the opposite end. Lucky it's new, otherwise I would have threw a fit and cursed it like there's no tomorrow. And so, anyway, Wilkin didn't comment much about it. And I think his the cat got his tongue when I answered his question on the price of it. Nevermind. I like, I pay. Courtesy of PayPerPost this time. Muaahahahhaaa.... !

Tip : Never go for price that are too good to be true. Even if you have a teeny-weeny house like mine, thinking you only need a small one. Got one 2 years back, and it was a waste of money. You get what you pay for. The price may be more inviting for one brand with 2400W and more expensive with a well-known brand for 2000W, but you will at least have a peace of mind knowing the warranty for the latter will be definitely honoured. Plus they have better quality motors, I reckon. And lastly, I would go for at least 2000W and not less than that. Trust me, makes my life easier.

Chewaah! Talking like expert. You know why? I am a cheapo. Was, am, still, will be. Got a cheapo vacuum cleaner, end up spending more getting a new one. Now smarter, but still try to be a cheapo whenever I can.

i think most Malaysian chinese are cheapo one. bargaining is one of their skills. i prefer the malay word for that, "kedekut & bakil".

yalo, the vacum very canggih one.
