I have a Dyson 17 Animal vacuum that I have had for 8 yrs. It has been my all time favorite vacuum, having 3 kids and 3 dogs has taken its toll on the vacuum. By the time I found Blakeman Vacuum and Sewing I was about to give up on the Dyson 17. It didn’t clean up as well as it used to, it put out a horrible smell, and worst of all it sounded like a jet powering up for take off when the brush was engaged! I had tried other vacuum shops to no avail. Chris had my vacuum for one day and it works like new! It sounds great, smells great, I can hear my kids while the brush is running, and cleans the carpets like it was brand new!
