It's beautiful. :) I'll be anxious to hear how you feel about the Electrolux after the newness wears off. If you're still thrilled with it by 2011, I may have to splurge and buy one to replace my fairly new Kenmore. It just doesn't seem to pick up the dog hair as well as I'd like. At least not off one of the large rugs we have in the kitchen. It may just be that the nap of that rug holds on to the dog hair more firmly than the berber carpet throughout the house.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-73728829920331605532010-06-20T18:48:08.826-04:002010-06-20T18:48:08.826-04:00J.G., that is hilarious!!
