Yes AlexHoovers94, that's the problem I have as well, and I live alone in a Victorian 2 bed terrace. My total count is now at 46 vacs plus 2 handhelds. My back bedroom has 26 vacs in (plus the double bed), my own bedroom only has 2 as I don't really want to be sleeping with them all lol. I have 3 in the living room and 14 in the loft. Its very easy to get carried away and I now have to say no to any more unless I REALLY want them or they are something special. Gone are the days when I drive across the midlands and the north west to get them though. If they are not within 15 miles of Stoke then they don't get bought. I've missed out on some good models though as sellers cant be bothered to post them and all the best ones seem to be located 100's of miles away in Kent or Scotland. The pics are from a month or so back and the positions of my vacs change as I move them about. I try to put the ones in the loft now that I don't use any more or that need parts such as the 2 juniors which have knackered motor bearings and the E502 which also has a knackered motor bearing. I now have all the Dysons in the loft as they don't get used. I like the old Dysons but I have had enough of Dyson's greed and poor quality crap that he sells to people now.

I take it your guardian has put his/her foot down and said that you cant take over any more of the house with your hoovers?

Sounds like you need to move somewhere bigger - ie a small warehouse lol

What does your guardian think of all your hoovers? (at least your landing carpet is always clean lol)

And some more in that room

oh and not forgetting these 2

Both my beds are double divans that have no storage space underneath. I have loads of room for more vacs if I wanted to keep them in the living room, but I don't want them to take over the house, and then I'm likely to appear on Hoarders, where every inch of spare space is filled with vacs including the staircase (Like John Longs house ;-) lol)

The newer Vax bagless cylinders like my Power 6 Pet is a pain to store as it wont stand on its end, and seems to take up loads of space, which is why its back in its box now, as Parwaz786 says, they are not very reliable and I don't want it burning out on me. The Miele canisters are great for storage, taking up no bigger a footprint than the uprights.

Henry is a right royal pain in the arse too as turbo500 says, so he lives in a little corner of the living room under the stairs.

In general though, unless I keep the cylinder cleaners in their boxes dismantled, they are more awkward to store, due to the hoses and wands, not to mention all the different floorheads and accessories.

Alexhoovers94, you will have to butter your mother up a bit to make her more accepting of your vacs - promise to do the washing up or mow the lawn or even that you will finish doing the painting and decorating on the stairs and landing?
