I hurt my back.
And not just a little twinge of pain. This is a full on, my-back-seized-and-now-I-can’t-pick-up-my-kids hurt. With a four month old and a two year old who insists on playing “two babies,” I am in a bit of trouble.
So, you can imagine, I am more than a bit excited that an Oreck XL Ultra just arrived at my door. This mighty little vacuum weighs only 9 pounds! To hold a vacuum that weighs so little is the strangest feeling – like when you have a toddler and you pick up a newborn. It is fantastic! (Now if only my kids still weighed 9 pounds!)
Considering my back is so damaged that I wouldn’t be able to use my old vacuum for months, a vacuum that is super light would be good enough for me.
But there are even more reasons I am giddy with vacuuming delight…
This tiny thing is a powerhouse, sucking up filth at the velocity of a cat 2 hurricane AND it has a hypo-allergenic filtration system that eliminates 99.9% of all allergen AND it even lays flat to fit under the bed or furniture. (Considering we are jammed with a home office and our family in a tiny townhouse, the fact that I can hide it so easily is super cool.)
Okay – I want to do a little vacuum dance right now. But, as I said, my back really hurts. So I am doing a happy dance on the inside.
(As moms, there is far too much vacuuming in our lives. Really! It is a never ending chore. So I am just counting my lucky stars that I get to use this fabulous vacuum while vacuuming again and again.)
If you haven’t seen the ads for this fabulous machine, check out the Oreck YouTube channel.
They have demonstrations, like this smoke chamber demo, that will have you dragging your husband to the computer and saying, “But Honey – look – all the smoke disappears! We really neeeed this!
Yes, it is infomercial style. But if you can move past that, it does make a darn good case for the vacuum.

What a wonderful giveaway. I really want to win this. I too hurt my back. For the past number of years my back tends to ‘go out’ on occasion, but last summer, during our family vacation was the worse. I guess with packing for the family, I over did it and sure enough my back went out. It was so bad, that while on vacation, my husband had to bring me to the er to get shots and medicine. After that trip, I was knocked out the whole week. With 2 young children….this was not the ideal vacation.

Oreck is #1
I understand the back deal. I have a 2 herniated discs in my back so vacuuming is always a chore I really dispise especially with my vacuum which was built in 1974 (5 years before I was even born)… not only do I get a nice work out lugging it up & down the stairs, but I have learned to be a vacuum repair person, because I have to fix it every time I use it. Oh and I have to vacuum every room twice because of the lack of suction.
!
Winning an Orek would be a dream come true.
Thanks for entering me
Boy, I really need this vacuum with all the stairs in my house.
Oreck is A1!
This would be great. Thanks for the chance.
GREAT SITE
I SO want to win this! My husband actually does the vacuuming because I had hurt my back a while ago. My back is fine, but I do not want to reinjure it by lugging around the vacuum – so, he still vacuums, which is a great thing…however, once in a while, I would like to do it while he is at work. So, this would be great to win! We have actually been talking about looking into this!
oreck is the best!
I so need a vacuum that is not duct tape together.
My mom has one of these and she absolutely loves it. I would love to have one! Thanks.
I have never tried an Oreck but they sure have a reliable name.
The only way to work my sweeper is to plug it in and to turn it off, unplug it. I really need this!
Wow, this is awesome. I’m in!
What a cool way to get rid of the household nasties!
Oreck wow heard they are the best!! Pick me I need one!
I would love to win this! We need a new vacuum badly!
Our Phantom Lightning broke down earlier this month and we need a new vaccum because their company went out of business. This one looks like a great replacement
Now this would really come in handy, and I need a new one too!
Wow! I am sorry to hear about your back. I understand what it’s like to have major back pain and little kidlets.
I would love a light weight vacum
Sure could use this.
My wife might use this one.
Yippee!! Pick me, Pick me!
Dori
Sounds like a great vacuum.

You don’t need to have a bad back to enjoy using one of these. I’ve actually used one, and believe me, it’s heaven on earth. So when I saw this giveaway, I knew THIS was the one for me. So that’s why you’re seeing my comment – I WANT THIS. Please? Thank you.

I’ve heard these are great sweepers!
I feel your pain, girl! My babies were all 10 lbs., and my back hurt constantly – lots of prayers for those critters to walk early! Now that they’re all walking (read: running, and fast, and away from me), it would be great to have a 9 lb. vaccuum to clear up crumbs left behind.

It is a funny story about my son and our gigantic vacuum cleaner. After seeing this awesome giveaway, I decided to embed my links to this giveaway in the post. It was the perfect ending!
Thanks for the chance to win!!

Vacuuming is one of the worst things that can hurt anyone’s lower back (many people have osteoarthritis in their lower backs as early as as age 30 and do not know it. Having a light weight and powerful vacuum like the Oreck XL Ultra, especially if you have children and/or pets, as I do, is imperative! Suffering from bulging disks in your lower back from vacuuming can seriously harm your back, your career and quality time with your family. It takes a long time to recover from herniated disks. Don’t risk it!
Oh, and no, I do not have one — mine is heavy and inefficient — maybe someday I will!
My vacuum just went out on me this week. I’d love to win this since I’m too broke to buy another one right now.
would love this prize
My back hurts too when I vacuum – - plus trying to get the darn heavy thing up and down stairs is a pain—so I would really like a nice light Oreck.
This one would get a great work out at my house!
Oreck’s are awesome! My church uses this brand of vaccum and we love it!!! I want one for my home.
I would SO love to win this, my vaccum is ready to call it “quits”.
AFTER 5 CATS AND THREE BROKEN VACUUMS, PICK ME, PLEASE!
I want this very, very, much
I don’t have a blog but will pass this on to my friends…I would love the opportunity to have a cleaner house without all of the back breaking work of hauling a much larger vacuum around.
Thank you for the giveaway! Good luck everyone.
This would be so great for me. Whole left side is swollen for over a year, of course 9 Drs and a gazillion expensive tests can’t tell me why, I can’t lift, push or bend without pain. This vaccum would be a blessing!! Did I mention I have two stairways and 2 dogs?!!?
Keeping my fingers crossed for this!
Golden Retriever..need I say more!? NEED being the most important word.
I would love a nice quality vacuum! It seems like you really have to spend the money these days otherwise you end up buy a vacuum every year. I think I am on my 4th or 5th one and we have owned our house for only 4 years! I remember my mom had one and it lasted about 20 years or more! Thanks for the giveaway!
please include me in this
this is a wonderful vacuum that will look beautiful in my home
I would love this!

My mother in law has one of these and when I spent my anniversary cleaning her house (no joke) I loved it!

THIS WOULD BE GREAT FOR MY HUBBY WHO HAS HAD 3 BACK SURGERIES AND JUST CAN’T USE THE HEAVIER VACS.

Winning an Oreck would be such a blessing!
Just a thought — have you considered prolotherapy
for your back? It’s awesome & it has worked
wonders for us — just google prolotherapy and lots will come up for you to research.
Praying healing and freedom from pain for you!
In CHRIST,
Barb

My mother-in-law came to visit for three HOURS today, passing through my State while on a trip. For the past three DAYS, I have been on my hands and knees picking up little bits and crumbs from the carpet and around the furniture legs. No vacuum = lots of pain.
It may take me three WEEKS to walk upright again. Maybe I can use the Oreck as a cane, if I win it!
I would be so happy to win this!
I could definitely use a new vacuum cleaner.

Enough said!!!!!!!
I wish I would have seen an ad for an Oreck, before I paid a ton for a Kirby that weighs a ton. I guess it makes sense, Pay a Ton and you can Haul a Ton.
We inherited vacuum cleaners when we moved into this
house, but they smell like the dogs that used to live here! I would love a new Oreck!

We brought one several years ago, had it tuned up this year, it was a very nice vacuum. We buried her today.
SWEEEET!
A really good vacuum and I might actually sweep!
Oh boy could I use a new vacuum cleaner!! I have 3 cats, one of which is a persian, and we heat the house mainly with a wood stove. So, I constantly have tons of cat hair and wood dust/splinters everywhere, and it kills my vacuums quick! The one I am using right now is on it’s last duct taped legs…
We are tired of buying sweepers that don’t last! This one would be great!
don’t blog, but I sent emails!
And I really need one like that!

Thanks for the awesome giveaway.
I would thank you, my dogs and all of their shedding hair would thank you…but most especially my husband who keeps sneezing because of that hair would thank you.
Oh I REALLY need this! I spent WEEKS researching vacuums last year (since we don’t have much cash and I wanted to spend it exactly right!) and bought a …….(I won’t say)….but it sucked. And not in a good way. It was a total waste of money. I now prefer to crouch down on my hands and knees and waddle around my house with a dust brush and pan. Much for effective than the machine I own, but killer on my body! We can’t afford to blow another few hundred on a new vacuum. Please, please, please. I hope, I hope, I hope.
I really need a new vaccum!
I would love to win this! Thanks for considering fo the prize! Good luck to all that enter!!!

I am definitely in need of a new vacuum, my current old one just doesn’t do it’s job anymore.
This would change my life, and the life of my sad carpet. Thanks!
I really need a new sweeper.
thank you so much.
Hello,
I would love this!
If I win this, I will give it to someone who needs it more than I do (and i really, really need it!).
I really need a new vacuum! My floors are filthy!
I was just thinking about how I need a new vacuum the other night…and I wished we’d invested in a nicer one when we got married…however, we took a commitment to Buy Nothing during the Lent season, so I can’t buy anything soon…but winning this would be perfect timing for me!
woohoo. I would love to have an oreck. Going to go post about it now. Thanks for the chance.
Please enter me.. I sure could use a new one!!
What a great prize! I emailed the link to my friends.

Very cool-I love the infomercial thing on Utube!
Would love to have one of these incredible machines! What a great giveaway! Would love to have the grand experience as would my hubby!
What a GREAT giveaway! Count me in. We could use a new vaccum!
Oh my, I would love, love, love to have an Oreck. I too have a back problem and this would help immensely. Thanks for offering it.
Never let anyone who says Pick ME win!
To replace my current 40 pound monstrosity would be heaven!
I could really use this, thanks!
Thankyou for hosting such a GREAT contest!! Winning an Oreck XL Ultra would be heavenly!
This would be a great gift for my Mom – she could really use a light weight vacuum cleaner! Oh, and I blogged about it: http://andallthejonesmen.blogspot.com/2008/02/9-lbs.html
New Puppy that loves to shred everything, new vacuum would great.

A light weight vacuum will really help once my little girl is born.
2 kids and 2 dogs. Need I say more?
My allergies are crying out for this prize!
I’ve wanted one of these for the longest time-I hope I win.
Cool! My back is killing me now that I’m pregnant again and this would be great – if for no other reason that carrying it up and down the stupid stairs…
Thanks a bunch!
Please pick me! I could really use it with my kids and the dogs. My old vacuum just broke another belt and I can’t find bags for it at the store anymore!

I hope I win
I RECENTLY LOST EVERYTHING AND IT WOULD BE AWSOME TO WIN ONE (ONE LAST THING ID HAVE TO REPLACE LOL)
What an awesome prize! I hope to win…..
I run a little home day-care so that I can stay home with my littel ones. It seems that I vacuum everyday! The wear and tear on my house unreal which has caused me to go through several vacuums. I would love to try something that can keep up with my household.
This rocks!
Yes, I want one!
Just what we need–A clean sweep
This is a great machine, a great prize, and I want it! Please….
I want one soooo badly!!! I blogged here:
http://jasonncaryn.blogspot.com/2008/02/cool-contests-of-week_07.html
This vacuum looks amazing! I would LOVE to have one. Our current vacuum is worthless and we desperately need a new one!
It would be nice to win this cool vacuum cleaner. I’m just waiting for my visa to join my husband in US and it would help make cleaning the house easy for me when I get there.
It would be great to have a vaccuum that does not break my back.
I need to win this so very badly…Mine died and on my fixxed income, replacing it is going to be tough..
BUT
I also wish each of you great luck as well…
Oh, I would love this vacuum! We really need a new one… ours is old and the bag part separates from the head about 3-4 times each time I vacuum…
We just bought our very first house and are settling in with the three little kiddos and one little on the way in April. This would be just perfect for our new diggs!!!!
Btwn the dogs and cats and babies, This Oreck would be my best New friend.
Anyways I need to buy a new vacuum . Lets see if I can win it here.
Thanks
i really need a new vacuum.
I really need a new vacuum and I’d love a oreck!
I’m in a wheel chair and this would be light and easy for me to use
4 cats plus two new babies! Does it pick up cat Hair?
I would LOVE this vacuum. My house might as well be a dog hair factory with our two big monsters! Between them and my messy hubby – I need this!
i would love this
this seems so nice I have herniated disks and most vacuums are so heavy they hurt my back this one sounds great
I have more vacuuming to do than I care to think about. Maybe if I won, I would once and for all commit the spelling of the word to memory – is it vaccuum or vacuum? or vaccum? no, not the last one for sure
I would love to have a vacuumm the would clean up after my German Sheppard. I wear my vacuumms out.
This Oreck XL needs a new home and I just happen to have a vacancy. And if I happen to win, would anyone be interested in buying an old crappy used vacuum that works sometimes when it feels like it….
I’m sorry you hurt yourself.
i want this
I feel lucky already. I could use this bad boy big time.

Great prize!
I dont have a mommy blog anymore, but i’ll be sure to spread the word.
i wouldnt mind winning this. we have a cat and found out that my daughter gets hives from it. and now there is cat hair all over the place. plus to catch those extra dust mites we cant see is also good! this would help a lot!
PICK ME
Wow wee! Nice vac!
what a great prize!!!!! my vaccuum just blew up!
One word…”PARROT”
I’ve never been able to afford a vacuum cleaner, much less an oreck
I recently moved out from my mom’s home and am “on my own” for the first time. I would love a vacuum but I also unfortunately cannot afford one.
I have dust on top of dust on top of dust and my vacuum is worthless and does not work anymore..I need this , I want this,
Crossing my finger and ties,
Blessings,
Melinda
Two kids, two dogs, a cat and a husband…as you can imagine, I could REALLY use this!
Help! My carpet really needs this vacuum.
Hope I win.
much in need of this here..
Definitely need a new vaccuum. Would appreciate the win.
This is a great contest, I would love this Oreck.
Thank you!
OK OK OK…I admit I am a closet dancer. My talents only come out when I vacuum. For an ol’ gal 49 and holding, I must say that I can bust a move. With the help of a vacuum humming and the music blaring.
What could possibly make this scene more worth while? That would be dancing with an Oreck Vacuum. Are you serious..9lbs.? Oreck would make those fancy turns smooooth. Smooth as a hot knife going through butter.
Thanks
I need a light vacuum
dog hair everywhere I really need this
OOOOOOOOO! My vacuum is 25 years old!! I could use more power!
Looks like there’s a lot of us in dire need!!
Thanks for the contest, you’re going to make someone really happy!
My husband has a herniated disc but still insists on helping around the house. This would be a great vacuum for us. Thanks for the contest.
good luck to everyone
Great prize
Thanks for the contest!
what a great vacuum – would love to win this!
I would love to win this fantastic vacuum! Would be great for my carpel and slipped disc. I’ve blogged about the contest and linked to you & Oreck. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to win such a use-able household tool!
Oreck XL Ultra offers everything I need to weigh so little. It hurts my backto vacuum and with this it would be a lot easier. Thanks for a chance to win one.
I could definitely use this.
Hey this would be cool, I don’t have a vacuum.
boy do I need this!
Our House desperately needs a new vacuum cleaner. Please help! LOL!
I would love to win this one! I’ve never been able to afford one of these and sure would like to have it!
totally need this
sure could use this.
I have three dogs, a cat, a 2 year old and a husband… I need this!!
I would like a second vacuum so that my wife doesn’t have to haul it up and down the stairs.
Oooo, I’d so so so love a new vacuum!
Cara
I DO NOT OWN A VACCUM CLEANER
Oh my god, would this ever be useful!
I need a need a vacuum
Grat Prize. I have heard alot of great things about this vacuum.
OK so my husband laughs at me constantly. I am always vacuuming. I swear I do it at least once a day. Even if it doesn’t need it I still vacume. I cannot go to bed if the floor needs vacuuming (or so I think) I know the floor is never as bad as I think it is but I cant help it. Well after all this vacuuming you can imagine just how wore out my vacume cleaner is so I am in dire straits for a new one so please, pick me!
my goodness. This is so nice!!
I don’t want to win a vacuum cleaner, especially not an Oreck. With five kids between the ages of 7 and 13, my house is understandably spotless. In fact, I’m insulted that I have to leave a comment. But just in case I won it, I could probably find a use for it.
I so need this!! my sweeper just died and I would love to have a good quality one like an Oreck.
I am surely ready for a new vacuum, this one looks great.
This would be awesome — I need another vacuum and this one is supposed to be soooooo good!!
To actually have a vacuum that does what it is suppose to do, an Oreck would be a dream come true!
WAY TO GO!
Please pick me. Have mercy, lol!
This is a fabulous giveaway!!
Thank you! I’ve always heard such good things about Oreck vacuums and would love to win!
Thanks, my shoulder doesn’t like to lift those other heavy vacs up the stairs.
Oreck is a must-have for households like mine, where we have pet hair EVERYWHERE and every one of us has an allergy!
This contest came along at just the right time, since my vacuum is on the way out! I’ve heard a lot of good things about Oreck brand, and would love to win one.
We have this in our store where I work and we have to use it everyday, it is the very best! Who wants to vacumn at work, but with this no problem!
I have the oreck carpet shampooer & love it. Would love this too, have wanted one for a long time. Thanks
We need a new vac so badly. I have heard this brand is good
My vacuum isn’t picking up the dirt in my house, and I need one that’s dependable. So please pick me!
seems like the perfect vacuum
this is by far the best ever!! light and great suction. my husband fought over his during our divorce!!! so i want/ need a new one. no other compares for price or power and the weightlessness is just a bonus.
Would love to have. Thank you.
now this is some thing I really need and would love to win
I would love to have a nice vacuum like this.
I don’t have a blog, but I’m spreading the word.
It sounds exciting to read about this Oreck; hope to have a chance to put my name in your drawing. Was diagnosed with leukemia/and lymphoma cancer and in remission. Have changed my eating habits, environmental habits; and product habits. Great blog.
Please?
I have posted about it on my blog and here’s my comment for my entry to win! THANKS!!!! *crosses fingers*
http://jessicaarizona.blogspot.com/2008/02/trying-to-win.html
We could use this sooo much! We have allergies at our house and a broken down sweeper!
I am running out of duct tape, I need (want) a new vacuum! I would love to be a proud owner of an Oreck XL Ultra!
I need a new vaccuum. Mine when you plug it in it just goes whether its on or off and it doesn’t suck up anything anymore. Help!
I would love a new vacuum cleaner! I just got married and could really use a new one!! Thank you for a great giveaway!!
I have two dead vacuums in my closet right now and am coveting that snazzy looking oreck. It would be a lifesaver to cleaning up after my three boys, husband, and lovely dog!
THanks ! Sign me up for the contest
Why I need a vacuum: I had a housekeeper that came once a month to help me tidy up and one day I got a message on my voice mail saying “sorry, I can’t work for you. Goodbye and good luck.” Later, someone else she does work for told me that she quit because my vacuum was terrible. Yikes- she could have at least warned me!
Anyways, she’s right. The vacuum stinks. Now that I am cleaning on my own permanently after my full time job (40 hours a week) and mommy job (I have a demanding one year old), I see the light. Would LOVE this helpful tool! Does it have an attachment to get near the corners of the wall?
I don’t have a blog, but will spread the word.
I love great vacuums – I have two cats and the hair and litter is neverending!
I’d love to be entered into the contest please! 4 kids are really hard on my vaccum which honestly is about to die on me!
My vacuum just died. This would be great.
My mom could really use the Orick XL Ultra. She is 73 and has a hard time with her heavy vaccum.
I have two 100lb German Shepards, two little boys and a husband. Enough said…… I need this!
THANKS FOR THE GREAT CONTEST, PLEASE ENTER ME!!!
Would love to have this wonderful vaccuum!
I guess everyone would like to win the best vacuum
around and some need it more than me but i want to win this one ’cause that’s the only way i’ll ever get it thanks for a great sweeps
Does the vacuum pick up drool? Cause that’s what I’m doing right now in antiipation.
9 pounds??? That’s amazing!
I could use something better than a broom for getting my rugs clean.
I really need this. I have too many woolies hiding under my bed and throughout my house!!
I really need this, please enter me, thanks!
great i need a new one
I need a lightweight vacuum! Thanks for the opportunity to win one!
This would be so nice, I’m sure it would be way better the the hunk of junk I currently have. I have heard a lot of great reviews on the oreck.
I so need another vacuum. Lightweight would certainly be a bonus. I have to have hubby lug my Dyson from downstairs to upstairs… and then upstairs to downstairs. It seems it’s always on the wrong floor when I need it!
I bought a cheap, lightweight one at Wally World, and it’s so noisy it’s ridiculous, and it doesn’t suck well.
Pick me please?
This would be great to clean up after my new Golden Retriever
Would love to win this…
thanks for the great giveaway! blogged ya:

Thanks!
Gals, I need this more than you know. With four dogs, horse hair and barn dirt being tracked in we could really use a great sweeper like this. Our vacuum is about as old as me. I beieve if it could talk it’d ask to be retired.

I would LOVE to win this vacuum! I love the commercials that Mr. Oreck does on TV and can’t believe how wonderful this vacuum must be. I have 3 kids and 2 dogs and am ALWAYS vacuuming.
I really need a good Vacuum,and as far as Vacuums goes, this is the top.Thank you
I would absolutely love to win an Oreck vacuum.
I WOULD LOVE A NEW VACUUM!
Oreck is indeed the best around. I worked at a children’s group home for over eight years. The kids went through commercial grade vacuums like there was no tomorrow. Every six months or so we were buying a new vacuum, until Oreck gave the junior boys cottage (ages 5 – 11) to try out. The vacuum was never out of commission, worked like a charm. It was light and easy to use for everyone.
This sold me! I bought one and have had it for 10 years – still runs great – no surprise, since it is not used by 12 munchkins twice to three times daily. Anyway, I want to give one to my sister , a mother of an infant, toddler, and dog – and could really use this mircle machine to clean up. Pick me!
for fun
I know that over 1,000 people have entered, but someone has to win, and why not me? So please enter me! My old Kirby vacuum is just not doing that great of a job on the dog hair, cat hair, and all the crumbs the kids leave behind.
could use it
Wow! What a prize!!
Please enter me. I am on my 4th vacume in two years. Id love to find something that really works.. Thanks for the contest !!!!!
with my kid’s cat, I could really use this
nice contest
I really could use a new vacuum!
mine!
make it mine!
This sounds too good to be true! Just to let you know how much I want this vacuum, I have actually watched the infomercial several times and sat and wished I could get one of these great machines for my mom. My mother is 91 years young and the 9 pound Oreck would be easier for her to use and perhaps she would suffer less with her allergies. She (and I) could have a spring cleaning extravaganza in her house! Thanks for giving us the chance to win.
i’ve been dreaming of a new vacuum for months!
every vacuum I have owned never seems to last. I think this one just might last a long time.
definately would love to win one of these !!!
nice
I need a new vacuum badly!
Our old vac is losing it, so we’re in the market for a new one. A quality vac like this would be fantastic!

Wow. I would love this. We always only have the cheap ones that you know are on their death bed by the time you get them out of the store.
I’m desperate for a new vac and always wanted to have an Orleck – my budget didn’t seem to understand.
Time for a new Oreck for me.
We used these at a daycare that I was working at before my child was born. They are amazing and do wonders with allergens! I’d LOVE it!
i would love a light vacuum
I could really use Oreck, actually any kind would do i am tired of picking all the dirt off the floor with my fingers…JK!
I’ve posted about this giveaway on my blog. Would sure come in handy in our home…we could even retire the bumbling ole Shop Vac…ahh..dare to dream…!
Blessings,
Laurie
I need a new sweeper
wowoweewa
THIS WILL HELP WITH CAT HAIR
I would probably keel over from constant cleaning if I got this! I would never want to stop!
At seven months pregnant..I could deal with a 9 pound vacuum! My two little boys keep me busy with the dirt tracked in, too. Sounds like a great product!
They are so light!
We could really use a vacuum!

It would be great to win this! Thanks for the contest.
I need a vacuum cleaner.
Pick me, Pick me!!!
This would be awesome!!! 
We could use a new vaccuum!!
I have three pets and one pest (my hubby)! I need this vac!!
So glad I found this (at the last minute!!). This would be awesome for all of those little crumbs that my 20 mth old scatters through out the house. My mom has an Oreck and LOVES it!
I would LOVE to win!
I would love to carpet my (upstairs) bedroom, but worry about lugging up my heavy vacuum. This would be perfect!
Lemme tell ya, if anybody needs an OreckXL, it’s me!!
My husband of 23yrs works for the water/wastewater maintenance department. He installs and repairs water and *blech face* wastewater lines for the entire city. He inspects new installations, he is creating new water line maps.
He does all these things in mud and dirt and grit. Thankfully, his company provides a uniform service, but those uniforms reside in my house in all their muddy-dirty splendor before they’re taken to be laundered.
That’s not even counting the boots. Thick-mud-caked boots with gravels ‘sprinkled’ throughout.
We don’t have a porch or any sort of “mud room” where he can keep this dirt before he comes into the house. So it’s all like right in my kitchen doorway and the utility doorway immediately to the left. GAH!!!!!
I think I’m the most frustrated woman sometimes. I mean, frustrated about MUD and DIRT!!!

Dirty dirty rug
Got a dirty dirty rug
Oh I gotta get a vacuum
For my dirty dirty rug
My little guy thinks it’s fun to pick up the tufts of cat hair and taste them. My vacuum doesn’t do the job. This one would!
I have had the worst luck with vacuums – they seem to have a life span of about a year. I would love the opportunity to give a good quality vacuum like this one a try!
love this vac!
I have seven cats, and a husband with dust allergies. Some of the cats have allergies, too. So we could really use a powerful vacuum that filters allergens. I think it would make us all a lot happier and healthier.
I should mention that I posted this on my blog, too.

Would love to have this. Thanks!
I want this!
Our old vacuum just recently passed on. We could really use it.
Every one leaves a comment but no one says any thing about the thought you put into this vacuum, which is why you have such a great product.
This would be a great replacement for our ten year old vacuum that my husband and I bought as a floor model when we were first married.
i want it
Oreck is the best. I could really use this.
I can’t believe that powerhouse is packed into a lightweight package like that. Awesome!
Great prize!! I’ve been wanting one of these!!
I definitely need one of these! I have 5 kids under the age of 10 and a new dog.
I would love to win a new vacuum!!
Need a Vacuum that is good and is easy to use
I’d love a vacuum that’s not held together with duct tape.
My old vacuum is tattered and old. I could really use a new one ant the OreckXL looks really fine.
When my kids won’t pick up their toys I plug in the vacuum and pretend I will suck up their toys. Even if the toys are too big, they start scrambling to get them picked up, it’s funny, and fun too. (No, it doesn’t “upset” them, I’m really a nice mom)…I’ve got a living room floor that would be a real test for this vacuum, heard its really good.
Sweet Mother of All Contests!
What a fun idea, an amazing prize, and a great way to discover new blogs. Thanks, Shannon.

Thank you for this generous giveaway.
I’ve been wanting an Oreck forever because my kid has asthma and allergies, so removing dust and particles from the air is important.
The superior suction is a big draw because I don’t want anything floating in the air that might aggravate my little one’s respiratory problems.
