Yes, literally bites the dust.
This one had been around for a while, but was beginning to act a little funny. It still sucked, but that is what is desired in these cases. However it had been getting louder and louder lately, and that is not desirable.
Then, the other day, as Young Daughter was cleaning her room (finally), it refused to respond.
And so, The Fuzz and His Sweetie went over to the Home Improvement Store. (It seems they can't stay away from that place these days.) There they found all kinds of High Dollar Machines but none that seemed to fill the requirements at a realistic price. They have a definite preference for these "canister" models, which I guess aren't real popular with the Home Improvement Crowd.
This left them with the unpleasant option of a trip to Wally World. But His Sweetie reminded The Fuzz, that the K-mart was still there, right across the street from Wally World.
And that's where they found this fine little machine.
In other news, the "Young'uns" made it back from that Tropical Paradise. Unfortunately, their *luggage didn't.
The Fuzz and His Sweetie picked them up at the Airport in the Big City, and took them and that Barkley Dog home. I "Borrowed" this shot from one of them just for this blog, so we all could enjoy a bit of that Tropical Paradise.
*Just for the record, the luggage arrived today.

glad everyone is home safe. having pets seems to put some strain on cleaning machines. we watched PBS's 1900 house the other day and they had a VERY old vacuum cleaner that really didn't do more than make lots of dust fly around... yours looks a little better at doing its job.
