Oh, Hi. I'm Giving Away This AWESOME Vacuum..

Loyals, we all know that there are lot's of things out there that excite me. Tasty things, sparkly things, baby things, just to name a few. But do you know what really excites me? Vacuum lines. As in, freshly vacuumed lines on a carpet. Go on, laugh if you will.  

Never in my whole entire 28 years of life would I think I would ever, ever be this excited let alone in love with a vacuum cleaner. Oh, but Loyals. I am. I am in love with my Oreck Forever Series Gold Vacuum Cleaner. 

I'm sure I gave the Husband quite the scare as I began counting down the days until this beauty arrived on our doorstep. Here, sit for a minute, while I profess my love for a vacuum.

First off, there is something to be said for the Forever Series' long cord. Almost immediately I noticed how long the Oreck's cord was and how I could easily maneuver between the kitchen, living room, family room and foyer without ever unplugging and plugging the cord back into the wall. 

As a Mom to a toddler who has very little time to spare when it comes to domestic chores of this nature, I need to be able to cover a large amount of domestic acreage in the least amount of time possible and the easy maneuverability and lightweight efficiency of this vacuum let's me do it all. We're talking 35 feet of vacuuming freedom, Loyals. 


My previous vacuum was a beast of a machine and I would dread the time when I would have to haul that sucker up and down the stairs. With the Oreck Forever Series Gold, I can easily transport this vacuum cleaner down to the basement and up to the bedrooms without huffing and puffing and I can do so while carrying my 16 month old toddler on one hip. After all, it weighs just around a mere 9lbs. Amazing.

This vacuum truly makes the daily life of this Mama 100x easier and I actually find myself looking forward to vacuuming. So much so that I store my delicious new vacuum right in the entryway off of the garage. Sleek and skinny, it doesn't take up much space and is available for me to grab at the drop of a hat- which in this Mama's case is typically after every Toddler meal! 

Pine needles, Sheepie hairballs, Ritz cracker, Spanish rice and even the beads to one of my favorite necklaces was no match for this vacuum. It has truly become this Mama's new best friend. 

Want to know something else really cool about this vacuum, Loyals? See those little scrubby bristles protruding from the side of the vacuum? They do a fabulous job at helping suck up all the dust and Sheepie hair that finds its way into the cracks and crevices along my baseboards. No longer do I have to whip out the dust buster and bend over, my back screaming as I creep along the baseboards of my downstairs living area- those little scrubby bristles are an absolute god send. 

Some other really great features of this Oreck? The twin LED headlights make vacuuming beneath the couches and other large pieces of furniture a breeze. Not to mention the dual speed power switch is great for switching between carpet and hardwood floors. 

On the rare occasion that I don't feel like pulling out my new Oreck? Well, Loyals. I was also given the opportunity to try out the Ultimate Hand Vacuum. I cannot even begin to tell you how much I adore this thing. 

Easily worn throughout the house and with a myriad of attachment accessories, this handy little Ultimate Hand Vacuum has helped make those extra hard to reach spaces so much easier to clean. Beneath the oven and the dishwasher? Check. 

The floor vents and crown molding? Check. Window sills and the crevices along the stairs? Easy peasy. 

It goes without saying that this is also Carter's favorite vacuum. He loves to help carry throughout the house- and the fact that my 16 month old toddler can carry it? Is simply a testament to the lightweight and easy to use nature of this vacuum. 

Last but not least, I will admit- this was my first experience using an upright bag vacuum. In the past, every vacuum I've used has been a bag-less one. I wasn't quite sure how I'd feel about having to change out the bags every so often but Loyals, it is so incredibly easy with this Oreck. 

One of my favorite features of this bag system? The HEPA inner bag. This feature is great for homes with a little bit of extra dust, particles and other allergens. It's absolutely a great fit for us and the 110lb lovable fluff ball we call Sheepie! 

The Saniseal System automatically seals shut, locking dirt in the disposable filter bad and ensuring a strong seal. This makes bag changes an absolute breese and I know I can breathe easy while doing so. 

So, Loyals. Are you ready to enter for YOUR chance to win your very own Oreck Forever Series Gold Vacuum? The fine and friendly folks at Oreck have graciously agreed to give away one vacuum to ONE lucky Loyal! Oh, happy day!
