This is the second time in a few months the vacuum cleaner belt broke....

I went to the vacuum cleaner shop and I bought both belts (one for the self propelled part) figured if I have to change one might as well do both.

well the first time it took about three hours and a lot of @@##** words but I got them changed..... we don't have any close neighbors and the dogs ran outside..LOL

Last week the belt broke again....so my husband stopped they said oh, well we have a heavier duty belt..it is much better.....

AARGGGH why did they not give me that choice the first time???? for a couple more dollars..........

I have another vacuum to use (but this is "my favorite)

Well this am I changed the belt AGAIN this time only took about 45 minutes.. and probably more screws taken out than needed (was very careful to put them in little piles) and hoped I could remember where they went.....and while I had it apart cleaned out inside underneath....

well I got all the screws back..no left over ones (relief) and plugged it in and held my breath and turned it one.........YEAH

I have just vacuumed the house...and it is working as good as new......
