I am used to checking reviews before I deciding to buy things. Most of my shopping experiences are good. Recently the most satisfied thing I bought is a electric feet pail, especially in cold weathers, it can make me feel warm and sleep well. When it comes to a bad shopping experince, I am so angry about the bad quality of Dyson vacuum cleaner. As most of the reviews said that it is the must to buy thing for a pet family. I’ve just bought it for half year, and the cleaning lady uses it once a week, it brock out 2 weeks ago. I had to sent it back and it was still under repair.
