Dirt Devil Purpose for pets M140000 Review

The Dirt Devil Purpose for Pets M140000 from Wal-Mart seemed like a good deal - only $79.99, picks up pet hair, no bags, just use a filter...After using it 2 times, the brush roll melted on the ends and the vacuum won't work anymore. I thought - OK, defective roll, so I bought another one online for $20, in the meantime, I got a hand-vac for about $20 to clean things up while I was waiting for the part to arrive (we are up to $109.99 now).

The part arrived, and I replaced the old brush roll with the new one. Well - after only 1 use it stopped working again - this time the brush roll melted on the ends, the belt tore up, and the part leading to the belt melted in the middle. OMG! Who makes these things? I am seriously considering making it a purpose of my life to educate every single consumer on how useless, impractical, and a simple waste of money it is to own one of these pieces of a you know what.
