Now in fairness I should tell you that I do not personally own an Oreck vacuum cleaner.
But Sister does. And Mama does. And if you were sitting around with all of us at any family gathering, at some point you would get to listen to Sister and Mama talk about the Oreck vacuum cleaner because OH! it’s so light! and OH! it just cleans like you wouldn’t believe! and OH! I don’t know what I ever did without it!
Suffice it to say that they are fans.
In fact, when Oreck contacted me about hosting a giveaway for the internets, I happened to be sitting in Mama and Daddy’s living room. I said, “Hey, Mama – Oreck wants to give away a vacuum on my blog,” and no kidding, she practically jumped out of her chair and said, “Well, you’d be CRAZY if you didn’t!”
I guess it has escaped my mama’s attention that I am crazy, you know, REGARDLESS.
Oh, a mother’s love. It is blind.
Anyway, here’s a little information about the Oreck XL Ultra Vacuum Cleaner:
The Oreck XL Ultra makes cleaning a breeze – the vacuum weighs just 9 lbs. and lays flat to fit under beds and furniture, yet has the suction velocity of a category 2 hurricane to eliminate dust, dander, pet hair, pollen and even dust mites in a snap. A hypo-allergenic filtration system eliminates 99.9% of all allergens as you clean, unlike other bagless vacuums, which spread dirt and dust as you empty the canister. Oreck is so confident in the quality of the Oreck XL Ultra that they offer a 10-year warranty plus 10 annual free tune-ups to ensure that your Oreck will last and last!
And by the way, the Oreck XL retails for $499.95.
So you would probably be excited if you won.

Have fun, y’all!
This giveaway is now closed.
I used to work as a maid, and we used Oreck vacuums. They were so awesome! My stairs would actually benefit the most from this great lightweight vac!
TV room
I could most certainly use the Oreck vacuum in my kids living room!
I got new carpet this past summer so I really need a Oreck vacuum!
Oh my, there is no way of choosing one room that would benefit from the Oreck. All rooms with benefit.
We have 6 year old twins (not the cleanest little people) and then being the bright people we are, we decided to get a puppy, (a very LARGE puppy, that chews its toys to shreds).
So if add to the twins and puppy that almost all of my house is carpet, (what was I thinking), you can clearly see that all rooms in our house would benefit big time from the Oreck.
