Dead"Let's Go!" get a product that really works. 
Anyone else notice the 'corner clean-up' at about 28 seconds in? Just as dirty as when she started. Impressive!
And...oh - that WalMart 'Matching Room + handy-dandy Capri Sweaties' outfit?
"Let's go!"...anywhere BUT THERE!
And then there's the matter of that furry lil'mop you already had (jumps off the couch at 8 seconds in). WHY did you waste perfectly good beer dollars on a 'Dirt Devil' when all you needed was a decent glove or a stick and 'Fluffy's' assistance?
Dead..and, oh yea! That background electro-muzak REALLY sucks.

Why are her floors so evenly covered in that layer of dirt or whatever it's supposed to be?  Floor dirt doesn't work that way.  I have a white ceramic kitchen floor like hers, and the dirt on my floor is never like that.  It's bits and pieces of leaves and cat food, along with some splatters near the stove, and maybe a stray chunk of chopped celery and a crushed Reese's Puff or two.

I'm planning to clean my floors.

Someday.

Might even clean my windows, too.

Someday.

LOLThe Inquiring Mindless NEED TO KNOW!
  • Will you wear blue capris, please?
  • Will you post photos?
  • Will you submit to 'The Devil', or succumb to 'Fluffy's apparent offer for assistance', and only use mild soapy water as you clean the homefront with her delecate fur? May I suggest only using 'Dove' soap?

As a Time Warner customer, my biggest gripe with this spot is the sound.. that "cutting out" techno whatever thing that makes me think that, as it often does, my cable is cutting out.

You, Thor, and I as single males with no adult supervision are not anywhere near OC about these insignificant things unless they attract insects or other vermin. My windows were cleaned on the outside a couple of months ago to get the bird sh*t off. My mini blinds are closed and there is nothing important to look at so insides can wait. Possibly forever.

I keep my kitchen picture window miniblinds closed.  Recently, I looked behind them.  I decided not to mess with it.  Too much stuff going on there.  LOL

You guys are pigs.
You should be made to wear a bue capri sweaty outfit and forced to clean your places (while videoed).
We're waiting.

I just wiped off the counter with a wet cloth....They covered the hard floors with carpeting in the kitchen and dining room.  I'm gonna change it back, eventually.

ConfusedIfyou have the 'Spray & Mop', guess you need the 'Vac & Dust'. Think you get a different colored capri sweaty-suit and a dog to go with it. My favorite part of the commercial would be the 'kibbles & bits' floatin in the clear vaccum container - reminds me of those childrens' 'corn popper' push toys with the little colored balls.
Confused! Now the 'Dash Vac & Dust'? There's that pair of 'Sunday-Go-To-Picnic' yellow Capri sweaties! I don't think she should have worn them - if her walls are sticky enough for her to walk up, she should have plastic on the floor and a bucket + wall mop ready.

I can't believe nobody else mentioned this. It's one of those things that makes my skin crawl! At first I though it was just me, but I asked my wife the other day when it came on and she echoed the same feelings. I now change the channel as soon it come on.

^^^I am certain it isn't your cable provider distorting the muzak - the "artists" probably intentionally recorded it that way. 
Once upon a time we had a Dirt Devil Hand-Vac...it became garbage can fodder real fast. Their products SUCK, but they don't VAC.  
I've been looking for a youtube video for the cut, but not yet found - you could have had THIS instead:

The song sounds like it's being played backwards.
 
Here it is:
 
 
In the site below, it's described as "Twisted, electro beats with glitched vocals & phat club synth lines".  What the hell?

I get the sound on Directv. It's VERY VERY irritating! It IS a "new sound". Frankly I'd rather listen to my dentist's drill.
