Refurbished Dyson DC35 Multi floor Cordless Vacuum Cleaner for $199.99

cheapskatLeave a comment

dysondc35cordlessvacuumcleanerAmazon has the e refurbished Dyson DC35 Slim Multi Floor Vacuum for $199.99 with Free Shipping for limited time.

The Dyson DC35 Multi floor Reconditioned is a Dyson Digital Slim cordless vacuum cleaner for every floor type. It features a detachable long-reach wand and a motorized cleaner head. Powered by the Dyson digital motor, the most power-efficient motor ever developed for a cordless vacuum, the DC35 is the most powerful cordless vacuum cleaner.

The DC35 features Root Cyclone technology, in which powerful centrifugal forces spin dust and dirt out of the air and into the bin, with no loss of suction. This cordless vacuum is powered by the Dyson digital motor, which operates up to three times faster than conventional motors.

Dyson DC35 Reconditioned features a conductive carbon fiber brush bar. This brush bar contains rows of ultra-fine carbon fiber filaments engineered to remove fine dust from hard floors, as well as stiff bristles designed for intensive cleaning on rugs and carpets. The velour bumper on the front of the floor tool protects furniture and walls from bumps and bruises, and an independent motor in the cleaner head spins the brush bar 1,500 times a minute for maximum pickup.

DC35 has a 22.2 volt lithium-ion battery that doesn’t fade during use, so power stays strong as you clean. Additionally, this lithium-ion battery recharges up to three times faster than others. Dual power mode allows for 15 minutes of high constant suction for regular cleaning, (13 minutes with the motorized floor tool attachment), or 6 minutes on MAX power for more difficult cleaning tasks.

The Dyson DC35 Reconditioned has a detachable long-reach wand made of lightweight aluminium, allowing the user to reach up high, down low and into awkward spaces for all around cleaning capability. The clear bin allows you to see when it’s full, and is easily emptied with the push of a button minimizing contact with dirt and allergens.

The Dyson DC35 Reconditioned cordless vacuum cleaner includes a combination accessory tool which converts to a brush tool for dusting, and a crevice tool for cleaning tight and narrow spaces. The included docking station can be used for recharging and storing the machine and attachments when not in use. DC35 Reconditioned comes with a 6-month parts and labor warranty.

Final Fantasy or Final Fantasy II on the iPhone / iPod Touch / iPad for $3.99

cheapskatLeave a comment

Final FantasySQUARE ENIX Co., LTD. has Final Fantasy or Final Fantasy II (iTunes Link) for the iPhone and iPod Touch in the iTunes App Store for $3.99 (8.99 – 5 instant savings) for limited time.

Initially released in Japan in 1987, the original FINAL FANTASY amazed audiences with its rich story and stunning graphics.

Players guide the Warriors of Light as they set out on a quest to restore the crystals to their former luster. Its side view battles, choice and promotion of character classes, and sprawling world explored with fantastic vehicles quickly became standards of the series. This game set the stage for all FINAL FANTASY games to come.

This edition also contains the bonus dungeons added to later editions of the game–the Soul of Chaos and the Labyrinth of Time.

FINAL FANTASY II features the bitter and beautiful tale of four war-orphaned heroes who become embroiled in the conflict between the hostile Empire of Palamecia and the rebel resistance. Eschewing conventional leveling for a proficiency system that allows players to tailor their characters’ growth, and incorporating a key term memory system that makes dialogue integral to gameplay, this game sparked the spirit of innovation for which the series has become known.

This edition also contains the bonus dungeons added to later editions of the game–the Soul of Rebirth and the Arcane Labyrinth.

First released in 1990, Final Fantasy III was the first title in the Final Fantasy series to become a million-seller, establishing once and for all that Square Enix’s classic RPG saga was here to stay.
The full 3D remake released in 2006 duplicated the original’s success, selling over a million copies worldwide.

Final Fantasy III was a hallmark of innovation for the entire series, from the job system that lets characters change classes at any time to the ability to summon powerful creatures such as Shiva and Bahamut.

When darkness falls and the land is robbed of light, four youths are chosen by the crystals to set forth on a journey to save the world.
