Thanks Ace.

Have you signed up for HSN's product message alerts?  Although they do not inform if a launch is pending.  I'm not looking forward to Dyson not touting is "worlds best" vacuum filtration.  An early reviewer (editor/mag contributor) wrote and said he was baffled as to $700-$800 price tag (DC22).  Having NIB-like or keeping 100% suction strength (No Loss of Suction) and no filter washing for 4-7 years (under normal use) is a HUGE BREAKTHRU and is something peoplw want to buy.  Only Dyson is not telling them.

I suspect the price will come down after a year.  When the DC23 was launched, it was sold for $749.  Now the MSRP is $599.  I suspect after a year, the DC22 will be closer to the $600 range.  AAAvacs.com is selling the DC22 Turbinehead/Motorhead for $499/$599, respectively.

I have been using a DC22 for a week now, and it really seems to eliminate any dust bypass , even though a little bit of sands gets through.  Very little dust bypasses the core separator, which tells me it's doing almost all of the particle separating.   

I told you so: the DC22 DDM cann is the best kept secret in the vacuum industry in 2009.  Not a waord about it from anyone in the industry.  It's done a Claude Rains since its launch at the VDTA in Feb 2009.  Invisible!

If little bits of sand get through, more can/will.  As pointed out, if the cyclones are overwhelmed [read have to over work themselves to separate more than average loads of input], the filtration effectiveness falls off.

Is this the DC22 you're referring to?  Our unit is clearly labeled that both filters require washing every 3 months.

The DDM DC22 label reads wash every 3 months - while on high speed?  Hmmm...

The pre-launch information I received simply echoed what was previously said at the Japanese launch, it’s packaging and what is advertised online at Dyson Japan.

Hi Dib,

Canadian box shows no mention of filter cleaning intervals.  The stickers on the unit and the included instruction manual both state both filters be cleaned every 3 months under normal conditions, more frequently if being used for fine dust.  This said, having run the machine around the store for the past couple weeks the filters are still spotless.

Dusty, you have the DC22? Is there anyway that you can upload some videos of the 22 on Youtube?

Yep, we've had it for a few weeks now.  Nice little unit.  Have to say sorry on the videos, don't have anything to shoot with.
