Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Carmine, did you happen to Google the company in question?  I did, and here is the first result that came up for a search of "brandnamerewards.com LLC":

Let me quote directly from the user-submitted report:

"Only losers and suckers will sign up to give them access to their email address to receive tons of spams from con artists and scammers from across the globe."

And you thought they ACTUALLY wanted your opinion?  What a riot.

motorhead:  aka Tom Gasko, dualcyclone:

I was wondering if perhaps the full moon last night brought out your venomous invective.  But I thought to myself: NO.  That's not the reason.  The reason is no matter how you try to deny yourself with new names and swearing off your true identity, your posts and ego give you away.  As they did here.

Sooner or later you revert back to the true Tom Gasko form.  Just so happens this time it coincides with a full moon. 

Thanks Tom.

Your epitaph should read:  A coward to the end.

Carmine, again you are wrong.  I do not post from the same computer Tom uses, nor do I live in the state of Missouri.  Nice try though.

Out of everyone I have met who is interested in vacuum cleaners, however, Tom has by far the widest range of knowledge, from old to new.  One of the other things I like about Tom is his biting sense of humor.  I hope a little bit of it has rubbed off on me

Hello Tom Gasko:

Thanks for clearing up the mystery of your friend and mentor that you most admire.  Why am I not the least bit suprised that they are both you!  

PS:  You might want to go back to a post here in March where you said you didn't even know who Tom, the dyson obcessed fanatic, is.   Since then you've had an epiphany and found yourself again.

Hello DIB:

Hence my reason for the question on which dyson claims to be the first recycled vacuum: the DC02/DC03?

Dyson helping and encouraging others to think outside of the box is my point for this link above.  I did not know this (book?) existed.  If anyone doubts James' sincerely and resolve in helping and encouraging kids and others to think outside of the box so to hopefully make a big impact on society, need only to look at his body of work (books, lectures, etc).        DIB

 Carmine, personally I do not care which model vac he used as a recycled vacuum.  Dates (pre-dating all others) and/or doing it first is what I look at when determining pioneers.        DIB

Hello DIB:

I agree in theory [thinking outside the box] to a degree. 

What I disagree with and criticize dyson for is the reckless abandon of discounting the "tried and tested designs" [to quote Trilobite's recent words].  These are the features that define the vacuum industry's progress in the last 50 years.  For example: Brushrolls and rug height adjustments. 

For years dyson fans [Mr. Gasko included and still now] argued that the dyson brush bars in the DC07 and DC14 were just as good as the US industry standard brush rolls.  It is an asinine argument.   Some, like Tom, still poudly maintain this position.  Although dyson has revamped and improved the brush roll designs on all its vacuums after the DC07/DC14.  Why?  Obviously to meet and compete with US vacuum industry standards/performance.  Dah!

You need a practical approach of creativity and conformity to that which works the best.  You want to improve what is already agreed works the best.

Hi,

I have posted this many times on this forum.  I believe James is his own worst enemy at times.  I wonder is his generals and alike are afraid to say "no, this does not work or work better than what the competitors have."  I absolutely hate the wand, hose and power head on my DC21, I'll go as far as saying it is stupid.  Dyson simply needs to copy what is working on other vacuums.  Do you think the Eureka Boss (CR's #1 pic) has some sort of secret sauce or proprietary invention in it's brush roll or nozzle design?  Start there, Dyson should copy this and not feel guilty, after all these old inventions are in the public domain.        DIB
