Dyson vacuum & other vacuum related videos & photos...
Original Message   Nov 22, 2007 12:23 am
1)  Nov 21, 2007 James Dyson t.v. commercial parodied on Saturday Night Live.


2)  March 17, 2009:  While many independent vacuum dealers bad-mouth, lie of and/or dismiss James Dyson and his teams contributions, many others champion the man.  Watch James Dyson in his element - in his Malmesbury Headquarters.  NBC’s “Today Show”  http://video.msn.com/video.aspx?mkt=en-us&vid=71fa9222-10d2-413c-bf31-0007895697ac


2)  Older video news:  I could not resist...  A Hottie car-news chick mentions the rumor of Dyson working with car makers, and Oreck gets a mention too (funny).

HOOVER is a best seller and ORECK has the lightweight and hotel motel market locked down.  They aren't depending on you.  Dyson is.  With supposedly 9-10 percent of the vacuum market in units, you let them down.  Bought a bagged Royal for $299 and sold off your DC07.  Nice twist.

And Dyson is not depending on you.  Final time.  I will buy another Dyson. At my convenience.

The fact that you use an Oreck as opposed to Hoover (which you sold) speaks how much you lied to past customers.

Hello HARDSELL:  You'll own another dyson if and when someone gives you one. You won't buy a new one.  Not after selling the DC07 several years into using it; buying and returning a new dyson DC14 and then buying and now owning a Royal Eminence for $299 [bagged] instead.  You're letting dyson down.  Won't get a new one that way.

HOOVER WT and ORECK XL uprights are tops in their class and very affordable.  I recommend both for rug/carpet cleaning.  The only caveat for ORECK is on very high shag carpeting.  Better to buy a HOOVER/ brand model with a rug height adjustment.  That leaves your free brand out too.

Hello DC18:

Thank you.  Dyson did the same with me here in the USA.  Emailed back quickly and said it would pass my recommendations/suggestions to engineers for future consideration [height adjustment for carpets]. 

Despite the critical comments on the shortcomings of the HELPLINE support and inherent design weaknesses of the DC07 pink with respect to its difficulty in use over my carpets, the dyson email was very gracious. 

Carmine D.



Hi Carmine D

Good to see you passed on suggestions to Dyson.

Too bad that Dyson outclasses them.

What about those years of selling hoover and telling customers that they were better than Oreck/   Is there any dout that you have no credibility?

Hello HARDSELL:

I was a HOOVER, EUREKA, and Panasonic warranty dealer concurrently.  And Westinghouse for a brief period in the late 50's.  I sold all rebuilts including ORECK.  Repaired all makes, including ORECK.  I mentioned before that ORECK customers were among the most pleased with them and rarely ever were ORECK-s traded in.  Even to the door to door vacuum sellers like Air-Way, Kirby, and Electrolux. 

My dear Wife was the force behind buying the ORECK.  She always liked it and wanted one.  So I bought one, used it, and was so impressed I bought 3 more and gifted them to family and friends.  I use my ORECK daily.  Won't use any other on my rugs and floors.  ORECK is a worthy brand, good preformer, and a decent price.  Plus its made in the USA by Americans.  Win-win.

Pure genius.  A pro for 40 years who did not know the virtues of an Oreck.  Did your wife also pick out the Explorer?

HARDSELL:

I recall you sold a Dodge Charger 40 years ago and then a dyson recently although you regret both actions and are kicking yourself for doing so.

How did you know my dear Wife is a genius.  That's why she married me.  She picked the Ford Escape, not Explorer.

It's both HARDSELL: Fair to middlin performance at the highest vacuum prices and consumers' cutting back.  Put the two together and dyson goes to the mat with a one-two knock out punch. 

You're living proof of it.  A former dyson buyer and user.  Rave over it.  Won't buy another dyson now.  Returned the one you did buy because you were unhappy with it.  Went with a $299 Royal Eminence instead.  BAGGED no less!  Talk about doing the twist!

I would like to pose a question to the DYSONITES,

Why do you feel that DYSON has revised their filter cleaning schedule,

1 could it be that the new level3,system is not as good as the old roots system.

2 could the brush roll change in the newer dc series machines really picked up the cleaning effectiveness,and the filtration system cant keep up with it/

3 or the dyson engineers are now thinking about going bagged.

4 or it was just bull$hit from the beginning.

your replys are welcome...........

# 4.  I am of course referring to you and Carmine about the bullsheet.

We already know that Dyson put you and Carmine in a pinch therefore all the hate.
