Hi M00seUK

So the DC22 that was launched in Japan is launched in the UK!  It also confirms it is a small model like the DC12 as it was thought when the Dc22 was launched in Japan it was bigger than the DC12!

No mention of the DDM in the UK versions!?

DC18

Great news, thanks for posting.  I agree with DC18 on the size; I thought it was going to be a large machine too, in the pictures it appeared larger than the DC21 (which is the same size as the other Dyson canisters but still small compared to other brands of "full-size" canister).

I can only hope this model (or a variation of it, DC23 perhaps?) will make it to the 'States, with the DDM of course.

It's listed on the USA site also.

Appears so, for both models. They feature core separation, which perhaps adds slightly to the unit size.
It's a good price point, It's 10 GBP less than the larger DC20. Perhaps Dyson thought that including the DDM would be a tough sell, if it made 'Baby' more expensive. Although it would have been nice to have a DDM option, like to turn the brushbar in the Animal model. Maybe they want to keep current production for the Airblade for the moment?

Sorry, you're correct. Dyson.com was directing me to Dyson.co.uk

True adding the DDM would push up price point.  Should sell well if slightly less than the DC20, the Animal DC22 is not a bad price either!

Well, I'm certainly stumping down my cash for 'Baby' when it hits the shops. I live in the city in a place with wood floors throughout and something like this is certainly needed, especially in the new builds - they have next to no storage space to keep a vacuum.

You will have to let us know what the Dyson baby is like M00seUK when you get one!

Moose, Thank You!

Dyson Baby:  I have seen the DC12 called Baby on an Asian blog but I thought it was nickname people gave their DC12.  A search shows Dyson registered the DC12 Baby here.  The DC22 Baby-Animal lists a turbine nozzle, but the hose looks to be electrified.        DIB
