Hello Mole:

I was wondering the same on both:  What happened to the dyson baby cann and what is the target market?

Having looked at the DC22 (and the DC23) in a shop and picked it up etc... this is heavier (feels heavier) than the DC05 canister (now discontinued in the UK!) and looks bigger too!  I wonder if the DC22 is bigger than the DC12 Japan model!  I think the DC05 should have been named 'Dyson Baby'!  Probably due to the bigger bin and cyclone top with root and core technology makes the DC22 look bigger!  Still a very small compact powerful machine!

DC18,

Hello, I hear the DC22 is a middle size between the DC05 and DC21.  The DC05 is small sitting next to a DC21 (by about 20-30% smaller).  I believe the DC12 would of made a great dealer exclusive and should have been here in the U.S. long ago.  In terms of size-to-power technologies it has no competitors (that I am aware of), it is radically unique and could not be undercut by retailers.  Removing the phone-home capabilities may or may not be necessary for it to be a success here.  Sell it as is, a straight suction machine.        DIB

 

P.S.  Dyson had the “Baby” trademarked for the DC12 in other countries.  Agreed, "Baby" for the DC22 is a bit of a stretch.

Hello DIB

Thanks for your info.

The Japanese DC22 filters can go years[?] before between filter cleaning.  I just found the UK's DC22 instructions online and it says "To wash filters at least once a month."  What's up this?        DIB

Hi DIB,

That's rather interesting as well.  Must be a discrepancy on the website, I believe the DC22 filters can go for 6-7 years without washing. 

I agree with what you said about the DC12 as well, that would have been a fantastic machine for the US as a compact canister (with the DDM of course).  To me it seems the DC22 while bigger than the DC12 is still smaller than the 21 and 23 hence the "Baby" designation.
