Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

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).

HARDSELL:

After the umpteenth time here, your Oreck material is losing its comical appeal. 

I like Mole's characterization the best.  He used it once on this Forum and once on another [if I recall correctly]: He calls Oreck: A hokey on a stick.  I love it!

Carmine D.

Hi Carmine,the phrase is motorized hoky,I heard that one from a hoover rep in the early 80's.......

Hi Mole:

Thank you.  I love it!  HOOVER is the source of many of the vacuum industry's terms and vernacular.

I would LOVE to have the stats on how many people respond to that ad who actually walk out of the store with the $199 model vs another more costly version!

Me thinks this is a classic advertising/marketing bait and switch....

Hello Lucky1:

It's an on-line order, good for one day.  Free shipping.  $199 for the upright with a 3 year warranty.  I'm considering buying another as a gift for someone. 

I bought 4 in the last year of the same model from a mailed offer to me.   $150 each, plus shipping and taxes, with a one year warranty. 

It do happen despite the doubters.

Carmine D.

And the oreck owned stores can advertise this also at 199.00,some evem give bags away with the machine,
