Hello Acerone: I saw either the DC24/DC25 TV ad. I'm not sure which it was. I'm very surprised that dyson doesn't use a home setting with a person using the vacuum. Just the stand alone vacuum [not sure which one it is?] on a dull background with some sales pitching. And no price. Not going to win any advertising awards from my perspective. Carmine D.
Come to think of it, I tend to believe it was the DC24. Why? The bottom cord wrap is so close to the ground in the TV ad. But very hard to make out.

Hello DIB: That's a sudden change from 'liars and thieves.' Carmine D. I made my point. I do have a family to think of. DIB

Hello DIB: Good people do bad things. Bad people do good things. Remember the "Good Thief" on Mt. Calvary! Made a Saint on the spot and entered into the Kingdom of God! Carmine D.

Hello DIB: The DC15 is and was a big time flop for dyson. The DC24/25 is a desperate attempt to restore his good name. From the starting gate the DC15 was fraught with problems. The least of which was Kenneth J. Thru several and most retailers including BEST BUY the DC15 is claimed the worse selling dyson. Certainly the poorest rated dyson by Consumer Reports always more than half way down the list of models tested. At the current $400 retail [before discounts], dyson should be as ashamed as an inventor and vacuum cleaner man. As much so as the dead DC11. No wonder Dyson is so quick to defend failure. He has alot of experience with the latter. The DC11 and DC15 aren't even desirable as collectibles among the most ardent vacuum enthusiasts. They are best served as recycled materials for the junk heap. Carmine D.

Carmine, The DC15 as a full sized vacuum missed the mark for many (size and weight). In terms of getting the public's interest the DC15 proved the concept and separated itself from the pack. Yes, there was a learning curve as to what is a practicable weight for a turning pivoting vacuum cleaner. The Slim looks to be a full blown money making success. An example of its popularity - HSN reportedly sold 7000 units as a “Today Special” in a 12 hour period (I think it was Dec of 2007). The Slim is loved big time at review sites and pages too. DIB

Too bad dyson came out with the DC24/25. The DC18 is now on the chopping block at most big box retailers. Less than 2 years old. Dyson shot himself in the foot on this one. He upstaged a supposed best selling sku [the DC18] by making it obsolete before its time. Why? To restore his tarnished image with the DC15 by rushing to market the DC24/25. Not very bright. Especially in the current economic times.

Dyson improves and moves on.
Hello HARDSELL: What improvements do you see with the newer dyson models after the ones you used/sold-returned? Be specific. If you want to focus on one model like the DC15, DC17, DC18, DC24, DC25 fine. Or all the models. If you want to focus on the canisters, like the DC20, 21, 22, then please do. I'm curious to hear what you think about the improvements of latest and greatest dyson vacuums. Carmine D.
