Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Dyson is in the news frequently and so a dedicated thread.

So you were wrong and now want to twist the subject to headlights. No Dyson is not un-standard although you implied that it was.  Since Oreck does not have a manual height adjuster it is not the norm of what is expected. In fact, I do not think it has a means of adjusting height.  CR should be very critical of the Oreck.  Of course like you they have double standards.

The Royal has a head light.  So it is just as standart as the Oreck.

I would add the ability to turn off the brush roll as a desired standard.  Your Oreck and most Hoovers lack this feature.

ORECK is a lightweight, 8 pounds.  Not a full size.  Tho Consumer Reports rates it against full size vacuums.  And the DeLuxe and XL 21 ORECK-s have headlights unlike dysons.

BTW, stick to the thread, dysons.

You said uprights.  Oreck is an upright. 

Headlights on a vacuum are like teats on a boar hog.  Useless.

Impossible to stick to topic when dealing with you.  That is your way of saying that you have once again been proven wrong and want to twist out of the conversation.

Golf is calling.  See ya later.

HS:

I said full size uprights.  ORECK is not!

I'm too young to play golf.  Maybe when I get to be your age: Old. 

Better have that cup of joe before you go.  You'll need it!  The way you are fumbling and mumbling this morning.  Coffee will help.

I alredy had the Joe.

This is what you said:  "BTW, Consumer Reports is always critical of upright vacuums without manual rug height adjustments" 

That crow is sticking in your throad this AM.  Better have a drink to wash it down

HS:

Go back and read the first quote of mine you posted.  And have another cup!  The first didn't work.

That was your opinion.  Then you said that CR is critical of uprights, not just full size.

And CR is critical of uprights without adjustments.  But I said that rug height adjustments are standard for full sized uprights in the USA.  Not CR.  Get the facts and sources straight.  2 cups of joe may help.

Hello, Today July 5th HSN's "Today Special" is a Dyson DC07 (white on dark grey) packaged/bundled deal.  The bundled deal is - It comes with 3 extra tools and free shipping.

Question:  Are independent Dyson dealers allowed by Dyson to match this bundle and price?  If not, what can they do to respond to such a price?  Thanks.        DIB

You  could also add Riccar, Panasonic, Sharp and Aerus to the list of units without height adjustments. Pretty big names not following the "american standard".
