Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Here's the truth.  Within the first year of launch, dyson retooled the DC07 u-bend air way joint.  Making it permanent on the DC07-s and not removable.  It was removable originally on the first and early DC-07's supposedly to allow users to clear clogs/blockages.  It had a yellow thumb tab on it to depress to remove/attach.

4 year old-s could and probably did!  Then store staffs with years of experience trained by former housewives [turned dyson reps] could't replace!    That IS the truth, my HS man.  That's the reason dyson corrected the design and function flaw in the u bend air way joint on subsequent DC-07's.  And subsequently scrubbed it on all the post DC14 models.  Word, my little menschins! 

Matt mmc, AirBlade, where are you?  This rabid dyson pack hath need of thee!  Won't accept the truth from a dyson critic.  Maybe you will be more successful?

All vacuums clog,no manufacturer other than dyson makes the claim that theirs dont.

Yes the early model 07 had the tabs for the duct removeal,many were off by accident and brought in for service,

My advice to dyson would be to take all the different angles that the air has to move through to get to the end of the system,this would also bring the high temperatures down to where the casings would not distort so much.

Thanks.  You should remember that years ago and here too I was the FIRST person that  criticized the thumb tab on the U bend air way joint on the DC07.  Saying users stepped on it to release the dyson handle.  Then couldn't reinstall.  And w/o it, no suction in the tool mode.  Mike W. knows too [the invisible man].  Thanks MIke for your assistance here. 

It's called let's divert the criticism away from dyson which IS the problem and spin it toward Carmine D.  You know that by now.  Your band of happy rabid dysoners are experts at the game.  It makes me laugh with a heart of joy.  And solidifies my position on dysons. 

These menschkins know the thumb tab idea was a joke.  Shame on the 450 dyson engineers.  Not to mention that it violates the cardinal rule of Mr. D's autobiography that users should not have to bend over to fiddle with controls and switches.  Does that include removing/reinstalling the joint [with and without the tab press] ?

The original ubend airway joint required the user to install in many cases on the DC-07's new out of the box.  Why?  Because the poor dyson quality control let them go out off the vacuum and/or the piece came off in shipping and/or in opening and displaying.  Isn't that right Matt?  And many of the store staff didn't know how and what to do with the pieces.  That's the reason the DC07 was retooled and refitted to be permanently on the vacuum [out of the box]  unless removed by the user.

Good thing ORECK stayed the course and took dyson to court.  I have not seen the latest DC24/25 product lit.  But, if dyson is still using the false claim, then dyson is violating the NAD ruling and subject to punitive and monetary disciplinary actions.  Dyson isn't that stupid.  Even the dyson retailers have long dropped the use of the false dyson claim.

You're in Canada, and it was late to the dyson sales game.  Just the last 3 years if I understood correctly.  I suspect you're getting old dyson DC07 stock before the u bend airway was made permanent.  And the dyson pics are old.  All the DC07-s now in the USA [that I have seen in stores since the launch of 2002] have a permanent u bend airway joint.  The removable one has been obsolete here in the USA.  I speak with experience in several states on both coasts.

It's an important piece.  Without it, the vacuum has no suction in the tool mode. [FYI: The DC07 pink I bought in August 2006 from TARGET had a very permanent u bend airway joint with no thumb tab to be seen and still does].
