The New Dyson DC27 Upright!
Original Message Jan 6, 2009 5:45 pm |

Having another topic mentioned some new vax machines on a Littlewoods website, I had a look around to see what else might be new and came across the 'new' Dyson DC27 Upright, see link below: http://www.littlewoods.com/rf/s.do?Np=1&Ns=&Ntk=littlewoods_search&Ntt=dyson&Ntx=mode+matchallpartial&Nty=1&Nu=this_product&pageSize=12&Nao=0&cmEvent=page_navigation They have 2 Models on their website 'Animal' and 'All Floors', first look suggests an update version of the US DC17 but for the UK\Europe markets. This will be the replacement for the popular DC14. I thought a separate motor for the brush bar like the DC17 would have been standard, but looks like it uses the DC04\DC07\DC14 clutch setup! Not sure as the website doesn't say if it just has a slim root cyclone technology or the core is included! It does look like it has more small cyclones than the current DC14 and DC15 and DC25 models. See picture of DC27 All Floors model below! DC18

This is really interesting, I would have thought it would come out in the Spring but certainly not this early. I heard the DC27 was basically a DC17 with a revised brushroll, so it it struck me as odd to see that clutch control. One source told me it might be DDM-equipped as well, but considering what other Dysons I heard were supposed to be DDM-equipped in the US and did not turn out that way, I'm going to believe *that* when I see it. Now I'm itching to see their new self-propelled model they will be releasing shortly. -MH

Hello MH and dyson fans:
Appears there were several early rumors about a DC27 including it would have a DDM and also may be a commercial rated upright product. But at $479 MSRP probably not the case for either. Glad to see that tho Wal*Mart and dyson could not come to terms on an exclusive model [during their most recent round of negotiations] that at least dyson could land a deal with Sam's Club Stores [also W*M but with much fewer stores]. Not sure yet whether it's in the Sam's Club Stores' shelves or just internet availability. WRT the latest DC27, does it have anything [features/performance] that's new and different from its predecessors? May be too soon to know since ironically the model/specs are not on dyson web sites yet. But DC27's are for internet sale on the Sam's Store Club internet site. Letting the horse push the cart. Carmine D.

Thanks DC18. Dyson’s been eliminating the pre-filter compartment above the cyclonic cluster for some time. This Dyson hood (and Ball too) are [design] patented-Dyson Symbols that easily distinguish his technologies from the crowded and fiercely competitive market. This Dyson-hood is not unlike BMW’s grill. Bravo Dyson! FYI, James Dyson and a couple of others are credited (named on patents) for these hoods (DC08 and DC17). DIB

Your welcome DIB. Yes that is true, even on the earlier DC01, DC02, DC03 the pre motor filter was not part of the cyclone assembly! Be interesting to see what the difference between the DC17 and DC27 is especially as there is a US version of the DC27! DC18
