Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Seems you settled down.

The facts and circumstances are there for all to read and interpret as they like, if they like.  You too.  They can verify with Mohawk and dyson and not take my word or any other.  I mentioned to you that a large regional rug and appliance retailer here in LV recommended against dyson on the rugs I have.   Suggesting HOOVER and others with a manual height adjustment.  My ORECK works fine.  No rug height adjustment!  But ORECK is lighter than full sized vacuums and doesn't get buried down in the rug pile.  I told you too that my builder and his floor/rug contractor recommended against dysons on the rugs that residents and I have in our homes in my community.  Citing instead HOOVER and ORECK.  Maybe due to the fact that these brands are approved by the Carpet and Rug Institute and dyson is not.  BTW, the CRI cite is referenced in the link I provided to you too.  This is all rehashed information I've told you a half dozen times before.  I didn't make it up.  You can choose to believe or disbelieve.  Just like my Mohawk wool carpets.

Hello HARDSELL:

Simple explanation, believe it or not.  It's my interpretation. 

This is a non-vacuum industry person providing his interpretation of the exchange with dyson/rug retailer.  I take this to mean that his dyson Animal is a DC17 not DC07, but it doesn't say for sure.  Especially since the poster's date is August 2008 more in time with the DC17.  And like dyson told me, disconnect the brush roll/use straight suction and/or attachments [on the rug!!!].  The poster was probably told the same by dyson.  And the poster says Mohawk recommended a beater bar.  I interpret this as a revolving brush not straight suction.  But the brushes on the dyson [DC17] are too stiff and cause damage.  If you research the other link I provided, the model in question is a DC17.   But the rug distributor does not make the voided warranty model specific instead disallowing all models by that brand.

..............and for a very limited few, their brilliance radiates like the sunshine!  But, of course, one must be able to read and comprehend to understand and appreciate them!  Since you didn't know and asked me the question, which I answered and explained to you in very short order, figure out who is who.  Take your time before you answer.  I don't want you to have to change your mind [again].
