Re: The DC27 - to replace the DC07 & DC14. Say good-bye to the clutch.

Hello HS: Haven't had your coffee yet, I see! Lest you forget, Tom Oreck, CEO of ORECK, was the first vacuum industry Exec to make statements in January 2009 to the financial news networks on nationwide TV about ORECK 2008 sales. Saying and I quote: "ORECK fared better than most of the industry but not as well as we pedicted for 2008." If lucky, lucky, dyson may publish its results earlier than Nov 2009 [legal requirment] for 2008. And has made no public announcements about 2008 sales or if it has the results are so bad no dyson insiders here will post them. Recall, the pound is down by 30 percent against the dollar and down against other EU currencies. So the dyson numbers' wizards will be looking to fudge/spin to look good. Have to wait to see how and by how much. Talking about canns, when was the last time you lugged out your Rainbow? What happened to that old Lux tank you use to own? What do you own and use now? Carmine D.
Ol tom must be so profitable that he is trying to give orecks away. Why else would he slash prices by 25%. OTH, maybe he just needs cash flow. Fared better still may not mean good.
I do not use canns as you know. I already told you I do not like to drag out the attachments. The Lux has lonnnnng been gone. I primarily use the Kirby although it is a pain in the rear. It is similar to oreck because if not using simply as an upright. I still like its cleaning power over oreck even though it is a pain. I perfer deep cleaning as opposed to surface cleaning.

In fact, many retailers, after threats of legal action and suits by vacuum customers, have taken dysons back long after 30-60-90 days. The reason in part, retailers are culling their dyson inventories in these bad times. And so many dyson refurbs for sale. And probably the reason in part the Dc07 and Dc14 are being scrubbed by dyson. To many returns due to faulty clutch chatter. Drives people and pets crazy. Like scratching your nails over the chalk board. Or a rake over the concrete. Just gets under your skin. Carmine D. Carmine, You never let me down... can you document these "threats of legal action" and "suits by vacuum customers"? DIB

Carmine,

DIB DIB: All you have to do is read some of the customer reviews for these dyson models. It's all there. Just have to look and read. Carmine D.

DIB: You here yourself posted that dyson's clutch chatter [euphemism for gawdawful screeching noises] was a major reason for dyson returns. You don't remember? That and the fact that DC07 and DC14 models always fared poorly in Consumer Reports. You said that too here. So, tell me the reasons, other than these, for dyson scrubbing DC07/14 and the clutches. Carmine D.

Glad you asked Dusty. First, TARGET and BEST BUY stores have/had the DC16 giveaway just with the DC25 ball model, so you are not completely correct. This tells me dyson DC25 Ball is not selling at those retailers and the giveaway is a way to jump start sales.
So you are only assuming that DC25's aren't selling because they have a free vac with the purchase. Shall we also assume that any item with something free attached to it also isn't selling? Can you show me somewhere that actually says that the DC25 is a bust? I know you like numbers...me too. I see the DC25 on many stores best selling lists (bestbuy, walmart). My challenge to you would be to show me somewhere that shows it's gathering dust and not moving. I've looked...I can't find anything. I can only go by what I see and what I sell. What can you show me? Dusty

So produce... Can you demonstrate 10 such - "threats of legal action" and "suits by vacuum customers"? Since Google has claimed 1 trillion pages indexed, surely 5 minutes researching will aid in the “bellying up” with a negligible 10 complaints out of 20 million Dyson’s sold. Thanks in advance. DIB

Dusty Not to highjack this thread but the internet and ebay are killing the dyson dealers and box stores, Can you justify the 2 to 3 hundred dollar price difference between the legit dealers and the bootleggers on line?Dont give me the B.S. story about yours are first run machines and come with the factory warranty intact. That story is getting real OLD, I would say DYSON better start looking at $150.00 and under market,after all thats all any of their JUNK is really worth>>>>>>>> regards MOLE
