Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

It's true, no more clutch.  It uses a brushroll motor.

Me too.  ORECK documents its direct suction air flow and revolving speed of the brush roll [based on scientific measurements] of 102 MPH and 6500 RPM.  Plus, one of the largest paper bag capacities in the industry.  What's your fave brand's speeds?

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.

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?

Yeah, where?  They’re your statements not mine.  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.

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>>>>>>>>

Like the DC15 ball, which is a bust for sales, so is the DC24 and DC25.  Recall dyson dropped its price in the USA by $100 just a few months into its launch.  Sure retailers put the ball models at the top of their lists.  What exactly does that mean?  Explain it for me.  Do you really expect retailers to publicly say that the dyson ball models are THE WORSE SELLING DYSON MODELS THEY EVER CARRIED SAVE THE DC11?  If they were honest, perhaps.  But you know that retailers can't be honest and expect customers to buy new dysons, especially the ball models.  

I'm happy for you that the DC25 is good seller for you.  You are in a silent tiny minority of dyson ball fans.  I suspect for a limited number of vacuum buyers, if not given other options, the DC25 ball model is a likely seller.   DC24 ball is a terrible terrible vacuum.  Not worth the price [$399] w/wo the ball technology.   ORECK runs rings around it and over it.  DC24 gets the worse dyson ratings and rankings from Consumer Reports ever.   Let's see what happens when the DC25 comes up to bat.  If sales are lackluster now, after a CR rating/rank, if bad, they'll be dead in water.

If they are sooooooooooooooo good, tell me why the DC07/14 and the clutches are kaput!

Hiya MOLE,

I won't cast aspersions on the Dyson name but it and many other high-cost brands can definitely be found on eBay. Whatever the worth, people are not looking to get skinned in the attempt to have something decent.

Most of these are the genuine article -- meaning legally acquired -- and sold by reputable eBay vendors whose feedback can be easily checked in regard to customer satisfaction. That's good enough for me. If anything is in question, it's why I can't simply walk down the block and find the same priced as reasonably.

DIB:  You made those statements here in writing about the clutch chatter/mediocre CR DC07 and DC14 ranks.  I don't have to produce evidence to change your mind.  Believe what you want to believe in your mind.  Doesn't change the facts.  DC07 and DC14 are finito.  Gone.  Sayonara on the tin guitar.  Dyson clutches on US models are gone with the wind.   You can believe these dyson models are the best on the planet in dyson's reportoire.  Butt even James himself would disagree with you.  Unless of course he pulled them and discontinued clutch usage because they are soooooooooooooo good.

Venson/MOLE:

As pointed out by several posters here, DC07 and DC14 prices are going to have to come crashing down [with their discontinuance] on the new/used vacuum market.  When their prices do, so will all the new/used dyson upright prices on the USA market.  Compounded by the bad economic conditions and lackluster sales.
