Carmine, What percentage of U.S. vacuum users adjust their height adjustments correctly from room to room? In the past, CR did not explicitly and in bold messaging tell its readers that their carpet cleaning findings are based on having the perfect/near perfect height setting. Could CR not find print space just under where they claim to be non-bias and just above where they are in need of millions of dollars in "donations." I'm not interested in your opinion or you walking up and down the isles at Best Buy or interviewing folks in the Costco parking lot determining if Dyson products have value. I am interested in studies. What's the number (percentage)? DIB Is it not the people...the actual users of the product that you want to hear from and talk to. The shoppers who buy / why they bought. likes / dislikes.....changes youd make..ect. .... best info in the world is the customer/owner. they will tell you all you want to know.....cant get any better than that.

As to percentages of users, depends. Sometimes all of them. Sometimes none of them. Most times somewhere in between. The answer to the question, like the question, is irrelevant. The question, more appropriately SHOULD BE if vacuum users want/need height adjustments for carpet cleaning in their homes, what brands and models have them and for how much. For example: HOOVER TEMPO offers 5 on for $75-$80. THe latest from your company offers 4 for $500-$600. Carmine D. Carmine, You just admitted 2/3 rd’s of all U.S. vacuum users do not adjust their height adjustments properly. Confirming Dyson choosing the floating head method was indeed a brilliant [genius] business move. DIB

DIB: Your mind is so filled with drivel no wonder it's prone to bouts of idiosy. The majority of vacuum customers who seek out/buy upright vacuums specifically for the need of rug height adjustments do so to use them. A floating head made famous by HOOVER with the DAM was problematic on many of the carpets in the 1960's. HOOVER soon added adjustments in very short order. It doesn't take genius to know it could not work 40 plus years later on the same/more thickly piled styles and heights. Quite the contrary. Not benefiting from the knowledge/lessons of the past only allows supposed innovators to repeat the same failed missteps. If that's genius, stand in line with the people who P.T. Barnum says are born every 6 minutes and most likely dyson's target audience of buyers. That is wealth and money allowing. Carmine D.

In a purely unscientific study...of the 8 uprights I have in for repair at the moment all but one are set on the lowest carpet setting. The one that's not is set to "bare floors"
Dusty Dusty, I remember about a 1 1/2 yrs. ago or so you posted most vacuums that come in for repair come in with height adjustments set to the lowest position. THANKS. DIB
