Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

In the press today:-
http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/standard/article-23711862-details/Dyson+with+more+revs+than+F1+racer/article.do

Product details:-

• Motor goes at 106,000rpm 'three times faster than any other motor'
• 200 watt motor
• 65/38 air watts (switchable power??)
• £129.99 GBP RRP, powered brush version £149.99

I think the devil will be in the other details, as we learn them. Presumably it's using the Dyson Digital motor? From the photo, the collection bin looks slightly deeper and has a more prominent release switch. It has improved max suction (DC16 has 36 air watts) so I'm presuming (nay hoping) that it can run in standard mode for more than 5mins and switch to a 'turbo' mode as needed?

I have prefectly good DC16, but I could be tempted by something with a longer run time and twice the already impresive suction for car cleaning.

I'm very sorry - what did the doctors say?

Carmine/Venson,

You guys are funny!

Venson, your “To much science, not enough practicality” statement is side splitting.  What part of the Dyson “meet and greet”/intro to the DDM handheld do you find confusing/can’t get your head around (not practical enough for you)?

And Carmine is classic Carmine... that is, he never is or rarely is accurate of Dyson.  TTI’s so-called fade free lineup came ONLY AFTER Dyson’s fade free DC16.  Dyson DC16 needs fast steady airflow, TTI's handheld has no mechanical benefits to being "fade-free".  TTI used the fade-free marketing hype/no mechanical benefit handheld only so to enter Dyson's preimum priced handheld segment.

Model2,

You went to the intro?...  very cool.  For a collector/historian meeting/watching Dyson demo history/their inventions IS HUGE...  a once in a hundred years or so opportunity.  

I’m going out of town and like to hear more later.  If you have anything else to share then please do.  I’d like to view the entire presentation if possible.

Thank you for the upload, etc!!!

DIB,

I not the least bit confused. The issue to me is having a simple machine to handle simple jobs. However, here we have all this wonderful -- and expensive -- technology just to get donut crumbs out of my car.

As I said, my little ten dollar tub will do just fine. Should it fail, I'll roll the car around to the house and run a dord out. (Done it before.) AND gas plus juice included for the task, I'll come out cheaper.

Are they throwing in the hand vac to compliment  the dc28 giveaway?

Whens Sir James going on top gear???????

He already has, of sorts...  about a year or so ago, Jeremy Clarkson demo’d the Porsche Carrera and talked of it’s clean emissions and said “It’s like a Dyson”.  Dyson like no others, enjoys much free press.

Venson,

There is money to be made and new ground to break.  Dyson achieves this with this tiny DDM invention and product.  The upside of being a private company... no one other than its owner controls what direction it takes or products they should pursue.  Dyson believes (seen the DC16 sales evidence?) he will sell 1,000,000 units.

Point well taken DIB but I'm not worried over who breaks new ground with a hand vacuum cleaner. We still have AIDS, cancer and the common cold to cure along with an economy also badly in need of a doctor. Being generous, even if bonafide proof is made public that he managed to unload 100,000 of these doo-hickeys I'll be surprised.

Hello DIB:

Thank you kindly for the gracious compliment.  I knew if I lived long enough I would be a classic.
