Dyson DC31 Handheld cleaner
Original Message   Jun 25, 2009 10:06 am
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.

You do not want to post under different screen names on this forum, because it shows that you are trying to deceive.  Have one name or the other, but not multiples.  If you have to go through all of that, to get your point across, you really do not have a point.  We will see if there are multiple names and it will not be kept a secret.  You will be kicked out of here.


Mike, Is there any way to see if some have multiple personalities although only one user name?

Like I told you DIB, it's one thing to know the Word and quite another to practice in our daily lifes.  I have always recoined the above Proverb and stated as follows:  It's better to stay quiet and appear to be dumb, than open your mouth and remove all doubt.  I follow that saying.  More should.

DIB:

The person with their nose in the part of Sir James anatomy where the sun never shines, shouldn't comment on others' noses and where they are.

I keep telling you:  Before you criticize the splinter in your neighbor's eye, remove the timber from your own.

Where's your proof now DIB?  Can't  back up your words can you?

Carmine D.



I’m fine with Mike’s explanation, no one lost face, not even me.  Like I said, you've got nose trouble.

Actually DIB, as I explained here on several occasions, I have an extra keen sense of smell.  Fragrance and perfume counters are my forte.  Then again you can't smell the wondrous fragrances in nature if you have your nose so far up a part of James' anatomy where the sun never shines.

While you may think you haven't lost face, you bit off your nose to spite your face.  You have falsely accused two of the most honorable gentlemen posters here on the Forum: Venson and Severus.  When they challenged you, you cowered like a scared chicken and ran to the Forum administrator for assistance.  Then given the proof that you were wrong did not do the right thing by apologizing for your errors.  Even worse than being a dyson pawn here is to have no scruples and integrity in the exercise of your pawn duties.

That's right.  Says me.  Unlike you here, I speak for myself not Sir James.  And I call it like it is.  DC31 for $250-$300 not counting a $60 set of attachments is an insult to the handhelds of the vacuum industry today.  I suspect the only ones ever to get sold will be the ones that gifted away to dyson pawns and then resold for a fraction of the price in the after market sales.  What do you think?  Never mind.  Don't answer.  You'll give the dyson party line: sugar coated bull shine.

Retardturtle,

Don’t think all think like you do, or have the financial constraints or financial beliefs you do.  There’s plenty who want the best and can easily afford or justify paying for something RADICALLY BETTER THAN ANYTHING in its [cordless handled/no loss of suction] class.
