Hi Carmine, your experience differs to my own on the AirBlades - I've been surprised at the variety of places that have them installed; they're more popular than I thought they'd be. At the margins involved and the publicity it gives the Dyson brand, it's proved a success in many ways.
I recently read the same from a UK online magazine. That is, they did not seem to think the Airblade would sell, and now they're all around (the UK).
DIB Guys: How do you know these were bought and sold? Or gifted in the hopes to spark sales? These Air Blades don't stay in new condition in the boxes forever. They have a limited shelf. Parts deteriorate if stagnated after 3-4 years. They would have to be re-opened and re-inspected to ensure product worthiness. These driers don't stay new in the boxes forever. Carmine D.

--- Hi Carmine, while there's really no concrete way of me knowing the answer... one shopping mall near to where I worked had one installed soon after launch, which I presume was a sample. 18 months later, they appeared to have brought approx. 20 units for the other washrooms around the place. They're quite a good product for pre-sales samples, as they likely aren't an expensive product in terms of cost price as it's all the unique design patents and the added value the a buyer might pay for. Do you think they really would have such a short box life? Given that they're supposed to built to a high grade of durability? 'Can't personally see it myself...

Carmine is confused ( as Usual ). He thought they used Oreck belts which do deteriorate on the shelf.

Well guys instead of trying to convince me how good it is for $1400 why not buy one for your personal use and tell us how you like it? As they say, put your money where your ............. [you know the rest]. If I were a brit and felt like you all, I would buy at least one to test it out. Carmine D. PS: How many $300 dyson fans are you guys buying? None. That's what I thought. Talk is cheap. Plunk your money down and then tell me how great it is. Or wait until Dec 1, and when you get your free dyson products to blog about how great they are, you have to tell us so.
