My, that's quite a 'free' prime time advert he had there, wasn't it? Roll over while I tickle your belly! You should see the grilling spokespeople like him get on BBC News!
Interesting that he said that while vac sales have gone down in the recession, Dyson's market share has gone up.



Figures lie and liars figure.  Sounds like dyson went from his old reliable "largest dollar share of vacuums sold" to a new measure.  Give me the cold hard numbers not the dyson speak.

You made the statement.  The burden is on you to prove that you are correct.

Just for thought.  If they go stale on the shelf how long does it take one to go stale in use.



You forget again I bought 4 new ORECKS and the belts were fine on all of them.

One of the US networks should have your good self on as a guest interviewer for Dyson one day. Heck, I'd pay good money on Pay Per View for that :-p

Still, back we go to your tried and tested formula of walking around the stores in Nevada...

You do not represent the world.  Regardless of what you think.

4 is nothing in comparison to total units manufactured.  Remember it was you who suggested that another poster check the belt for in box deterioration.

You seem to forget that my DC07 was problem free for years.

Never said I did.  I stand for me, myself and I and the 3 others who were gifted the ORECKs.  That's all that matters.  BTW, each ORECK comes with a spare belt in the undercarriage of the head.  Those were good too.

I welcome the opportunity.  Just one of my many ways.  42 years in the vacuum sales and service business and 15 plus years as an industry consultant.  I've made many professional and personal contacts over the years.  I use them all as resources.  I still keep up a frequent dialogue with the indies here in Las Vegas, and others around the country.  Good well rounded sphere of influence on all matters related to vacuums.  As I say, I get by with a little help from my friends. 

But its not about me here, least it shouldn't be.  It should be about the products.  Much more authentic reviwer opinions when people actually BUY and USE the products that they opine on.  Rather than talk about them ad infinitum and ad nauseum when they never took any money out of their pockets to buy.

Guys:

In contemplating a sit down with Sir James I would as a matter of curiosity pose this question and ask the distinguished British inventor to comment on it:

   In an interim report about changing test procedures of iec 60312 it says:  " Multi cyclones are excellent for filtering dust type solids but can have some problems with fibrous materials due to a tendency to agglomerate as they enter the cyclone."  The report goes on to say that a barrier or filter was needed prior to entering the cyclone.  What are your thoughts and comments on this Mr. Dyson. 

Or anyone else who likes dyson speak.

That Oreck belt in the spare undercarriage is all very well. However to change the roller brush or clean it involves taking off quite a few too many screws on the sole plate. In the UK Oreck seem to think owners should be replacing their brush rolls every year.
