Dysons filtration?
Original Message   Feb 10, 2010 12:46 pm
How sealed are Dysons? And how good is their filtration? I know the uprights - at least the older, older ones like the DC07 and such might have potential problems with sealing, such as show in this video right here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXA0N0V2uOQ However there could simply be something wrong w/ that one, who knows. BUT ANYWAYS, are the NEWER uprights COMPLETELY sealed? What about their canisters, such as the DC22, 23? Like does any air blow out of the cord reel or such, or ONLY out of the exhaust where it's SUPPOSED to come out from?

What does this have to do with the original question of how sealed are Dysons?

DIB I'm really asking....Is Dyson a Sealed System? A simple Yes or No is fine.

Dude I really don't even care anymore haha. I find this whole thread amusing and interesting, but I found out the Dysons DO have - reportedly - GREAT filtration, and that should be good enough for 99% of the people out there. So I'm fine and happy about that, haha.

Also, for all those who don't believe in Dysons durability, check out these reviews by people who have had them for all well over 6 years, some even 15 years old! http://reviews.argos.co.uk/1493-en_gb/4064389/reviews.htm

What a con vacmanuk...  I've been responding and attacking the lie and the 'defy physics con' of Dyson suction side leaks (dust into a home and breathed into lungs).  I've also been attacking the credibility of those making such claims.  Is this a problem?

You’re getting on this conversation awfully cheap.  Trust me, I’ve got plenty to say of the UK'ers 'blame Dyson whiners' - perhaps for another time.  In the meantime, maybe anti-UKgrowth would be a better descriptor for a user name.

MM Im sure you have. But then I've got plenty to say regarding U.S buyers and what they are conned into believing. You have already said plenty and in past posts it is clear that nothing else beats your love of Dyson vacs and I admire that. Perhaps you should change your name to DysonIncitesBull$#%* because for the most part all you seem to do is argue your case about Dyson with very little back up and proposed theories in how people on here jump to their own decisions. I suggest you take a feather and tie it onto the outside of your Dyson bin, and if you have a cylinder/canister model tie it onto the back of where the cable recesses. Make a video of it. If it blows gently then guess what - the Dyson leaks air.

Another UK vacman con.  It's probably just a feather that can fly.  After all, feathers do come off birds.  Dah!

Well, tie tissue paper strands or toilet tissue - anything light that will detect the slightest bit of escaping air. Leave the vacuum stationery.

Do you know what..? I think I'll try it myself and put it on you tube.

You can also use smoke or fog of some sort.  It's easily disturbed by air movement.  They use it or something similar when testing aerodynamic designs.

LOL I can see myself being overcome by incense at this rate, Venson!
