Quote from old-timer on 02/21/07 at 11:07am:Does the shroud still load with dust after 3 weeks,just like the uprights.
And dont hit us with the old customer neglect routine.
By the way thats a real poor excuse for a powerhead.
sell,sell.sell.

Hello Jimmy the Old Time Pro:
I suspect that dirt and debris will be more likely to clog and block the holes of the dyson canister shroud than the dyson uprights. Why? Compare the dyson canister dirt bin and shroud set up to say the Kenmore Progressive Iridium and even the dyson uprights. The dyson canister set up is inclined and the shroud will sit in the dirt as the bin fills up during use. If the dyson canister shroud and bin were straight up and down like the dyson uprights, and assuming the user dumped the dirt at the fill line, this blockage of the shroud holes by the dirt would not occur. Such is the case with the dyson uprights and the Kenmore Progressive Iridium where the set up is straight up and down. Still overtime and use, they clog.
I believe, like you, the dyson canister inclined set up is a design flaw in a bagless vacuum operation. Looks unconventional and spiffy but at what price to the vacuum's performance.
