I previewed the dyson DC21 Stowaway canister. Sad. In 2 additional years after pulling the DC11, dyson still is prone to the same foibles. Terrible set up. Wands too heavy and bulky as is the power nozzle which flip flops all over with the ball facilitator wheel. Doesn't stand upright in the on/off position. Just falls over. Brush roll is horrible. Short cord. Small dirt bin. Mediocre cleaning on the rug, even low pile. Wands don't catch tightly in the power nozzle. Takes two and three tries bending over to lock by hand. At $499, it will go the same way as the DC11 in the USA. Sorry sales and soon forgotten. Heavy weighted with everything on board to stow. I have a perfect storage place: 6 feet under ground pushing up daisies.

Is this the best that 500 dyson engineers can do in 2 years? Sorry group. Fire them. Overpaid and underworked. Maybe they'll have better results with their other concept products? Name one/two!

The higher air-watts in the DC21 makes the power nozzle squeal (with the brush roll on) at a higher noise pitch than the DC18. Something I did not mention earlier. Carmine D.

Has HSN, which launched the DC21 Stowaway in March 2007 on TV, "scrubbed" it from it's lineup? Take a look: No DC21. No match found for an HSN search and it's not shown as a recent TV seller, despite its appearance in March, just 2 months ago. Matt "mmc" can you provide assistance here? What happened?

Thank you. Strange that HSN does not show as "sold out" and "back order" item. And comes up NO MATCH on a search. And does not show up as a recent TV sold item. HSN gives potential DC21 customers the impression it is gone and forgotten. Wink

HSN sold over 600 units in the "Dyson 1 yr. Anniversary" shows (4 airings over 2 days - 5/22/07 & 5/23/07).
HSN "Customer Pick" Per HSN: "It's in the stars. Our customers love these products so much, they've rated each item at least 4 out of 5 stars."
HSN's next Dyson airdate: June 23rd
HSN's order desk supervisor "believes so" - re: DC21 returning and airing on the June 23rd show.
