Hello Carmine D
 
Looking back the DC11 was not really designed for the US!  I have to say I wasn't very sure about the split 2 bins on the DC11 and how effective that was!  
 
Looking beyond the DC11 the bin setup on the DC21 is the same as the DC08 and DC08 Telescope wrap here in the UK (unless it's using level 3 Root Cyclone) and that setup seems to work very well.  The bin design is totally different to the Dyson uprights, I noticed that on my DC05 when I first got it!  
 
Will have to see how it does in the US and Canada!

Hello OT:
 
SEARS dropped the price of the Sears Kenmore Progressive Cyclonic bagless (Iridium Model 26822) to $399 from $499.  It will be interesting to see if Sears adds the DC21 to its stores' venue and for what price.  The Sears price on the DC17 Absolute Animal is $549 and on this week's sale for $522.  No price competition with LNT which is selling the DC17 for $440 (after the 20 percent off).

Hello Chris:
 
How soon will dyson ship the DC18/DC21 to you?  
 
Do you sell the DC16, Hand Held, and DC17 Absolute Animal?
 
Carmine D.

Look for the factory refurbished machines,these are as good as new and cost half the dealer cost.
If you want to stay in the dyson business this is more than likely the way you should go. Don't let them fool you,they got plenty.

Lots of different views taken on the DC18 in that report!
