I bought a dyson. To test it, I vacuumed with my old unit, and then immediately vacuumed with my dyson. surprise, I managed to completely fill the canister.they're noisy and expensive, but they work really well.

I have 4 Dyson products, besides the hair-dryer, all of the others are bad (can't say they suck b/c that's the main job of 2 of the vacuums and they can't get it done).I bought the dyson air purifier that's cold and hot, it's so bad...works at the same level as a USB fan...The vacuums are loud and look futuristic but can't clean anything properly.Any recommendations for a good vacuum are welcome!

I'm surprised at this - seems bizarre that it's a 'great product' but isn't commercially viable in any way?As an aside, I really can't understand why people are so enthusiastic about Dyson products - I find them to be poor to use and poor performers. My gf has a dyson vacuum cleaner (a v6, I think), and it's terrible. Battery life is minimal, the suction is poor compared to anything I've used in the past, all the novelty parts of it (motorised roller,

Disagree. A broom and mop will do better, costs less, has almost no noise. Dust flying everywhere sure, but these dyson gimmicks are plain useless.

It's not, Dyson already perfected it.. :^)/s
