Hello, Just looking to see if anyone has a NIB (new-in-box) Dyson DC15 and DC23 Motorhead. Thanks!

William, The noise level is just about the same -- with the exception of the added low tone growl from the revised brush roll. You can hear and feel the longer bristles at work. Using the hose on the DC41 will feel no different than with any other current generation Dyson. However...

Also.... Just incase you were wondering, the HEPA side hemisphere screws on and off by twisting the big purple hub at the center of the hemisphere. It ratchets once it hits proper torque in order to prevent stripping. Also, the kickstand is pressure sensitive; there is no longer a red pedal.

Rounded airway Reminds me of the DC04/DC07. Also, note the clear access hatch for removing any airway obstruction inside the ball.

Other changes. A few other things worth noting: - The handle of the machine no longer separates with the telescopic want. - The dusting brush has longer, softer bristles for broader cleaning coverage. - Dyson finally went back to using rounded airways as seen on older units such as the DC04...

Through the center All of the airflow is directed to the center, hence the name "Radial Root Cyclone". Note the increased number of high-efficiency cyclones. DC41 as twelve, DC25 has five.

Removing Pre-filter. Looks like it'll be easier to clean.

Redesigned Pre-filter Now at the core of the canister.

Radial Root Cyclone Look, no shroud. Instead, there is a screen.

Inside the Ball. Each hemisphere rides on two ball bearings: one at the axle, and one at the bottom of the base to ensure a frictionless glide. I like how the HEPA filter twists on to secure rather than snap in place. I've seen countless DC25's with noise issues because air would bleed...

Integrated ducting, Independent hemispheres In a way, this is kind of like a DC18 steering mechanism on steroids, without the roller at the base; the machine rides on those two free-spining hemispheres.

I also like to note that the cleaning head is secured with a separate U-clip like the DC24, and that the brush roll is no longer held in place by removable end-caps [instead, each end of the brush roll is secured in place by two screws]; this eliminates the vibration noise that plaques a great...

Unique Brush roll.... As far as I know, this is the only double helix brush roll that has two distinct rows of bristles: one row of short bristles complementing one row of tall bristles. This brush roll definitely cleans and grooms the carpet well; you can hear and fell this thing beat the...

Active base plate The base plate adapts to the height of the surface you are cleaning, and it actually maintains a tight seal at all times. Think of the suction hopper on a street sweeper...

Hello, I figured I'd post some pics of my DC41, since I'm sure some of you are very interested in it. This is definitely several steps forward for the Dyson Ball, since with the DC41 you have a 35 foot cord once again (DC15 - 35' cord, DC25 - 25' cord, DC41 - 35' cord), more double the debris...
