    GUYS IN THE UK!

    WD40 Ive never thought of using WD40 for cleaning a Vacuum,But i swear by it at work,it's amazing at removing grease from the coaster trains,or turtle wax for the trains made of fibre glass, But at home i use Cif wipes just to give the DC24 a once over then buff it with a dry cloth Neil

    Do Dyson's Really Rip Up Carpet? Or Is It Just The Underwhelming Quality Carpets These Days?

    I've had no issues with my DC24,I like that's it's lightweight and compact and it makes a nice job of grooming my carpets,it's a great little machine Neil

    Dyson DC24 Epic Fail

    i'm a little bit disappointed that it's broken at the moment,but i'm fine about it as these things can't be helped, but the poor lady i bought it from was mortified when i told her,but i've reassured her that it's been dealt with,she won't take the payment til it's working properly

    Dyson DC24 Epic Fail

    i really can't fault the customer service centre,she was very apologetic and told me to ring if i still have any issues once the new cleaner head arrives,i shall have to wait and see

    i had never heard of the sebo brand til until i joined this forum,most of the powders are probably good for keeping a carpet looking nice and bright,but i wouldn't expect miracles on a heavily stained carpet

    thanks for the tip,i might just stick to cleaning the carpets with a spray applicator and a brush,it really brings them up nice, My carpets are now nice and clean and ready for the new arrival :)
