Grass Nightmare....just glad my little brother likes gardening as I certainly wouldnt want to mow our 1 acre of garden every week! Looks good, I still prefer hard box (Paper bag enclosure) cleaners though! Going to start on the U2798 in a min here. Chris

Hooverjedilord Yup they were. I've emailed you :) GSheen I've got some bearings, not sure if they're genuine or what, but I'll look out for some high spec ones. Thanks for the advice Chris

Hi everyone The other day I picked up 2 Turbopowers and a Hoover Commercial that were listed on Gumtree. I only wanted the Turbopowers, but the Commercial is going to a friend tomorrow. Anyway, the new Turbopowers are both TP1s, a U2716 ''boost'' and a U2798. They were listed as working, but...

Interesting thread Tayyab, thanks for starting it! Heres mine... 1) How do you start vacuuming? By reclining the vacuum, and switching on. 2) How often do you unplug the vacuum? Downstairs, frequently. Upstairs, every room. 3)How often do you vacuum? My bedroom? Everyday. Rest of the...

Hi all Today I got another DC01, a blue and grey one from Facebay. It cost me £20 and I traded in my DC07 at the same time for a tenner off. The machine works fine, no smells or unhealthy noises and the machine seems virtually intact apart from a glued chunk of plastic on the spine and the 2...

Update Hi CitroenBX Nice line up of machines, I can't wait for a collection like that! Hi Tayyab Yes it is, I've FBd you about it. SINCE posting, the machine has been stripped, washed and had a new belt fitted. Few clean up pics below! (Sorry about the poor quality) Chris

Hi all. I don't post here frequently, I must get into the habit of doing so more often! Anyway, to point. Some might remember me having a DC04 De Stijl, I made the mistake and tipped it, and only the other week started deeply regretting it! Anyway, the other night I spotted a DC01 De Stijl on...

DC01s.... ...Hiya, looks grand, barely affected by the sunlight discolouration issues most early Dysons suffer with. I've got a DA001, DC01 De Stijl and as of the other night I did a trade for a DC01 in grey and blue. I'll upload pics later on. Chris

Whoops... ...I spelt Roger with a d in the middle how a friend spells his name (Don't ask why). Sorry!

I agree too, Chris... ...that credit needs to be given to Rodger. I know that I love my vacuum cleaners and applinaces, have the ability to purchase appliances as and when I need them, but the lengths Rodger has gone to to purchase so many vacuums, and bother to share every drop of unboxing...

Hi! Some might know I have a Dyson DA001....Ive had it a while but never worked on it as such till the other day. I totaly stripped it down and washed it all out, the motor housing was black and now theres a huge black carbon dust stain on my bedroom carpet...oh well! There are a few pics from...

Hi all. I've got into collecting vacuums as well as washers now, and ended up with a fair few. However, I feel I'm moving on, and like with some of my washing machines, feel its time to downsize, as actually...I dont want to be carrying round 20 washing machines and 20 vacs. So, I'm offering...

Hi all. I've been given a Dyson DA001, it was my aunts, owned from new. She had the DA001 upstairs in her old house, and a DC14 Origin downstairs, but she's down-sized into a bungalow and has no need for 2 vacuum cleaners. Before she moved, I asked her to keep the DA001 for me if she were to get...

Hi Mark! Thanks, I love them all too! I've noticed, the DA001 picture is rather looong, please excuse that, and I've been informed its a DA001. Chris

Chris' Vacs Oct 2014 I found it! Pic of my (Soon to be) DC01. The machine is in a very good condition and has been stored in a cupboard all its life! Will wipe the bumper over when I get it. Thats your lot! Chris
