How fortunate!

So that's why you joined Vacuumland!

I take it by "daddy" you mean your father as daddy has another connotation in certain circles👬

Well I have given in and decided to try a new Dyson after seeing a 2015 DC40 for £185. I would have prefered the animal version, but it was not on offer and as far as I can tell, the only difference is the lack of the mini turbine head. First impressions are good. Far quieter than any other...

Thanks for that Nar. I don't think I'll be subscribing to Which? any time soon. I know the Sebo X1 had a best buy, but it was a long time ago.

Jeans and feet are porn for some folk. I have a regular viewer of my channel who is obsessed with my socks.

I'm sure we had something very like it in the first house I shared with my partner. It was soon ripped up and replaced with a nice neutral harvest beige carpet throughout the house.

Yes, the carpet is a dead giveaway. Whenever I see a Youtube thumbnail with that carpet, I know it's one of Alex's videos.

Could someone with a Which subscription please post the current best buys. Thanks.

Well Alex, you have put me off getting a new Dyson to test. I think you should make a video of your findings and make a noise on Dyson's Facebook page regarding the dust getting passed the cyclones and filter. Like Chris, I have never noticed any dust in the bag compartment of my Miele...

I'm not sure if Dyson invented the term air watts as I have Hoover brochures dating from 1983 that specify the air watts of cleaners. I seem to remember the first generations of Sensotronics had 250 air watts generated by a 1000 watt motor.

I can't remember if the brushroll housing vibrates when upright as the last time I used it was for the demo video. It is stored at my Mum's at the moment. I haven't sorted my dusting brush yet as it is still squashed, but I recently bought another cleaner with a distorted dusting brush that was...

That brushroll can damage certain carpets if you leave it in one place for too long and I wouldn't recommend it on hard floors. Mine is in storage at the moment but I must get it out again as it is a very good machine. I have done an unboxing and review too. Oh, that dusting brush is probably a...

I don't believe they used a crevice tool. I read about the testing procedure somewhere and the crevice refers to a gap, such as the gap you get in between floorboards etc. The test measures not only the dust removed from the surface, but also how much dust is removed from the gap.

I'm glad about that. White is the best colour for hiding any scratches. Hope to get one in February, it depends on finances.

10% off Bissell If anyone decides to get one direct from Bissell for £129.99, put BISS10 into the promotion code box and get a further 10% off. This seems to be a permanent discount from Bissell, but they may withdraw it at any time.

I have had this cleaner for a few months and have only kept it because it does a fantastic job at washing floors and above floor surfaces using the small washing nozzle. I find it very laborious to use for carpet shampooing and pretty tiring for hard floor cleaning, but because it cleans my...

The dust cup is 2.2 litres, so not a bad capacity for a bagless. I really like the look of this, though it has clearly been inspired by the GE Roll Easy, but a radical design for a modern vacuum cleaner. I will have to start a wooing Vax to see if they will send me one to review.

I like the look of the upholstery nozzle and the fact you don't have to use it with the crevice tool. I will certainly be getting the powerhead model but hope it will be white for the UK market as the black Sebo vacs I've owned showed every little scratch.

The suction is OK, better than a rechargeable vac but not as good as a full sized cylinder. I don't think it would be very good for carpet cleaning, but OK for quick pick ups. My full Youtube review should cover everything you need to know, but I won't be uploading it for a few weeks. I'll add...
