    DDM Press Launch: The Videos

    Blimey Jack, how you managed to stay awake is incredible. Mr Dyson may have shaken up the vacuum cleaner industry, but he has absolutely no charisma. I hate the way that he and his company seem to rubbish existing technology, ie cleaners with four wheels, carbon producing motors, yet still...

    Shame about the brush roll being black. My DC27 Animal is silver to match the cleaner. I still don't rate mine after using it some more and I may sell it on soon. I agree that the click fit tools are a good improvement, but the brushroll tends to collect dog hairs far more than a round one...

    Hoover Vortex V2000

    Calum I had a few models with the Turbo 300 head. I think it was called Turbo 300, not 500. 300 because it was 300mm wide. It was the best power nozzle Hoover made, better than the Electro Kinetic head fitted to the early Sensotronic and Compact Total System. My favourite cleaner with the...

    Hoover Turbopower 2

    Here's another beauty. A Turbopower 2 made in 1992 that has only been switched on for a few minutes. One of the last decent Hoover uprights, well built, relatively quiet and great performance. This example is a later version. The first version had a spring loaded bag full indicator in the...

    Hoover Vortex V2000

    Howard I believe Hoover called the beater bars beater pads and were first seen in Hoover's Turbopower range introduced in 1982/3. Hoover called it an 'activator' and claimed it reactivated the fibres of the carpet, which it did, very well. I'm sure other members will agree with me that the...

    Hoover Vortex V2000

    Yes Chris, the Vortex was a much better performer than the DC01 and better looking. The dust container was easier to empty too and the tools were easy to use. Although based on the PurePower, the Vortex was better made, but then it was made in EC (I assume Portugal) and the quality was better...

    Hoover Vortex V2000

    Hi everyone, I'm at my Mum's sorting out the bulk of my collection and rediscovered this little gem that I've owned from new and has had very little use. This is the model that forced Dyson to sue Hoover for patent infringement. I really like the Vortex, it has one of the old style Hoover...
