    DYSON TO MERGE WITH KIRBY!!!

    Oh dear you state such rubbish. You don't know anything about me. This is a god damn vacuum forum, not an electoral vote register. Is it that important everyone knows my real date of birth? I live independently, my father died in October and I am now supporting myself and my little sister. I am...

    DYSON TO MERGE WITH KIRBY!!!

    You blow hot and cold quickly sptyks. Right, we understand you are not fond of Dyson and you like Kirbys, but on every other thread you are bashing some other brand of vacuum that isn't Kirby and seem to belittle people who maybe do not like either bagged vacuums or kirbys. This is a vacuum...

    Dyson's new US lineup

    @niclonnic; It funny you mention Dyson and Apple being similar in term of loyal customers. Think it was an interview with James Dyson on fox news or something, he said him and Steve Jobs actually got on very well with each other and admired each other company nd products. Both are similar in...

    DYSON TO MERGE WITH KIRBY!!!

    Oh really? "delete the thread"? So literally no one of this forum can have a joke because a certain few are so damn touchy about their precious Superior American built Kirbys"? Hahahah! Numatic are a British company, British built. They are built in a part of the country with among the highest...

    Dyson V6 Absolute

    I am hoping to get one end of this month. Dyson said because I am a loyal customer, I will be able to swap my dc59 for an absolute and just pay the difference. Cant say fairer than that :) I am sorry to disappoint anyone and I am sorry to some I cant fault Dyson customer service, it is excellent.

    Need some help.

    Well I am sorry mate that no one has bothered to reply to your thread so I'll do my best. I had a powerglide a few months ago. Agitation was incredible and it seemed pretty durable, although there were some flaws. The swivel steering is very limited, but of course better than no steering at...

    Shark Rotator Powered Lift Away Stop Sale/Recall

    I would say you are both wrong. The reason German and British vacuums cost a lot in the US is mainly due to the taxes on imported goods, and larger taxes on German products which date back to the great depression where huge taxes were imposed on German beer when alcohol was banned. SEBO and...

    Shark Rotator Powered Lift Away Stop Sale/Recall

    I find it amazing that many German or British manufacturers such as Sebo and Numatic can build top high quality products for the same price Vax or Candy Hoover are charging for cheap throw away tat. A Henry vacuum is around £100 in the UK, made from quality materials such as ABS and stainless...

    Compact Bagless Vax canister vac: which one?

    jagodek02 Well I'll be the first to say welcome to VL as I can see you are a new member. Don't think we have many from Poland so that is nice to see. I understand in Poland they have different models. Some of the UK models are not available over there, but you seem to have done well there. Vax...

    Shark Rotator Powered Lift Away Stop Sale/Recall

    Buy German, or British, or American built where possible. This doesn't happen, and you will be helping a more local economy.

    Vorwerk KOBOLD VK150 - My new toy!

    sptyks, There are many other vacuums which are that sort of price which people do pay big money for, and just because it looks like a felix, doesn't mean it is similar or just a pretty looking version. It has a large brushless motor which is rare amongst vacuums, a special brushroll design...

    Vorwerk KOBOLD VK150 - My new toy!

    No. In Europe, and the UK at least, that is 7 Sebo's. Not everyone lives in the states :) Beautiful vacuum cleaner, the more I look at it. It has a brushless motor, only a couple of vacuum have them, to my knowledge only Dyson although doesn't some of the rainbows have them, or am I imagining it?

    Vorwerk KOBOLD VK150 - My new toy!

    Very nice looking vacuum, and still quite sebo esk looking somehow, especially with the dog leg floor head. The rhymes. I do love SEBO's, and the felix is my favourite vacuum. Just does everything so well. I do like your white tiles!

    New Dyson Cordless line-up UK

    The DC35 was only advertised really for quick clean ups. Depending on who you ask, the dc59 is also for quick going overs. The difference between the dc35 and dc59 is quite great, in terms of performance on carpets especially, as it has a completely redesigned head and brushbar. What I find so...

    Why does my new Sebo G1 make me depressed?

    I don't even know, I wouldn't be depressed with a G1. Sebos are fine vacuums, which ever one you have.

    Dyson DC55 Total Clean - Review and impressions

    @sprockkets ; I thought that sounded odd when sptyks said that. So called "windtunnel technology" (I think the word technology is over used in the vacuum industry) is more of a marketing gimmick than actually useful. I have had a couple of Vax's with it an notice no difference whatso ever I...

    Dyson DC55 Total Clean - Review and impressions

    Right, fail to see how I am intimidating. Was merely pointing out a few things and giving my opinion.
