And the Tories never sold anything off then Benny? [this post was last edited: 5/28/2014-07:18]

Well, how did TTI get away with that? That is the most blatant copy of a SEBO G1 I have seen!

You have the patience of a saint - If it was me, it'd be in the dustbin by now and its replacement wheeled in , and it wouldn't be a Dyson!

Today, I bought another Miele vacuum - the S8330 Medicair that's been on sale in Currys for £149. At that price it was too much a bargain to  miss. It comes with the Allergotec floorhead with the traffic light system that shows Green, Orange or Red, depending on the dirt level it picks up. It...

I think the people of the UK are only interested in Bagless vacs, whatever the brand, and Vax sell much more in the UK than Dyson. The market for used and "re-conditioned" Dysons is bigger than that for new Dysons nowadays, with the likes of ebay awash with old Dysons that people have pulled off...

Tom wants a Dc03? I suppose he wants it for the vacuum cleaner museum, as they never got the DC03 in the US. I hope it arrives there in one piece - you know how fragile old Dysons can be lol   I prefer the Riccar versions too - the Simplicity is nice, but not as nice as the Riccar. I love...

Jolly good - is he doing them for you at a competitive rate? (Tom that is)   Still not sure about the Truvox - getting parts for them isn't easy, as they are strictly commercial vacs. not keen on the orange cable either. Postage is high as its in Ireland.

Was considering this Seamus - its the latest Truvox Valet - what do you reckon? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161292983243?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

£21 delivered from the US is very good Seamus - would pay you to get the filters and bags and maybe a spare belt at the same time to save on future shipping costs.   I saw that Kirby bag seller - am always dubious when they are that cheap and have free postage. There's gotta be a reason why...

I wont buy any Dyson made after the DC19. I consider that's the point when profit took precedence over quality and customer satisfaction. The DC24 was not a patch on the DC15 in terms of build quality, and the DC27 and DC33 were a step backwards from the DC14. The current Dc40 and DC41 are...

Seems bags are easily available here too for the same price we pay for Kirby bags (Inc shipping) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Riccar-Simplicity-Upright-Vacuum-Cleaner/dp/B00BZBNDFW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1401011824&sr=8-3&keywords=riccar+vacuum

Those are great pics - what a beautiful machine! and congratulations for bringing a Riccar to England, and we will look forward to seeing your review once you get to use it properly. If its as easy to get one of these over from the States, then more of us should start buying them. Of course, we...

You've got me busy looking through all the Simplicity and Riccar machines on ebay now - theres quite a few where the sellers are prepared to ship to the UK, but like with yours, once the shipping and import taxes are added on, they are knocking on for £300 odd. And they are only lower end models...

Is this the Truvox upright you have Seamus, if so, you can see the similarities to the Tacony Clean Max range from the US http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Truvox-Valet-Quickdraw-Up-Right-Vacuum-/151262803226?pt=UK_Vacuum_Cleaners&hash=item2337f7351a

Do you have any pictures of it yet for us? You should be trumpeting its arrival - its not every day such a machine that's not intended for the UK market arrives on our shores! I've wanted a Riccar for ages, but always been put off by the price of importing them. They aren't exactly cheap in...

So have you got the Riccar itself  now Seamus? but just waiting for the bags for it?   Could it be that you are the first person in the UK to own a Riccar Brilliance? I've never seen another UK member post about owning a Riccar.   Truvox in the UK is owned by Tacony Corp as far as I...

Thanks for posting those pics of your Windtunnel - although it looks similar to my Vax Mach 9 - there are more differences than I thought when looking at the back of it - even though both are TTI machines. I realise that bagged machines are not for everyone, and as long as you are happy with...

57 Chevy... Specially for you Super_sweeper, and this one was customised here in the UK!

The problem is that people don't realise that bagless vacs will cost them more in filters than a bagged vac would, and that bags don't clog now like the old single layer paper bags that Dyson refers to when he goes on about bags losing suction. Dyson is a very clever businessman, and will tell...

Its the power of Dyson's clever marketing - he has had a very powerful influence on people's opinions about bagged vacs. You could say that he has "brainwashed" them like a clever hypnotist.
