I have... Just been given one of these from a friend. The problem they have had with it is that grit makes it's way into the pivot mechanism. This leads to the cleaner head riding up off the floor as you push it forwards. My pal soon had enough of this! It's easily remedied with some WD40...

Parrwaz786 How do you like the contact head? I have tried to hard to like it, I hate it! It works really well in hard floors, but on carpet I feel it's over engineered jumping piece of crap. Not as bad in open spaces, but to me it feel uncontrollable in tighter spaces. I don't know how...

Enjoy! What do you think of its performance on hard floors? I had the classic model, and part from hard surface pick up i loved it. Even with clean filters and a new bag it still left grit and small stones after vacuuming. So it had to go.

Excellent! Be sure to give us a detailed review! What transformer are you using?

Trusty Dc02 My dad uses the same model as pictured in citroenbx's response. I got it off a neighbour, probably 13 years ago as they kept putting the yellow cone upside down in the clear bin. Stick the filters in the washer. They wash well. My dad's is used for the cars now really. He...

Well, you don't get hat everyday. Well played :)

Spiraclean.. Thanks for that, I am really greatful for the info. I have just sent them an email, I'll keep you up to date. It's only recently that I have given attention to what deep cleaners Royals are. I had seen the machine you mentioned on eBay too, but at that time I didn't know much...

Ornery! Ornery! Do you know if there is a 220v motor available for the all metal royal uprights?

Erm.. King Hetty?

I like a DC04, 07 and 14! I have always advised people to give the cyclones a good wack against the bin, or hard on the floor before emptying. To keep them clear, apart from the rooted 07's, obviously! The carpeted versions of all these machines can really fetch a lot of crap out of carpets...

I agree with Alex.. I often message sellers asking if i can arrange a courier, and 9/10 they are happy to oblige! Its sometime just hit or miss to whether they pack the its well enough for its journey.

Nice job Jacob! Don't forget this rare Dirt Devil Platinum. I haven't seen many Goblin Lasers with integrated hose/tools. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dirt-Devil-Platinum-Vacuum-Cleaner-/271448051691?pt=UK_Vacuum_Cleaners&hash=item3f33908feb

What is this Facebook group you speak of? ;)

How the frick did you manage to win that?

I will keep that in mind Alex. I have just moved to Salford too. How convenient! :)

Beko If that condition pained you, I have just come across this beauty!

There is no need to argue. Keep posts appropriate and set a better example for the younger enthusiasts on here.

I don't understand why you would bother to add to a thread that you don't care for? You don't like Dyson. That's okay, but some folk do. They work for some of us. It appears childish to fill a thread up vacuum suggestions, when it is completely irrelevant to the topic of the thread. And...

Yeah, I get that. But his question wasn't about what you thought of the Dyson. He has asked how he could get a Dyson imported. If you were wanting information about importing a Kirby, how helpful do you think it would be for people to try to convince you to get a Dyson? It wouldn't.
