    collectible?

    Read In the description of the floor tool, it says how its not a clear one, but is actually a red, yellow and purple one - so is therefore a De Stijl Tool, not a clear one.

    Aggie McKenzie reviews vacuums for The Guardian

    Aggie It must be going back six or seven years now but there was a page of the then current Argos catalogue which showed all the 'Bush' vacuum cleaner's, and a caption saying something like 'Aggie McKenzie recommends Bush', although I'm sure she wouldn't after a few months!

    Goblin vacuum cleaners at Asda

    Suppose I suppose Chris there are always the Argos Value cylinders. Someone on eBay sells them refurbished with tools etc for £13.95 with free postage.

    Dyson dc07 hepa uk specification overhaul

    Tayyab... I'm pretty sure that DC14 model you posted is actually a Dyson, without being modified. My local church/event hall has one, but I may be wrong. There is definately a silver and white DC14.

    Dyson carpet washing

    Tayyab... You may think that the other members are nagging at you, but they're not! They are simply warning you of the DANGERS of doing this, and are therefore making sure that you don't sustain injury. If anything they are trying to PROTECT you.

    Dodgy vacuum repairs

    Floor-a-matic Here is a video from around 1989/1990/1991 showing what certain things go through with the BEAB and it also explains what the BEAB is.   Look out for the vacuums!   http://https//www.youtube.com/watch?v=GC0jMy5kzPg

    Dyson dc07 hepa uk specification overhaul

    Ah Very nice! Liked the colour scheme on these, thought that and the colours used on the Precision model from around 2008 looked very modern.   However I'm tickled PINK at the moment - hint,hint - over something i've recently bought on eBay, I'll leave you to guess what it is, although it...

    which is better?

    I agree with Chris. All the Panasonic's built in that style have been well built, unlike the Purepower's which have had known design faults since the introduction in 1997, and I have used the machines in question so I am talking of experience.

    Miele Revolution 600 S658 Problem

    Hello. Sorry if the title may sound a bit vague but I don't know a lot about Miele's, and I don't know the name of the problem.   I just today purchased a Miele Revolution S658 from a second hand/thrift type shop for £10. It was listed at £15 but I haggled it down to ten as it is very...

    When has Dyson...

    Ah Well, the Vax Power Pet's 1 is no more at the moment, I donated it, as well as a washing machine to a Church Organization that Joe's - Ultimatevacman - uncle works for which helps people who are just starting up, with no money, and helps them get on track.

    When has Dyson...

    DC33 Well, regarding the price, I've given it a jolly good clean, after a stripdown, as well as replaced either 3 or 4 seals on the body of the machine, and replaced the inspection pipe as it had a crack in it.   Bearing in mind the DC33 still retails for around £220, I'm aiming for around...

    When has Dyson...

    DC33 I do own a DC33, although I am trying to sell it at the moment.   When I got it I got a DC14 along with it, and I do believe the structure is similar amongst the two. For example, to me the DC14 & DC33 both feel quite short, and also more compacted and central around the base. Whereas...

    sad vacuum pic's have you got any?

    Hang on I thought this forum was for the preservation of vacuum cleaners, not just blatant destruction as seen in the above video's?   I'm surprised that many people just throw away Numatic's, as they are easy to repair and parts are widely available.   There are a few images that would...

    Dyson DC02 Floor tool

    Tool They must have done something right with that floor tool as it still comes with Dyson's today.

    Dyson DC02 Floor tool

    Yes That's the one, and that brochure looks the same as the one I own. I'm not sure where it is at the moment but I believe the tool was around the £35 mark.

    Dyson DC02 Floor tool

    Tool. It did come with the DDC02 & as an extra for a DC01. I have a 1997/1998 Dyson Spares leaflet which includes the above tool in Standard, DAS, Absolute & De Stijl.

    Dyson DC02 Floor tool

    Tool I have two of the below style tool, both in the De Stijl colours. I don't think this design below was ever used on a DC02, as I'm fairly certain they were extras for the DC01 De Stijl. I dismantled one once and it said it was 'Made In France', so I'm assuming its not a Dyson made tool. If...

    Dc01 silver yellow

    Nice I'm not a big DC01 fan to be honest, but it looks in good condition!   Just looking at the DC07 & DC14 in the background, how on earth did you get the bins so clear?
