    Dyson DC02 - I now have one :-)

    I didn't think the suck was too bad on them.. I didn't rate the floor nozzle though. When they changed it to the head the didnt have to be adjusted to the floor to I think if improved the performance of the machine loads! I have also found that with the DC05 head with 2 channels on the bottom...

    Hoover Turbopower 2 Autosense U2464

    They are the same hoses.. Which are on your machine. Which are narrow for a clean air upright. It's funny that you should say that about the auto sense of the turbo 3. I havnt heard it before but I did think that the machines I had's auto sense wasn't as good as I'd remembered..

    My Hoover Vortex Of Sorts

    Jakesvacs Both. It has the same pleated filter below the bin, and another that sits on top of the shroud. If I remember right you removed the bin, and then had to twist the shroud a quarter turn to remove it, the smaller pleated filter would be sat on top of the shroud with a inner foam liner...

    To gsheen. Advice on wet Dyson Filter

    I like them thoroughly clean so they go in the washer with biological washing powder and an extra rinse. (low temp quick ish cycle) there are nearly dry and look as new when you take them out. I have done this with the pleated exhaust filters too. But don't imagine it's much good for them as...

    Hoover Turbopower 2 Autosense U2464

    I love these machines. There bloody work horses! I have just sold mine to my aunt. It is a turbo 3 and needed to have a life again! (I'm try to cut way down on the amount I have. Passing them on to friends and family is quite good as I can still use a particular model of I need to! Luckily I...

    My Hoover Vortex Of Sorts

    I had that machine some time ago! My local chemist had thrown it out, so I took the motor out of my then pure power so I could use it! Dyson sued them as they had copied there technology. Personally i don't think it moved as much said as the dyson. The exhaust on the cyclone is small and...

    I didn't think so. From the reviews that I read of the cleaner at the time I think a little cyclonic action may of helped! :/

    The best straight suction canister is...?

    Gareth, Do you think that the 'db' machines are actually quieter? I tested one out last week and didn't think it was any quieter than my DC19T2. I have the carbon fibre attachment for the dyson and it removes fine dust like a son of a bitch. I completely picks up all talcum powder off the...
