    Dyson Help!

    Thanks for the info! I'll be contacting Dyson this coming week to figure out a solution. Wish I has gotten the DC65.....The DC40 is terrible at cleaning carpet! Luckily I bought it for the purpose of cleaning my hardwood floors, which is why I need this stupid little wheel to work correctly!

    Dyson Help!

    Ok so this little wheel on my Dyson has either broken or bent because it's binding and scuffing my hardwood floors. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated because this is my daily driver and is only 6 months old. Oh! And excuse the tangled brush roll. The amount of hair that gets...

    How Do You Feel About "Wide-Track" Nozzles?

    Depends on the area I'm having to vacuum. In my home probably the smaller nozzle, but If I lived in a very large home the extra length might be nice. I will say one thing though.... I hate Oreck's, however they are wonderful for cleaning in between church pews! Other then that they are just...

    Rug Doctor Portable?

    Thinking of buying the new Rug Doctor portable cleaner. I haven't been satisfied with my Bissell Little Green since I bought it three years ago, so I'd say I'm do for an upgrade anyway. I like that the Rug Doctor has a power brush in the hand held nozzle similar to the Rug Doctor upright...

    Fantom Fury.

    parwaz786 I didn't create this thread to start an argument.... I never said I hated Dyson's, I'm only speaking from personal experience. I have used a Dyson DC17 and it wasn't bad, but I prefer the Fantom because I owned one as a child, It has sentimental value to me. To me it's not about...

    Fantom Fury.

    supper-sweeper I've never used a Dyson DC01 since I live in America so I cant judge, however I'm always totally amazed at how much dirt and cat hair that comes out of the rugs every time I use the Fantom. Haven't had the same results with either of my Dyson's unfortunately....I will say that I...

    Fantom Fury.

    Yes! I own two Dyson's myself. The DC07 and DC40 To me they are both great cleaning hard floors but American homes usually have thick pile carpeting and LOTS of it. The Dyson's seem to be lacking on cleaning carpet very well. That's just my opinion of course. To each their own.

    Describe your favorite vacuum in one word.

    American Made! Riccer/Simplicity! I know more then one word.... However, I truly believe they are the best vacuum cleaners being produced now days. Build to last, not to die in two years.

    FantomFan, You're right! That's why this machine is so important to me. My parents bought me this same model at Walmart for Christmas one year when I was just a little kid. I've been trying to get ahold of one for YEARS without any luck....This one however is complete with all of the...
