    Dyson V8 Bin Issue

    Hi All, I have a slightly unusual post regarding my Dyson V8 and it is activating my OCD unfortunately. I've noticed when I go to pull up on the red lever to empty the product, the lid of the bin does not shoot open like it shows on the Dyson videos. The lid appears to need to be 'teased'...

    Dyson V6 Absolute UK Spec Cyclone Question

    Good Morning, I am looking to obtain a new cyclone for a Dyson V6 Absolute body as I have everything, but the Cyclone and the Filters, top and back ones. Question is, do I need to specifically get a cyclone for the V6 Absolute, or would any V6 cyclone assembly fit this model? I am only...

    Dyson Swivel Lock Replacment

    Hi All, I have managed to break to the Swivel Lock on my Dyson DC24 when I was vacuuming 2 years ago and managed to break the piece of plastic on the front that keeps the machine stable when it is standing upright. Now when I use the machine, the whole machine keeps on tipping side to side...

    Dyson V6 Absolute brush speed

    Hi All, I have a query regarding the brush speed on the Dyson V6 Absolute. Does the brush speed increase when the boost mode is selected? I know the main motor spins faster for more suction but from when I have used mine, it seems the brush is faster, but maybe I'm just imagining it. Thanks...

    Dyson cordless wands

    Hi all, I have a Dyson V6 Absolute that I purchased in May. I've already have had to request for a new wand to be sent out to me as the top plastic section of the wand that the machine clicks into has started to lift up at the front. If I keep using it, it will only result in breaking off...

    Dyson V6 Absolute

    Hi all, I purchased a V6 Absolute from Dysons Ebay Store, a refurbished model. I decided go get this as my car is far from my flat so need to be able to clean it. I also want a powerful machine to use in my 1 bedroom apartment. My DC35 serves me very well but I guess the V6 Absolute will last...

    I love the SEBO X1

    I simply love this machine. That's it really. Vacuumed my flat with it and it's great. 1997 X1 Loved the gliding action of this machine and the suction too. http://https//m.youtube.com/watch?v=h8ZObGob-WQ

    Dyson DC24 and DC35 vids

    Just thought if show my DC24 and DC35 in action. Got a bit of my washing machine in the background too but, I thought it's good to show a 5 year old DC24 in operation still. Still much prefer it over a soft flimsy feeling DC50 but I don't want to start a dispute here so it's just my opinion...

    Sebo vacuum cleaners extreme heat

    All, Been using a Sebo Felix machine recently and noticed how hot it gets. I know it's normal behaviour of the machine to get like that but considering its only 1300 watts, they feel like pushing around a giant Heater in the house. I noticed the K1 range get very hot too. Can understand as...

    Dyson DC24 Loss Of Suction. Cyclone Seal Issue

    Used my Dyson DC24 yesterday and realised that my DC24 has lost it's suction. I know it's due for a filter wash but I didn't think that was the issue. I have noticed for sometime since getting it back from repair that the back spine of the machine fine dust all on the back spine! I thought...

    Dyson DC35 Cordless

    I recently acquired a a Dyson DC35 from Dyson after many issues dealing with the company. Their customer service dealing with me has been first class. They certainly know how to please the customer. I still have an issue with my Dyson DC24 that has now randomly developed an issue with not being...

    Dyson DC24 broken again

    Hi all, At the end of May I posted my experience with Dyson repairing my DC24. They took over 3 weeks to sort out and in the end I had to get them to collect my machine from me and repair it at their head office in Malmesbury. Anyway, I got my machine back with a new duct housing (old one...

    New purchase VAX Mach Air Reach

    A friend of mine is going to purchase a VAX Mach Air for only £99 after we went vacuum browsing today In Johm Lewis. I showed her the Dyson DC40 & DC50 as she's very petite and we all agreed the Dysons are horrid with their cheap-feeling, bendy plastic parts. She really disliked how much the...

    Hoover branded machines sold in Dubai

    When I was in Dubai, I came across Hoover machines in Dubai. I recall these exact Vax Mach & power models being sold in the UK and Vax branding them as British designed. I know TTI make these machines and I'm wondering if any of the machines that say Vax on them are actually the result of VAX...

    Dyson DC40 Mis-aligned handle structure

    A while back I saw a Dyson DC40 in a magazine with a frontal shot. I noticed that the handle looked a little wonky. The main part of the machine was facing perfectly forward but the handle looked like it was facing to the left. I decided to visit the New Cross Currys store in South London this...

    Broken Dyson DC24

    I finished vacuuming with my 4 and half year old Dyson DC24 machine and I noticed on the side of the machine that encases the handle sides now has a crack in it. It's only going to be a matter of time before this snaps completely and this will mean that the wand will no longer stay in the...

    SEBO Felix Motors old and new

    Repaired a SEBO Felix machine today and just thought I'd take a picture of the motors. The one on the left is an Ametek made motor which was in the machines up until 2011, the one on the right is a B/S/H made motor, has more 'fins' in the motor housing and is still the current motor they use...

    My poor Dyson DC24

    Hi all, It's been a while since I posted in here. Hope everyone is looking forward to Christmas! Today I decided to empty out the bin and wash the filters on my Dyson DC24 which I've had for 4 years now. I admit I do not keep up with the filter washes as I should and especially as I've had to...
