Dyson and Tv

[oldskoolguy]

So, I’m starting to think that Dyson might be the most shown vacuum on tv, not in terms of commercials but in terms of appearances on/in TV shows (doesn’t have to have even be used during the show) it may just be me, but whenever a vacuum is visible (i.e. not in a closet), it’s most always a dyson. Is it true that dyson could be the vacuum brand with most appearances of cameos?

On that note, I think I found Dyson’s earliest cameo: a 2004 episode of The King of Queens. It is a DC07 animal

Maybe Dyson's marketing dept. is just on top of things like that.

On a side note

I don't know what episode so I can't grab apicture but there was also a Eureka Victory Enviro Vac in King of Queens.

I think a lot of times it might be a product placement, and the vacuums used on set are just display models donated to the prop warehouse. The DC07 came out in 2001 though.

Someone should make a thread for "As Seen On TV" vacuums to gather pics of all the different kinds of vacuums used on TV shows. I seen an I Love Lucy episode on TV a cople years ago, it was the one with them washing the huge bag of pennies, and they used a Hoover to vacuum them all up!

I don't know the exact model, but it looked like this:

FUN topic and great idea!

These are just a few I could find quickly, and I know of a LOT of other shows that have vacuums in the background. I pay close attention to this as a vacuum collector and I remember seeing about 6 different models of vacuum cleaners on Mike and Molly.. from a Dyson to a Oreck Bagless.

Barbara Jean on “Reba” used a Dyson DC07 at her house and then when she was vacuuming at Reba’s house, she was using Reba’s Dirt Devil. I just can’t find pictures of those two scenes yet..

Oh and Vanessa on “Last Man Standing” used a Dyson too on the episode where they hired a housekeeper to help her.

And who could forget the Rainbow on “Everybody Loves Raymond?” A classic.

And the old Hoover upright with the looong shut down used by Rhoda’s mother? Another classic.

Who here has seen Mrs. Doubtfire? Mrs. Doubtfire famously dances with a Hoover Elite II in that film.

Dyson and Tv

Wow, It is the coolest model from 90's. By the way, guys from https://bestvacuum.reviews/shark-vs-dyson/ made one review for all models of Dyson and Shark. They take a big travel through the time of the competition. I have learned a lot from their post.

In 2002, Dyson gave a brand new DC07 to everyone who got a gift basket at the Emmy awards. That's how so many of the yellow DC07's got on TV. From producers, to talent, to craft people, all got a free Dyson. You'll know those are the first because the bin door is yellow and not clear.

I think the DC07 on Friends was the first appearance of a Dyson on American TV.

Friends also had Courtney Cox's own Rainbow PE on the show, it's long run down could be heard for 30 seconds after she shut it off.
