@Vacuum Facts There is no strong evidence of Dyson durability issues?!? I beg you to go on Reddit’s sub dyson and explain to all the people there with their issues and how they are not true!

Or better yet ignoring all the feedback from your very own YouTube channel?

(Canned response from @Vacuum Facts incoming that these people have no valid evidence that they have issues lol)
 
only thing that's relevant: convincing, objective, independently verifiable evidence. It's what I present in all my videos

Except @Vacuum Facts when your “claims” are unequivocally shown are not “objective, independently verifiable.

Queue your response of “what claims, name calling, berating, etc.” (again for the countless time, if you want specifics you can simply search the history here or in your YouTube channel…)

blah blah. hot air. Come back when you've got something tangible.
 
@Vacuum Facts

I thought of this: Dyson V16 Piston Animal: The superior vacuum with a crippling secret

*Hypothetical review tries to explain why V16 got worse performance but most likely fails to reveal the modification needed to fix it*

How about a couple of 80 year old Compact Model 1s that still work as well as the day they were manufactured? I have two. They lack a power nozzle connection ( such things didn't exist circa 1944 or 45 when they were manufactured ) but their performance otherwise is comparable to a modern Tristar or Patriot. The inner cloth bag and disposable bag from a modern Patriot or Tristar drop with in to the original Compact. Or how about my dear deceased parents 56 year old Kenmore that I still have and still works as good as new? Actually better because it was able to be fitted with a modern pleated HEPA pre motor filter and synthetic HEPA dust bag. That is tangible durability. I'll bet the 43 year old Kenmore we use routinely to clean our home, and one of the best vacuums we have, is older than you are but there is literally nothing wrong with it. The thing just runs and runs. The suction motor is easy to rebuild when the bearings and brushes eventually wear out, an unavoidable consequence of use, and Ametek still makes new motors that fit these old machines. The motor in it now is a modern replacement. No need to ever throw it out. Given reasonable care it will last another 43 years.
 
Laughable, eh? This is a tired piece of embarrasingly pathetic illogicality, and it's hypocritical. Figures. I've used cumbersome, heavy, awkward, plug-in mains cleaners and would never go back (including Dyson machines). I've used bagged cleaners and I'd never go back. I've used cleaners with running costs and I'd never go back. I've used cleaners which tangle hair around a single straight floor roller and I'd never go back (including the Gen5). I've used cleaners which don't auto adjust to all floor types without head changes and I'd never go back. And so on and so on. Regardless of what the product is, the problems stem from the fundamental technologies being used. I'm aware of this because, unlike you, hypocritically, I've used the latest technologies and experienced them. I've also understood their evolution at a deeper technical level.

Arguing the Dyson stick vacs aren't durable without strong evidence of a wide range of widespread failures (distinct from single isolated issues) is nonsense because all mechanical devices can have occasional issues. Real weaknesses are things like needing replacement belts, filters, or other ancilliaries. Seeing claims of lack of durability without evidence is a mindless smear by the weakly positioned. Terms like "creaky squeaky hard plastic" are hallmarks of nonissues that show incredible ignorance, as cemented by mindless and childishly moronic terms like "Diesoon". You've come across very unrespectably because of all this. Don't bring up this silly, nonsensical non-argument again; it just makes you look incredibly foolish. If you think you're right about anything you have to say, come back with the only thing that's relevant: convincing, objective, independently verifiable evidence. It's what I present in all my videos and what gives me confidence, and others can manage it. You wouldn't know because you've never apparently bothered to properly and carefully watch any of them, it seems. You've never, ever provided a dot of evidence for any of your positions, except the history of cyclonic cleaners that no one sensible even argued about. This lack of strong supporting evidence is why you carry absolutely no respect whatsoever with me in your outbursts. You've demonstrated repeatedly to be a hollow talker, like many that loiter here. It was obvious from the beginning because even when I provided the quantified scientific explanation and maths behind an airflow correction factor for vane anemometers in pipes, explaining why it has that value that you otherwise just simply looked up and auto-accepted, you just brushed it off as gobbledygook showing you just can't be helped to understand low level, relevant details, and to have better grounding for your output—which is why it's so wonky and is clearly subjectivity masquerading as objectivity. This conflicts so strongly with your repeated statements about your past history in defence and engineering. No one in my team would survive 5 minutes if they didn't independently learn to establish what's true from first principles and be superior.

I have a track record of looking at old machines people have claimed are good without good reason. They weren't, and the pathetic crybabies kicked and screamed and cried rivers when the evidence showed as much. I have a track record of investigating modern machines that manufacturers claim or imply are market-leading. They weren't and I exposed their deception quantitatively. Tribal idiots kicked and screamed and cried rivers over that too as they defecated all over my YT channel in bizarre rage. I know what's true because the evidence shows it. If anyone thinks I'm a Dyson fanboy, they're going to be spectacularly embarrassed and exposed as the pathetic, ignorant, tribal fools the best of us already know they were come my V16 review—the first real reason to heavily criticise (and praise) a Dyson product, as the evidence will show. And it'll be the same evidence, I might add, that is used to praise and criticise all other products. I'm consistent; the whiny, tribal crybabies are not. And calling a spade a spade on my channel doesn't make me "rude" or "hostile" or "insulting". These are terms used by genuine pillocks to try and cosmetically smear when they've got absolutely no substantive argument of their own, so look out for the culprits and judge accordingly, as many do I now know. Fortunately, most people are positive and respectful, even if they disagree, and they're treated as such, but there are always a few rotten eggs with bad attitudes that need putting in their place—the bin. Until I arrived, they congregated here. Now they've scuttled off back under the bridge where they came from with all the other trolls.
Don't pop an aneurysm dude! But again, you have no actual hands on experience with high quality vacuums from companies like Sebo, Lindhaus, older Mieles, Electrolux AB, Lux International, Vortech XR3000 ( another great piece of European industrial design ), to actually know what the difference is between a high quality vacuum and a Dyson. A Lux D820 is quiet and soothing sounding, the exact opposite of the nails on the chalkboard wail of a Dyson or Shark. Same for the other brands mentioned. Quiet, refined, everything feels high quality to the touch. Metal wands instead of plastic. Durable. Lux even uses a woven cloth covered hose. If you have never used one you owe it to yourself to try one. Just try it and at least know. A D820 or earlier Lux is something you use for a lifetime and then pass it to your heirs.

Vacuum Misinformation does not appreciate the vacuum cleaner as an appliance. He just simply doesn't. Any vacuum cleaner that's not his beloved cordless Dyson he heavily disparages, dismisses their worth, diminishes any historical value they might have, and insults those of us who find those vacuums to have value worth defending. I do not care for Dyson cordless units but I can understand why somebody might find value in them. For some they have advantages and I won't dispute that. I'm not super into machines like Compact/Tristar but I would be a fool to dismiss their historical significance to the vacuum cleaner as a whole. Vacuum "Facts" does not give that same credence to those of us who have our own machines we like and prefer. He can't seem to wrap his head around the idea that you don't have to think a particular vacuum is the absolute greatest one ever built to appreciate it. Even if his claims of cordless Dysons being the best vacuum ever are true (thoroughly debunked at this point) that doesn't mean every other vacuum is worthless and can't be enjoyed for various reasons. I don't know why he's put himself in a vacuum collector space if he cannot understand that. I have several Vacuums in my collection that I don't think are the absolute greatest ever built but I still enjoy having them for their own Quirks and Features. I vacuumed my carpeted upstairs today with my black Kenmore Progressive Direct Drive. It's not built as well as a Sebo but it has its own unique quirks that make it fun to use. This concept just seems totally alien to Vacuum Misinfo

Waa waa. Fact denier. Conflates subjectivity with objectivity. Heard it all before. Waste of time.

Me when I don't have any proper counterarguments to the points presented to me.
In a sense you are guilty of what you accuse others of. Try an old Lux or modern Sebo. Test it like you test other vacuums. See for yourself instead of dismissing them out of hand.
There's no point. He'll use them, overlook or diminish important features/factors on the units, make a bunch of BS graphs full of a enough meaningless information to look legitimate, and use that "information" to conclude that they're bad therefore the Dyson cordless is better. That's his entire song & dance, it's so obvious and not clever.

Bingo. Bunch of data/charts, etc that may or may not have meaning and/or validity, nor connection to why that information makes Dyson superior. It is like he's using those facts and figures trying to establish that he's some sort of expert on the matter so we should all just take his findings and conclusions at face value, all the while ignoring the mountains of empirical evidence that is counter to his claims and conclusions.
