That is a wonderfull collection. I like the transperant dc02, I would love a dc02 and dc03 Clear

I love my dc11, Given to me by the MD of the company that imports the dysons to SA. It was his personal vacuum until he found out how much I liked that model but didn't have it.

Today I finally got this working
My Dc21 motor head.

I got it from a lady who's cleaning lady was extremely hard on it, It was then damaged in a flood.

When I got it on Monday the motor worked but the pc board was fried from the water damage.

As I am an extremely impatient person when it comes to new vacs I want to use and as this model was not sold here so I did not have the circuit board in stock I got to work and made a few repairs to it and now the motor head works. Its brush bar has been damaged by it been run on hardflooring without been switched off but even lik eit is its a powerful cleaner.

I changed the cyclone top cover from a silver one to a blue one from a dc19. I prefer it in blue

I took it home and Joanne's Favorite color is blue so I can have as many vacuums as I want as long as they are blue.

Recyclone

The Recyclone was a brain-wave that Dyson had, back in the later part of the 1990's. The cleaner was built using recycled waste plastic from the building of the regular vacuum cleaners, but the plan was that the Recylcone would be so popular that it would eventually be built from broken Dyson cleaners which Dyson owners had handed back to Dyson. The fact that the Recyclone was limited to just one model out of what seems like 100's which have been produced since should indicate to you how successful this scheme was.

I think the fact that the Recyclone was more expensive than the standard DC02 did not help sales either.
 
Dysons

Wow, there are alot of great pictures of nice dyson collections on here. One day I hope to track down a nice original dc01 and dc02 for my collection. Does anyone know how the dc01's performance compares with, say a fantom thunder?

i have a dyson dc01 standard for sale all original in very very good condition i can ship it anywhere the machine in £40 plus shipping
 
The Dyson DC01 has about 90 Airwatts, but the hose suction seems like a bit more than that, but the carpet groom,ing and the amount of dust it picks up is amazing, the hose is the longest out of any other Dyson, The tools are abit fiddly but are cool, this was improved on the DC04, there are still thousands of Dyson DC01's still being used, and on the street where I live, theres me and another lady who have DC01's
 
Dyson DC01 vs Fantom Thunder

Since I have both, I can answer as to how they compare. The Fantom's brush roller was much more aggressive. As the Fantom used a TWO FAN Lamb motor, it had a lot of airflow, but without a pre-motor filter, the Fantom's filtration was terrible. They didn't use a pre-motor filter because Fantom wanted to sell Hepa filter (at $75 a pop). The DC01, running on 240 volts, has more airflow and filters fine dust far better than the Fantom. Probably because there's more g-force at the tip of the high efficiency cyclone. Also, the DC01 was easier to work on and maintain. As far as cleaning an American carpet, the Fantom Thunder was excellent, the DC01 only average. But that's due to the brush bar design almost exclusively.
 
My 2 dc15's, This model was not available here either.
The yellow one is from the UK

The red one is Australian, It states it has Radix cyclone technology, Instead of the the normal Root cyclone technology

It took a call to an Australian friend to find out why it was not called Root cyclone technology, Well it seems a Root in Australia is a Slang word for, um coitus :)
