[QUOTE="ohio_tuec, post: 60058, member: 109"] The reason I attack Dyson so vehemently is I AM SICK AND TIRED of people on this forum bashing the Oreck unjustly! It's not gonna be a superperformer on every type of carpet. In some mind's eye it's not a superperformer at all. It does not have powerful suction. It doesn't need to - just enough to draw the dirt into the cleaner after the agitator loosens it. It's not meant to be used with tools - that's why they give you the Buster B. Again, I can't comment on the Riccar because it again is a machine I know nothing about. The Dyson is not without flaws, and we need to spend more time focusing on that than bashing a machine who's design has been around for some 40+ years. RCA/Whirlpool's original design was not rejected, they simply chose to downsize their vacuum cleaner division and David Oreck bought it. To me, the Miele canister is another overpriced brand in this country, and I would rather have open heart surgery than have to work on one. It too is a very complicated machine. I'm not bashing them in the least, I'm just not interested in owning one. If people on this site could just say that Oreck is not their cup of tea and leave it at that, I would be fine, but to blatantly call it "junk" when most of you have never even owned a brand new one is unjust. I will defend Oreck to the death! [/QUOTE]
