Why clutched Dysons are bad for deep pile carpet

The video shows that the Dyson fails to pick up 100% of the washing powder on the floor. However, this is not a controlled experiment showing other vacuums picking up 100% of the powder. If you want to show that clutch based Dysons are failures, it would seem that you would need to have a control group of non-clutched vacuums for comparison purposes. Who's to say that the non-clutch models would pick up 100% of the soap powder. This may also demonstrate a failure in vacuuming method. Sometimes with sticky particles you have to vacuum from a different direction. Perhaps if you rotated 90 degrees, it would have picked it up just fine. Given that this is washing powder rather than dirt, perhaps the washing powder has bonded to some of the moisture/sweat/oil/dead skin cells in the rug.

I thought of this video idea after I noticed when after vacuuming my bedroom carpet, I noticed there was debris inside then I uses tshe stair tool in confined spaces, more larger bits were hiding inside! And yes, I vacuum in more than one direction

You're video is very helpful. It shows a failure of your Dyson upright to pick up debris from the rug. It's still a mystery whether a newer Dyson without a clutch would pick up the lingering detergent powder- at least until it faces the same test. Even the best vacuums don't remove all the debris from rugs.
