As for the decline in Dyson sales. Most consumers have recently confined spending to only the necessities. Not much left after froceries and gas.
Hello HARDSELL:
We finally agree regardless of the reasons. We can argue the specifics butas you say new dyson sales are off in 2007 and 2008. Gas will probably go to $6-$8 a gallon at the current price of $140 for a barrel of crude oil. Food prices will follow the upward trend too. Why? Inflation has reared its ugly head according to Ben Bernanke at the Federal Reserve. No more interest rate cuts this year to stimulate the recession. Dysons sit on store shelves unsold. Retailers are cutting their losses and culling dysons off the shelves to make room for other merchadise and make money. Carmine D.

Hello HARDSELL: Regardless of the reasons, and we can argue the specifics, new dyson sales fell off in late 2007 and still way off now in 2008. Gas will probably go to $6-$8 a gallon at the current price of $140 for a barrel of crude oil. Food prices will follow the upward trend too. Why? INfaltion has reared it ugly head accrording to Ben Bernanke at the Federal Reserve. No more interest rate cuts this year. Dysons have sat and will continue to sit on store shelves unsold. Retailers are cutting their losses and culling dysons off the shelves to make room and save money. Carmine D. That is what I have been saying. You try to twist it so everyone thinks that it is due to poor performance.

It's both HARDSELL: Fair to middlin performance at the highest vacuum prices and consumers' cutting back. Put the two together and dyson goes to the mat with a one-two knock out punch.
You're living proof of it. A former dyson buyer and user. Rave over it. Won't buy another dyson now. Returned the one you did buy because you were unhappy with it. Went with a $299 Royal Eminence instead. BAGGED no less! Talk about doing the twist! Carmine D.

I am a former owner of many, many brands of products. Only you have said that I would not buy another Dyson. I only said that I would never buy another Hoover or Oreck.
Pay attention.

HOOVER is a best seller and ORECK has the lightweight and hotel motel market locked down. They aren't depending on you. Dyson is. With supposedly 9-10 percent of the vacuum market in units, you let them down. Bought a bagged Royal for $299 and sold off your DC07. Nice twist. Carmine D.
And Dyson is not depending on you. Final time. I will buy another Dyson. At my convenience.
The fact that you use an Oreck as opposed to Hoover (which you sold) speaks how much you lied to past customers.

The fact that you use an Oreck as opposed to Hoover (which you sold) speaks how much you lied to past customers. Hello HARDSELL: You'll own another dyson if and when someone gives you one. You won't buy a new one. Not after selling the DC07 several years into using it; buying and returning a new dyson DC14 and then buying and now owning a Royal Eminence for $299 [bagged] instead. You're letting dyson down. Won't get a new one that way. HOOVER WT and ORECK XL uprights are tops in their class and very affordable. I recommend both for rug/carpet cleaning. The only caveat for ORECK is on very high shag carpeting. Better to buy a HOOVER/ brand model with a rug height adjustment. That leaves your free brand out too. Carmine D.

Hello DC18: Thank you. Dyson did the same with me here in the USA. Emailed back quickly and said it would pass my recommendations/suggestions to engineers for future consideration [height adjustment for carpets]. Despite the critical comments on the shortcomings of the HELPLINE support and inherent design weaknesses of the DC07 pink with respect to its difficulty in use over my carpets, the dyson email was very gracious. Carmine D.
Hi Carmine D
Good to see you passed on suggestions to Dyson. DC18

Too bad that Dyson outclasses them.
What about those years of selling hoover and telling customers that they were better than Oreck/ Is there any dout that you have no credibility?
