Soooo HS, that's how you came to get a free dyson DC07.  You won the boo-bie prize!  Lucky you! 

Like dyson giving away 140,000 Air Blades to jump start its sales.  Ain't working.  Donees did what you did!  Sold them and used the money for something else.

Hey Prez, you reading here?  I got an idea for an economic stimulus package.  Buy up all the new DC07 dysons that Wal*Mart dumped on dyson and dyson dumped on BEST BUY and give them away to the US taxpayers.  They'll sell them, like HS did, and use the funds to make new purchases.  Win, win!

Carmine,

I see you are still dreaming.  When you lose you resort to fiction and lies to divert your loss.

I paid $399 for the DC07.  Dyson does not have to give freebies like Oreck does.  I could really rack up if I wanted to.  Buy the Oreck, keep the gift and return the vac.  That is not me though.

I might believe that you were foolish enough to spend $2000 on new golf clubs.  After all, all men like their toys and are willing to spend lavishly for their enjoyment, entertainment, and recreation.

But even you HARDSELL would not be foolish enough to spend $399 for a DC07.  You said so recently.  No.  Not when you could have easily saved at least 20 percent at a number of retailers without any effort.  That's an $80 savings. 

NO you didn't pay $399 for a dyson.  Not when you got one free for using it and posting about it.  You told us that you wouldn't pay $399 for a DC07.  Too expensive were your own words.

Mole,

Vacuum/Bag manufacturers cannot guarantee 100% suction strength while using their product/s. - Dyson can.  So what does Dyson technologies have to do with performance? - Plenty.        DIB

If suction alone were the performance standard for uprights and rug cleaning you would be right.  It's not.  Just as MOLE's point that filtration and air flow are not the performance standard.  In fact far from it.

Don't believe MOLE  and me.  Read the post that Motor man has on another thread here.   Like you he is a dyson fan. 

Suction power [to pick up], brush roll design and function [ to agitate, loosen and groom], and filtration [to cool heated motor during operation and preserve the air quality in the room from the contained dirt/odors] all must combine in a perfect balance.  When these are present on upright vacuums the result is an efficient and effective machine to properly clean and groom rugs and carpets. 

Of course, it takes a user with the inclination, wherewithal, and time to put the vacuum to proper use.

A big point is that manufactures tend to get so caught up in high tech,that they forget about the customer and [USER BENEFITS].

How many times have you heard customers complain about kirbys weight and attachment useage?

Another point of intrest to me is that [DO people still have shag carpeting?],

MOLE

Hey Carmine Man,

At the end of the day it is about physics and who puts forth (the basics) a vacuum that best uses
”in the public domain” 1)  off the shelf parts and/or 2) designs.  I am fully aware it takes many individual lengths to build a strong chain.  Dyson simply removed the weakest length…  Suction loss due to a clogged bag (and filter).

Mole,

I answered your riddle within the framework of your post and no response?

Hey Mr. DIB's:

I like that but prefer:  Hey, Carmine D. Vacuum Man.  Now you're talking physics and chemistry combined! 

It's always funny to read dyson fans' posts.  It's as tho the vacuum industry was in the dark ages until dyson suddenly appeared and rescued it.  Not quite.  Not even close.  In fact just the contrary.  

Dyson has a rough road to hoe.  With the competition like HOOVER, BISSELL, DIRT DEVIL {and yes even EUREKA} copying it and selling for less, dyson with its high prices is destined for extinction.  Especially in a deep recession and down global market with soaring oil prices.

One quote from dualcyclone/motor [don't know which] that I agree with [surprise, surprise] is this: Consumers don't remember who did it first, they remember who copied the best and sold it for less.
