I agree dyson is a company with great marketing and out of date products. What has it introed lately? Carmine D. What is out of date about Dyson products. The only new vacs on the market are Dyson copies. You say the ball started in 2005. How old is the Oreck????? The only thing current in the Oreck line is either a Dyson copy or a purchase of another line. Ol Dave and family pay bare wages and sell at exorbitant prices. No engineers to worry about. Sir James invests in product design rather than hoarding all the profits. Do you find yourself having to dust after running the Oreck since it only stirs up surface dust as opposed to pulling it into the bag?

I am starting to get lots of Dyson $#%* in for repair. I'm also finding out I'm not the only one. Seems the wiring "harness" that runs along side of the ball in the yoke is splitting wires and shorting out the PH and blowing PCB boards. I have to say I am SHOCKED at how thin and fragile the wiring is.
Hello Lucky1
Almost one year ago, the authorized dyson warranty dealer in Las Vegas told me he/his store refused to sell any new DC25 models because the motor wiring harness fails within just a few months of the sale. The wire is thread thin and the constant back and forth jerky motion of the ball movement breaks it in short order and the motor stops running. I asked back then here on this Forum if there was a recall/workaround by dyson for the problem but no dyson authority spoke up and out. The lack of response to my post gave me the conspicous answer.

Thats a shame to hear about the problem with Dyson DC25 wire harness. Ive had my Dyson DC24 for over a year now and it gets a lot of use and has been fine so far. I suppose though that vacuum cleaner stores and repair centres get to hear about the problems with machines as they have the unfortunate job of having to deal with the customer when they return back.
Hello bucks03:
Dyson dropped the ball with DC25. Pun intended. Carmine D.
