These 25 customer reviews represent about $12,000-$13,000 of product.  New technologies that work...sell.

But, the real question for you/dyson is:  Will they sell enough to keep the dyson ball rolling....no pun intended...time will tell. 

I'm pleased you used the total retail value of $12,000 to $13,000 for these 25 sales and not $15,000.  The MSRP of dyson's Airmuscle DC28 was $599.... but within just a few weeks of its launch was advertised and sold for $500 by BEST BUY stores........and still.

Procare,

I’m sure you’d agree 5 out of 5 is a good start.  And certainly better than reviewers claiming Dyson’s new technology as junk; as do the resident vacuum bag huggers.

DIB,

  You refer to the technology as new. new it is not . It is an old technology put to the vacuum cleaner .That is the reason it states ROOT's cyclone. Roots Blower came up with the technology before the turn of the century. It is just an innovation.

As well as rug height adjustments, like LOW, MEDIUM, and HIGH, tho brand new for dyson and DC28 Airmuscle uprights, have been a staple of the vacuum industry for almost as long as vacuums have been.

Carmine,

I know not knowing your topic sells inside vac shops.  On here, when you dumb down patentable technologies or new technologies it's conning - or is it that you cannot get your head around the vacuum's technologies?  The Dyson pile height adjustment is done by raising and lowering the brushbar within the nozzle cavity and in concert to the nozzle being [Air] muscled into the carpeting. 

I say this DC28’s new technologies are candidates for a lighter next generation lightweight.  In concept, the vac works as advertised, only it feels heavy.  The DC15 proved the Ball concept and ultimately sold huge via lighter versions.  I’d expect lighter version/s of the Airmuscle to do the same.

You just don't get it. the MARKETING is making the sales not your blind fetish for technology. I don't know your relationship with the company but it's pretty typical of the Dyson people I have dealt with. It's all about INITIAL SALES. You don't care/have respect for the Retailer, The Warrantee and worst of all the Customer. These are merely an inconvenience for your company. While I appreciate your blind loyalty I also wince at how selfish and simplistic it is.

Lucky1,

I may be unaware, but I think you have yet to post your wares by brand, model/s, bag costs, cost to keep suction at 100%, and by price.  I think a more-level playing field makes for more fun, don't you?

More accurately, not maybe, but you are unaware. 

I know the vacuum brands Lucky1 sells by his posts here.  It just takes reading and keeping up with Lucky1's posts, which you most likely haven't done. 

I don't ask the prices of these vacuum products because I know that as nationally recognized vacuum store brands these prices are pretty much standard for the industry within a specified hi-lo range.  I also know personally and professionally that vacuum consumers who buy from independent vacuum cleaner stores do not make their purchase decisions solely on price.  I'd say with 100 percent assurance that price is not the most important factor.  It is customer service: which is priceless.
