MY DYSON STAIR HELL
Jun 26 2004

Man attacked by his vacuum

By Bob Dow

HOUSEPROUD Norman Grant yesterday told a court how he was attacked by his new Dyson vacuum cleaner. The former offshore oilman was floored as he tried to clean cobwebs. A flying hose extension threw him downstairs and knocked him unconscious as he used it for the first time. The firm admitted liability for the bizarre accident. A hearing began at Aberdeen Sheriff Court yesterday to set the compensation. Mr Grant, of Mannofield, Aberdeen, wants £50,000 in damages. He said disaster struck the day after buying the blue and purple Dyson DC07. He told the court that he had read the instructions and turned it on, then fitted the brush extension. He added: 'It just broke apart and came back at me. Suddenly this flash came at me and something struck me on the arm. The next minute, I found myself at the bottom of the stairs. I came to, stood up and wondered what had happened. Mr Grant said he fell down 14or15steps and suffered head injuries and a broken wrist. He said: I put it together again. I could not see anything I had done wrong with it. Dyson said it was the highest technology in the world. His partner Jessie Jack said she was in bed on the Sunday morning when she was disturbed by a squawk. She said: I got out of bed ready to have a go at Norman for making a racket. But he was at the bottom of the stairs. It had whacked him on the head. Mr Grant said he had been forced to turn down a driving job due to the pain. His golf, gardening and household chores had also been affected. The case was continued to a later date for further evidence.

You DID use the $25 off coupon for Amazon housewares on that expensive Dyson, didn't you?

i got mine from costco for the supior returns policy

wish i could afford a Dyson. they consistently get awesome reviews.

I finally pulled the trigger and bought a dyson last week.
I can't believe how well it cleans- everything everyone says is true.

KIRBY!

 

[Doggiedog]

I just got my refurb Dyson this weekend from Amazon for $250.

This thing is unbelievable. I had half a cannister filled with dirt from just vacuuming a small rug. My POS Hoover upright bagless vacuums absolutely nothing. The cannister never fills with anything.

My wife is absolutely thrilled with it.

The only problem that I have with it though is that you can't vacuum mats with it since they stick to the nosel.

Great recommendation and purchase.

brother got a kirby diamond edition w/ all attachments

on ebay for $800 brand new

still an insane price for a vacuum let alone the $1500 retail

LnT carries them and they have like 20% coupons almost all the time. Also you can do those gift card deals where you get the cards for 20% off at stores like target. I believe the yellow base model is 400, so you could pick it up for 320+tax.

Thank you for reminding me of the Linens-n-Things 20% coupons. I have like a dozen of those things.

usually these coupons exclude dyson as well as some various other things

but maybe you can get lucky and get a cashier that doesn't check

I have a Kirby Gen3 Upright and it is simply amazing. I love the transmission and the suction is unbelievable. So many attachments.

Update: One other thing about the Dyson. I run air filters both in my basement and upstairs; since buying the Dyson I've noticed the cleanable filters inside aren't as dirty, by a noticeable degree. I think the filter in the vacuum does a better job than the Eureka it replaced, as it doesn't kick out as much dust or carpet fibers. Also, used the cleaning agents the vacuum caem with for the first time awhile ago and they did a great job, unlike the various powders and sprays I've tried before.


Hats off to Mr. Dyson! :thumbsup:

I hope you are not using the suction for something else...

Don't those say that they exclude Dyson? Or do only the ones from Bed Bath and Beyond say that?

 

[OutHouse]

the best vacume we had was a Phamtom. man that thing ruled but clogged easy with the dog hair. then we bought a new kenmore canister and that thing is terrible. it breaks all the time. I have been looking tat the dysons and when i have the cash im getting one.

I have a dyson. It's a work of art.

 

[0roo0roo]

nice gadget. doubtful that its works well enough to really justify its price. doubt it cleans over 3 times as good as a 150dollar model. its not like normal vacumn bags take years to fill chock full of dirt or anything.

 

[imported_Phil]

We have a second-hand Dyson (bought from eBay), and that thing is incredible- I hoovered the house with the old cleaner, and then went over it again with the Dyson - a third full. Money well spent.

You should try one, you will change your opinion.

Not only is the dc7 a powerful vacuum cleaner, I am amazed at the way it is designed. Everything just works the way it should.

eh imho the build quality seemed a bit.. shoddy... like the parts don't all fit together perfectly; especially where the filter is.


That being said; the canister FILLS up in one, maybe two vacuum sessions. I've never seen a bag-type vacuum fill up that fast which means the dyson must be picking up junk that the others aren't.

I'm not a fan of how the hose works; nor how it makes a horrific noise when you do something it doesn't like (go from vinyl kitchen floor to carpet; or switch the lever to/from vinyl to carpet...


other than those quirks I love mine.

I thought that too at first, until I found that you can remove almost all the parts from a Dyson to clean them- that's why they don't fit together all that well. Still, saying that, mine works perfectly- the rubber seals do a pretty good job.
