Dyson DC02

Advantages: Lightweight and easy to carry, hugs the stairs, one hoover copes with all types of floor.
Disadvantages: Gets hung up in pull along mode and it would be good if you could stick the attachments on the pole to hoover ceilings.

...sell. I bought a Dyson about 6 years ago, the minute I got the kind of job that allowed me to afford one. I had been desparate to buy one since their initial release. If you work and resent spending your weeks sweating blood for your employers and your weekends sweating blood to make your house look less like a nuclear fallout zone you'll understand where I'm coming from. Cut down the hoovering time and that's a whole hour for ME. That's the way ...
...Caio reviews etc. The Dyson is conceived and designed with the woman's attitude in mind, ie let's make this as quick and easy as possible so we can get onto something else. Even six (yes SIX) inch long cat fur is no trouble. On the downside, if you're hauling it along behind you it can handle like a supermarket trolly, it often gets caught up in its own flex and falls over. However, since it's easy to carry I often just pick it up and wander round ... Read review

Advantages: The first vacuum cleaner that didn't make me sneeze!
Disadvantages: Price, cost of replacement filters.

...with. Finally, we bought a Dyson and what a difference it made! MODEL The model we chose was the first DC02 to have a HEPA filter. HEPA FILTER DIGRESSION HEPA filters have been used for many years in microbiology labs to sterilise solutions, and have incredibly tiny pores (down to 20 millionths of a millimetre!). I was originally sceptical as to whether this type of technology would be suitable for use in a vacuum cleaner, since the filters are ...
...am incredible grateful to Mr Dyson for that! FEATURES The obvious selling point is the see-through dust collector, which looks very pretty in the shop and seems like a nice idea, but it's not much fun looking at your dirt continuously. My favourite feature is the retractable lead. Just step on the button and the lead and plug coil away into the machine. Brilliant. The cleaner comes with an array of attachments. There is a large dust collector, ... Read review

...decided to try a Dyson as I was hearing a lot of hype about them, also I was paranoid about the state of my house, after the Kirby demonstration! Within hours of opening the box and putting it together I was obsessed with my new dyson, and with vacuuming, a chore I previously hated with a passion! It is lighter than my old model (well the poor old thing was made in nineteen hundred and frozen to death!) and easier to empty although required emptying ...
...Simple as that! The dyson has a brilliant compact shape, it fits into a small space and makes storage easier. The rigid metal pipe slides into itself, so you can adjust the height, this is great for me as James loves to ‘hoover’ for me, and I can adjust it to his height! The shape also allows you to vac your stairs much more easily, as it sits on the stairs and doesn’t fall! It also radicates all the lifting and faffing about ... Read review

Advantages: You can see the dual cyclone at work
Disadvantages: Gets clogged up

...heard about the wonderful 'new' Dyson machines with their wonderful 'new' technology and their asthmatic-friendly approach to carpet cleaning, my beloved and I headed for our local Comet store and bought our first Dyson. We opted for the less-popular (but to our minds, exceedingly more funky and aesthetically pleasing) DC-02 for two reasons: 1) As we live in an old terraced house with an incredibly steep staircase we thought the dinky 'stair-hugging' ...
...about? Oh, yes, the Dyson DC-02. Well, we took our new addition home and, unable to contain our excitement, set it to work at once. It is at this point that the raison d'etre of the transparent plastic cylinder which is used to collect all the carpet debris becomes apparent. You begin to 'hoover' (or should that be 'dyson' instead?) your living room carpet and what happens? You see ALL the crap (sorry for the non-technical word there) that is being ... Read review

Advantages: you don't need bags
Disadvantages: still, 200 quid - for a vacuum!?

...over 5000 prototypes for Mr Dyson to get this vacuum perfect, and I just had to have one, ok, it was just over 200 quid when I bought it, but all I had was a "push-me, pull-me" thingy - not even electric! I chose the DC02 as it was really quite small and it could do the stairs without having to take the thing apart, this bit works really well, it hugs the stairs and because of its weight, it won't move until you want it to. Of course everyone knows ...
...(from last nights pizza!) The Dyson goes on forever, well, until it's full anyway! This is another cool thing about the vac, because it has a see-through bin, you can see when it needs emptying, no more bags means that he hasn't got a reason for not doing the cleaning (this is DEFINATELY a plus point!) beware though, when you do your front room (or living room for all you posh people) you'll feel really grubby..... the first time I used it - it was ...
