AnothersadoldgitI bought the original Dyson Dc01 back in 1993, it still works well. Since then we’ve had a couple of their light plastic models and they’ve been a complete waste of money. My Xiaomi S20+ is brilliant though
dinobug77I was about to say why all the Dyson hate as I had a DC01 and it was amazing. Had it for a similar amount of time and replaced bits as everything was screwed together and you could buy parts. Lost the hoover in a divorce and haven’t had one since. Shame to hear they’re shite now.
draxula16Ha, that reminds me of the Dyson DC01. I think OPs boss should just get a bagged machine, but man that Workhorse looks cool. Any experience using one?
grandmabcI had the original upright Dyson for many years, but when they brought out the cordless ones, I got rid of it. It was still working fine after many years of use. My cordless must be over 15 years old now, but still works great. I did get a new battery from Ebay which lasts longer. Very happy with it. Excellent suction and cleaning power.
LeafyCandySharks are good, but I’ve found that the only vacuum that “works” works is my dinosaur. First gen Dyson. I have cordless ones that do the trick (ish), but none of them hold a candle to my dinosaur.
MagHagzWe bought a Dyson 26 years ago when we got our first two Pyrs. We still have the Dyson and we still have two Pyrs. It’s worked like a dream with regular maintenance of course.
It’s yellow, I’m not sure the specific model. Our definitely has a cord. We got it right around the time Dyson came out with the purple (pet hair) model. We do take great care of this vacuum, we’ve replaced some parts and it’s really holding up well through 8 Pyrs and 2 Leonbergers. :) In fact, we just bought an off-brand extension hose for it.
Regor_WolfDyson first gen bagless. They are so hardy and last till now, 17 yrs already
sihasihasiVery hard agree. I had a DC01 - it was fantastic, and lasted for over 20 years having various bits replaced. After the motor finally seized, I bought a new model, and it was utterly shite. The filter-cleaning required, alone, was enough to make me hate it. Ended up giving it away and buying a Vax upright for £50 in a factory clearance.
