Quick View On Dyson DC24

Dyson vacuum cleaners are supposed to be "The cleaner that doesn't lose suction"... Now, by that logic, you should be able to keep using the thing forever and have it just as effective when the canister is full as when it's empty, right? Well, this is not the case with Dyson DC24 vacuum cleaner. Why, how? Read the DC24 review and find out.

This issue is particularly noticeable on the DC24, which appears to have a fairly small capacity - about two goes round the house, in my experience, then it needs emptying.



On the other hand, emptying the DC24 is a breeze - just press one button to remove the canister, then press a second to open it (once it's over a suitable container, of course). Shake it a couple of times to get any loose dirt, and you're done.

The main selling point of this particular model is "The Ball" - rather than traditional wheels, this model has a large ball at the base (with the motor inside) that means you don't have to have the cylinder lined up neatly with where you want to go - making corners effortless! This does actually work - and is particularly noticeable when going up towards walls and doors; there's no need to get right behind it to push it forwards and back as with conventional uprights.

Sadly though, for edges, there are rather two many pipes around the foot of the machine to easily get into tight spaces like below a radiator or under a sofa, and this makes getting up to the edges a real pain sometimes. It's also asymmetrical - so you'll find that the left edge will often go right up to the wall, whereas the right one won't... this means instead of just vacuuming a hall in one direction, you'll end up following the wall around so that the same side of the machine is by the wall at all times.

The provided accessories include a crevice tool, a mini brush, and what I'm told is an upholstery cleaner - I use it for the stairs...
These all connect to the hose, which can be unclipped from the back of the machine.
There are two point of note about the hose. Firstly, the wand and hose are almost long enough to use this as a cylinder instead of upright... secondly, most of that length is in the wand.
This leads to an odd set of problems; for fiddly places, the wand is too long to handle, but the hose is too short to reach except at full stretch; most noticeable on the stairs.

The wand (the stick thing you pull out) can reach all the way to the top of most stairs when you leave the main body at the bottom and comes with 3 tools.
1. a thin nozzle which i use for getting into tricky places and edges of rooms. 2. The thin nozzle with brush which i use to clean pet hairs of them sofa etc and 3. a flat nozzle for doing had to reach areas and stairs.
The price is a little steep but overall a great product and with 5 year part and labour you cant go wrong.

With it's spinning brushes (that can be turned off for hard floors) and super-suction, the Dyson DC24 gets all floors very clean... for my somewhat cramped house though, I should have bought a cylinder machine.

Dyson DC07 Vacuum Review

You probably know that a Dyson DC07 vacuum cleaner is one of the most popular products from Dyson. But the question is, are you going to be satisfied with it. Well, you cab try to figure that out after you read this Dyson DC07 vacuum cleaner review and put some thought into it.

On first using the DC07 I first became aware it was much heavier than the DC04 and can be quite a lug to take up stairs but honestly when you see the performance of the DC07 you don’t really care how heavy it is as you know somehow you will get it up those stairs to vacuum the bedrooms and to suck up as many dust mites as you can.

When I first turned on the Dyson and lower the footplate to the carpet I was astounded at the effort I had to put in to pushing it, as the suction was so great. In a matter of minutes the cylinder was half full putting the bagged cylinder vacuum cleaner to absolute shame and me feeling disgusted that my carpet still had all that dust and dirt in them despite regular vacuuming.



The Dyson comes with the usual attachments, crevice, stair and brush tools as well as a telescopic hose that can extend up the stairs to allow easy cleaning. The telescopic hose is also fantastic for reaching up to the ceiling to eliminate cobwebs. The handle can also be removed from the hose to allow more flexible use of the telescopic hose in those hard to reach places that only a clean freak like me knows has been done but no-one else notices such as down the back of the radiators using the crevice tool attached.

The Dyson also allows quick disposable of the dust collected in the cylinder by way of a pull up clip and the dust emptying from the base of the cylinder when the cylinder is unattached from the vacuum.

After many years of owning a Dyson I am still amazed that it never loses suction and makes short work of pet hairs that most vacuums cannot tackle properly.

The sleek design of the Dyson DC07 means you will never be ashamed to have it on display in a corner somewhere instead of hidden in a cupboard because you become proud of owning it and like to show off the fact that ‘Yes I own a Dyson’. Or maybe that’s just me and I do need professional help.

A few years back we had some visitors who suffered with asthma and they said while they stayed at my house they noticed they asthma hadn’t played up as much as it usually did. They went home and purchased a Dyson.

I highly recommend this vacuum cleaner it comes with two years guarantee and the Dyson after sales is excellent, for my DC04 I split the electrical cord and they sent out an engineer the next day. He not only repaired the cord but also serviced my vacuum and sent out to me the following day other replacement parts such as brush bar and stair tool that I had damaged or over used and didn’t think would be under the guarantee but were.

I vacuum at least 3 times I day, because I am a clean freak, and my DC07 vacuum cleaner is just as good now as when I first had it.
