Dyson DC01 Reviews

We have had this vacuum cleaner for around 3 years and cannot really fault it. It has excellent pick up- better than any other manufacturer that i have used in the past. One thing that i would comment on is that there are 3 people in our house with long hair which obviosuly gets on the carrpet. This Dyson is maybe not the best equipped to deal ...  Read the complete review

There is something quintessentially English about the way we support the underdog. We love to see Goliath brought crashing to earth by a David. We even seem to prefer the plucky Brit gets heroically beaten story to one of domination by a another sportsman. So the story of James Dyson's attempts to take on the worlds vacuum cleaner ...  Read the complete review

For anyone who has never experienced a Dyson vacuum cleaner, it’s not always throwing away good money on a poorly thought out machine, but rather the abuse that most Dyson models suffer from by the owner’s neglect. As a vacuum cleaner collector I’ve only ever had a few Dyson models in my collection and after owning a DC01 from new for a couple of ...  Read the complete review

When we went looking for a new "hoover" we knew what we were looking for. Compared to the old one, we wanted it to be more powerful, quieter, cleaner, lighter, more reliable, cheaper to buy and easier to use. Unfortunately, the DC01 turned out to be none of these. Power I can't challenge Dyson's claim that the ...  Read the complete review

I bought my Dyson nearly 8 years ago. It is the original DC01 model, and I got it through distribution for the paltry sum of £140, when they were still £200+ in the shops. For the first few months, we got on brilliantly. The suction was fantastic, and it brought my carpets up in such a way that I immediately binned the VAX which I'd ...  Read the complete review

James Dyson, the inventor of the bagless vacuum cleaner. He not only deserves recognition for his achievements but also for his incredible perseverance. It was through his own disappointment with his current cleaner that he embarked upon the long and arduous task of inventing a cleaner that provided 100% suction. ~~~~ THE MAN HIMSELF ...  Read the complete review

Before you read the rest of this (which still applies) I wanted to tell you I now have a DC07 which is just as good and has overcome the minor problems of the original models. I presume the DC14 etc also have new features such as completely removable air paths and flip bottom emptying canister, which makes the Dyson the only machine to own, get ...  Read the complete review

Rave reviews and that funky styling led me to shell out close on £200 for a Dyson, but oh what a let-down. OK, so there are no bags to change, but filters need to be replaced every month or so or the suction disappears up its own pipe and then there were the blockages..... Perhaps I'm a mucky pup, but it was all those dog and cat ...  Read the complete review

In spite of some of the negative attention this vacuum cleaner has received, I believe it is unique and unbeatable. We have had ours for about three years now and never once has its performance disappointed me. It arrived with clear assembly instructions, and within just a few minutes was ready for its 'test run'. In spite of the ...  Read the complete review

Right, once you have established that this indeed is the right area for the opinion I am about to write, you may relax and feel relieved that it is not to do with any Anne Summers products, and that I have not been hit by temporary insanity. This is about the Dyson DC01. I warn that this is information I have gathered, as I ...  Read the complete review

This bagless mean machine leaves no stone unturned, its suction power makes sure of that, any dust and dirt on the carpet, curtains, sofa etc.. will be collected with force into the Dyson vacuum. If you think your carpet is clean then think again. I thought my carpet was spotless until I bought the bagless Dyson DC01. The truth is there is no ...  Read the complete review

I was brought my Dyson DC01 DE STIJI by my dad as a house warming present 3 years ago and can not fault it in anyway it does a superb job, it really does. It cost £270 3 years ago not sure how much it costs now but probably around £250, it’s colours are purple, red and yellow. This Dyson is an upright cleaner with a very powerful ...  Read the complete review

The DC01 was one of the first dyson products on the market, I bought mine about 4 years ago as I had heard so much about them and we do tend to get through an awful lot of vacums in our house, Dyson are now on the DC07 model but so far the 01 has performed well and therefore not yet in need of replacing, a bit of a miracle in our house. ...  Read the complete review

My previous hoover was a VAX; not the prettiest thing in the world but effective. Caught up up in the Dyson hype we bought a DC01 which was one of the most expensive on offer, so we expected a lot. It is good at cleaning carpets in the upright position but poor at most other things. It blocks easily, even with small bits of paper for teh body and ...  Read the complete review

The model I have is the DC01 Absolute with HEPA filter to filter out bacteria and fine dust from the air. The DC01 is an upright cleaner with a 1200-watt motor and the Dyson duel cyclone system. This means that you never have to change a bag with this cleaner as it doesn?t have one. There are two filters that need to be changed ...  Read the complete review

Captain Kay speaking. Please stand well back, this machine is powerful. I'm fully trained and I've got the right equipment to handle this beauty. In the wrong hands it could be dangerous. Only the other day I heard from a friend, who had heard it from a friend's friend, that one guy ended up in hospital with a section of this ...  Read the complete review

Well I decided to check out my neighbours Dyson that she had raved about since spending over £200 on it. I thought if it really is that good, I may just be able to live with " toy town " colour scheme. So we conducted a scientific test, she cleaned my hall carpet - all over, with the Dyson. Initially I was very impressed to see ...  Read the complete review

4 dogs and so much hair! 2 years ago I bought the DC01. I had vacuumed that morning, but wanted to try out the new Dyson. What a shock! I don't know if they purposfully show you the grit and grime in order to make you realise just how filthy your house is, or if it actually makes the suction power greater! Either way, the ...  Read the complete review

I was looking for a new vacuum cleaner and I had heard conflicting reports on Dysons. There seemed to be little middle ground between those who loved and despised them. A friend already had a DC02 so I asked if I could borrow it for a few days. On first impressions, it seemed quite plasticky. I tried emptying the canister and it was quite ...  Read the complete review
