Dyson DC04SL

I've had my Dyson DC04 for almost four years now. And so far it's been very loyal and served me well. I only hope it doesn't break down as soon as I finish this review- that's what I usually find happens when you start bragging about your gadgets! Anyway back to what I was saying, in the entire time i've owned my vacuum, I can only remember two occasions when I experienced a slight glitch with it. Both times it was my use-less hubby's fault and could of been easily avoided. The first time was when he vacuumed over a some sharp matter on the floor that snapped the belt. This I simply solved by replacing it with another belt that I bought for three pounds from ...  Read the complete review

I have had my dyson for about 2 months from reconditioned and so far I am very pleased with its performance. Manoeverability: Once you get used to having to put your foot down on the front and bending the handle backwards it is quite easy to move. The flex is nice and long so you do not have to keep plugging into different sockets to do long rooms In terms of performance: Strong suction, you only have to go over an area of average soiling to get all of the dirt up. When I first used it I was discusted at how much dirt was in my carpet despite it looking clean. If i had pets I would imaging this is a god send. It is great if you have stubborn ...  Read the complete review

I'd always wondered what the fuss was about Dysons, what could be so wonderful about their “Dual Cyclone” technology that meant they were over a hundred pounds more expensive than a standard vacuum cleaner? Well when our last bagless vacuum cleaner bit the dust (so to speak), we decided to find out what all the fuss was about and began to search on-line for our very own Dyson. After searching on several sites and deciding whether we wanted a cylinder or upright cleaner we came to a decision and bought the DC04S/L, an upright cleaner which to be honest is the bottom of the range. ~~~Setting the Dyson up~~~ The Dyson comes part assembled in a large ...  Read the complete review

To be honest with you I absolutely hate housework, if I can find myself something more interesting to do trust me I will sounds quite bad really but that’s life. I would hate to think the amount of time a person spends in their life time doing this, and for what, your kids come home from school and then wreck it all again so to me its just a vicious circle. Don’t get me wrong I do get on with it but it can be so tedious. I used to have this old Panasonic but to me it wasn’t just quiet up to the job, if you know what I mean, we have a child plus to wonderful furry cats who never seem to stop moulting so on dark carpets it’s a nightmare. I could Hoover at ...  Read the complete review

Two years ago, in February, I began renting this pokey little house outside Belfast, just literally across the road from where I work. To cut a long story short, our landlord would not pay for the carpets to be cleaned, even though they have been in the house from what must be the 1970's. We?d used every vacuum cleaner under the sun to try and make them look any way decent, and nothing worked. That was until we got a Dyson DC04SL Bag less Vacuum Cleaner. I used to think that only posh people had Dyson's, so either I have suddenly become dead posh (unlikely) or they are actually affordable. Our Dyson cost us £129 from Argos. It certainly did the ...  Read the complete review
