Dyson DC08 Reviews

I had a bad experience with the dyson dc08 from the start which is very disappointing especially given its high price. Once I started the cleaner it would lose suction within seconds and refuse to work even after cleaning out the filter as recommended by the customer service at dyson. Unfortunately the dyson had a faulty part ...  Read the complete review

I received this vacuum as a gift, second hand from a friend and was initially very excited (I know, sorry). Initially I was quite impressed with this vacuum, it had strong suction and didn't break my back when I was using it. Unfortunately, a couple of weeks later the relationship has dwindled! I seem to have to clean the internal filter most ...  Read the complete review

Dyson DC08. Ummmmm well it is Dyson one of the strongest brands out there for powerful hoovers. And it is also quite small and compact but is it really what it is sed to be? I have this hoover and what I can say is that being that it is the first dyson hoover ever bought into the household it isn't in my opinion all that it is cracked ...  Read the complete review

Normally I am not a fan of dyson at all. My experiences with the uprights have been awful. The belts are impossible to change, the suction is not very good and they are extremely expensive for what you get. A friend of the family bought this Dyson but found it difficult to use and wanted to change to an upright and asked if we wanted ...  Read the complete review

I owned a Cylinderical Dyson a few years ago. It made a poor job of carpets, the filters choked up frequently and the plastic breaks. Spares are expensive so I binned it and bought a Panasonic for a small fraction of the price. It works better, has lasted far longer and has never broken. My son acquired an upright Dyson more recently. I ...  Read the complete review

I bought one of these two years ago and it has been solely used on one floor of my house. At the same time I bought a Vax tub for downstairs and a small Daewoo (£10.00 in the sale) for the top floor. I must say that the Dyson is a sturdily built machine and will take all the knocks. However, try to balance it on the stairs and then ...  Read the complete review

Easy to use vacuum, picks up everything and makes you realise just how much dead skin was on your floor before. I was amazed by the difference it made to the carpets. It is a light vac and easy to manoeurve around and packs away neatly to be stored. The only disadvantages I have found are: it doesn't sit on steps now I've carpeted and the tools ...  Read the complete review

I was looking for a new vacuum cleaner after 9 years of using my old and trusted Hoover. I had an old 'cylinder' style one, and have never used an 'upright' one before, as they seem to take up too much room. My Hoover hose snapped at the end, and ther was no way of fixing it, even though it was still working well, I decided I ...  Read the complete review

i bought the dc08 because my dc01[aged8] had stopped working suddenly. i was worried about getting another dyson as i have very bad arthritis in my hands, and the dyson tends to be very very heavy. i was researching various models, and decided to try out the one with the turbobrush as i had heard they are not as heavy to use as a ...  Read the complete review

I've had two cats and a crap hoover for far too long. Well, nine months. Nine months of hoovering a carpet with just the sucky tube of the hoover on my hands and knees, and still the cat hair clung fast. I decided it was time to make a change: and so I went straight to the fridge, where we write our major purchases in magnetic fridge letters: ...  Read the complete review

Some time ago I bought a new cleaner, a quite expensive one, from one of the leading manufatures. The mashine has now had its 2-years-birthday, and already it have been retired. Not because of any faulty parts - oh no, the cleaner works as well as ever. But, resently I have had great trouble buying new (expensive !!!) bags for it. Some way or ...  Read the complete review
