Dyson DC11 Telescope Review

Too little space for them all, read on...

I bought this dyson having had a number of inefficient cleaners and i'm afraid i believed the hype. I think i was happy the first time i used it, then it went seriously down hill. The claim that there will never be any loss of suction? Well i guess it's right - there was never any real suction to lose. It won't pick up a crumb - having spent an eternity going over the same area, the cleaner gave in first - manged to pick up a peanut, only to spit it out when the power was turned off. My husband has had an electric shock off the metal telescopic hose, and i have lost count of the number of times i have nearly lost my thumb-nail when trying to empty the vacuum - a bad design fault. I have cleaned the filter more times than i care to remember, emptied the vacuum before it is half full but there has never been any suction. It is useless, overpriced and i wish i had never bought it. I have just replaced it with a henry hvr 200-22, and am delighted with my new purchase.
