Dyson DC03 Absolute

I find the Dyson DC03 Absolute very heavy to lug around and carry upstairs, attachments seem to fall off hose when using them, top heavy so it can fall over when you use the hose, doesn't seem to pick up dirt - even day to day dirt on top of carpet- very well.

I will never by Dyson again - In my opinion they are overrated and overpriced. This hoover has never been great due to the points above, but at only 2 years old I feel it has completely had it.

The Dyson DC03 Absolute drove me crazy. Afterthis I went to Sears and got the house brand (made by panasonic) based on a CR article. Works great.Dyson for sale lightly used new condition 50$

Will buy the same again if the Dyson DC03 Absolute is still available. Best overall Hoover we have had. Strong suction, easy emptying, good accessories, lightweight, still going strong 5 years on.

UK manufactured Dysons were clearly of a high build quality standard - our first DC03 lasted 7 years - we are on our third replacement in nearly as many months - I am not convinced that overseas build quality standards are so high. Dysons excellent reputation has been damaged by their accountants trying to produce a cheap product rather than a good product. Strategically the move overseas will generate short term higher profits but longer term brand damage through quality erosion.

Dyson is a cheap plastic toy. I suggest looking into a Panasonic or Sanitaire vacuum cleaner.

DO NOT BUY this Dyson DC03 Absolute! Ours works for 3.5 - 5 minutes before taking a 15 minute overheating cutout break.....EVERY TIME. We've washed and replaced filters etc etc, and its still rubbish. We also have a smaller Dyson, and BOTH have gone in the bin this weekend, and we're off to buy a vacuum that works. DYSONs are lousy, don't buy them!

The Dyson DC03 Absolute.....Cheap...plastic....and it doesn't do it's job as well as the £49 vacuum that we already had. A COMPLETE ripoff. Dyson obviously think we're so stupid that we'll buy anything......believing that Dyson=quality. I will never again give Dyson ONE PENNY of my money. Their products, this one in particular, are VASTLY inferior.
