@ Richard - they also used to say "No loss of suction" Which is fine until the small holes around the inner cyclone bit get blocked with dust & fluff. Then I find my good old Aquavac comes to the rescue.
My sister managed to completely block her Dyson up. It took me an hour to dismantle and clean it out with a combination of hot water, and airline...
Sorry to disappoint Dave. You know I always prefer to please. :)
The inner cylone in my Dyson blocks too but I just try to clear it with a dry then wet rag. Not really a successful process but I wouldn't undertake taking it apart.
Was quoted £97 for a service so thought I'd just stick to my DIY servicing.
Getting your Dyson serviced is well worth it. We've had ours done twice now (about 2 yrs apart each time) and it's like having a new one. They will replace any parts that are out of spec or damaged, and last time we even had a new motor, all within the service price. I give ours a good clean every now and then, but after a proper service it feels like it is going to rip the carpet up and swallow it.
I like Dysons because (like Land Rovers) they are infinitely repairable, and designed to be so. But a professional eye on it every so often is worth the money.
Richard, on your recommendation I've emailed Dyson about a service. The link on their website doesn't work.
I'm doing this because I know my machine doesn't operate as well as it should even though I do my best to keep it clean. Also I hope to have a new lobby carpet in the spring after I've had a canine visitor stay for a week. :)

Dyson's slogan used to be 'say goodbye to the bag'. Can't improve on that.
Great find, Rosie.
9/10 for creativity & interest.
But considering the most visually-prominent brand-name in the advert was that of its actual competitor, oi'll give it only 1/10 for effectiveness.
Ah well, SR, who really believes what they see in an advert? We have always known there was a vacuum in the advertising world, did we not?
I didn't know that Richard. Ah well maybe they ought to re-run it.
Well spotted Joe. With just a tiny LG logo in the corner, it certainly didn't seem like an LG ad until the end.
More hot air in Westminster though WfW. :)
Damn - not what I was expecting....or hoping for!
