    At last a NSD.....
    Froctober didn't go as planned, I spent more than ever.

    My Dyson has lost power, I've tried everything. I have looked at the £199 Shark that was on hd. Does anyone own that one and if so, what do you think please?

    Don't know which one that is, but I have a Shark Lift Off and love it, and it made me realise I did not know how much power my 18 year old Dyson had lost :o Another very useful part of mine is that it has an under appliance tool, I don't use it for that but it is perfect for cleaning behind the drawers for the bird cage :D

    The only disadvantage I can find with it is that it has a smaller dust bin than my old Dyson.

    I think this will go soon as the government could get a massive windfall so I am urging peeps to take it asap.
    Of course , if that is not your plan then don't change but I have already taken one and once matured enough will take the 25% on the other.
    Oooh first I heard of this. Has there been murmurings of this happening :eek:

    I doubt very much that the Govt will introduce this, if and it is a big if, it would be a phased intro.

    I would like to see the source of this ‘info’

    it is a scare story at best.

    Yes it's a lift away but corded.
    I need to see one in the flesh as I don't want anything too heavy to use.

    Dyson wanted £99 to send out an engineer, don't think so. Think it's my 4th Dyson and definitely my last. I asked what the engineer would do that we hadn't and he said strip the ball down, so I'll leave that to OH at the weekend.
