Suniil, you do know that Kays cancelled all the the Dyson DC07 orders??

Yeah, bit of a downer that was!

Thanks Mazio. Spent part of today cleaning my kitchen floor so I could have done with this! Ordered one.

Is this better than the Flash Powermop?

Have ordered one anyway :eek:

They are also available instore, despite what they say online. The price is the same as the web price with postage.

"Mine" turned up today, will have to get the other half to give it a spin some time ;-).

Cheers to the original OP.

Anyone actually used one yet to report performance?

I've had a look at one and was unimpressed with the thin strip of foam and an even thinner strip of red brushes on the on the bottom - I reckon both will wear out pretty quickly.

I'm not sure how important this is to the cleaning process though.

Not sure how long it will last but cleaned my floors very well and dried them too (Laminate, Vynl, Tiled) When you first use it it does seem to be a bit flimsy but it does do a very good job in my opinion (although we have never used anything other then a mop in our house so cannot compare to other makes). Web price now gone up to £29.99 + P&P.

Yeah, it just disappeared from "my orders". Yesterday I got a call from Kays for alternatives. I said no, thanks!!

Mine got delivered this morning & I tried it out on the kitchen floor.

It washes and dries fairly well, although you have to work at it a bit to get it completely dry without streaks.

What I've found though is that after a while, dirty foamy suds start to come out of the bodywork seams either side above the jug - which then dribble down the bodywork and leave spots of dirty water on your otherwise clean floor!

Is this a fault? Did I put too much cleaning fluid in? (I put a capful of the supplied VAX cleaner in then filled it with cold water to the line marked max level).

By the way, it's not *that* light. Beware if you have a bad back.

I received mine also today. Mine seems to be a refurb The main handle and shaft look used with a couple of marks too. Also the cable came bundled in a plastic bag but not tied neatly. The rest looks brand new so I think it's a refurbished model. Maybe that's why they were so cheap. No mention of that in the item description that I can recall. It's gone now so can't check. Anyone else's look a little used in parts?

Haven't tried it yet.
