So why did you poo poo my experiences? I dont understand why Im not allowed to share my views but you are.

So you would never find hard facts (aka reviews) to back up anything you say or post :rolleyes:

I certainly didn't "poo poo" [sic] your opinions, unfortunately it's exactly what you do, or come across as doing - I could cite all manner of threads, esp in the Tech forum with similar examples.

Reading and listening, and respecting, other peoples experiences and opinions is what this forum is about.

Perhaps we are all guilty of reading inflection into posts that aren't really there, that's the problem.

In fact my last line was to the effect "you like one, I like another". Earlier I posted about the importance of choice.

There are many independent reviews, if it was something scientific I'd be happy to quote a research paper, but reviews on products are subjective. Anyone can Google and find links to support their cause, be in inaccurate Wiki entries or love and hate sites for a particular brand, company or product. There is nothing sophisticated about that, anyone can use search engines...

I have to say each to there own by Dysons are fine hoovers, just fine, but IMHO Dyson has to be one of the most over-rated products since Apple. I have had a Dyson, a Bosch and a Miele and Im sorry but i dont think the dyson can carry a torch to these hoovers. Miele in particular are an example of a product being worth the money. The build quality is amazing.

I just like to add thanks to all the repies now the bickering has subsided, what ive picked up is there are dyson people and henry people and never the 2 shall meet:p I unfortunatley am not very good with hoovers and ive had too many to count but when it came down to it i quess im a dyson person, i tried another make and just wasnt happy and with this being the first dyson ive purchased with the 5 year warrenty kind of influenced my decision and so far so good its the best dyson ive had so far;)

I've got a dyson DC01 which we bought in 1998 and is still in daily use. We had to have a new cable a couple of years ago when it burnt out where it wiggles about on the hoover. DH wanted to throw it but I got it fixed for £20 getting a longer cable in the process. The guy who fixed it said the DC01 was one of the best models along with the DC04. My dad has a henry which I also like so when the dyson no longer works perhaps in another 10 years, I'll think about a henry.
