Behind the scenes with Dyson on the ball vacuum (DC15)

[FantomLightning]

"Use it completely differently" And yet it still won't fit under any furniture...

[HotpointForever]

I genuinely think this was a brilliant idea! It wasa pain with my normal upright but now my DC24 is fab, with its ball. Also, very small and light for easy storage! Thanks for uploading :)

[andresviolet111]

hey! you have an awesome video! Keep it going

[motocrossgurl18]

i have th DC24 its worth the money it cleans my house really good and i love it!!

[MrSleek87]

heres what you do. take a sledge hammer thats like 50 pounds. and smash this plastic piece of shitt. dysons suck asss. go get a kirby. dysons look fancy but clog alot. and after awhile on the dc25 or the swivel action, after awhile it will hurt your wrist. i know customrs always complain abiut this. so smash it and be done with it.

[bwillwall]

I am a huge dyson fan however I have to say this, I vacuum at my work at a dentist office and for a vacuum that is specifically designed to be easy to push around it is really hard on your wrist and I dont really think its that much easier to maneuver with its weight.

[vacuumvideos]

@bwillwall The DC15 is the first of this type of cleaner and yes, it is a bit heavy to push around. Later models, like the DC23 and DC24 are somewhat lighter. Dyson has patents filed for a new 'ball' model that will likely be out in the near future. In this, the air ducting is shown to run inside 'the ball' which will perhaps make this cleaner lighter still.

[bwillwall]

@vacuumvideos It is one of the later ones and the air ducting is in the ball. Same story.

[vacuumvideos]

@bwillwall In the design shown for the new 'ball' vacuums, *all* the ducting runs through the ball - you don't have the existing inlet and outlet on each with or the support harness. Literally a single sphere, made up of two halves. Hopefully this'll make it somewhat lighter and easier to push around.

[RareVideoGuy]

@vacuumvideos You mean DC24 and DC25

[floresm2222]

the shark is better

[seanandlizzie]

i recently got a ball cleaner, it looked very very impressive, i ended up in casulty, it was not what i thought it was!

[bhm1712]

you cant argue with a £1.1 billion fortune from selling these 'pieces of crap'! I have had a dyson ball for 2 years, and it has never broken and is not noisy. You tend to find that the instructions are ignored with dysons and the filters never get cleaned for months on end which leads to loud and underperforming vacuums.

[henryhooverking]

i love u for desighning this thanks so much mu mum has back, hip and joint problems she has the dc24 red she loves it also she loves the fact that all you have to do is wash the filter she loves u once again thanks

[thepigglettboys]

upright vacuums have had swivel joints for years  this is nothing new , my speedy from 1984 has a swivel joint so does my vorwerk,also the numatic uprights had swivel joints they work so much better than a ball, that ball is crap

[BTMegadeth]

that looks really cool.

[GES6872]

Did you come up with the ball?

[Loranzo1990]

kirbys are shit a 2 salemens came to my mother and fathers house and pitched it to them i thought it wasnt good when it came down to the paper work one took my father off to talk to him about it while the other with the paper stayed with my mom and tried to get her to buy it he even faked cried and said that he need her to buy it so he could feed his children that month and had pictures of them but the photos where fake it was clear when he had forgot to cut off the name of a picture frame comp

[professorPOWERturde]

booooooooooooooooooooooooooo bullshit

[TheChalkychalk]

Carpets are just storage for dirt and grime, I have wooden floors and a brush and shovel, They can out perform Dyson anyday and dont use electricity.

[mrhenderson]

@TheChalkychalk yeah but wood costs a lot and can warp on you. Nothing like hearing creaks while you walk around

[chansen89]

can it suck my dick?

[vacuumvideos]

@chansen89 No, it won't replace your mother in that department either.

[ChrisFromCali]

@vacuumvideos ha ha ha Chansen got burned. Great video by the way :)

[smeghead666]

@chansen89 It won't have an attachment small enough for that

[1Stunna2323]

@chansen89

I bet you wished you hadn't written that comment, huh?

[darkvision1]

i can say these things are garbage, then again i find most vacuums to be such. loud, bulky inefficient. so i look at it this way, what are the 2 things most important to get the job done. to me noise and what it picks up are the key things. so yeah a kirby ways a bit but man does it clean. and what are u talking about 1k for a kirby? only if ur retarded. go get one on ebay brand new for 350$.

[kiwiboy2012]

hey guys watch my videos on the latest dyson unboxingss vacumms just bought today

[mv09]

Does it have the proper amount of suction?

[werewolfsteak24]

dysons are shit,  fuck this guy

[werewolfsteak24]

wouldnt u rather just throw out a bag? you are taking your dust container and dumping it into a bag, so whats the difference. it would take you 15 dumps of the dyson to fill a standard vacuum bag. do you really want to play with the dirt after you already sucked it up?? such a stupid idea.

for some reason people who have dysons will give this a thumbs down and a hate comment, because they were stupid enough to spend $600 on a peice of plastic.

I would love to hear how i am wrong,.

[AJollyGoodFelon]

I would not buy a vacuum from a guy who said took over a thousand tries. That's the sure sign of a jackass.

[WorldWalker11]

@AJollyGoodFelon

Edison on the lightbulb: "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."

[AJollyGoodFelon]

Edison didn't fail though, I can almost guarantee you that the 1000 attempts this guy tried were attempts to silence this screaming piece of crap. And after all 1000 he failed. I actually considered repairing this thing until I realized there was nothing wrong with it except for the design. This guy is an idiot when you read between the lines. I walked my dyson to the curb where it belonged. It does not work. And leaves your ears ringing.

[Turbolad995]

NOT convinced. I've owned bagless vacuums in the past, including dysons and I hate them all - the filters block VERY QUICKLY and when you empty the dust container you liberate the dust!! Since April 2009, I've proudly owned a bagged Bosch BSG8PRO1GB which works perfectly, is manoeuvrable and the suction is INCREDIBLY powerful, even as the bag fills!! When you eventually change the bag, the compartment around the dustbag is 100% clean, not a speck of dust. Finally its bags are NOT paper ones.

[darthdmun]

wow...this guy is a fucking genius!!! ..lol..next he will invent the wheel, then invent a ball to kick to play a game with...he may even invent the name football!...oh wait.....

[EbilinforcerDJ]

i have a orange dyson ball and its still finning for a year

[nazirdjon]

omg this page is full of dust collecting freaks arguing whose sucking machines sucks better. lol

[easyBHI]

its all about making life easyer... ur probaly a stay at home mum. and thats ur job to vacuume stuff... i have to hammer stuff all day and it was hard at first but i got better at it.. u should be pro at vacuuming and cooking by now

[Tigonyxcarab]

Have we become so weak that we can't even turn a traditional upright around the furniture? I for one can make a Hoover do anything that the ball can do, but with better suction and no gimmicky parts.

[ballzbroz]

the tri star out performs that piece of shit dyson and yet they dont tell you that the dyson that fucking dyson has a hiddin filter and they are in so many fucking million dollar law suits for their shitty product

[Joshua543215]

And underv the furniture

like beths or some, you dont get this huge thing under!

[Andrewpinon]

The other issue with Dyson is that you need to wash the filters every 6 to 12 months. Ok so you vacuum your house for 6 to 12 month takes the filters out of the vacuum to wash it. The filters will contain mold spores, pollen, animal dander (if you have pets), dust mites and many other contaminates, As you wash this out in your sink, then let it dry completely and put back in a warm dark place called the vacuum. What is going to happen there?

[Andrewpinon]

I own a vacuum store in Grapevine Texas. These Dyson balls are dropping like flies. The previous commit is right; to have warranty work done you have to ship it off. I disagree that Oreck is the way to go. Oreck has the smallest motor of all the upright vacuums; it also has some of the worst filtration on the market. The best vacuum in my opinion is the Miele S7. The Miele S7 has certified H.E.P.A. which means it filters down to .3 microns.

[jasonrothfeld]

but baggless is dirty and the dyson is heavy plus the head is so bulky it cant get under sofas and the 5 year warrenty is ok but what if something goes wrong wear do i take my dyson i have never seen a dsyon store oreck is low profile has 21 year warrenty and 21 tune ups plus 8 pounds and i know four oreck places within 40 minutes of my home so i think

oreck is way better

[vintagehoover]

Great video, very interesting! Thanks for the upload!

[P1nkFLaming0]

i have the dyson ball and it is the best

[sanzo21]

prolly get flamed for this comment but..

its too expensive for me. :S

[TheSunReader]

James Dyson the inventor of nothing! He likes to think of himself as a modern day Hubert Cecil Booth when in reality he is just a devious salesman who tells people that his vacuums have 100% suction 100% of the time...maybe if you clean the filters after every single use. He also loves taking spare part manufacturers to court if they produce better and cheaper replacement spare parts. All in all James Dyson is a very nasty little man and his vacuums are shoddy crap. Buy Miele instead

[fadjoint]

yeah why not

buy and chang filter every 6 month for the reast of your life and with a 1 year garanty for the same price of a dyson

good choice

[TheSunReader]

Miele have two year guarantees and some models have 5 or even 10 year guarantees, but don't let anything trivial like facts detract from your dyson-faggism .You just keep watching your filth spin round in the bin there's a good lad.

[Chris242tt]

@TheSunReader people like to see it 'Do tricks with the dirt'!!!

[iloveGTA123]

numatic are better than any other brand u should buy those instead

[rocknrollohio]

I have a Henry , I wish Numatic made an Upright Vacuum

[tjfreak]

I think it's hilarious..who has a big problem maneuvering a 10 lb vacuum, or less ? I don't blame this guy for being a shrewd(Gimmicky) business man its the name of the game..but the consumers, like with anything else,taking a brand name, personalizing it,and clubbing others over the head with it,incorporating it into their phony superiority.A $150.00 Eureka commercial ,at Sams Club will do the same or better.The suction is the key, remedied decades ago by Kirby & Royal.

[tjfreak]

I know exactly "what I think I'm talking about" tried em all..gimmicky - overpriced - a fortune to repair - but it is colorful and space age and impressive looking

signed....Moron

[iruss71]

IWhen anyone asks me about buying a vacuum cleaner, I always tell them to buy a Dyson. I have one and will never buy anything else. They are simply amazing.

[Brandotuomikoski]

how bout kirby? ever used one?

[irocdreamer]

Are you kidding? A Kirby? Garbage, old and heavy, and they way they sell them door to door is a complete joke. Their high pressure sales tactics, not leaving when told, crying because you didn't buy one, etc, should get them sued by state AG's.

[Q80Y]

yep, very TRUE

[MADDOG6400]

@irocdreamer I agree. Why don't they just sell Kirby's in stores? They are AMAZING vacuums, but the way they sell them is a JOKE!

[MrSleek87]

@MADDOG6400 go to a vac repair shop or authorized kirby service center and get a rebuilt one at less than 1/2 the cost.

[iloveGTA123]

kirby cost a grand for those bloody hoovers

[suncork51]

must be from england. is hoover the common term for vacuum?

[vacuumvideos]

Yeah - in the UK and Ireland the word Hoover is a generic term for vacuum cleaner.

[tjfreak]

In the US, Hoover can be an abortion,or someone who snorts un godly amounts of blow,

[invisableman]

i don't know what part of the US you're in but in all my travels i have never heard that term used in that way.

[34kiwi]

That's amazing.

In other words the second stage of a Dyson cyclone can pull out dust particles as fine as a filter on the Miele.

Presumably one is entitled to a full refund if it can't?

[vacuumvideos]

Some of the recent Dysons (such as the DC17 upright) have 3-stage separation AKA Level3 root cyclone, which is said (by Dyson) to be the world's most efficient cyclone technology. I'd say either would be very competitive compared to any vacuum that replies on bags or filters to trap fine dust.

[34kiwi]

Yeah right - says Dyson. I wonder who else does, like independent consumers tests for instance?

[vacuumvideos]

The Dyson clarification is "Dyson proves no loss of suction, best average pick up, and 'overall outcleans other vacuums' using results from IEC 60312 Cl 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.8, 2.9, ASTM F608 and F558, and DTM 755— an independently conducted Dyson test. "

[badgirl44654]

My sister bought a Kirby, it worked wonderful for about two days and then the suction went to shit. Requires bags that are quite pricey at $20 for 3. The hose attachment is ridiculously difficult to connect. I bought a Bissell Powerforce Bagless at Wal-Mart for about $50 and it cleans better than that crappy overpriced Kirby does.

[34kiwi]

I own a Miele which uses multi-layered bags.

Even after using just four of them the makers suggest changing the filter.

So if a Dyson only needs filter maintenance every 12-24 months where are all the fine particles of dust going?

[vacuumvideos]

If you remove and look at the underneath of Dyson bin, you'll see the second stage cyclone, which separate / collects the fine dust particles (which look a bit like grey talcum powder). This is what the majority of other bagless vacuums lack and why their filters need cleaning more often.

[no1hereagain]

my grammer may be poor, just like a dyson really, lol, no seriously, my dyson dosent seem to pick up my dogs hairs,its 3 years old, A dco4 i think - green/silver, any tips welcome?

[vacuumvideos]

Could be for a number of reason. Best advice is to call the helpline number printed on the side of the machine.

[richardlee1985]

I say, chuck out the dc04 and get a sebo x4, that picks up everything especially dog hairs, is quieter, lighter, built to last, properly cleans hard floors to thick pile carpets and changing the bag is totally hygienic. Oh and cheaper than some of the dysons.

[3792sammy]

Dyson brings a whole new meaning to the term sucker':-

Sucker for having to constantly wash the filters;

Sucker for sucking in the crap while one empties the cannister;

And last, but not least, sucker for paying so much for what a moderately priced bagged machine would do far better.

[vacuumvideos]

It's a subjective and well worn argument. Some people prefer the 'simply throw the bag away' concept of bagged cleaner, others are of the mindset 'I never need buy a bag or filter ever again'. Typically, a Dyson will maintain constant suction for 12-24 months without filter maintenance, but you will get problems at some stage if you never check the filter.

[no1hereagain]

a ball or not there rubbish
