​£249 no free toolkit for v6 animal

I have cleaned my whole appartement - around 1000sqft - with one charge. Hard floors only.

Good point was so close to purchasing the absolute from France but went with this deal with Dyson direct for £302 with the free weekend delivery, 2 week evaluation, motorised mini turbine head and free toolkit

i ordered the animal last week when the price was 230 but got sent the v6 and they won't honour the price. If you ordered the animal I would check the machine you actually got sent as I was to the animal was never 230.

Offer still valid today, £339.97 for V6 Absolute with free tools. Thank you lisaAylesbury!

Prices now:
Absolute - £340
TC - £409
Fluffy - £340
Animal - £249
V6 - £230

I just phoned and the prices for the total clean is now £400 and the V6 animal is £249. The absolute is still £340 though.

Yup, called yesterday and deal is still on.

That is not the kit we got.We received this one.

It was still live on Sunday, ordered the Total Clean Sunday morning and it arrived on Monday, still waiting on tool kit but received confirmation that it is on it's way. They didn't ask me for a serial number I just said I was looking to get a Total Clean and they just said they had a special offer just now at a reduced price with free toolkit. Was quick and easy and the Dyson is good too!

Is this expired now?

just ordered animal, they did check for my current dyson which was on file from a repair (many years ago) - don't plan on cleaning for >10 mins at a time so this should do us ok
thanks OP!

Got the total clean coming. Already have a dyson so had my on file.

Just treated myself to the Absolute now thanks! Has anyone told you you're a bad influence?!!!

Converting a EU plug to a UK plug: £2 adapter
UK warranty: already provided by Dyson (and EU law anyway)

Dyson's own wording on its own user manuals:

"Where this appliance is sold within the EU, this guarantee will only be valid (i) if
the appliance is used in the country in which it was sold or (ii), if the appliance is
used in Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Spain or
the United Kingdom and the same model as this appliance is sold at the same
voltage rating in the relevant country"

(Voltage is the same in the UK and France)

Phoned up yesterday and got asked for serial number from friends or family who own existing Dyson product, today didn't get asked for anything and placed order. Depends on who picks up your call!

Ordered the standard V6, very happy with the deal.

But what about a molded UK plug and UK valid warranty

To buy, or not to buy? Very tempted, but put off by 20 min battery life

Same here, total clean for £280. Cant quite believe ive just spend £280 on a vacuum cleaner but thanks op, good deal!

Woohoo - just got the total clean for £280. Called up and said that my mum had purchased a dyson and got a free toolkit, the Dyson guy just explained the offer and set me up as a new customer - it's coming tomorrow :smiley: Thanks OP

Also forgot to mention, when you buy direct from Dyson you get a 15 day period to return the item if it in anyway doesn't meet your satisfaction. Pretty good if you ask me - Adam

Yep sure does.


The highlights stated in the comment pretty much explain enough i thought - Adam

Post 34 mentions watching something but there is no link to anything??

does the total clean contain the same head as the fluffy?

Just ordered the V6 Total Clean + Free toolkit, gave them my 12year old refurb Dyson serial number to get the extra £20 previous owner discount to bring it to the £280 as the OP described. Cannot confirm whether or not I would have got this price had I not had the serial. Thanks to OP and everyones comments, HEAT! - Adam

Just keep an eye on Amazon Germany or France. They normally sell for 250-260 but sometimes comes down to 200.

It comes with the motorised brush head and other bits, but you also get this I think

See post #34 for comparison - Adam

Is this deal still available? - Adam

is there much of a differnece between the v6 and the animal? does the v6 come with the kit too?

no guarantee on it if you bought it abroad

paid £200 for an absolute without toolkit from amazon france and perfectly happy not having the toolkit.

If anyone is interested this is the kit that comes for free.

I got the same deal on black Friday and must say best vacuum I've owed (got the total clean). Recently bought get the handheld tools from sonic direct, which make it very easy to clean your car

Fantastic deal, just ordered the V6 for £200 + the free tool kit. Thanks again OP, as I was just about to order the V6 animal from Currys (£249), but then decided to check hotukdeals to see if cheaper. I saw this deal and the price tag of £229 + free tools, and the even cheaper V6 for £200 + tools if you don't really need the extras the other models have.
There was no "haggling" over the phone for the deal either. I asked the prices and the saleslady confirmed the prices exactly as the OP had posted. I asked if they came with the free tool kit which she also confirmed. She asked me if I had registered with Dyson before to which I replied "no". I then confirmed which model I wanted to order and she then registered me.
All straightforward and hassle free. Once again "thank-you OP"!

Can anyone say if the Total Clean is worth the extra £80 over the vanilla V6??

I ordered this morning and wasn't asked if I am a dyson customer, so they're not being consistent

i love this vacuum, just wish you could get spare battery packs

ordered.

thanks for posting this.

love this website!

When I ordered mine they just asked if I was a previous/existing customer to which I said yes (I have owned a Dyson before) They never asked for any serial numbers but did seem to already have my details on record (possibly from registering previous Dyson warranty)

The tool kit contains soft dusting brush, mattress tool, up top brush and a bag to store them all in. I know this as I got the free tool kit with mine last week.

They insisted I need to own a dyson before or they can only give me 299 price with tool set.

Absolute ordered and delivery is Monday. Thanks for posting.

Just ordered Total Clean (with the free tool-kit) and will be delivered free beginning of next week, thanks OP. Really helpful lady I spoke to needed to look up post and explained offer apparently only open to registered Dyson owners (which I am), so really does depend who you speak to.

Figured it out. Just ordered the total clean and voted hot. Thanks! My first Dyson and the salesman was very pleasant! :laughing:

Do I ring 0298 or 0198?

Just ordered one with the free tool kit. They just asked which web site and I said hukd. He went to speak to his college and then came back and said they can do that for me. Good spot

Seems it may be pot luck who you get on the line.... I just ordered the v6 animal, no request for a serial number or to be an existing customer.

Thanks.
2 ordered.

Strange though,
1st one ordered fine.
2nd time I rang for my mum, they said it was for existing customers only, but agreed to sale as I had purchased one this morning.

Thank you for posting this deal. I have just placed my order.

Just ordered the Total Clean, delivery Tuesday. This seems to be the Fluffy plus a better secondary direct drive carpet head.

Arhhh you ring!!?!

So how do you get the free tool kit please? Am I missing something?

Trying to order the absolute. Waiting time terrible. Been holding 16min

got one thanks op

Link shows £249 and no link to free tools. Change the title to phone only deal please. Otherwise great bargain if you can score it.

What's the difference between the standard v6 and the v6 Animal? On the website, they seem to both say they have a motorised head? Just wondering if its worth the extra £30 ?

Edit: OK looks like it may have a wider standard head and an additional mini motorised head for pet hair etc?

No. I have never owned a Dyson before and was not asked.

So re the above comments about giving a serial number, do you need to own a dyson to get this?

Just ordered V6 animal. Thanks.

Erm... anyone tried this one?

Best thing I've ever bought

Thanks for posting, we have a Total Clean arriving on Minday!

Just to add cos its not too clear. The most powerful motorised head comes with the Absolute and the 2nd is the Total clean at 25% less power.But the total clean also comes with the best hard floor cleaning head ( the one that comes with the V6 Fluffy). So depends on what floors you have. Having a mix of hard floor and carpet the Total clean was the best compromise for me and I love it. I also suspect that the more powerful motorised head of the Absolute will use up the charge quicker so thats also a factor.

For people asking about the differences in models, the guy on the phone explained all the different models before I ordered. Also I just said I'm looking to buy the v6 animal and they quoted that price - didn't say I'd seen it posted or anything.

Do these things lose charge when stored? Don't want to have to wait for it to charge up before using and also don't want it plugged into a charger 24/7. Thanks

Am I right in thinking these all have the same v6 motor its just what attachments they come with changes the price ?

sorry, I clearly failed to read the dets properly!

cheers


I'll be buying one tomo!

at the top is says the total clean is 280. but the website says 299?

The same toolkit worth £65 is for sale at Currys for £30

http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/home-appliances/floorcare/vacuum-accessories/dyson-cordless-tool-kit-19394348-pdt.html

I said I saw it on a blog which is not technically correct but I thought it was easier to explain.

Does anyone know what is in that "tool kit"?

How did you refer to this deal? Just say you seen it on HUKD?

I bought the Total via Currys black Friday. I have a really bad back and arthritis in most joints. This vacuum has been an absolute God send. It is so portable and allows me to do the whole house (small 2 bedroom with open plan stairs & lounge) on one charge. I can even do the stairs on my worst days now. The pick up is superb... Better than my upright Dyson. Yes it does need emptied often but for full strength suction it's worth it.

Lx

I think it is this. ..

Anyone know what accessories it comes with?

Thank you, I've been looking for one of these for a while... Just ordered the animal.

Brilliant find.... just ordered the absolute on the phone for £339.97, free tool kit and free delivery. Been looking for a deal on these for a while. Thank you!

I've just ordered this so thank you! I did have to give the serial number of my registered Dyson to get the deal price though. When I asked for the price first of all they just gave me the standard website price and didn't mention the discount.

This deserves to be a lot hotter. Thanks OP.

Fab deal , been waiting for a good deal on these. Just got the absolute. With a free tool kit.

Just ordered, many thanks

NIce find, just ordered on phone as per your deal

But no free tool kit worth £65???

can anyone order from here or is it just people that already own a dyson?

Anyone - I don't own a Dyson and ordered the animal plus free tool kit on Monday - it arrived Wednesday.

Absolute still cheaper from Amazon France despite it being €356 (has been under 300)

And free delivery

Mmmmmmmm - think it's called 3rd time lucky.........

You sure? :stuck_out_tongue: x

0800 298 0298 - must find glasses.......

0800 298 0198 - sorry!!
