I thought the hot/cold thing was to indicate how good a deal was rather than how well it was posted about?

Heat added OP.

Maybe next time they just won't bother.

Voted hot to counter bouncy99 ..

@ Dyson gives a clue

It does state at Dyson and the model is a Dyson V6. Did it in a rush, can't keep everybody happy

And if you can find it cheaper please post

these are too weird to get used to

Maybe next time they just won't bother.

great deal. love this hoover thank you

Way out of my league in terms of price. Seen a much much cheaper wired version made by Beldray for £35 that is tempting me.

Love my Dyson V6. Much better than a wired hoover. I paid more than this!

£199 pretty much everywhere. Even John Lewis with 2 years guarantee (if it means much)

£180 @ Argos ebay using code C10ARGOS

the v8 animal is also interest free at £399.99 add well as the v8 total at £520.

booohooo

if i dont know where the deal is coming from, i vote cold. the op still hasnt specified its from dyson in their description.

@ Dyson gives a clue

Well Dyson made the brush roll for the motor head not available anymore today as a separate part and you now have to purchase the WHOLE motor head if you want to replace it, all the other bits are available for the motor head just not the important bit their customers want to purchase the brush roll.

Wouldn't touch Dyson with a barge pole over hyped marketing priced made in Malaysia poor quality components and overall average performance anything after the DC14 is poor. These models your getting now are ages old tech they are already 2-3 designs ahead but wont give you them as they can make loads of cash out of what they already designed 2-3 years which you will get next year.

This is certainly not worth £200 this costs them about £60 to make.

If you call that capitalism, I'll give you a clap, just like a trump quote that one. Its certainly isn't capitalism

You have no idea how business works I'm afraid. I would get into an in depth discussion - but frankly I'd be wasting my time. Have a good evening comrade.

Wouldn't want to anyway no point, just boils down to honesty in business and where you draw your line of sensible profitability being exposed to the inside of the said company their line is way off, we got your view from the comments you have your opinion, I have mine your right ,I'm right it would be very pointless.

you probably love apple devices aswell, thinking they are excellent value for money, brainwashed by all the bull about them.

It says @Dyson in the title. You do seem to be being a little unpleasant for no real reason imo. Each to their own I guess.

Voted hot to counter bouncy99 ..

hmm this or the fluffy for use on both carpet and hard floors..

Dyson isn't what it use to be, I'd say you are paying for the brand but vacuums in general aren't as powerful anymore due to EUs **** eco requirement. It'd be a good time to see whats on Vaxs sale at the moment

I was sceptical of the whole Dyson brand but I wouldn't be without my V6 now. The size, weight and charge on this are perfect for me to whistle over the floors in a few rooms a day and stay on top of things, without turning hoovering into the kind of chore I was doing far less frequently because of the hassle.

Yep just one minor one - has as much suction power as an asthmatic without an inhaler

​ honesty in business! What a joke. look at apples absurd profits. this proves to me that nobody cares enough about how much the company is extracting out of you in profit.

Good spot OP. thank you for taking the trouble to post this. Heat from me.

I called Dyson at the weekend to get some spares for my DC50 sent out under warranty and they offered me a V6 cordless for £179! I think I will call back and get it!

Already posted (by you?):

http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/0-finance-vacuums-dyson-over-6-12-18-24-months-2648542

Same price everywhere

Some people have way too much time on their hands to argue about brands and why Dyson is!

Got one of these. Love it. Buy this, you won't regret it. Its so much more convenient and easier to use. Especially when you have pets.

some please use the buttons to let you know how much an ***** **** they are.

What rubbish. I have a V6 fluffy and it's fab. Picks up so much more than my old Vax did.

The only 'major pitfall' I could say is that it needs emptying often- probably about 4 times if I do the whole house. But it's worth it. So light and easy to whip round the house in half the time of the old traditional vaccum. Compact and easy to store too. If you have a large house you may not get round it all during the charge time, however I manage fine on one charge with juice left over usually. It's also great just to quickly whip out and vaccum up any small bits rather than having to lug out your traditional vaccum and plug it in etc. Good for the car too.

I like my fluffy but it's only worth paying more for the fluffy model if you have a lot of hard floors. However saying that I paid £179 for mine via the Dyson Ebay outlet, so if it was me I'd wait for a bargain to come up on there. They are refurb units but mine was like new.

I have this and I think it's rubbish. Very disappointing. Just chases bits round the floor. Forever emptying it and cleaning the roller. Wouldn't bother.

I love mine i hoover all the time with this because its so much less fuss than getting a wire out!

Bough Dyson V8 absolute three months ago and still loving it! Very good suction and very easy to use.

14.9% I can't find 0%

I have a V6, thought I would do an impartial mini review to help others.

I love mine and think it's great for cleaning up Labrador hairs, it's super convenient.

Suction is pretty good for the size and you can mount it on the wall so it's in easy reach. It is a breeze to move around and get into difficult places. It's also great for the car.

Main downsides are the tank is a little small so needs emptying regularly, it also gets blocked quite easily. The brush head does clog up if you try to pick up larger pieces of muck, but it's easy to take off the cover and remove any blockage.

I wouldn't recommend using it as a full size hoover replacement but it's great for a quick runaround. You can always pull out your bulky old hoover when doing a big spring clean.

However, if your looking for a cordless you really can't go wrong at this price. It's just so easy to use and a quick hoover up takes 5 minutes (instead of 30!).

Nonsense, on turbo mode I've found it just as powerful as my old full size DC32.

Thats good to know about the Lab hairs. We have recently got a Lab and the wife was looking at a cordless Dyson. Does anyone else have any comments on this with regards to pet hairs?
Thanks
D

Great dogs but even male labs seem to shed their entire coat on a weekly basis! :smiley:

I have the Animal variant so not sure what the difference is, maybe the brush head? But it's an absolute godsend as we need to hoover up at least 3 times a day, it would be a nightmare unwinding and pulling out the hoover so often.

Good luck with the lab! They are hard work but super friendly and total nutters!. :smile:

Sweet - so the asthmatic found the inhaler. With regards to the turbo mode being as powerful as the DC32...:smile: - best joke of the year.

Factually - its about 1/8th the power of a standard vac. and lasts about 20mins. Batteries are degradable by nature, so if you pay £200 today, that means in about 18months, you will have a very expensive even lower powered cordless vac.

There are better cordless vacs out there, we had the v6 fluffy variant, it was returned with 7 days. If you actually want your house clean get something else. Don't get bought into the shiny shiny-ness of Dyson. Just my opinion.

Just to follow up, i know this isn't a definitive way to say how well these things perform check both of these links out:

This is Dyson's original account - this implies that people are essentially paying double for the handheld, then having to send the unit back to be refurbished with is then being resold on eBay. That's is a ratio of 1 cylinder : 48 V6 handhelds being sold.

You can validate all the facts and figures from the listings, i'm just trying to factually support that i have found/think this product is terrible.

It says 0% interest over 24 months on the Dyson website, but 0% for 4 months on the PayPal site. Which is it?

Find the product you are after, view the product and on the right hand side of the screen it shows under the price in blue 0% is available. Just checked and still there

I too have a lab. With the milder weather coming in he has really started to moult badly, I'm surprised he's not bald now with the amount he sheds tbh.

I have a V6 Absolute. If I hoover every day then the normal setting picks up the hair. If it's been a couple of days then I use the turbo setting.

All my family (including the kids) vacuum much more often simply because it's so easy to whip out and use. It gets in alongside beds in the small bedrooms so much easier than my previous 'normal' vacuum did for example.

My ONLY gripe is that for me personally, I don't find the battery lasts long enough. Especially on days where the lab has been over the whole house sharing himself with all and sundry. :smile:

Ideally I would like two but that's not going to happen!

Yep, that's 1 opinion, here's another:
We just moved into a new place that had female students in before. No matter how much we vacuumed the carpets we could not get rid of all the long hairs embedded in them.
Bought a V6 Absolute and even with the few mins charge it had when we unboxed it, it pretty much filled the tank straight away. Yes our old vacuum was a bit ****, but still we were amazed at how much hair and dust etc it pulled up in literally a couple of minutes - we had no idea there was that much hair embedded in the carpet.

So what would you recommend instead of the V6? What did you buy after taking back the V6?

What if the handhelds sold 48x more units than the cylinder? The ratio of refurbs would be the same between the 2 models.
Basically, what you're trying to prove doesn't mean anything unless you know how many were manufactured/sold in the first place.

Got this last November but the v6 animal version from Dyson outlet on eBay. Got it for £157 and the Mrs loves it.

Paypal trying to open a credit account rather than just letting you pay over 6/12/18/24, very cheeky.

£169 at Aldi https://www.aldi.co.uk/dyson-v6-top-dog/p/077587144273300

That isn't the same model.

​Yep same here.. are we doing something wrong or not credit worthy..lol

Like I said, I'm more than impressed with it and it would seem the majority of owners on here are too.

It's a cracking hoover and 100 x better than the cheap and inferior alternatives. Had a Vax one once, it was big, bulky and broke after 3 months! I think I'll stick with a Dyson thanks.

People who think Dyson and Vax are good obviously haven't owned a Shark

We've owned Dyson vacuum cleaners for over 12 years. 1 for 12 years and a V6 for almost 2 years now. Both perfect.

Dyson, Samsung, Apple all bad no value in the products offered to the cost of what you pay. There are a lot of companies that are honest and do offer good value. Lot of people do care how much they spend but there are equally those that have no clue how much then spend these are the people Dyson, Samsung & Apple love and are most of their customers and no I am not being disrespectful to people who do own these products and do enjoy them.

I never owned a Dyson I've used them a lot as I've repaired hundreds, I was at the DC15 launch event and it went flat from there for Dyson no one was impressed.

I have a Vax 6150SX cost me £80 new had it for 10 years still going very strong and it can do a load of stuff a Dyson cant, suck up ceiling adhesive, getting mucky outside dragged through puddles and falling over from being pulled left right and centre every where, falling down stairs, none if it broke at all and does wet/dry/shampooing and has a Wessel Work air flow turbo head and is the bees knees puts a Dyson to shame on performance and build quality.

Dyson lost there way after the 14, and since then charging the money they do for them, if they were £100-80 less they would be much better value product. Great products gone bad, they need a tv show on that :smiley:

Just one question, is it good on hard floors. The kitchen and hall are tiled where pup spends most of the time indoors.
Thanks

yep Dyson is getting a very bad name for itself

abandoning UK factories etc - what did they expect?

pay peanuts, get monkeys

Not cordless or 2 in 1

I'd suggest you get some modicum of an education before you bash the OP's post for being 'aweful'.

​save your £35

​it doesn't need high suction as the powered brushes do the work ... that's the whole point

​guess what ... you buy a new battery

I was very anti dysons but was able to compare v6 to v8 and ask a few friends.

wanted a cordless for car and a convenient vacuum for daily clean ups.

I would say the larger battery life and redesigned bin,Was the what made me get the v8.

but the v6 at this price is good .And Dyson so quick shipping.

Not strictly true without suction the roll will deliver dirt back into the apparel, their has to be enough to clear the brush roll within 2-3 revolutions else the brush pick up losses' its efficiency and is the reason why Dyson needed to design high rovo motor to compensate for this and have high mass roller to again compensate for the lack of suction, small gap faster airflow. Since the 34 its been close to the edge of barely there just enough to make the difference, sorry me to techy there.

Yes, its perfect for hard floors, my entire downstairs is laminate flooring and never have any problems. Though the V6 Fluffy might be better as heard it also buffs the floor at the same time. Going to see if I can get the fluffy head separately.

I was in awe at this deal. Great compliment

Yes no problem on hard floors. My kitchen has vinyl flooring and it's best on the standard setting, the turbo setting is too strong for the vinyl.

Cant decide between a v6 and v8. I know 20 min or 40 min runtime but than you can always hoover once its charged again. I have a two bedroom flat with a 7 month baby. £199 is great for v6 and two years of warranty. Any Help would be great.

My own view is that white goods including other electrical items will be a lot more expensive after Brexit has concluded because of the import tariffs - costs will ultimately be passed on to the consumer.

I have 3 dogs and the Dyson animal is the best hoover I have owned. Great for dog hair as the Animal has a specific brush. Have the cordless one too, wouldnt be without it. Great price.

I have ordered this because I think it's a good deal and have given some heat. 24 Months interest free is great.

I cannot understand the Dyson haters on here. Dyson represents everything that is great about Britain . A single bloke with a good idea developed in the UK and now so successful he now employes 7000 staff and manufactures his products in 70 countries plus all the usual linked supply chain. We should all be getting behind British design and manufacture not bad mouthing it down.. even if the product is not for you or you have a preference for another manufacturer you have to give him his due...... he has done very well....

I have three dogs, one with long hair, and two with short hair. It's great for a quick tidy around, and even my husband agrees it's been a great purchase. Mine are all shedding at the moment, and I don't know how I managed without it. I have the V6 absolute.

Just tried to order with the 24 month interest free deal, Paypal not playing and get the following:-
Whatever that means, bit rubbish.

​mine went through on 24 months. not very clear during the process but as long as you selected that option seems to work. ignore the 4 months bit , as it's just a sales pitch for further credit..

Just to confirm are these ok for picking up pet hair? Our jack Russel is malting like hell at the moment. We also have an Amtico style floor (at half the cost) would this be suitable?

Whats this rubbish? Why advertise credit, get your details, put a search on credit file and then offer something completely different to the offer advertised.

Oh and after I continued I get a fecking "order failed" message.

No business from me Dyson, you bunch of cowboys.

Anyone experience re the buffering?
Also, anyone know if you can replace the head with a fluffy head? You can pick those up for £25-£30; that would make this a winner for me as we've just tiled from the front door through to the kitchen!

Where you putting it?

"The most common approach to the powering of a switched reluctance motor is to use an asymmetric bridge converter .... ummm, marketing here, let's just call it a digital motor ... OK?

I applied went to pay and hit message saying no credit for this purchase

To get round it log on to your paypal and disable the security key, the paypal credit thing should then work, after that's complete log back onto paypal and switch the security key back on. Not all that happy with them giving some credit limit above the cost of the vacuum think it was 3k or something, such practices should be outlawed, but the actual vacuum cleaner is excellent!

Wouldnt touch paypal credit.
