Dysons just suck

The Dyson vacuum cleaner is something of a design legend. The man who created is probably is a genius, and reportedly learns pneumatics in the space of 6 months. There is no bought that they are excellent at sucking hard and continuously, but I’d like to call them out on their over all design. They suck.

• They’re heavy – I find them hard to maneuver and I’m a fit and able bodies man in his 20′s.
• They’re lumpy – over all the whole thing is huge and clumbersom.
• They’re fat – you can’t get the nose of the thing under the sofa.
• The pipe is rigid and wonky – you can’t use it under the sofa either, and with the angled nose on it on the floor and pipe is at 45 degrees.
• Emptying them should be easy as pie, and the bucket is great, but the release mechanism is crap. I always spill.
• You can see your own dirty. Interesting, but slightly yak.
• They are expensive. Period. Industrial vac such as hotels use are the same price and last for forever.
• You can’t take them to bits – so removing the string and bits stuck round the rollers is vitually impossible.
