Dysons are the benchmark for marketing over functionality bullshit. Millions fall for the overpriced shit vacuum cleaners, and then buy another one next year each time it breaks.

I hear that Shark are just as bad.
Very few spare parts shared between models and production of spares stops shortly after a new model is released.
I was tempted to get one of those G-Tech battery powered hoovers when our current one eventually dies, since the handheld one I have is decent enough but that fucking advert has put me off G-Tech forever.

dysons are ok
i inherited one from my dad when he carked it, and it sucks, in a good way
not sure about all the hype and i'd never fork out that much retail if I had to buy it myself, it's just a vacuum cleaner. Also seems top heavy and would snap if it ever fell, but so far i've avoided that. but it does a good job on carpets. could do with flexible attachment for the car, though. Didnt think of that one, did you mr design genius?
