This is honestly just a bit of a rant as my Dyson V10 has broken again…. This is what has broken in the last year:
- trigger guard snapped
- battery died
- head pivot broken
- empty-mechanism snapped
- filter showing clogged after cleaning, needed a new filter.
Every replacement is exorbitantly expensive, and requires as complicated replacement procedure as possible. A battery that consists of seven 18650 cells which should cost ~£20 to replace is £90! You can’t replace the cells as the unit is plastic welded together.
You know what isn’t broken and has never broken; my 40 year old Sebo which is now been promoted from ‘upstairs vacuum’ to ‘primary vacuum’
It was bleeding edge, because they break or just don’t work as advertised.
Heh I think they used to be better quality before. Most houses with a Dyson Ball I’ve been to still has it working, nobody mentions repairs. I still wouldn’t buy one though.
