Let me know, when you make it cheaper, or on easy payment's, I'm on a
fixed income, I live in a senier housing developement, and the tenents
have to clean there own stairways two flyts up!
I own the small dyson for my apartment, I love it, picks up everything.
Thank You

That is good in theory, but the cord does not allow it to be charges and be used at the same time. I think this is a big oversight for the unit. They really should make it allowed to work while plugged in, or have some car adapter. Shame on James Dyson!

For those who want a car adapter just purchase one of those power converters that let you plug in household items, only $30 at your local walmart, if you have the money to purchase one of these you can definitely afford that, and a longer cord for doing your entire house was solved like 200 years ago with the invention of extension cords. All problems solved.

i can't wait for dyson to come up with something comparable to the hoover floormate…which isn't available in canada for me anyhow; i got a dyson for my carpets for xmas; WOOOHOOO: and it's REALLY not like me to be excited about housework… probably because I've never had any FUN AND EFFECTIVE equipment so far… i try using the vaccum in my kitchen but it's not good for wet items; such as macaroni from the kids' lunches etc.. haha; too bad-sweeping isn't for me; nor is getting down on my hands and knees

Great article. Dyson DC31 is one powerful hand held vacuum! The linear battery technology works great as it doesn't lose power even when the battery is running low. The negative, battery life is short and charging time is long.

To me any vacuum job bigger than 10 minutes work, really shouldn't be using a handheld vacuum.

You made a good point. They should have a 12v cigarette adapter. It would appeal to those who want to do their car.

Noise = Power. I used to care about the noise on appliances but realized that the less noise means less power. The Blend-Tec I bought is loud as hell but blends everything. I don't think noise should be a negative unless it doesn't have the power to match or it's blowing out your ear drums.

I think the car adapter would be awesome. I'm always stopping at the gas station to use their air vacs. I wonder if the charger is some kind of universal one that can be bought at a hardware or electronics store.

How much does this thing go for? If I had a dog I'd easily pay $200 for a vac that actually picks up the hair without getting clogged up.
