MY Latest UK possesion

[skip]

I love the appliances from the Uk as I have a lot of there vacuum cleaners and have always wanted a dyson to add to my collection. I finally used a Dyson Upright about 6 months ago and Boy I didn't even know how to operate it but after figuring it out I really was impressed. So I said I wanted a Uk Dyson in my collection so I got this Dyson DC02 De stilj model and Am Going to add the DC04 De stilj model so I will have both the Canister and the upright

What kind of washer and dryer is hiding behind???

 

[skip]

This is a above picture of the Dyson

this is the picture of the top of it. I'm really impressed with it as this vacuum was produced in 1996 and was well cared for all the stickers are still well intact on it

The washer is a Maytag performa and the dryer is a Whirlpool gas dryer I bought them 2 years ago from Lowes. I had a Maytag Neptune washer and Dryer bought brand new in 1997 from Conn's and I think the washer was a lemon from the get go as it was always having to get repaired. Thank God I had an extended warrenty on it but when the warrenty ran out I didn't renew it as the washer was probably more in the shop then at home and was tired of fighting with conn's about it. My regret is that when they both finally went out a month apart that I didn't buy the Fisher-paykel washer and dryer as My older sister has the set and they do an awsome job for sure. The maytag and Whirlpool do an awsome job as far as I can tell but i just love that fisher-paykel set better

I have the original Neptunes from 1997. Only had one problem with the washer....Had to replace the board and wax motor.....of course way past the recall. But I still love those machines. Just wish it had a window...yeah..who else sits and watches their washer????????
Just the nuts here at AW.org~!

I really loved that set but I guess there a lemon in some as was in the case of my set as I have a friend who has the identical set bought a couple of months apart and has no problemsd what-so-ever with his at all.

Neptune Dryer

Gary in fact I still have the Neptune dryer in my storage building and it probably needs maybe the therstat or the heating element changed out

Skip, that is an AWESOME UK Dyson. I LOVE the colors, and I bet it has a TON of power being 220V. Congratulations!

Austin

Thanks Austin Yes I was quite suprised at all the power it has.
The seller is sending me a dyson turbo brush for it and so I was curious anbd my Bosch turbo brush fit it and I was amazed at the suction that it has with the turbo and boy does it do a job for sure. By the way Is Your New Dyson going to be in in time for You to bring it to Tuscon I sure hope so.

Hopefully the first batch of DC21 Stowaway canisters will arrive at Tom's store on Tuesday, so I can order one and have it shipped off to Roger's house in Arizona that same day. Since it days 3 days to go from Festus to Tucson, it would get there Friday, when I arrive. That would be AWESOME to show it off 3 months before the official release! Tom did say the Motorhead uses the same rug nozzle and brushroll as the DC17, so it must be one hell of a cleaner. I can't wait!

Well my fingers are crossed that everything works out and it will get to Rogers on time will be something rather unique to show off at the wash in. after You get it let me know what You think of it.

Seamus and Mike

Thanks so much but I really fancy this Dyson for some reason for sure it does outdo any fantom lightening for sure. Yes I was saying earlier I will definately add the de stilj dc04 as i rather that style upright better then the dc01. I love the destilj colors. one thing for sure UK has the most beautiful colored vacuum cleaners I find. Seamus Thanks also for your offer and I will take You up on it when I run out.

Thanks Again Skip...

Good point about dysons...they may be future collectibles...lousy vacs but future collectibles! The ones her in the US are just dreadful. They do have some interesting colors though...too bad color does not clean carpet!LOL!!
