Dyson DC05

I've had my Dyson DC05 vacuum cleaner (which I had wanted forever and a day) for about 4 years and it totally gave up on me yesterday.
The suction was fantastic for the first few weeks. I cleaned out all the filters as instructed, and the suction just lessened each time.
We got a small cheap vacum cleaner free with our washing machine, and the suction was a hundred times better than the Dyson DC05.
Within the first year, we had to call Dyson and have the hose and handle replaced! In fairness, their customer service was fantastic - couldn't have been more helpful.
We need a new one now, but it most certainly won't be a Dyson. - Sorry to all the lovely people at Dyson.
