Dyson DC07 Upright Vacuum

(Dartmouth, Nova Scotia)
I PURCHASED THE DYSON DC07 YELLOW UPRIGHT VACUUM FOR FLOORS. IT WAS A NEW ONE IN A BOX THAT WAS NOT EVEN OPENED.
THE FELLOW WHO SOLD IT TO ME WAS GIVEN IT FOR A CHRISTMAS GIFT AND HE KNEW HE WOULD NOT USE IT SO THE BOX WAS UNOPENED. I HAD A HECK OF A TIME TRYING TO SET UP THE MACHINE BUT I DO HAVE TO ADMIT THE SERVICE PEOPLE ARE GREAT.
THEN I FOUND THE MACHINE CUMBERSOME, HEAVY AND VERY AWKWARD TO USE ANY OF THE ATTACHMENTS. TO EVEN GET TO USE ANY ATTACHMENTS YOU HAVE TO FIGHT WITH THE HOSE TO GET IT OUT TO MAKE ANY CONNECTION TO ANY PARTS.
THE SUCTION IS GREAT AND IT IS ALSO GREAT ON MY SEARS VACUUM THAT I JUST PURCHASED BECAUSE I CANNOT MOVE THE DARN DYSON AROUND. IF YOU WANT TO GO TO ANY ELEVATION FROM THE FLOOR YOU ARE VACUUMING YOU HAVE TO TRY AND LIFT THE DARN THING UP TO THE ELEVATED FLOOR.
I TALKED TO THE MANAGER AND SHE TOLD ME FIRST OF ALL THE WARRANTY WAS NON TRANSFERABLE BUT AS FAR AS HELP THEY WOULD GIVE ME ALL KINDS. HELP IS NOT WHAT I NEED. I NEED A VACUUM THAT IS EASY TO USE AND DO NOT WANT TO FIGHT WITH IT CONSTANTLY.
IT IS NOW PARKED BEHIND THE DOOR BECAUSE UNLESS I AM GOING IN A STRAIGHT ROW ANYBODY WILL HAVE PROBLEMS. FOLK’S DO NOT BUY AN UPRIGHT FROM DYSON.
THE ONLY MACHINES THAT I TESTED THAT WERE GOOD (AFTER THE FACT) WERE THE HAND HELD ONE AND THE CANISTER ONE. BOTH ARE GOOD BUT AS FAR AS THE SUCTION I FOUND OUT MY KENMORE SUPREME HAS AS MUCH SUCTION AS THE DYSON DC07 VACUUM THAT IS PARKED BEHIND MY DOOR AND WAS A HECK OF A LOT CHEAPER AND EASIER TO USE.
I PAID 450.00 FOR THIS MACHINE THAT IS NOW IDLE AND HATE TO SELL IT BECAUSE I AM ONLY PASSING MY BADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD MACHINE ON TO SOMEBODY ELSE THAT DID NOT DO RESEARCH BEFORE HAND AS I DID. THE DYSON DC07 IS VERY MUCH OVERRATED.
