Apart from the Dyson website does anyone know of anywhere else you can buy spares, a new hose for instance.

Thanks

Dave

Is it just ours, or are do all Dysons have crap build quality?

Cheers

I cant complain really that hose has been stretched many many times to get to the top two stairs in the past 5 years so its done well, only had to change filters, no other probs.

I meant to say anywhere else on the high street :)

Maybe it's just ours then Funkii.

Tools fall from their holders and then fall off when in use, the handle's coming apart, the brushes come adrift at the front, the hose hasn't split, just comes away from the holder (stuck together with tank tape at present) etc etc.

LOL at the tools, they were always going to fall off :D:D

Admitedly I've taken it apart twice in five years just to clear out all the crap that builds up in the nooks and crannies (sp?)

See no footy on and you spend your Saturday mornings talking about hoovers , get out and mow that lawn ;)

Theres a shop in Wokingham, Berks that sells all the parts.

Dave

"you spend your Saturday mornings talking about hoovers"

Er, you started the thread!

As for the lawn - the gardener does that.

Cheers

It was in jest Toonman :p

Apologies I was so wrong why would you miss footy with a 3rd rate mob like the mags :p

<watches as handbags fly forth>

The Dyson we have has been pretty good, the tools fall off as they all seem to do and the only thing to replace was the filter IIRC. I don't sort the hoovering though. ;)

I watch the footie. :D

"It was in jest Toonman"

Never would've guessed Funkii... :rolleyes:

Cheers! :)

DC01 had flaws,but they have ben better every model imo,DC04 is ace

B&Q Warehouse sell spares in some stores

sorry to take this off topic but guys discussing vacuum cleaners and describing them as ace - brilliant!!!!!
I think that Powerhouse and Comet sell spares for them too btw

PS - I don't do the hoovering either - I get someone else to do it :D

i sit and admire the engineering and design...................while the missus uses it :)

you didn't think any of use them do you? ;)

Just tried search for "dyson+hose" on
www.priceguideuk.com
came back with
£16.95 (900618-01 - HOSE / FOR DYSON DC02) and
£20.95 (900656-04 - HOSE / FOR DYSON DC01)
both from
http://www.electricshop.com

ps. thats inc delivery

Also worth a try calling Dyson (number plastered all over vac), my mates was 4 yrs old and no ext gtee when it went pop. Dyson engineer came to his house and did a full service, replacing 7 major parts (should have cost over £140) and was charge max call out fee of £40. Bargain!

under warranty Dyson will collect from your house and re-deliver

foc!!

Thanks for the help guys :)
