A Review On Dyson Dc31 Motorhead

[EmptyDivided 0]

Hi Everyone,

When shopping for electrical products for our new home with my wife, we were confused by the million of choices and brands, their functions, uses. We finally ploughed through most our purchases by posting questions on forums like renotalk or researching through other foreign forums. Some difficulties that hindered our research were like the different model numbers,the climatic conditions, the service back ups and the availabilities.

We have a cat and a dog that lives with us in our bedroom. My wife has a very bad reaction to pet's dander. It has worsened and I decided to use the new dyson DC31 motorhead before we were ready to shift in our new home. Before I go on to give a full review on this magnificent product, let me share on how we derived on this purchase.

I have a Dyson vacuum cleaner in Australia for the past many years, and till date currently it still works very well without having a loss in suction power. I do regularly maintain my machinery. Our tools are only as good as how much maintenance we spend on them. I clear the dirt mostly after every use and I wash the canister at canister and filter at least once a month. I have not added or changed any part of the machine. This has proven to me it is a worthy machine.

My wife also loved the dyson as it was easy to use and the motorbrush worked well on the carpets, especially when we have pets and seasonally they do moult.

I was visiting my friend's new place in Australia and he liked my Dyson and he bought the same vacuum cleaner plus he bought the DC31. He has a domestic long hair and he uses that to clean his couch as well. He simply swears Dyson is one of the best value vacuum cleaners around.

This has been one of my ideal wants for my new house. And my wife, being my soulmate understands my desires and satisfaction needs, She said I will never be satisfied unless I got the Dyson. She told to get one, but I was hesitant as it was quite expensive. It cost more than some branded fullsize vacuums.

My wife and I having decided we prioritized our privacy as a utmost need, we decided we do not need a foreign domestic helper. Our new place is small and we both share the same traits. We are both clean and we do not procrastinate. I am actually overly obsessive which always get on her nerves.

With that in mind, I decided to get the best equipment we can afford to make cleaning chores easier, and with that extra suction power which I sought after much due to my wife's allergies, I decided to get it.

Last night, after seeing my wife's very red nose and swollen eyes from the allergy from our loved pets, I decided to open our new dc31 before we shifted to our new place. After charging for 6 hours, I decided to vacuum our pillows. And I was in for a shock, a couple of strokes I could see fine fur and powder in the see through canister. This immediately motivated me to do a vacuum of all the pillows and the comforter and the top section of the bed. The canister was filled with fur and dirt. I did not even have to use the extra boost button and it was that powerful.

Of course some people will say then don't let your pets on the bed and your wife won't suffer. My wife, especially will not mind suffering for the sake of her animals. The **** amazon has bitten her many a times drawing litres of blood profusely. I have bitten twice and I dare not go near her anymore. My wife still carries her regardless. So not letting the pets on the bed is not an option. Vacuuming the bed is not a total solution but least we do see the improvement in her allergic reactions.

Back to the machine, the filter is easily removable by pressing a red button to open the canister and remove the filter to wash. The filter must only be handwashed and and air dried. The downside of this filter is that it is a non HEPA compliant filter.

The canister is easy to clean, though some dirt might"fly" out when dumping the dirt in a bag.

Ergonomically, it is not as friendly as the "shark" or the Black and Decker, but it is quite manageable. The motorhead is worth the investment especially if you do have a pet. It works very, very well.

Don't be fooled by the 1400 or 1500 watt rating. The cyclonic action is a proven method.

My other downside I feel on this machine is the short battery life. They rate 10 minutes in lower power and 6 minutes in high power. And the replacement battery is $100 plus dollars!!!

So if you are look a a very good handheld to vacuum your couch, crumbs on the floor or some sand on the ground and are obsessive like me, it is worthy an investment.
