How cute! A Dyson rip off!

24 cyclones! Beat that!!

no way kthanks

Bed Bath and Beyond here in Dubuque carries that model. Not even on clearance.....would I consider it..

If it doesn't have a bag I don't want it...

Surely that infringes on Dyson's patents? I thought as they currently stand, they prohibit other manufacturers from producing machines with multiple cyclones? Hence him successfully suing Hoover over the design of their original UK Vortex machines, which had 2...

Those have to be the absolute cheapest, crappiest vacuums EVER. While this silly thing claims to have 24 cyclones, no mention is made that they appear to be test-tube sized and probably a marketing hype at the very most! No thanks...give me a REAL Dyson anyday!

I know they totaly ripped off Dyson.

i tried it I HATE IT!

For a second I didn't see the price, and given the list of parts underneath I was thinking you had to buy it piece by piece A-LA Handy Dandy Vacuum Clenaer!

yeah I know, go drink your coffee now Jeff...

Yeah, $50 gets you the works......

But wouldnt you like this brushroll; and the cord; a hose; maybe a lovely red plastic case to put all of it in.....

:-)

I can't remember which channel I was watching yesterday(Either the Food Network or TLC) but I saw a commercial for the Infinity which shows people beating and smashing their old vacuums because they lose suction. One one of the victims was even an old Hoover PowerMax! Then they slid into the new Infinity that never loses suction...

Who makes this contraption?

I have been seeing the same commercial Jeff often on HGTV. Wonder the same thing, who makes this machine. It does look like it would have on-board attachments but in the ad I have seen you can't tell for sure.

The Infinity is a joke. Mostly because it isn't possible for the machine to work properly.

Our Club Dyson works properly, as we show at EVERY meeting, because the tapered cyclones prevent the fine dust from cloggin the pre-motor filter. In fact, our CLUB Dyson has sucked up more of our test dirt than ANY vacuum cleaner EVER brought to a convention, and STILL has the same superior suction it did the day Mr. Dyson sent it to us.

The cyclones NEED to be tapered. Infinity does NOT taper their cyclones (which would infringe on Dyson patents) so the machine cannot effectively filter fine dust. The TEST DIRT we (VCCC) use at our convention would immediately CLOG out the Infinity.

One of the things we do at Mini Meets during the year, is to try out different sweepers using the club's recipe for "Test Dirt" (the same recipe we use for test dirt at the conventions). Two parts dried Capture, one part talc, one part fine sand.

At the upcoming St. Louis gathering in December (first weekend), any VCCC member who attends will get a HANDS ON look at the new bagless uprights, and will get to test them to their heart's content. We'll ask them to inhale the same 10 ounces of our club's Test Dirt, and see which ones clog, which ones blow dust from the exhaust, and which ones just blow up. Then we'll hang the losers in trees and shot them with shotguns. Then, we'll try to return them to the store. How much fun is that going to be? (all said very tounge in cheek)

Good point of the non tapered Infinity cyclones-I used to work with woodshop dust collector cyclones-and they have to be tapered to work.I don't see how Infinity cyclones can work.However all cyclones need a filter after them to catch the very "fines"The filter that is in the Dyson does this.In shop dust collectors-a baghouse,bag filter-or very large pleated filter catches the fines.One of the tasks I had was emptying the unit-A large trash barrel fits under the main cyclone-and that catches large shavings,wood blocks,etc.-the fines one would catch sanding dust and very fine sawdust.You pulled a lever to "shake" the fines bag to get the dust to fall into another trash barrel.the single cyclone was made from sheet metal and stood about 10 ft tall.The suction motor blower was on top-was 7 HP.It had to collect the wood dust from several woodworking machines-from table saws to sanders and to a 36" surface planer-that planer generated most of the debris.
