They have been in pubs and clubs in the uk for a few years now, and they seem to be quite reliable. However, never use one with an open cut on your hand, it hurts!! |

The Dyson hand dryer you came across was an 'Airbalde' These have Dyson's Digital motor which spins 5 times faster than a racing car engine. That's why it is so powerful. It has plenty of Torque in it, making it spin so fast. Hope this helps :) |

Is this the same motor they put in that hand vac?? or is it bigger? I would love to see one of these motors like twice the size. I wonder how long it will last and can it be repaired. anyone know? |

I used them in Birmingham Airport and Rochdale hospital, the motor spins 5X faster than a formula one engine. |

The Dyson Digital Motor is also used (albeit in a much larger size) in the DC22 MotorHead canister, and in a smaller size for the Hand Vacs. There are NO carbon brushes, it will run 'forever' and makes very little heat. Rainbow is the only other vacuum cleaner to use this fantastic motor that has zero emissions.

Is being polite. Stand there drying your hands in a room where others are doing the same and you can't hear yourself think. I have no idea what it is about Dyson and noise, but it seems to be of little concern to them. |

is unfortunately prevalent in UK washrooms too. One of the new breed of unheated hand-dryers, but terribly noisy. |

At school, we have these egg shaped dryers called "Airforce" which are loud but good, not as powerful as Dyson though. |

Vorwerks were all direct air machines up untill the launch of the VK130. Vorwerks were known for their quality and motors that lasted forever. This all changed when they went clean air design. Here in SA the motor failure rate was horrific. I had never seen so many vorwerks with burnt out motors. The new Vk 140 was a huge improvement but was way to noisy and customers who were used to the silence of previous vorwerks did not like this.
