Another innovative move by Dyson! Looks awesome! But the price? Hmmm... |

why not design the assembly so that it can be cleaned occasionally? |

Can't open the link, but I can imagine Vacuumland 2023 - 'Just picked a DC54 up from the kerb, utterly ruined as the filters not been touched in 10 years. New filters, stripdown and cleanup and it's good as new etc' |

The DC01 was the WORST of the lot for filter clogging. One of the major modifications on the DC04 and something that made the cleaner a LOT better was the resigned filters.
I'm pleased to see Dyson are, at the very least, trying to reduce the maintenance on their cleaners. Hopefully these new ones might last a bit longer as I know plenty of Dyson uses who threw out their cleaners just because it "wasn't sucking" and needed a filter clean. A great idea, lets see how well it works. These will come down in price pretty rapidly. Dyson's usually do. |

"if they will never get dirty then there must be no dirt to catch, so why have a filter when there is nothing TO filter?" I like that. |

The cyclone assembly has a row of osscolating, silicon cyclones that mean the fine dust that hits them immediately drops out and back into the cyclone assembly, so fine dust is continually recirculated through the cyclone until you switch the cleaner off, when the dust simply falls to the bottom of the bin.
The cleaner has no pre-motor filter |

Thing is, Dyson could just use acetate instead of silicone or any other flexible material - what would have to be proved is that over a course of usage if dust really falls through and doesn't stick to the material. The slightest moisture in the air could affect dust to stick, or dust that itself is sticky to begin with. Yet again though its a good idea in theory, its more of this marketing push for consumers to care about how dust is captured.

The cleaner has no pre-motor filter" The high efficiency cyclones drop the dirt back into the low efficiency cyclone? |
