The 3 main problems these ball series vacuums have is like you noticed, the lower hose inlet clogs up. The other issue is with frequent use the plastic kickstand wears out and it will not stay up on its own anymore, and the third thing is if you ever have to service the motor, you need to be a NASA physicist to get that ball assembly back together again! I don't recall the Ball series cleaners ever getting much hate for their performance, just their looks people didn't find suited them. Some of the models are also really tiny, it's almost like a kid's vacuum. The seem to take abuse well which is surprising for the intricacy of the design mechanics. I have one I found at Goodwill, and I am not joking you, I weighed it, the bin has 7 pounds of dirt and sand inside it! It is absolutely filthy! It's like someone tried to clean their back garden or something, what a mess. |

with you evolutionclean. a few years ago Costco had the Death Star on the Dyson ball animals. I bought the last one. It was the demo out of box for $99. That was my first Dyson. Overall I really like it. It does feel cheap and you can tell the latches won't last long. Im happy with the purchase and it is fun to use
