So today i decided to put a stick vac freshener on my dysons post motor filter and i wondered if this could cause damage to the machine ?

If you use the disc ones, it can impede air flow has always been my thought.

I always put air fresheners there, and have never had issues with overheating due to airflow impedement. I use the disc type. Stu hates them, but I get people asking me for a new one when it stops smelling!

My DC04 has a disc one on top of the post filter, the airflow seems normal to me :) No change in sound either

It'll be fine, you know it will.
You saw my video on how to use the fresheners

I always use a disk fresher on mine with no diffrence, I did upgrade my standard filter to hepa though on my absolute because the original owner has replaced it

Don't panic, put a lavender in it.

hi there my granddad has been putting disk air freshers in his dyson for over 10 years and no problems yet

just keep the filters clean and empty the bin before it gets full and it should last a good while

I hoped we have all helped in some way
