I think Google got me here when looking to fix my DC14's clutch and Beko's OCD pictorials got me to stay.

Beko is dreamy.

Sickening lol.

Hello, I found you guys while searching the internet for answers as to why my dyson keeps shutting off. :(

Found your site and a great link to Manchestervacs. Have already placed an order. This was following a call to Dyson asking for the prices of spare parts for DC14, and the customer services agent refused to tell me and wanted me to book an engineer's visit! So thanks Dyson Forums, I hope my order meets expectation.

Thanks for the welcome. My Dyson DC14 All Floors is just really dusty and smelly now, despite washing filters. Now the long hose has split, so I have ordered a new hose, pre-motor filter and post-motor filter pad from Manchester Vacs, who were very helpful. I hope the new parts may sort out the problem. Was thinking of buying a new Dyson but the attitude of customer services today has made me think I won't.

Welcome to the site.  :tiphat:

If you do get round to considering a new machine, I'd take a look at a Sebo over a new Dyson.

You don't need a new machine! If it still smells musty with the new filters, spend an afternoon following my rebuild guide and it will be as new! Both smell wise and performance wise

I prefer old dyson machines to Sebo, but I prefer Sebo to new Dysons...

that awful Clic pink

For anyone that doesn't know about the awful Clic pink, here is a picture I took in the shop of one last year.

(Attachment Link)

 :sick0012:

I think they were a special edition with part of the profits going to breast cancer research.

A couple of months ago, a lady called our shop and asked for one of those "three tone Barbie pink Dysons" that she couldn't find anywhere. Apparently, she was a girlie pink girl. Her house was pink, her car was pink. She wanted a pink Dyson too!

We had a couple in the back, and we rebuilt one for her. She was overjoyed when she got it!  :icon_nod:

Thanks for the feedback Russ. Anyone else reading, please chip in and tell us how you found us.
I think they were Cancer and Leukemia in Children limited edition

Hi

Just signed up as we just had our first Dyson disaster and found this site via a Google search looking for some info.  For information, I Googled "can I fit a Dyson Cinetic cyclone to a non Cinetic model?" and you were about 5 down on the list if that helps. ;)

Anyway, having had a look around so far, there is some very interesting info.  I've already got a few questions, but I'll wait until I've had a good look before posting.

Hi! Good luck finding some, your probably more likely to find a used but good pair! If it helps your Google fu, they might be listed under CAR20, VC143 or the OE hoover part number was 09021627 which is what the largest spares place used to list them as (they may still be going, but I don't have an account).

Good luck! I may have some somewhere, but have no idea where, but if you get stuck, shout and I'll have a look!
