A new internal hose and brushroll might be a future purchase, their letting the whole machine down!

Oh Beko, I've given my DC11 a mini strip down tonight. I've done the bin with wd40 and took a picture for you to see how it has come up.

Oh also you know your cyclone is melted, an absolute purple and limes cyclone would surely Match. Just change the handle so that it's got the limited edition on it still. Assuming it's the same shade of purple ???

That DC11 is new, don't kid us. Seriously that's great, was it very hazy before, or did you get lucky and get a clean one under all the dirt?

No, their two shades of purple, so that won't work. Leaving that for now, the amount of stuff I still need to buy for it is too much as it is, definatly no profit in this one! I also keep using it to clean out other machines, so the cyclone needs a re-wash now!

Waiting impatiently for my de Stijl to arrive, so Ive tested some autoglym super resin Polish on my dc04 purple lime, I'm impressed! Also on the DC07, looks like bloody glass!!

And again on my pride and joy :)


I love my machines

That is a very lovely Turbopower Junior. Looks fairly new, if you post the serial number up I could date it for you.

Do you have the instructions? If you ever run out of rroom to keep it...

I don't have instructions for it I'm afraid, to be honest I'm not a fan of the machine it freaks me out for odd reason. I'm thinking of putting it on ebay to sell it on and give it a loving home as it just sits in my attic at the moment :(

My new internal hose finally showed up



Hopefully this will make it work on the floor again, compared to the old one this one is pracitcally rigid! Will strip the brushroll housing out and clean up the pivot points as well just to be sure, and clean the cyclone again as I've been using it to clean out other vacs as I refurb them!
