Because the EU put limits on their power to save the planet, go figure that one.

So it takes twice as long to do half as good a job.

 

[Kevtherev]

Can never start ours so leave it

Not all are shite - I bought a Titan wet and dry from Shagfix - literally £37 ish - brilliant machine dropped it several times from 20’ up onto a hard concrete floor and survived - would deffo buy again and brilliant for cleaning all the mud and crap out of tractors

Shark seems to get the thumbs up here, better than the stupidly expensive and gutless Dysons that it replaced.

Cause they suck shite

I made a slight error and bought a bag less numatic wet/dry about 6 months ago?

Numatic CombiVac CVD570 Industrial Wet & Dry Vacuum Cleaner

Wet AND dry pickup ready, no need to change anything!

It's a great Hoover BUT its claims of being dry is rubbish! It does not do normal dust when dry hoovering! It just blocks the mesh filter in a few minutes and dont suck.
Fine for larger dry stuff and wet though.

So to make it useable for me I had to buy a new hose to tub connector so I could then fit a bag in it! Then had to buy the dust filters to go in the tub. So now its basically a very expensive red version with a blue tub
BUT it does now work
Got good suck on it too. Hoover cabs out with it and the van etc but I also hoover the workshop floor! Saves sweeping and then a dust pan to get rid

Thought we might try one of these.

In the house we have a Dyson Animal (not the upright type)

It's got so much suck its actually hard to push/pull around! You need good carpet grippers!

Wouldnt say it's that strong a construction imo but it does work very well and not broke it yet!

Is that not a run way de-icer? looks like a jet engine with fan tail on exhaust

It’s a runway hoover, for sucking up stupid holiday makers after they’ve all caught covid on the plane and dropped dead off the disembarking steps.

vax in this household. wife had a dyson once, bits broke off and couldn't get replacement parts. that was 30yrsago so maybe quality is better now but vax does the job for a lot less money.

You're gonna have to use it in reverse drive mode though, otherwise when you're driving over what you've just hoovered all the sh!t out of the tyre cleats is going to drop off on the carpet

40 year old Henry still going strong but I don't let the bag get too full to prevent the motor getting hot

Ideal for filling a lime spreader!

 

[Cab-over Pete]

Bloody hell!! You might just have the answer!

Got this beast in the kitchen at moment for some reason. Shifted tons of barley with it too. Never given any bother.

We have a vax been great but bying the wife a shark for Christmas. Not sure if curby are still the standard

I think another thing is keeping them clean stripped ours completely and the difference was amazing

plus one for the Titan.

we had a newish dyson that wasn’t very good, choked a lot and the youngest eventually killed when he hoovered out the toilet, so bought a titan for the house and adapted the dyson heads and hose to fit it.

runs like a dream, even with the regular falls down the stairs.
