Some time ago Dyson discontinued all support and spare parts supply for the DC04 as we mentioned here: Dyson Are Ending Parts & Service Support for the DC04 Range. While the supply of parts hasn’t yet diminished terribly due to the aftermarket, some spares are starting to become elusive to obtain new. For this reason, […]
This article first appeared at Manchester Vacs. Some may have noticed already that the cost of genuine Dyson spares has just massively increased. Some parts have gone up over 100%. It seems to be right across the board. It won’t have filtered through to every sales platform as yet, because people are sat on stock […]
The Dyson DC04 is one of the classic Dyson models of vacuum cleaner dating from the late-nineties that is what we call the Ford Transit of Dysons: It does everything you want it to, and doesn’t break down very often if you do simple maintenance. It does what it says on the tin. Decade after […]
This article first appeared at Manchester Vacs. Sebo versus Dyson? It’s a big question and one that is popping up more and more. As Dyson focus more and more on cordless and handheld machines (of which they are the undisputed market leader), robots and other domestic appliances (like hairdryers), the more traditional vacuum cleaner buyer, […]
After 5 years of prototyping, the Kleeneze Rotork Cyclon was the first production vacuum cleaner created by James Dyson. He was funded by Rotork (his former employer) and these were made for him by Zanussi in Italy.

Already Dyson Medic’s recommended parts supplier, Manchester Vacs has relocated to much larger premises making them the biggest independent specialist Dyson parts supplier in the north of England. Manchester Vacs is not a new business; they were at their previous location on nearby Abbey Hey Lane in Gorton for almost a decade. A family business; […]
Dyson have traditionally made tool fitment difficult. For example, the DC15 had a set of tools all of its own. They fitted no other model. The DC19 had a possibility of two totally different types of tool socket; fitment depending on if it is a telescopic wrap or not. That causes parts sellers a world […]
Don’t you just hate it when a simple solution to an old problem falls in your lap, and then you find out it was there all along and you never noticed? That is what happened today. A good customer of mine wanted a mini turbine tool for his DC07, and was complaining that the well-regarded […]
Dyson turbine heads (sometimes called turbo heads) are the full size vacuum-driven heads that come with many models of cylinder or canister Dyson vacuum cleaners. They are designed to replicate the beater bar action of a conventional upright vacuum cleaner by utlising a rotating brush on the carpet to dislodge dirt. You can buy them […]
