Shark vacuum


Rosetta

Recommended Posts

Judging by comments I have seen online, some people say Sharks are wonderful, some say Dysons are wonderful, some say Sharks are rubbish, some say Dysons are rubbish.


Have you looked at the Which reviews? Funnily enough I've got a load of stuff in front of me at the mo, because I'm toying with the idea of getting a cordless vacuum, and I see that Which does compare the two (though not necessarily the models you are looking at, I guess).

According to Which? there's not much between Dyson ans Shark - except the price.


The best of each in their latest survey was

Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal 2 (?299) and the

Shark Lift Away True Pet NV601UKT (?184).

Even cheaper - and as good - was the AEG X Force VX6-2-CB-P (?99).

Which (and other reviews) found the Dyson V11 to be head and shoulders above any other cordless vacuum.


It is eye wateringly expensive, however it's presently on offer at both Dyson and John Lewis -?100 off. Still eye wateringly expensive though :))

All of these tests were done AFTER the EU imposed power restrictions on vacuum cleaners. The majority of vacuums since then are in the power range of 700-900watts so as to comply with the 80Db noise limit also. Previously the best vacuums were in the power of 1200 - 1500 watts.


Power generally equates to the strength of the suction provided, hence none of the latest models have seriously impaired performance compared to previously. Simply put they suck because they don't have enough suck.

    • @Earl, Be assured, it is purely a local group. In fact it is a genteel group of Dulwich area residents, mostly ladies , who are a little  reluctant to publish their individual names as they do not wish to be targets for hostility from internet trolls. Local residents who attended the anti-LTN gatherings in Dulwich would have easily recognised the active members of the group. Should you have any queries about funding, it is quite easy to send them an email.
    • Hi  I have a spare old wheelbarrow that you could have for free. You’d need to come and collect it from Telegraph Hill, so drop me a message if you’re still looking and we can arrange a time best wishes carrie
    • This is quite a serious allegation. What evidence is there of this? Pressured how and by whom? This is quite a spin on ‘it’s been agreed with the emergency services’. They think the vehicles pictured driving through with partially covered plates are the result of ‘poor signage’ 🤔  If it is as they say ‘small numbers’ driving through the square, that doesn’t suggest that the signage is unclear. I mean who honestly believes it’s possible to drive through there without noticing the signs / planters (assuming you’re driving with due care and attention)?! 🤨  Also, haven’t ‘One’ opposed any improvements to the layout / landscaping and signage proposed by Southwark? It’s all a bit desperate. At the height of the LTN ‘controversy’ a number of co-ordinated ‘One’ groups popped up across London. It doesn’t feel like a local grassroots movement, but has all the hallmarks of astroturfing. The lack of transparency about it’s funding / sponsorship and structure does not help with this impression. 
    • Hi there, My children and I are adopting 4 ex-battery hens and seeking a secondhand home for them, let me know if you have anything, of any style that might fit four feathered ladies in. I can collect at your convenience this weekend or during the week.    Warmest, Hannah
