    Thanks OP,
    I had a thread asking about buying a Hoover and this made up my mind.

    Excellent, thanks for this!!

    Do you know what type of V8 it was? V8 animal etc?

    Would be eager to order a "wand" as Dyson refers to them, to effectively turn the trigger into a full dyson stick vacuum.


    I think that it's the absolute model. I'll check the next time that I'm there.

    It’s possible to return the V7 trigger and get a €124 refund...

    My V7 arrived today - waiting on the big ball yoke to arrive tomorrow - great present for the wife for her birthday :)

    Nobody makes cordless vacuums that can compete with Dyson which I think was the point. Hoovering is a pain, plugging in and dragging it around with a cable is a pain. I can see changing to a cordless vacuum as a total game changer in ease of use and keeping a place clean so looking forward to making the plunge. From what I’ve seen there is little or no competition for dyson in this area.

    I bought my parents one for ease of mobility reasons about 2 years ago. They had a Henry for years (it was a great hoover that gave them many years service) but it's big and awkward. My Dad loves the Dyson. I bought my own last year and I love it, can't complain in the slightest about it.

    And when he finished laughing, what did he say?

    Our trigger came yesterday; very handy little thing and I can see us using it alot around the kitchen, couch, stairs, car etc.

    Its a pity it didn't come with a dyson wall mount, but a bit of searching online indicates it will fit some of the current dyson mounts.

    These mounts are essentially just plastic; cheap chinese alternatives readily available for ~9e..... will order one tonight.

    I'd like one of these, got a link?
    I'd also a stick attachment for doing a quick run over the floor.

    I recieved a confirmation email straight away.
    On Tuesday morning t 1am I recieved an email saying my guarantee was activated.
    They arrived on Wednesday morning at about 11am. I got no dispated email and I got a message from an post at 5pm saying they were delivered.
    My address was very faded on them.

    I ordered last Wednesday and both items were delivered Saturday morning by AnPost. I had selected Friday delivery when I ordered
    .
    Its a great deal, and there are plenty of attachments with the main Dyson. Delighted with it. Much quieter than last hoover (which was also a dyson. never gave an ounce of bother, so very happy to go dyson agani)

    Thanks OP !

    I posted earlier about not receiving the V7, I contacted them through email and eventually got back to me, they apologised and said they'd been in touch with the courier and said it would arrive today, and it did. So it's worth going through the email system.

    Hi, I got all the same as above except for the big ball one :mad: I'm thinking it's gone missing in the post!

    I got through to them by mail and they replied last on Saturday that they will contact the courier service, which was AnPost, didn't hear anything since. I've sent them a reminder - thanks for your reply.
