For me it was worth every penny. Had someone bring the next one over from UK for me a Hoover cost 65 pound in argos sale.

the fella asked "have you the kitchen sink in there", "no, we replied a hoover". he could not stop laughing and let us go without having to pay anymore for the extra weight

Out of pure curiosity I went in and asked how much as we had never seen anything related to Dyson in Turkey before, the lass told me it was a very cheap price seeing that they were only available in Istanbul and Izmir at the time and it was the first one in Fethiye, again I asked her the price and she repeated "very good price only 3750. tl....

She looked at me kind of puzzled when I burst out laughing.

I know where there's 2 collecting dust now.

Post by: Jacqui Harvey on November 25, 2011, 16:42:38 PM: I would not give a Dyson house room for two reasons, Firstly, the owner made 865 loyal employees redundant and moved his production to Malaysia. I read recently he had now doubled his profits because he does not have to pay his Malaysian employees as much as he did his British employees.
Secondly, we did have a Dyson before they moved production to Malaysia, it lasted one year before it blew up. When I read reports on Vacuum Cleaners the Dyson did not come out well. The best vacuum cleaner was the Henry which is used by the Hotel trade. We bought a Henry and it's the best vaccum I have every used.

Post by: bewva on November 25, 2011, 19:33:57 PM: We've had 2 Dysons. Best vacuum cleaners in my opinion(wherever they are made) ;)

Post by: Scunner on November 25, 2011, 19:44:49 PM: I think Dysons are the best Hoovers too

Post by: Julesp on November 25, 2011, 20:49:20 PM: I had 2 Dysons in the Uk and personally thought they were rubbish, bought a Bosch a few months before moving here and that was so much better, but I gave it away when i came here !! We have a dyson in the FiG shop But its not for sale! We use it, but if someone donates something better, I may consider selling it!

Post by: Scunner on November 25, 2011, 21:18:17 PM: Now you say that, my mum bought a smaller Dyson and gave us her 'normal' sized one. Since then (around 18 months), I have been three times to the local appliance repair shop with one or the other. They are the best for trapping wasps though.

Post by: Supacabby on November 25, 2011, 21:23:08 PM: According to a well respected vacuum cleaner engineer friend of mine back in the UK the make to have is "Sebo", German engineering at it's very best.

Is the original question about an upright or a cylinder cleaner? Cylinder ones are available on the "back road" in Fethiye or spares can be had from the man in the regular Tue & Sun markets.

Post by: kizkucuk on November 25, 2011, 23:16:09 PM: I had a dyson - wasn't impressed - loved my hoover and Henry and Henrietta's are always rated well - it's hard to find anything that lasts in Turkey - in 2 years I'm on my second kettle, my fryer doesn't fry, and my new fridge and to have a new control panel after 8 months - I'm going with cheap and cheerful from now on - not sure the you get what you pay for is the same here as it was in the UK :-)
