There are a couple of YouTube videos from AvE (he takes a bit of getting used to, but he knows a fair bit about electronics) about a Dyson vacuum cleaner [1] and hair dryer [2]. Lots of moulded plastic and glue, little substance. On the other hand, Miele recently repaired an old vacuum cleaner [3] that worked for 30 years before breaking. [1] [VIDEO] [2] [LINK] [3] [LINK]
Sorry about that! Thanks for pointing it out. Viewer discretion: language. [1]: DYSON ANIMAL BALLS | It blows! [VIDEO]
Dyson takes the cheapest panasonic parts that exists, puts a fancy case around it, and sells it for massive margins. Here's a detailed teardown of a dyson vacuum: [VIDEO] Try a Miele next time, that's a genuine high quality vacuum cleaner that will last you a lifetime.
