hoytdwow 202 Posted September 19, 2013 No. I just bought a $90 Hoover that was rated nearly twice as good as a Dyson in Consumer Reports. I know people love them some Dyson, but they're just not worth the cost. Save your money; buy a Hoover WindTunnel T Series Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scott4507 4 Posted September 19, 2013 I'm not gonna rip on Dyson, but why pay so much to vacuum? Is it really THAT much better than some of the others or just a status symbol, as quoted above....... Check out the Shark Professional Navigator upright, also sold at BB&B (so 20% coupon also applies) at a little over half the price of a Dyson. I'm now a Shark fan.

Sho Nuff 720 Posted September 20, 2013 Don't know crap about the Hoover. In laws had Dysons and swore by them...wife bought one a few years ago on the whole Black Friday thing.

MTSkiBum 1,620 Posted September 20, 2013 I have a Dyson and I like it. I waited until they were 100 dollars off at Bed, Bath, and Beyond and then used a 20 dollar coupon on top of it. There are probably vacuums out there that do just as good of job for less money, but will they last as long, will you be able to buy a replacement motor if needed, are they as light, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoytdwow 202 Posted September 20, 2013 There are probably vacuums out there that do just as good of job for less money, but will they last as long, will you be able to buy a replacement motor if needed, are they as light, etc. If you believe the folks at Consumer Reports, Hoovers not only cost hundreds less than Dysons, but are better machines into the bargain.

Jeff Garcia 8 Posted September 20, 2013 When we bought our Dyson, we vacuumed with our Hoover WindTunnel. Right afterwards we used the Dyson. No comparison.
