I remember going to the local waste dump about two or so years after the Dyson vacuum cleaner came out and seeing a shit ton of them in a shipping container. As I was throwing my rubbish away I asked a worker why and got the reply that a specific part inside always breaks so they put them all together and a company collects them to fix up as resell.
Which was a good thing to do, but I left there thinking, “yeah I’m not ever buying a Dyson anything.”
I’ve not followed the company but it does seem that every time they bring out a product all they’ve done is reinvent the wheel and then marketed the shit out of it.
Here’s a pretty interesting vid on it. TL;DW Its a capacitor next to the motor that easily overheats and breaks. I hope whatever company it is repairing them also installs a better cap.
I did read somewhere that it was a plastic impeller type thing that would break due to the speed, not a capacitor. Though both can be true. Either way, thanks.

Interesting.

Yea they probably have multiple issues, considering these tend to be designed form over function so durability is likely sacrifced in many areas
