Dyson DC25 Curbfind | What Killed It? | Part 1

[@vacuumtests9225]

Wow! This has had abuse like no other. You already know that it's going to be bad when the post motor filter has tons of dust in it. Pre motor filter in bagless vacuums can't take big amount of dust without passing it to the motor. Again one vacuum ruined because lack of very basic mainentance. Definitely not worth fixing because getting access to the motor is a big operation in these and it probably needs whole new motor anyway. It's just too worn out. Used good condition DC25 doesn't cost much. So that's why I wouldn't bother with this one. You did the right decision to dump it. But wait. There is part 2 coming. That will be interesting👍👍

Everybody take cover, the siren had went off😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 but poor vacuum cleaner and this is why I don’t let nobody use my vacuum cleaner

[@WJCTechyman]

hearing those bearings, I immediately said, "Sounds Siren-rific!" Then your slow-mo came with "air raid siren" as a caption.

[@Alexscott100]

I got one of these for free off Facebook today and it wasn’t clogged, and the filters were decent and it over all wasn’t in bad shape at all. The woman claimed it didn’t have any suction. I couldn’t find anything wrong with it

[@titanicclockguy]

You can make a cool Halloween ghost busters costume out of all of the pieces you have there that's what lm doing with mine if l can't get the roller Too start turning

[@therandomman6647]

It's hard to believe someone used that and just thought it was normal!

[@X6800]

I found this same model in gray 6 years ago on the curb. Not sure why it was thrown out other than being clogged. But it does sound a little weird (to me) when powering down.

[@randycollens2681]

That’s the post motor filter, rubber seal gets hard when old and doesn’t create a good seal, hence the noice. Quick check, take it off and shut it down

[@andrewdye7881]

When you turned it on in slow motion, it sounded like a tornado siren going off

[@jacksvacssafety2620]

Sirens and vacuums run off of a similar principle, just different uses and air paths.

[@RealPixelDude]

i just don't know how they get in that condition. our one was abused by my family for almost 8 years and never looked like that. and later on in its life the filter went missing and it was used without it. it still works now but the ball gets stuck and there is no filter.

[@cartervacuumsandmore1188]

That really sounds like water damage to me (like the motor was wet at some point in time) because it sounds like some very abused carpet washers I’ve seen, and sometimes the motors sound like that.

[@e.jharris3498]

DC 25s are typically very hardy machines. This thing was severely abused

[@andrewherrera2736]

probably drywall dust or run it till it died i would fix it and sell it probably good profit to be made

[@jeremywilliams4493]

Keep the filters and the attachments as a spare for your dc25

[@VacLab]

Yup!

[@FrenchFryCheese04]

The filters are key lol

[@thatvacuumgeek]

you should save it. i don’t see many red dc25s

[@hamzahassan7730]

Could give it a thorough clean up, replace a few parts, and sell it for some money

[@leebarker539]

If the air is going one direction through a filter, I am unclear why you blow air at it both ways in an apparent effort to clean it. I have much to learn about DC25s.

[@VacLab]

Once you get proficient in the cleaning and restoration process, you'll understand why.

[@mdpatton2]

Do you still have the machine? I need a power cord

[@VacLab]

Sorry, I don't sell machines or parts.

[@randycollens2681]

Any power cord will work.

[@zmanifest]

I’m a serious Dyson Collector, but I don’t want this one because the motor is shot.

[@jeremynguyen2346]

Hey 👋

[@tgawron2233]

That's a shame.

[@carlrichards8189]

Yet another reason why I absolutely hate Dyson with a passion then again I dislike any bagless vacuum except a shark

[@fracturedmind8124]

Sharks are even worse than Dysons. At least with Dyson you can at least get parts.

[@thatvacuumgeek]

@@fracturedmind8124 Sharks last longer if taken care of.

[@FrenchFryCheese04]

Dear god it sounds really bad
