Thanks, Tyler! Appreciate you watching and commenting!

Thank you for this video!!!!! Thank you for moving slowly so that single women such as myself can easily follow it and fix my Dyson. I thought all was lost!

I'm so glad the video was able to help! Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks for sharing! Your video was extremely helpful and I was able to fix my vacuum by following your instructions!

Great video as always Matt. I always look forward to seeing another video from you. This interests me very much. John in Ohio.

Thanks for watching!

[@mattheviewer]

I remember reading several DYSON manuals and they specifically warned users not to vacuum plaster or drywall material. Your video shows why ! Another big minus for "Bagless" vacuums, including Dyson !

[@HouseOfVacuums]

Yeah, they really don't handle home renos well!

[@bread-gz3rl]

This is why I just vacuum my house with Henry and a shop vac lol

[@HouseOfVacuums]

Henry, woot woot! Performance Reviews would be proud.

This is exactly why I like my two windtunnel original internal bag machine they cleans better and with hepa bags they filter well

[@HouseOfVacuums]

The original Windtunnels are great, and the newer bagged ones are not bad at all. Certainly better filtering than a bagless!

[@strayiggytv]

I pulled a dyson dc25 out of a dumpster behind my work place and it was in pretty rough shape. I honestly think it had been used in a cat hoarding situation as it had so much cat hair in it I could have made three cats with it. All the wheels on the motor head assembly were rusted to the point of being frozen and were half circles where the owner had clearly just kept on pushing it around until they had worn them away lol. The rolling brush had barely any bristles left and they were black (melted?!) Into solid lumps on the end. I did a full tear down, blew everything out with a compu-clean, replaced all filters, and eventually replaced the entire assembly head when the wheels proved unsalvageable. It's now my main vacuum :) worked fine once it wasn't dying from cat hair lol. Honestly the greatest investment I feel you can make for the life of your vacuum is an air compressor/ or compu-clean. Blowing out any vacuum at least once a year (with proper respiratory protection) will help any vacuum you buy last longer.

[@HouseOfVacuums]

It is true, proper maintenance can extend the life of almost any vacuum. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@mattheviewer]

Was amazing how much dust got blown out of my properly filtered Sebo FELIX's bag and motor areas after a year's use! Maintenance is important!

[@charlesrodriguez7984]

@@mattheviewer agreed.

[@darthgamer6080]

Gross, I would have never made a machine found in that state my main vacuum. Some machines are just too far gone, probably had rusted out wheels because they became wet from cat or dog urine.

[@nathanielaranda8407]

one reason I like my Kirby! no I don't vacuum up stuff like this, but my Kirby G5 is a 1998 and still kicks butt 😁

[@HouseOfVacuums]

Yup, these WalMart Target brands are just in a completely different class than upper end machines.

[@alexanderjamieson7971]

Dyson's marketing along with selling them everywhere is the culprit. If people knew about how good Henry vacuums from Numatic, or Miele, or Riccar, or Sebo are they wouldn't spend $300 to $800 on Dyson's junk. It shows why companies spend so much on advertising.

[@HouseOfVacuums]

It's very true. I often tell people that Dysons are built like a vacuum half it's price and the rest of that is advertising costs. I will say, their marketing has been very effective... even my Dyson-centric videos on this channel are by far my most viewed. Thanks for watching!

[@ethelryan257]

Amen to that. Overpriced and not that good. There are videos all over of 50 -60 year old Hoover's and even older Kirbys vs out cleaning them.

[@strayiggytv]

Honestly I like dysons but I still think the best place to get them is a dumpster or for $20 at your local goodwill lol they're decent vacuums at that price and so long as your will to fully clean them once a year they do a good job vacuuming.

[@Cleaning_Hero]

If they would just clean them like they are supposed to. I don’t understand why it’s so rare to find people that take care of their appliances, vehicles, etc properly.

[@alexanderjamieson7971]

@Cleaning_Hero a modern hepa bagged vacuum, needs far less cleaning and maintenance than a Dyson. Simply removing a full bag and replacing with a new one is so much better than dealing with a dusty bin chamber.

[@Cleaning_Hero]

Oh my word! Why do people do this to their appliances?

[@timconnell5878]

Looks poorly maintained. Are they vacuuming their yard or garden?Nice quality video.

[@HouseOfVacuums]

Hahaha, yeah, it was a mess. I was told by the owners that her husband vacuumed up drywall dust with is just about the most insidious debris out there. They won't be doing that again! Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@drvacuum5697]

Maybe you could lease one of those dry & wet multi purpose vacuums which can be used for DIY-work or home renovations (e.g. for plaster dust) to your customers? They are pretty cheap so it should pay for itself in no time. Great video as always!

[@HouseOfVacuums]

Interesting idea, I'll have to mull that over a bit! True dust remediation vacuums are in a class of their out. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@bread-gz3rl]

Get a dewalt if you do

[@Cleaning_Hero]

Any vacuums capable of vacuuming chalk and not getting destroyed in the process? I know of a gymnastics facility that struggles with that.

[@nicoleloomis4878]

Need a video on how to replace the charge over hose

[@HouseOfVacuums]

I'll put that on my list when I come across one that needs it. Thanks, Nicole!

[@Orpheusthebordecollie]

can you make a dyson v8 v7 service video plz

[@LuxAudio389]

Dyson's look nice, but in reality, as you pointed out, they require more frequent maintenance than a good or great bagged vacuum. Plus to me they look like they use too much colorful, but chincy plastic. There are so many points that restrict airflow from the diameter of the hose and other points that can get clogged before the cyclone chamber. That being said their marketing is genius. The only Dyson products we buy or my wife likes are their hair care products.

[@HouseOfVacuums]

Yup, bagless is a lot of work! I also agree on Dyson's hair care products... while they are crazy expensive, they work very well. My wife has had the hair dryer for 2 years and it is pretty fantastic.

[@b1riley1000]

Seems like it makes more sense to just replace the entire Cyclone assembly every couple years.

[@HouseOfVacuums]

The issue there, other than cost (~$35), is parts availability. The cone pack for a UP16 is currently out of stock pretty much everywhere, which is becoming more and more of an issue for Dyson. If it is not a typical wear part, they often aren't even importing the parts. Unfortunately, for a lot of these Dyson models cleaning is really the only option. Thanks for the comment!

[@charlesrodriguez7984]

@@HouseOfVacuums proper maintenance can help most vacuums last longer.

[@matthewblouin4267]

I have a Dyson dc41 vacuum and my bin latch broke so the bin won't hold onto the machine anymore

[@HouseOfVacuums]

Unfortunately, they tend to do that with age. However, a quick search on eBay should be able to get you one for a moderate price. Good luck!

[@peterbassett4931]

Can you do a Kirby Vacuum video

[@HouseOfVacuums]

I'll try to add that to my queue. Thanks for watching and the suggestion!

[@bread-gz3rl]

Step one: cut them up with a sawzall Step two: throw the scrap metal in the back of a rotted out truck of your choice Step three: take it to the scrapyard and get the maximum value they have Step four: buy a henry and a Hoover hushtone for 400$+ less

[@rfmsuper]

What is that spray you use to clean the plastic?

[@HouseOfVacuums]

For dust, I use Windex. For grease, Members Mark purple degreaser undiluted. For stinky vacuums, I use Knok-Out.

Hi! What is your opinion on the Samsung Jet 75/90 cordless vacuum? Do you think they are reliable?

[@HouseOfVacuums]

The performance on the Samsung units is fine, certainly comparable to other units on the market. The real issue is that Samsung does not have any parts distribution. So if you need a part other than a battery or a filter that you can buy from their consumer site, you are pretty much out of luck. Probably the best cordless stick for long-term parts support is the Miele HX-1. All the parts are widely available online and through their dealer network. Hope that helps!

[@匿名的-1]

@@HouseOfVacuums Thanks for your answer. Yeah, the parts distribution is terrible I can't even buy batteries from the official Samsung website here which is pretty disappointing not gonna lie. Anyways I wish you a very nice day, goodbye.

I'd get the ryobi HP pet stick vac tbh, plus you can take the battery out and go build a shed
