The First Dyson vacuum - The Story of Dyson

[@YoumuHoover]

The part when Tom talking to James about Rainbow is funny

[@NapSiu-b3c]

You mean rainbow vacuums?

[@bionicangel123]

Never thought I’d say this but I could listen to this guy talk vacuums all day truly fascinating

[@aaaaeeeeffffeeeekkkkssss]

"Mr I spent my life inventing things" Is one of the best descriptions of James Dyson I ever heard.

[@MrBikboi]

This was a really fantastic listen, "nobody collects vacuum cleaners!"

[@TheBlueMeanie]

This guy is a treat to watch.

Well dang I learned something new about Dyson today thank you! My goodness how much Dyson has changed. You guys definitely taught us a lot, I appreciate it!

[@blakaeg]

I do not believe the story that Dyson only decided to not renew his contract because he is not a stupid man. He was getting rich off them first and with the income of his UK, European and Australasia markets allowed him to have enough money to launch Dyson America as the US is one of his biggest markets! Sir James likes to bend the truth and do what benefits him. He has little care for the people who work for him. Electrolux own Zanussi. Tom is excellent. Always used to enjoy reading his posts in 2001 on vacuumland. He is very passionate about Dyson and I could listen to him all day!

[@KirbyVacuumCollectorFixer]

That was a great Convention! Hearing this story was really cool. And I’m glad I got to meet you.

[@UXXV]

Wow! This guy is the Steve Wozniak of cleaners. What a story teller, I’ve no idea how I ended up here but I watched the full vid!

[@doct0rnic]

I remember the Phantom as a kid, seeing it on TV I was blown away on the futuristic design and even that ring that would go up and down,

[@prudentcustomer3594]

Oh cool, I have a Dyson DC01 that I bought from Tom for my collection. I think he originally got it from James with his other early Dyson machines

[@JonathanG94]

I've met Tom Gasko multiple times. Very interesting guy.

[@StefsVacsnMore]

Thanks for coming down man I loved getting to meet you and you did such a wonderful job with this video

[@ronaldstrik]

What a story! I enjoyed it very much. Thanks for sharing!

[@krantz55]

I DO NOT like Amway’s business model. I also never would condone what they did to James Dyson. However, the CMS 1000 and ClearTrak have lasted my family for over 30 years of regular household use. Built very sturdy. Gets deep down dirt that other machines miss. Especially the cheap modern big box store ones…. Just my opinion. :) Great video! Very informative.

[@nicko5945]

Fantastic video and thanks for posting it. I could listen to Tom talk vacuums all day!!

[@chrisj.1608]

this dude is a true story teller this was an awesome story!

[@Retro_andy_1977]

Absolutely fascinating - even in the uk didnt know some of the information - in particular the very early stuff! I knew about the hoover vortex copy of the dyson dc01 and james rightfully sued hoover - fair play james!

[@mitchellfox1998]

Awesome video! Can see some very slight similarities between this and the first Fantom model, which Dyson did design himself. I would love to see one in person someday.

[@GriffinPearson]

This was an awesome history lesson

[@scottdunn4506]

This is a cool vacuum I need to go to that vacuum museum it looks awesome there

[@nightwolf883]

I met Tom back in 2013, he’s a cool guy

[@jaedenspider877]

1:47 the GPS talking in the background 🤣😂 Edit: love your vids by the way

[@gmlover82]

Fantastic video

[@PerformanceReviews]

Thank you!

[@VacMaster2020]

Interesting hearing that full story about fantom and Amway

[@mattjones7621]

Interesting. I must add that I LOVE that early 500 series Kirby around 7:03 ;-)

[@alisonsmith4436]

😊😊😊thank you so much 😊

[@aurorayoru5333]

The Bissell vacuum basically looks like a workhorse Vacuum

[@m.v.5425]

The old Lewyt square big wheel had bags in the early ‘60’s with the plastic window in them.

[@natej4230]

Is it open to all collectors? I'll try to go next year if it is

[@guitarplayerforu]

Great Video, absolutely fascinating 👌😊. As a British guy myself, do I think Dyson Vacuums are good? Sure! Do I think they're the best vacs out there, definitely not. My Numatic James has far better suction and airflow than our DC40 animal Erp that will be 5 years old in January, and I've already said to my mum that I plan on Replacing our DC40 with a Sebo Felix next year sometime, multi-cyclonic vacs like Dyson's are very good, but the modern bagged vacs perform even better 👍 With the latest HEPA bag technology, bagged vacs don't really lose suction or airflow as the bag fills like they used to with the old style single layer paper bags, at the time the Dyson was invented 👍

[@timconnell5878]

Interesting story.

[@IntellitechStudios]

It's in Missouri!??? Well fuck me I gotta go next time!!! Also note: my bissell Powerglide came with one of those "window" bags in it. Too bad it was packed full or I'd have kept it. It was a fascinating idea.

[@PerformanceReviews]

I remember specifically having a VC with you in Discord and telling you you need to meet us down there. Hope to see you next year!

[@IntellitechStudios]

@@PerformanceReviews you know I have the memory of a goldfish lol. I will definitely do my best to make it!

[@FrenchFryCheese04]

The snack that smiles back, goldfish

[@chaosvii4605]

"Here's my original dyson one of only 500!" Steps on the cord, almost breaks the tubing forcing it on, drops the attachment and runs it over... This was hard to watch lol

[@PerformanceReviews]

That video has been watched thousands of times and nobody else thought any of that. 🤔

[@peterbassett4931]

Is he from Saint James Missouri from the Vacuum Museum used to be

[@keithparker117]

what a great story that he tailing about the dyson ltd.the same thing that happen to apple computer and IBM.

[@jayambermsp8000]

Wasn't the DC01 the first vacuum? This one in the video was a prototype?

[@PerformanceReviews]

No this was the first Dyson upright. pretty much every dyson is a prototype 😂

[@solsburian]

Dyson (and later bagless companies) get a lot of flack (and rightly so these days), but in retrospect, the cyclonic system was far better than other contemporary bagless systems (i.e., a simple filter in the way of the motor that quickly clogged) and probably no worse than paper bagged equipped machines at the time (i.e. where the performance really did degrade quickly). However, the invention of the synthetic fleece bag that allows for high airflow and filtration should have been the game changer, regardless of the vintage of the machine. But I guess bagless is now seen as more mainstream, despite how unhygienic it is to empty, and the strain it puts on filters etc. At the end of the day, I suppose that means more sales of spare parts and replacement machines for the big players.

[@whelenvortexr4]

I preferred bagged vacuums, they're a lot more sanitairy.

[@JJ9715]

Why doesn’t Dyson still produce the Dual Cyclone vacuum? I know that they have newer technologies on the market, such as Radial Root Cyclone. I still like the Dual Cyclone’s design.

[@RyanSellman1]

I guess they focus on using more efficient technologies for their vacuums.

[@Kubulek17]

The patent expired, that meant other manufacturers could now use it and they wanted to 1 up them

[@flameonhood]

Wait do you actually have one

[@markbutel5466]

i dont think a fantom upright would work with washabal filters

[@iangrice329]

There ain't half some crap talked about British homes. Most carpets are mixed man made fiber. Most are fited on padded underlay.

[@edog1o163]

I wanna hear him talk about rainbow

[@marklloyd4153]

Bags r best

[@chch949]

I prefer a central vacuum system then the Dyson.

[@AmericansAlwaysFree]

The worst thing about dyson is just how “obsolete” it has made bagged vacuums (Now that I have a central vac it’s not so big of a deal)

[@m.v.5425]

I didn’t like my Dyson/or any bagless at all.

[@flameonhood]

The wierdest looking vacuum

[@davcuts2897]

So we have Amway to blame.

[@Kaiden-q2q]

Hoover did not copy Dyson

[@PerformanceReviews]

They sure did in the UK and lost the case. There's plenty of records about this.

[@281cu6]

Dyson has a long history of making misleading claims.

[@WatticusGameTime]

It's a sad story... Because... Dyson really SUCKS... 😂😂😂😂😂

[@WatticusGameTime]

Hello World 🌍 Today is Thursday, May 16th 2024. I am literally in my bed 🛏️ in room 122 of Magnolia Tree Hotel on Harbor Blvd in Anaheim, CA after another Wild Watticus night at Disneyland. This is a true story from last night... I was in California Adventure and I saw a group of boys that looked like they were there at the park for Grad Night. I approached them and asked if they were. They confirmed it. Then I asked if they were 18 years old. They confirmed it. Then I asked them if they wanted to play the game. They all said yes. I proceeded to give each one of them a Golden Ticket. 4 of them got 2 Half Dollars for a prize value of $1.00 and the 5th young man, the one who raised his hand first to pick my envelope ✉️, he got $2.00 in the form of a crisp two dollar 💵 bill. (I will post the serial number of that bill in a few minutes) To finish the story... Unbeknownst to me at the time I was giving them their Golden Tickets and their prize money... Apparently, their chaperone for grad night believed that I was giving them food or something nefarious... I'm not sure why the chaperone thought that, but I assume it was possibly because I was just finishing my burger and fries 🍟 when those boys came and sat on a boulder near me... This bench and boulder are directly across from the Smoke Jumpers Grill/Cafe/Restaurant Right by fire hydrant #32 Anyway, as the story goes, the chaperone reported me to security and then I was tailed by a security guy named Anthony for quite awhile. He didn't realize that I knew he was taking me, but, I did notice him on my tail... He eventually accosted me inside a store and said that security had received a complaint from the chaperone that I was giving out food to minors... That is total B.S. The real reason they stopped me is because Disneyland has a "policy" of no self promoting or anything like sharing business cards inside the park... That is also total B.S. I was told I could not network or pass my business cards to anyone... That's what Anthony, the security guard, told me. He was also with another larger guy but I can't remember the bigger dudes name... In short, it only added to my theory that giant corporations are afraid of a guy like me. A guy who is trying to do something new and fun and the Disney Corporation isn't happy with me because they are unable to get the inside information about me... Anthony did take pictures of both my Utah Driver's License and my Enchant Key Annual Pass from off my Disneyland App on my Google Pixel 8 Pro smart phone. It was a disturbing encounter with Disneyland Security and it was an encounter I shall not soon forget. I was super worried about being trespassed like I was by Brian at Smith's Kroger in Bountiful. They assured me that I was in trouble because I was being compliant with them. I didn't believe them because they took my information and said they had to file an "incident report" So now I know that I am in their "system" all thanks to some overly concerned chaperone who made some critical judgements about a guy who was only there to have fun at the park with some adults. Sad day for GTTG. The Treasure Hunt will still continue, but I won't be able to do as much in Disneyland as I hoped to due to this crazy encounter from last night. I will post the serial number of the 2 Dollar Bill in a separate post because that image is on this phone and I don't want to lose all this written post for any reason. It's taken me 21 minutes to post this... I am Wild Watticus Watts wondering... Watts Yer Story? Go Build it Today! High Yaw Hee Yaw!!! 🕳️🐛🕳️🐛🕳️🐛🕳️🐛🕳️🐛🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍊🍊🍊🍊🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🇦🇺🇨🇦🇧🇷🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
