Side note: as a cleaner, stick vacuums are the worst. I've cleaned houses where the owners excitedly told me they'd "upgraded" to a stick vacuum and OH GOD I could only smile while screaming internally. Sure, they're very handy to quickly suck up crumbs, and they're easier to carry up and down stairs, but when you got to vacuum a whole house your wrist is going to hate you after the first half hour. And vacuuming under furniture is no fun because unlike a hose vacuum that you can easily shove under there with one hand, stick vacuums are heavier and you have to bend/squat down, all while keeping your hand on the button otherwise it turns off. Not to mention battery life is a pain and oftentimes the damn thing died on me halfway through the 2nd floor and I had to resort back to broom and pan :(

[@rmgalardo]

@@bookaddict209 To add to gabotron94 with a brand recommendation: I got the Shark Pet Vacuum (don't know the *exact* model) four or five years ago. I had (at the time) all carpets in a 2400 sq ft home (minus kitchen and 2 bathrooms). I haven't had to purchase a new one and it is exactly what she/he(?) is talking about - a canister with filters. Never had to replace the filters, just wash them out. I have 3 dogs (4 at the time; one was a foster that found a forever home), 7 cats, several rats and have had more than a score of baby chicks in a brooder (those create hella dust) at different times. 100% worth the $170ish dollars I paid at the time. I was also a maid for two years in SoFla and flat out refused to use customer Dyson stick vacuums or knock-offs for the EXACT reasons OP stated.

[@katl5357]

Personally I can see your points, however I dont think they apply to everyone. For example we have had our cordless vacuum cleaner for close to 3 years now. I agree, it was tiring on our shoulders at first (wrists not so much) , but After a little while you truly get used to it. My shoulder does not hurt any more, even when using it for a prolonged period. I guess it highly depends on what vacuum you buy, I am sure some are more heavy than others. I also cant confirm your issues with vacuuming underneath furniture. Back when I used my corded vacuum I still had to bend down to clean underneath furniture. I dont find using my cordless vacuum any more tiring. And whether the battery lasts for an entire vacuum of the house highly depends on the size of your home, the vacuum you have. Our vacuum is now three years old and while the battery life sure has suffered and gotten shorter, we can still manage to vacuum our entire place on one charge (200 sq. m.). We have a xioami vacuum btw. Our specific vacuum also has a Button to keep the vacuum running so you dont have to continuously press the button.

10:49 “the battery life goes from 50 hours to two hours” that is without a doubt one of the funniest lines on this channel

[@winterlogical]

Fun fact: James Dyson tried over 5000 different prototypes of a bagless vacuum cleaner before getting a manufacturer on board - and that manufacturer only sold in Japan. Dyson used that money to launch his own business. The rest is history. So, of all inventors, Mr. Dyson seems to be familiar with hit and misses a lot. All that said, I just hope there aren't 5000 prototypes of these headphones LOL

[@klausstock8020]

Yep, Dyson tried to copy an industrial bagless cyclone vacuum he once saw in a sawmill. It's impressive that be built 5127 prototypes in five years... In any case, I guess his patented idea is just to use cyclonic separation in a (domestic) appliance. And to provide at least one "industrial strength" feature (apart from the pink color), he added an "industrial strength" price (equivalent to 10,000€ in 2023 money,).

[@tow.JanWinnicki]

I would say, he is not a really good inventor if it really did take him 5,000 prototypes to make, for all intents and purposes, a pretty straightforward product. I think a lot of DYSON'S products remind me of BOSE. Lots of marketing hype and premium prices.

my confusion is why didn't they just make a motorcycle helmet which cools the driver with a fan, has decent quality headphones and somewhat filters the breathing air? That way the pricepoint for the materials makes more sense and there's an actual target audience. Also that would help with the weight issue as a helmet will already be heavy. AND it could actually have a seal.

Even if you wear these headphones whilst sleeping (which given their huge size and weight, seems an impossibility), there's nowhere near enough pressure nor sealing to keep your airways open.

I dont know though, because if it purifies 90% of the air, sure its not up to dr. Mikes disease control standard, but even that 90% reduction could provide alot more comfort to someone being uncomfortable from the pollen.......but i dont even have hayfever, im talking out of my butt

[@SomeoneBeginingWithI]

@@gympatron2856 It's blowing that filtered air at your nose and mouth, but there's no seal so when you breathe in you'll be breathing a mixture of filtered and unfiltered air. It would probably help a bit, but not as much as you'd want if you had bad hayfever. Wearing an N95 mask would be much more effective and avoid the problems of dry mucous membranes that Mike described. Wearing a simple cloth mask might be similarly effective and avoid the problems of dry mucous membranes. The headphones are also very expensive, and you can get boxes of N95 masks for less than £1 a mask. I think the only use for something like this would be if there was a way plug the airflow from the headphones into an n95 mask. That might improve comfort for people who feel claustrophobic wearing normal masks or find the very small increase in breathing effort uncomfortable.

I always thought it would be cool to have some self contained helmet type thing that managed your audio, air, could filter your voice, maybe some visual stuff but that's going overboard, built in camera, etc. Like a smart helmet basically. I could never imagine a version where it wasn't some giant bulky thing that looked ridiculous on your head, I'm glad to know Dyson didn't figure that out either.

[@ProYagu]

It seems like the original idea was just to make the personal air filtration system, but the headphones were a (somewhat) logical addition to make it dual use so that someone may consider justifying its use. Most people won't wear just an air filtration system, but maybe they'd use headphones that also had the benefit of including one. For the record, no one is going to buy this, but its an interesting innovation, I suppose.

[@SL4US]

The execution is lacking. Its like they couldnt fully commit to either idea so both are subpar

[@wge621]

"Most people won't wear just an air filtration system" I think they would in places like china. I could actually see it being popular there. but not tagged onto headphones. It's always hard to combine two completely different ideas into one, because inevitably one or both will be lacking for all users. E.g. a microwave that also does the laundry - maybe i love the microwave part but hate the laundry, it would be hard to get both pieces to adequately satisfy most customers. honestly it's pretty surprising they did this.
