  • It’s popular to hate on Dyson but cordless, bagless vacuum is very much a game dominated by them. Others - Samsung, Miele - have great products but I have yet to see a model from them that is truly superior to flagship Dysons. They dominate on suction and battery power.

    Dyson is expensive (overpriced?). The owners is an oligarch brexiteer asshole. The brand is perpetually trending with annoying influencers and I find their vacuums ugly, but … they build very good vacuums.

    Yes. I own a Dyson. A corded one. We’re on our third one and keep buying them because we have never had any issues with them.

    My current one is 4 years old. The one before was 10 by the time we sold it due to international move. The one before we bought 10 years old used before deciding we wanted a new one.

    You’re just reiterating my points. Yes they are better. And for people without a choice living in car dependent he’ll holes - an improvement.

    But the fact that you live in a car dependent he’ll hole is another failure of our society - and prevents you from using much better options.

    We should be addressing the root cause. Not the symptom.

    In functional societies, EVs are a small improvement. The noise and carcinogen pollution, land use impact and simple danger to soft street users are key damages ALL cars make to spaces occupied by people.

    Finally - I am tired of “we need cars for those with impairments / to reliever things / other bullshit.” We do not. It’s just the completely broken car-dependent American perspective.
