It was my garage Dyson 05 that had lost all its suck. I was ready to chuck it yesterday but I took it apart and cleaned every part. Iāll go and test it later to see if itās any better now.
Update: Took the Dyson apart this afternoonā¦itās funked. The flexible concertina hose has a split, (no not that sort @CB-Saint ) and is the reason for the poor performance.
I could probably get a spare part but to keep the local economy ticking over Iāll have a look in the nearby Tech shop that sells used vacuums.
I did remember I had a Karcher compact vacuum in the loft. I retrieved it and tried it out. It came as a free gift with a Karcher Jet Washer with very good reason. It sounds like a chainsaw and blows out more dust than it takes in.
