Learn About The Dyson DC24 Vacuum Cleaner

Learn About The Dyson DC24 Vacuum Cleaner

By Ray Hauser


James Dyson founded the Dyson Company in 1993. The British company primarily makes vacuum cleaners. Dyson developed the innovative, cyclonic vacuum cleaner which doesn't need catch bags. Dust and dirt are sucked up and dumped into a clear, detachable bin. This bin is removed and emptied by pressing a button. It snaps easily back into place.

The Dyson DC24 is one of the best vacuum cleaners ever developed and marketed. This compact machine comes in two variations, the multi floor version for use on all floor types and the Animal version for people with pets.

The DC24 is priced in the $300 to $400 range. It relies on Dyson's revolutionary "Root Cyclone" and steering ball technologies. Conventional vacuum cleaners work by drawing air through little holes and depositing captured debris in replaceable bags. These holes get plugged up after a lot of use which sharply reduces the machine's suction power and cleaning ability.

The cutting-edge root cyclone system uses cyclonic separation to completely do away with this problem. Air rushes into the cyclone chamber where it spins at high speed. Dirt and dust are thrown out of the air and captured by a plastic catch bin. Catch bags aren't needed and there is no loss of suction or cleaning ability regardless of how much the machine is used. The unit has a power of 115 air watts.

Steering ball technology has also been incorporated into the DC24. This unique invention makes steering around anything simple and effective. Conventional vacuum cleaners have fixed wheels which are great for moving back and forth, but they don't work so well when maneuvering in tight spots or around objects.

The steering ball obviates these navigational difficulties by using a ball which can rotate around itself in any direction. This ball makes it possible for the DC24 to sharply turn and operate in areas that are normally difficult to vacuum. The ball also contains the machine's electric motor which lowers the unit's center of gravity making the DC24 even more flexible and maneuverable.

The DC24 uses a brush bar covered with nylon bristles for extra cleaning power. This bar spins at ninety times per second which can loosen and suck up even the most ground-in dirt. The brush bar can be deactivated when vacuuming hard floors or delicate rugs.

The DC24 has a high efficiency air filter (HEPA) to screen out tiny particles of dust and allergens including mold spores and pollen. This vacuum is so effective at removing allergens it has been certified by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. The filter can be removed and washed when it gets dirty.

A reversible wand is included with the DC24 for cleaning hard to reach places like stairs and ceiling corners. Other attachments come with the machine making it possible to clean almost anything. The DC24 Animal version comes with a special attachment, the mini turbine head tool for cleaning pet hair from tough to reach spots like furniture.

Dirt and debris fall out into a 0.19 gallon, detachable catch container which can be removed with the push of a button. The bin snaps quickly back into place after emptying. No replacement bags are needed which saves a great deal of money over time.

The DC24 only weighs 11.65 pounds and it has a collapsible handle for quick and convenient storage in the tightest of spots. This vacuum cleaner was put through a series of demanding quality tests and is so well designed that Dyson offers a five year warranty on all parts and labor. (The DC24 will eventually be replaced by the new DC50.)
