About 560mm tall and 400mm at the base.

I bought one the other day, it's not a bad unit. The storage of the hose
and pipes is not the best. Great long hose and cable. Seems to handle
picking up dirt/dust with no problem, just need clean the filter.

Many thanks - passed to SWMBO for approval (she has a Dyson).
The old constellation I have been using is starting to show its age.

I wouldn't use it as a domestic hoover, it is noisy, pipe are quite
plastic and the floor brush isn't ver brushy. I use it as a DIY hoover,
I pick up stuff that would kill a domsetic vacum. Also connects to tools
for dust extraction.

Yes - thats the idea. The last lot of brick rubble from chasing for cables
really did for the old hoover I was using. Wife won't let me use her dyson -
says the plaster dust clogs her filters.

Hi,

Anyone know what happens if the nozzle on a Dyson is nearly blocked
off, does the cyclone slow down or is there a 'bleed valve' of some
sort.

cheers,
Pete.

The tool connection, in particular the auto start/stop, is the best thing
about this vacuum.
