I purchased a big ball obsolute through dyson Australia and in the first day the cord would not recoil. I telephoned and they said I would have to pack it in a box and send it to tarren point Sydney. I live two hours away, at no time did they say I woukd have to get my machine fixed at Castle Hill or Tarren Point. I had a vaccum from bunning… Read more
prior, after 12 months the switch went and they gave me a new one. Do yourself a favour buy one from bunnings!
Do yourself a favour and don't buy a Dyson. The Dyson stick vacuum cleaner is only for a small clean up and not the whole house. If you want to vacuum the house allow the weekend to do so because the charge time is significant. I will be going back to a corded non Dyson vacuum. Show details
I have two Dyson vacuums for cleaning. I am in Brisbane Qld. For the service and parts, I was a Coopers Plains service and purchase customer. The assistance there was as good as it gets, informative, extremely helpful and very reasonable pricing. I was referred by other customers and I too referred a lot of business that way. This unfortunately… Read more
is where their service ends Last week I visited the Mt Omnaney store. I requested a service and new filters, the assistant was very casual and seemed to have no interest, certainly different to what I had been used to. He looked at another assistant three metres away and asked the lady if it was under warranty, I said no it wasn't, and he appeared to be satisfied with that. I was informed quickly that the cost would be $248, which, in my opinion, was quite expensive for a unit that was a little over two years old; however, I agreed to go ahead. We while there looked at some other products, I thought at the time it would have been nice for someone to ask if they could help, as occurred in the Coopers Plains store, we were the only customers there at the time, and this did not occur. We came back in around fifteen minutes, paid and left. We will not be returning there. Additionally, I had a friend who wanted a vacuum, needless to say he chose a different product. As for Dyson products we have, they are certainly very good it's a shame the same standard of service at Coopers Plains for us was not passed on.

UPDATE: Dyson kindly replaced the power cord. Thank you DYSON SUPERSONIC HAIRDRYER. Just after warranty period, machine cuts off after around 20-30 seconds. ‼️ ATTENTION: . My problem seems to be a common issue and we need Dyson admit it’s a Fault of theirs - I think we all need to pursue this. They want to charge their standard $199 service… Read more

• Your issue (dryer shutting off + flashing lights) fits the fault‐pattern many users report (especially the “cuts out just outside warranty” scenario). • The fact that there is a known pattern of filter/airflow issues suggests your case could be legitimate rather than an isolated “bad luck” incident. • Because there’s no large‐scale recall or admitted systemic defect, Dyson may frame it as “after warranty, you pay for servicing” — which is what their response you received indicates. • From a consumer rights/expectation perspective in Australia, you might argue that a premium product should last more than just 3 years (if the product is marketed & priced as premium). The user-patterns lend support to that expectation.
Very happy with my purchase of the upright animal ball vaccum, suction was fantastic, have 2 bulldogs always shedding hair could not believe how well it cleaned the carpets, cannot find fault highly recommended Show details · 1
Low Quality and terrible customer care – Terrible customer service! I bought a Dyson purifier six months ago, and out of nowhere, it just stopped working. When I reached out to customer support, they first made me wait while they “validated the warranty.” After that, they told me to find a box for the purifier and print a return label. Seriously, where am I supposed to find a box that… Read more
fits the purifier? And who even owns a printer these days? Come on, Dyson—take some notes from Amazon on how to handle customers. Now I’m probably looking at waiting two months just to get it back. The products might look nice, but they’re low quality, and the customer service is even worse. Don’t waste your money!
Don't buy a Dyson! – My first error was walking into the shop to buy a Dyson vacuum cleaner V10 thinking I was purchasing a top shelf vacuum cleaner. I bought this machine in June 2023. All went well until August 2023 when machine started to stop and go intermittently. I contacted Dyson and they sent me out a new motor (Big Body Big Cyclone assembly) All went well for… Read more
a while until the same issue arose again. I lived with it's issues until the stoppage/start issues got more frequent. I contacted Dyson via their Facebook Messenger site. I sent them videos of the vac doing the stop/ start problem. You get a stock reply first of all via a bot and then I think a real human gets involved. After more communications regarding this matter they made the decision to send me another new motor assembly. I thought that may not fix the problem seeing that we already had been sent a replacement motor but whatever, maybe they had a string of faulty motors. I duly received the new motor. Low and behold it started to do the same stop/ start. Wow now I was really starting to get annoyed. There'd been 3 motors in the machine and problem was still not fixed. Again I contacted my bot/person on Dyson Messenger, sent more videos and after a time they advised that they require the unit to be sent to their Sydney Service centre which I packaged up and sent off. It was returned. The delivery note said 'main body found faulty, replaced, tested OK' This was January '24 so I thought after more than 6 months this issue had been resolved. Well my joy didn't last long as the machine did the same issue again, stopping and starting intermittently. Gee I thought , may the issues not with the motor, maybe its something else seeing that including the original purchase there has now been 4 motors. I again contacted 'ol mate on Facebook messenger and after their initial reaction of 'that's strange' there was much toing and froing and me demanding a replacement unit they came up with the great that I send it back to the Service Centre in Sydney for a free assessment! I complained that it had just returned form the same place, why on earth would you send it back again, just give me a replacement unit and you can have the faulty one back and they can get to the bottom of the issue and fix it. Oh no that was too hard and they rattled off something about they reserve the right to have it assessed (hiding behind their warranty obligations) before matter can go forward. I told them that the unit had already been assessed, motor replaced and fixed. This went no where so I contacted their 'chat' line on their website only to be cut off as I was trying to post some videos of the machine to them. Absolutely hopeless. I got an email address (Customer Care) and voiced my frustration and went over the history of this machine but blow me down they came back with the same scenario that the machine should be sent back to Sydney for an assessment! So basically I've had the machine 9 months, it's had 4 motors (including the original one on purchase) and has been sent to Sydney for repair as well. They now want me to send it back to Sydney again. Their customer service is absolutely terrible, product is overpriced and dodgy and I'll never buy another one of their products again.

Do not buy direct from Dyson – I’m suffering from severe hayfever allergy and have purchase a hot cold air purifier (HP00). On my 3 rd machine now , with the first 2 machine being faulty right out of the box . It’s the worst experience ever dealing with Dyson customer service team and mind you don’t believe what the staff at Dyson Service Centre at Camberwell tells you . They… Read more
will promise you alot of great things just so you’ll leave the store but when the machine is sent back to their service warehouse - it’s a total different experience .
Quality has definitely deteriorated over the years compared to older models …. PLS buy via retailers like Harvey Norman , Myer etc otherwise it would be an absolute nightmare to deal with Dyson staff and they aren’t helpful at all . All they are doing is exchanging different machines ( which are all faulty ) out of the box . It’s been 2.5 months since I got my 3rd machine , wasted so much time dropping the machine , getting it swapped over and waiting for updates . Absolute joke !!! A purifier from Kmart or bigW might have save you from all the hassle not to say this is a very expensive machine
The purifier is great at filtering the air if you don’t mind ridiculously loud noises whenever it oscillates and when it’s not oscillating a high frequency hissing noise are constantly at the background which so hurt the ear .

We've had several Dyson vacs over the years. The battery died in the old V7, as expected, so we bought a new battery but were unable to change it because the plastic screws could not be moved. We bought a new V7. The quality has dropped since before. It came without all the attachments. We thought we could use the attachments from the old one,… Read more
but they don't fit. It feels flimsier than the old one and is heavier and more difficult to use.
Delivery was relatively slow. The company was sending after-marketing material before the device arrived.
I was not able to look at reviews on the Dyson site.

It’s so hot and it’s stuck on hot! The app no longer supports this model and the remote is missing. For its cost I expect the app to support this model . Pathetic Dyson!

I bought a V8 thinking that I could clean my home using it. But Dyson don’t say that for deep cleaning (cleaning carpets and floors) the battery only runs for 7 minutes!!!!! And takes up to 5 hours to re-charge. So you can only use it on low mode, which does not clean properly. So it is useless for cleaning homes. Also, the supervisor I talked was… Read more
extremely arrongant, said nothing could be done, no matter what I tried. Never again in my life I will buy dyson products. My product is rarely used. Brand new. And batery lasts only for 7 minutes. Please see the new filter on my device that does not work.

Disappointing experience after contacting Dyson customer service regarding a safety issue that could lead to fire. The Pure Hot+Cool HP04 was on heat function next to my son's bed. His pillow dropped over the bed and was leaning against the fan for a short amount of time. During this time the plastic surrounds of the fan melted. Thankfully we… Read more
smelt the burning plastic before a fire started. For a $799 fan I would not expect this serious safety issue. Dyson customer service viewed the fan whilst on the call. They said as the fan was out of warranty I would need to pay $199 to have it looked at with no guarantee it could be repaired. For such a serious issue I would have thought they would want to assess the product and ensure it wasn't a wider fault rather than ask for money!

My partner raised a concern with me that the Dyson V24 head stopped working on several occasions. As it was in my name i called up amd put her as a contact.

cylinder unit in case there was an issue with power. I received several emails from Dyson that afternoon that the orders were placed. The next day to our astonishment I was notifies the order would arrive that day. The parts have been replaced and we are back to cleaning again. My wife asked me to post a review cause she is over the moon with both customer service as well as the speed to deliver the parts. Been a Dyson user for over 8 years with several upgrades and very pleased. Thank you.

We purchased the Gen5 Complete from Dyson after testing them at some local retailers. We purchased this device solely because we had saved and had just had our solid hardware floors repolished. We did not want to damage the new surface, so did some investigations and bought this as it was sold for 'hard' floors. Upon using the device a few… Read more
times, we noticed some scratches in the floor. We were upset but did not know where they were from. Then one evening, I was vacuuming and the green light was illuminating the floor. I witnessed the vacuum putting deep and horrible scratches in the floor. I was devastated.
We contacted Dyson and sent through all of the images and even a video I managed to get of it happening again. We checked the bottom of the vacuum and it looked fine.
Dyson was very slow in their communication. They sent us a new head and despite this, knew it must be a design flaw when it occurred again. They asked for the whole vacuum to be sent back. This was frustrating as we no longer could clean our carpet areas. The vacuum was checked (despite only being new) and nothing was found. They sent it back - missing parts. As such, we could still not vacuum. Weeks passed and they went to blame us for the part not being there. Thankfully, I had taken photos of the box packed ready for return and it showed it was there. Eventually, they sent us a new part.
The company stated that a small item must have gotten lodged and scratched the floor. Our floors are never that dirty to have large items on them. Secondly, we would have picked anything up that was larger prior to vacuuming! Despite this, they wiped their hands of all liability.
After 18 months of complaints (again, we just had our floors repolished) we were not willing to give up. They asked us to get quotes to fix this problem. We live in a small country town, so getting tradespeople here was a nightmare and took weeks of organising, taking time off work to be home etc. We sent the quotes back and received a simple NO! I asked why they would request quotes if they were not even going to consider them.
WE NEVER ONCE asked for our floors to be totally repolished. We just wanted the areas impacted to be fixed or at least the money to buy a mat to cover them!
They said no again. NOWHERE in their brochure does it list this as a possibility. That you should inch by inch inspect your floor before vacuuming for micro items! A simply crazy notion. In addition, this vacuum was their new, top of the line model!
Since we did not want the rest of the floor damaged, we chose to return the device. All we ever wanted was to fix the damage caused by Dyson's device. If there was any information in their brochure saying this was even a possibility, we would never have purchased.
We were left with over 18months of poor communication, going weeks with no reply, to disrespectful and unprofessional assistance. They also wanted to 'talk' on the phone once we said we were lodging an official complaint. They did not like being asked to record all communication via email! I will never promote this company and tell everyone we can about their poor product, but more so their terrible customer service
We never once wanted more than help to resolve the issue. We were patient and polite. Unfortunately, Dyson no longer takes their products and customer service seriously.
Extremely misleading. Do not purchase. Ordered item 30/06 didnt receive the tracking had to request many many many times. Given tracking nu.ber that doesn't register.

advising that DYSON have not handed my item to the transport. It's just sitting in dyson warehouse. I tell them I want my money back go get the vacuum from your warehouse because clearly I don't have it. Told it's a request that needs to be made. I tell them I want the transcripts of our conversation I want email of my requests and I want an sms of what I'm requesting. Sent sms from dyson to say I'm requesting a refund and they seriously have taken money for not providing an item. I have had to get accc involved this is misleading to consumers lying about delivery when items not sent because they have no item to supply this is against Australian consumer law!!

We purchased a brand new Dyson Gen5detect cordless which we found to be absolutely superb. We needed a free standing Grab & Go Dock. This was marked out of stock. I signed up for 'notify me', which would email me when back in stock. A week… Read more
later I received an email - back in stock. I contacted Dyson via the Chat on their web site and eventually contacted a real person who confirmed it was available, I placed the order with him, paid for it. I received email confirmation and a DHL link.
A few days later I received another email to say the item was not in stock! No matter how many times I contact their customer service they do not see any problem with this. If I'd been told it was not in stock I would not have ordered it. I suspect the stock went to a Tier 1 customer such as Harvey Norman. Now Dyson are ignoring me and my order is in limbo.
Follow-up · since my original post, i have had two emails form the 'Notify Me' program advising the item is in stock. Each telephone or message enquiry always responds with a 'Not in Stock' reply.

I have a Dyson Cordless Hair straightner, paid over $600 for it. Great while it lasted, not much over 2 years on. Does not charge anymore and only solution they gave is to send it back and $200 to have new battery put in!!!!!!!!!!! I now have a $600 paperweight! As if I'm going to put another $200 into something I already paid $600 for, I have taken it to office of fair trade.

attachment, which I replace with a slimline one, but unfortunately it didn't come with the clip to clip it back to the hoover so spent over 4 years dangling it off furniture, and I swore I wouldn't do that again, but.....yep my husband purchased me the possuble exact same thing after it was recommended by the salesperson In Harvey Norman, I swear a man invented this thing, without ever using it himself, where do I start? Floor attachment sounds awful and hasn't performed to the standards I would of expected, as it's only hoovering a few mats, yep, you guessed it, I bought a flat hoover foot yet again *why*!!!!! To now have to dangle the bloody hoover over door handles, chair ends, or let it stay on the bloody floor!! The clip holding the dirt in the vacuum does not work affectively, if i forget and dismount it to empty it, yep, I need a hoover to hoover the hoover up as the clip does not work properly. The hose is so stiff, it does not want to bend through furniture, like the old styles used to do, bearing in mind my original lasted over 10 years, this is my 3rd Australian dyson in 14 years so far, It sounds like a cement mixture after picking up the tiniest thing, which is super loud and annoying *much like me i suppose* I don't stand back and marvel at the technology of this thing, I think it's a load of cr#p!! The big barrel is st^pid, seriously what is the point of it being a wide boy dyson? What exactly is its purpose other than to irritate the user? The paddles for turning it off and winding the cord in??? What the hell was someone thinking???? For the life of me, I have no explanation, other than to make users users their fingers to play with st^pidly small st^pid paddles. Ok rant over, I hate my dyson, I spent over 3 months looking at the pretty box, dubious about whether I was going to use it, sort of had no choice as it was a present, I resent the poor quality and usability of this product, please do see proof of purchase, I would like someone to save my sanity and actually suggest a product that is fit for purpose, oh and the attachments are irritatingly super hard to unclip to use too. Thanks for reading, now, could someone do something to help? At all? I need a hoover that actually works without needing extra bits, or no usage. Many thanks. Rachel Update, apparantly it's normal to drop it's load of dust all over when trying to extract it to empty it, it's normal to spend twice as long to pick the exact amount of cr#p up over and over unsuccessfully, I absolutely HATE my dyson! I want a refund!!!!!!

with Dyson (twice), and being told it was in "transit", and the product was sent from Sydney (356 km away) to a depot in Dubbo (592 km away), where it has been sitting and has still not been delivered 21 days after I placed my order.
I requested an immediate refund and was told they would have to retrieve the product before they could process the refund (NOT my problem), and it would take 10 days for the refund to be processed! No other company I have ordered from this month seems to have these problems.
Dyson's marketing is extremely well managed, but the endless negative reviews tell the real story.
