Only because treehugging EU morons try to stop them.
Just think about it for a minute, they're actually trying to cut the amount of power used by something which you have running for about 0.001% of the day. It's as stupid as hosepipe bans, when we all know that 95% of water is consumed by industry, not domestic supplies.
I prefer my hoover to actually do it's job, not take twice as long using half the power, which er.... comes to the same amount of energy! Doh!
For once you're right. I got an EU legal 700w Dyson for reasons that had nothing to do with the EU. It's not a patch on the high power Dysons performance wise. Having less suck also means it's prone to block. And yes, it takes longer than a 1400w Dyson.

What were the reasons? And why have you withheld them?
The other mistake you made is buying a Dyson. They're British made, which means they fall apart regularly, just like Rovers and Jaguars. I actually have 5 Dysons - people give them away regularly on freecycle with one part broken. Thus I can swap the parts around and get a working one (for about 6 months, then I need to swap more dodgy piece of s*it parts). Strangely, there is one British firm which makes things that last - Vax. I have one that's 30 years old and still working perfectly. I'm getting tired of constantly repairing the Dysons and may burn them in an effigy of their twisted in the head designer.
And on the subject of blocking, that's because Dysons are stupidly designed, with daft triangular shaped tubes with sharp right angle bends where lint and stuff gets clogged up. They even admit they're prone to clogging, having so many access points to clear the clogs, with diagrams on the label on the machine - which you need a f****ng screwdriver to open!
How do you account for Numatic, then? (Henry, George...)
(piggy-backing here, as I don't see his posts unless someone responds to them)
I believe that Dysons are no longer British-made... Although - I still have a British-made DC-02, bought about 21 years ago, and it's still working well. I have replaced the belt once or twice.
Probably made in Japan.
So your killfile doesn't work properly then.
Maybe they learned their lesson when 50% of them got sent back under warranty....
Oh dear. A vacuum is a simple device that shouldn't break twice in 20 years.
Hang on, BELT?! Your vacuum is held together with a rubber band?!

Gee, you've got to read the small print, don't you??
That ad for a pizza quotes "Each (ovenbaked) 1/2 pizza contains" and cites assorted Energy/Fats/Saturates/Sugars/Salt ratings.
Note "1/2 pizza", relying on us sharing it with our nearest and dearest!!
Here in Australia, you can pick up these pre-cooked pizza from your local Supermarkets, but they can taste a bit bland/cardboardy. Or you can pick-up/Home delivered from your favourite local Pizzeria. Or you buy the makings and prepare your own ... even buying your very own Pizza Oven ... if you're that determined!!
No wonder you don't have a job. The cooking instructions in your link are to oven cook from frozen. None are given for a microwave. You are utterly brainless.
No, an utterly brainless person would think "I can't microwave that". The pizza is ALREADY COOKED. All I do is warm it up to the desired eating temperature.
Only an utterly brainless person who has never cooked pizza before would say that.
How old are? Can you read cooking instructions?
Why do you continue to remove the newsgroups from the crosspost? Is this your first time on the internet? What do you think will happen when you post that comment? Think of the people who are in one of the groups other than alt.home.repair. They won't see it. You're wasting your time. You're splitting the conversation into several sections and making a thorough mess. Go read "Dummies Guide to the Internet".
What part of "ALREADY COOKED" didn't you understand?
The link you gave does not say already cooked. Are you illiterate?
You're the troll here. I can see I crosspost to 4 groups.
You must be new here or a troll if you are unaware excessive crossposting is against netiquette. I suspect you are too illiterate to read any book for dummies.
I've got one in front of me, it's cooked.
It would seem you are. The first line, the nutrition part, says "Each (ovenbaked) 1/2 pizza contains". Look at the word in brackets. OVENBAKED. That means it's ALREADY BAKED.
If crossposting was wrong it wouldn't be available dumbass.
It actually means that that's the nutritional breakdown AFTER it has been oven baked by the purchaser.
Well I eat them a few times a week, and they're certainly cooked after microwaving. Anything can go in a microwave, don't believe the s*it on the label.
