If you’ve been dying for a Dyson (but dying over the retail price…), be sure to hop on over to Woot today. They’ve got refurbished Dyson DC14s for just $185 shipped! There’s even two different colors. (Fancy!)
Note that these refurbs come with a 6-month warranty direct from Dyson, or you can purchase an extended warranty through Square Trade. Just something to consider if you’re feeling a little iffy about buying a reconditioned item.
Personally, I’m waiting for a deal on one of those bladeless Dyson fans. And I don’t even need one, it’s just that every time I see the commercial I wonder how it works. Heh.
the blade-less fan was on the last woot-off – i think
the bladeless fan works using Bernoulli’s law. Basically, it gets some air moving, which convinces the other air in the “circle thingy” to move right along with it. Pretty spiffy, but damn expensive for a fan 🙂 This product shows the principle – http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/product/1479
They did one a few weeks ago. And even on Woot it was +$100. I don’t want to know that much. But I did think about it for my kids, who still stick fingers in fans and then cry.
