The Story Behind Dyson Vacuum Cleaners

Dyson vacuum cleaners have quite an interesting history. Their inventor, James Dyson, wanted to design a vacuum with constant suction that wouldn't lose power over time.

He was frustrated with his family's Hoover that lost suction the more he used it. Eventually, he thought of the idea of cyclonic separation to preserve the suction of a vacuum as it picked up dirt.

Dyson made his first model in the seventies but had trouble selling it to manufacturing companies. At first, he sold the vacuum through Japanese catalogs and then eventually set up his own manufacturing company.

The Dyson company began a successful campaign in the late eighties that promoted the vacuum's bagless feature. The advertising campaign caused Dyson sales to skyrocket and revolutionized the vacuum cleaner industry forever.
