Dyson is launching a new servicing scheme in the UK designed to restore ageing vacuum cleaners and help customers keep their machines running for longer. Called Dyson Total Restore, the new service will
launch on 14 October, with the UK becoming the first market in the world to receive it. Announced at the company’s Dyson Unveiled event in Berlin, the scheme was described as a “spa day for your vacuum” and will see machines undergo an extensive 70-point health check by Dyson engineers.
Dyson launches ‘MOT’ service to give old vacuums a new lease of life The service will include tests of areas such as airflow
and battery performance, with engineers replacing components that are affecting the performance of the machine using genuine Dyson parts. Rollers within the motorised cleaner head and filters
are among the components that can be replaced, before the vacuum undergoes a comprehensive deep clean.
Dyson said the aim is to return machines with performance restored to a level comparable with when they were new.

AMDEA welcomes
‘wet’ appliance water labelling decision
The Government has confirmed that
washing machines, dishwashers and other ‘wet’ appliances will be removed from the scope of its proposed Mandatory Water Efficiency Labelling Scheme (MWELS). The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) announced the revised approach on 2 October, following industry concerns over the proposed scheme. Under the changes, energy-related products
will no longer be included in MWELS, subject to final policy clearances.
This means household washing machines,
washer-dryers, dishwashers and electric showers will not be required to carry the new mandatory water efficiency label.
Instead, the scheme will focus on plumbing
products, including toilets, kitchen and basin taps, non-electric showers and urinals. The revised approach will also see the scheme applied consistently across all four UK nations, addressing concerns around differing requirements across the country. The Association of Manufacturers of Domestic Appliances (AMDEA) has welcomed the decision after campaigning against the inclusion of wet appliances.
AMDEA argued that washing machines,
washer-dryers and dishwashers already provide consumers with regulated information on water consumption through their existing energy labels, and that
introducing an additional mandatory label risked duplication and consumer confusion.
