Hoovered up the competition, and swept them under the carpet.

Somebody on here posted that he loved the Dyson products because you could always buy spare parts! ( He was praising their reliability).

As far as I am concerned it is overpriced, and nothing special except the marketing.

Well he is always whining (see what I did there?) so I guess not.

Does he live in the UK, or is he a tax exile. He moved all his production abrod didn't he.
So not a lot a lot of employment for the UK.
Perhaps he's just good at creating profits not employment.

>> Does he live in the UK, or is he a tax exile.

In 2003, Dyson paid £15 million[citation needed] for Dodington Park,[68] a 300-acre (1.2 km2) Georgian estate in South Gloucestershire close to Chipping Sodbury. He and his wife own Domaine des Rabelles, near Tourtour, France, and a house in Chelsea, London. His vessel Nahlin is the largest British-flagged and owned super yacht with an LOA of 91 metres (299 ft), and was ranked 36th in a 2013 survey of the world's 100 biggest yachts.

In July 2019, Dyson spent £43 million on a 21,108 sq ft triplex flat at the top of the Guoco Tower, the tallest building in Singapore. Sir James has also invested heavily into buying agriculture lands across Lincolnshire, Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire.


>>He moved all
>> his production abrod didn't he.

Yes just after he lobbied heavily for leaving the EU, claiming it would make his UK exports easier.
