I love the commercial for the Dyson Ball where he compares it to a vacuum with solid axles and claims his vacuum turns better. The problem is....I've never seen a vacuum in my life with each wheel joined to a solid axle. Every vacuum I've ever seen has four wheels that move independently, rendering his whole argument for his overpriced contraption moot.
He didn't even come up with the idea of "spinning dust out of the air". He saw a vacuum system at a sawmill that did this and just copied and miniaturized it. Now, I think there is some merit in a bagless vacuum, but most of his ideas since have been solving problems that don't really exist.
