A true 5 star product. This was such a simple fix for what was a potentially very expensive repair. I followed the instructions on a u tube video and the new motor was installed within 15 mins. Be aware that the screws holding the machine together and the motor in place have torx heads (two different sizes) so you will need appropriate drivers or bits. The motor looks identical to the original and works just as well; how long it lasts remains to be seen but I can see no reason why it will not last as long as the original.

To begin I was somewhat disappointed, there was a distinct smell emanating from my Dyson and the motor seemed to be running quite hot judging by the exhaust temperature. But then I remembered that on the video I watched describing how to fit the motor mention was made of the after motor filter. I checked this and sure enough it was filthy so a replacement was ordered and fitted and now the motor performs superbly; suction is excellent (certainly as good as the original) and both the smell and overheating have disappeared. An excellent product at a reasonable price and easy to fit, just find the right utube video. Sadly since writing the above review the motor has gone kaput. Whilst I am in no way an electrical expert I do know when a motor is in danger of burning itself out. The stench is quite horrible!!Read full review

this was not bought for a vacuum cleaner. It is now happily installed into a dog blaster. We are a small dog grooming business, and a blaster is used to dry the dogs after bathing, rather like a powerful hair dryer. The motor looks similar to the one that had just died on me, so It was purchased, arrived quickly and with slight modification fitted perfectly. It may even be slightly more powerful and quieter than the original. So for a bit of research and effort we are back in business for £15 instead of £200 for a complete dryer. I am thinking of getting another for reserve...

Looking online for a replacement motor for my Dyson DC08, that suddenly stopped, showed prices could be high. This motor was very reasonable price wise. It was slightly different size wise, and was a very tight fit, but it did, and has worked fine ever since. Utube was a great help with dismantling the machine. Haven't decided yet whether the suck is less, but with the new rotating head purchased recently before the motor stopped, it still seems to suck up the bits OK. Four stars due to not knowing how long lasting it will be.

This new motor has made all the difference to the rather tired suction that the original motor was providing! Simple to install and a great price when compared to what a replacement vac would have cost!
