@monkbent have you not tried the tug-along mini-cylinders? Looks exactly like our home model to me…design-speaking, mechanism aside.
I'm a Dyson devotee…and I don't think that looks like a Dyson. Also, rich seeing supposed patent-haters aligning w) VERY litigious company.

@judsontwit ah, perhaps - I love the roller balls -
@monkbent those roller balls strike me as the AT-ST of vacuum cleaners. Wheels are so much more stable. :) - End of conversation

@monkbent The drive mechanism is what’s in question. Looks ripped-off to me, but I don’t follow the vacuum market. :) -
@treestman perhaps. I also think people are highly selective in their patent outrage -
@monkbent I think the critique has less to do with patents than ripping off, patented or not. -
@treestman I suppose so. -
@monkbent I mean, if not patented you’re free to use, but that doesn’t explain claiming the idea as one’s own.
