Do You Think That James Dyson Can Repeat the International Vacuum Cleaner Success with the Hand Dryer Market with Its Dyson Airblade? Why? Why Not?
Do you think that James Dyson can repeat the international vacuum cleaner success with the hand dryer market with its Dyson Airblade? Why? Why not?
It is highly unlikely that James Dyson will repeat the international vacuum cleaner success with the Dyson Airblade hand-dryer. The main reason is that a vacuum cleaner is a domestic product and the majority of households cater for one. The Dyson Airblade is a device found mainly in public washrooms. It would be too expensive for a household to install a Dyson Airblade as cheaper means exist. However there are approximately 19.5 million toilets outside private homes and therefore we feel that the Airblade can still be hugely successful and gain a substantial share of the market. The main customers for the Airblade are hotels, restaurants, big enterprises, institutions and airports. When Dyson’s vacuum cleaner was introduced to the market there was no other bag less vacuum cleaners. It was a unique product with a huge demand. However with the introduction of the Airblade, it has had to with stand more sterner competition with products very similar already in the market. I will discuss why I feel James Dyson cannot repeat the same international vacuum success with the Airblade; however I will note the reasons why I believe the Airblade can still prove a success. The Dyson Vacuum cleaner was introduced into the market at a time when vacuum cleaners performed poorly and users were frequently frustrated with poor suction. Dyson came up with the solution and developed the Root 8 Cyclone, which removes more dust by using eight cyclones. His vacuum cleaner could separate dust by cyclonic action and spin it out of the airstream which eliminated the need for both bag and filter. There was a huge market for this new invention worldwide. His breakthrough into the UK market came in an advertising campaign when he stated that, unlike most of his rivals, his new vacuum cleaner did not require the continuing purchase of

    The birth of my hatred for vacuuming began at the young age of eleven when I was permanently assigned the chore of vacuuming my home three times per week. My hatred ran so deep that it lasted eighteen long years until I received the best Christmas present of all time- the Roomba. The Roomba is a robotic vacuum that was released in 2002. It thoroughly and effortlessly cleans all the floors in your home with the push of a button. It was designed for people like myself, who would rather do any chore other than vacuum. In Don Norman’s book, The Design of Everyday Things, he says the greatest things are designed when their creators are “focusing on the true needs of the people who use the product.” (Norman, 2013, p. 263) It is so apparent that the…

    * The Japanese are more receptive to new technology and are more willing to try gadgets, as evidenced by the innovation and adoption of many unconventional items all over Japan. The washlet was probably viewed as a fashionable trend in Japan, with people adopting it to be “trendy”. The Washlet is something very different from what Americans are used to and it is very difficult to get consumers to change their consumption habits. The Washlet required the user to stay for a longer period of time in the restroom because of the 3-5 minute drying time. From what I have observed, it is doubtful that Americans are willing to spend an additional 3-5 minutes on the toilet, especially in a culture where everybody is constantly on the move. Advertising with a billboard in Times Square was a big mistake as New York is the epitome of the “rush” that is associated with big cities.…
