Reader questions Dyson's calls to leave the EU Single Market
Dyson has a global manufacturing footprint with key facilities in Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines. While Dyson's headquarters are in Singapore, their manufacturing operations are primarily located in Southeast Asia, allowing them to be close to supply chains and international markets.
Dyson also has a presence in the UK, with their core creative and engineering campus in Malmesbury, Wiltshire. Dyson vacuum cleaners and washing machines were made in Malmesbury, Wiltshire, until 2002, when the company transferred vacuum cleaner production to Malaysia. There was some controversy over the reason for this move, as well as over plans to expand Dyson's factory to increase production.
Many thanks,

Dyson's bestselling Airwrap named the ‘best product ever' is £100 off for a limited time
Dyson has slashed £100 off its bestselling Airwrap for a limited time only, and shoppers have hailed it as a 'gamechanger' that makes styling hair so easy If you've been debating the idea of treating yourself to a Dyson Airwrap but have been put off by the almost £500 price tag, you're in luck. Dyson has slashed a rare £100 off for a limited time only. Normally priced at £479.99, the New Dyson Airwrap i.d.™ multi-styler and dryer with Diffuser in Vinca Blue/Topaz is now £379.99. Curly-haired girls will be pleased to see that the styler with the diffuser attachment is on offer. Styling your hair at home should feel like a relaxing, self-care moment, not an hour of stress and effort, and that's where the Airwrap comes in. Designed to create salon-worthy looks at home, this tool helps even those who are terrible at hair find the new Airwrap i.d. features a built-in Bluetooth and the My Dyson App, which essentially becomes your new hair stylist. You take a short quiz on the app explaining your hair type, and the Airwrap knows exactly what to do. It will adjust the timing, styling and even the cool shot for you. So you can switch off and end up with gorgeous, damage-free locks. The Airwrap has some glowing testimonials to back it up with shoppers calling it a 'game changer' and the best ever. One shopper wrote: "Wow, what an amazing product - I literally could not live without this air wrap. It's so easy to set up on the app and use and much lighter to hold that expected. I have little patience in styling my hair but this makes it so easy and within 5 mins I have a lovely bouncy blow dry or beach waves, my curls stay in for a couple of days. The flyaway attachment is unreal and gives me poker straight hair. " A second added: "The best product ever! My hair reborned since I started using it! Every woman should have it !". And a third praised: "Surprise birthday present - and it is such a game changer Hair drys in minutes and looks like it has been done professionally at a salon. I love it" It's worth noting, however, the Airwrap is not going to work wonders on every single hair type. One shopper criticised its inability to hold curls on dead straight hair. They wrote: "I do like it but the price for straight hair doesn't really stay on, but I love the look of curls but it won't last till 2h if it's really hot humid weather, specially if your hair dead straight." If you've not been tempted by the Airwrap, two of my current favourite hair tools include Drybar's Double Shot Blowdryer Brush. This is one of the only heated brushes that has given me sleek, bouncy hair that actually lasts, and is a damp-to-dry styler. Additionally, Remington's AIRvive™ 2-in-1 Air Styler is essentially a styling shortcut for smoother, sleeker hair without extreme heat damage.

Shark Stratos vacuum and mop bundle with £220 price cut hailed a 'game changer'
The Shark Stratos Cordless Bundle is has been reduced by more than 40% in a 'website exclusive' deal Shark has unveiled a massive price cut of more than £220 on a cordless vacuum and mop bundle. The Shark Stratos Cordless Bundle has been slashed from £519.98 to £297.99, a huge discount of £221.99. The 'website exclusive' deal represents a 42% saving and comes with Shark's Stratos Anti Hair Wrap Plus Pet Pro Cordless Vacuum and Klik n' Flip Automatic Steam Mop. When purchased separately, both products would cost £349.98 even with their respective price reductions. Shark claims that the Stratos Plus vacuum offers the brand's 'best ever hair pick-up' on both carpet or hard floors. This is aided by Shark's signature anti hair wrap plus technology, which removes hair from the brush-roll as it cleans. The feature makes it an ideal choice for pet owners, as this model also comes with a specially designed pet tool for removing embedded hair from furniture. The Stratos also features LED headlights and the 'Clean Sense IQ' function, which automatically adjusts its cleaning power when it detects hard-to-see dirt. Other notable features include a flexible wand for cleaning under furniture and a 60-minute runtime. Alongside the Stratos Plus vacuum, the deal also includes Shark's Klik n' Flip Automatic Steam Mop, which provides a steam-clean for hard floors including tile, hardwood, stone and marble, reports the Express. Shark claims its mop can clean and sanitise 99.9% of common household bacteria, with the Steam Blaster function blasting steam from the nozzle to tackle more stubborn marks. For those on a budget, Amazon's Avalsor Cordless Vacuum Cleaner can be reduced to £103.99 with a coupon on the product page, though it may not offer the same cleaning power as the Shark Stratos. Elsewhere, the Hoover HF4 Hydro Pet Cordless Vacuum Cleaner With Anti Hair Wrap (£219) provides both vacuuming and mopping capabilities in one device, thanks to its interchangeable brush and mop heads. However, for those loyal to Shark, the Stratos Cordless Bundle has earned a 4.4-star rating after over 2,100 reviews. One satisfied customer said: "Simply the best. We had a Dyson and I used it on carpet prior to using the Shark. To say I was embarrassed for the Dyson and myself is an understatement. The amount of stuff the Shark picked after being cleaned by the Dyson was unreal. The battery lasts to do the whole house easily. The Clean Sense setting is fantastic. I really like the built in air freshener pods." Another said: "Absolute game changer if you have a dog. Having a large black dog that sheds constantly it is so handy being able to grab this and suck up all the hair in seconds. It's so powerful and battery life is excellent. Only have to charge it every four or five days. It's so handy. Wish I got it years ago." A more mixed three-star review said: "Really good at everything but won't stand up of its own free will. If you need to stop cleaning to move furniture you need to lean it against something or fold it in half." The Klik n' Flip Automatic Steam Mop has also impressed Shark customers, with one five-star review saying: "A great addition to my cleaning tools. Heats up fast and does a great job on my kitchen floor. Would recommend to everyone who is fed up of a wet floor and a mop that needs cleaning."
