The tested Dyson made last place (from 12 contestants) with mostly average results. It's the most expensive and least effective machine they tested. The biggest disadvantage is the sound level: it was so noisy that it was downgraded.
- wazoox 15y agoIt got the best note, not the last one. Unless the best possible note is 0... At least that's what I understand from the pages you're pointing to.
- jsnell 15y agoNo, it lost. Germans generally rate things with 1 being the best score, and higher numbers being worse.
- eru 15y agoSix (or very long ago five) is usually the worst number.
- janjan 15y agoThe grading system in Germany is quite complicated. We have one were 1 = "very good" (this is the classic system of Schulnoten which is used quite often) and one were 0 = "the worst".

- eru 15y agoAnd at the end of Highschool (Gymnasium) you have one that goes from 00 to 15. 15 being the best. It is strange.
