OUR 2ND ANNIVERSARY... (ALSO REVIEW OF DELPHIN S1 -PART 1)


Assalammua'alaikum family, friends, readers and followers of this blog. December
is flying past to welcome January it seems. The week went by with me struggling
to catch up..

Alhamdulillah, we turned 2 last week. We bought each other the best machine we
can get - the Dephin!



Pretty isn't it. The carbon fibre look was not why we bought it though. It was
its purpose, and versatility of function in this one compact machine.

We basically bumped into Delphin by accident. We simply dropped by a baby fair
at Expo before we head down to a Minion Party one day.. And someone just stopped
us and said, "You Singaporean?" Of which I was startled and said a stammering
yes. Then he signalled this lady to give us something.

Very drama huh? But it is for real!

"This is free for you, ma'am! One for every Singaporean who come by."

We were lost, really we were. As with every Singaporean we were just happy we
got something free for doing nothing. We have no idea what brand station we
walked into.

Then she said there will be a cleaning demo done for us - again for free! - at
our home, with an option to either clean our bed (mattress) or sofa set. Husband
said ok for any Sunday. And we quickly said ok for the next day demo.

We never gave thought about what it was until the next day waiting for the demo
to start. We discussed like what we would say if they pushed to sell, and what
signals to give if we wanna say no and everything they is to think of.

So 3pm came, and the doorbell rang. A man called Patrick Tan greeting me with a
weird name, I corrected him to just call me Jun, and our day became bright. He
was so friendly, happy and knowledgeable. He didn't jump straight at us with
something to sell. Instead he introduced himself properly, and then proceeded to
introduce us to the company. After we warmed up with his presence, he went to
work, and said, "So let me start my duty, to clean your mattress, I think we can
do your bed in the room."

And we led him in, cleared the bed. While he set up his machine, we chatted more
about stuff under the sun. We were ushered to sit in the room as he go through
the machine with us, and its feature.

I honestly thought, "ah.. another vacuum machine that is better than the other!"
For the next 10 minutes, it was just that.

Then it changed. I thought I was being the lady I am, jumping to buy what seemed
good, but I woke myself up, and looked at my husband. I could see he is also
impressed. We were basically very impressed with the fact that we left the fan
on at its highest speed, and not feel dusty like with other vacuums (first of
all, other vacuum demos would usually request us to off the fan during a demo).
Patrick saw us switching on the fan, he didn't stop us, instead he thank us as
he was feeling warm. It was on oscillation too! No dusty feeling, no stuffiness.
Instead I felt like the air seemed cleaner.

He proceeded to show us more. He used his machine at its lowest speed, and he
was almost whispering but we could all hear him loud and clear. This machine can
be silent, have lower suction power, but still works (it seems). Then he
switched it to higher power (it has this volume like dial that can go low power
to high power), and it was still not very loud - it was acceptable. I was
carrying a baby, and my baby didn't get startled. Neither did my 2-Tee squeak.
Amazing point 1.

Then he started showing us the suction power with a cloth filter, after a few
swipes, the suction is not as good as the first time. Proven, and agreed. We had
Brand X and it did just that! Only works on Day 1 like magic after that it was
noise and no work!

This machine doesn't have any additional filter - only its patented L-Lamella,
and water. No dust bag, no cloth filter - which equates to minimal maintenance
(and low to no cost of maintenance!). And he showed the same thing, swiping
double the times as he did previously, and showed us that the suction remained
as powerful as the first time because of that filter element.

Now this machine, can also be an air purifier! (Ah! No wonder I felt the air
cleaner!) He took out the vacuum cord from the suction hole, added Dettol and
you can sanitize the air as it purifies the air it sucks in, add in organic mint
and you get aroma therapy as it purifies the air. Amazing Point 2.

Just in time! We were just looking for an air purifier to welcome the next doze
of haze and the praying phase of the neighbor downstairs.

Then he switched the floor broom to a power broom, and said, "this is to clean
your mattress" He had already shown us the massive dust picked up on our bed
using the floor broom... I couldn't believe there's more to pick up.. He plug
them in, and placed in on our bed, and with that he said, "A normal vacuum.."
then he tilt the handle down... and said, "Now, a power broom!"

We were vibrating! That thing was beating my bed.. Like the old fashioned way of
mother/father caning the mattress to clean and sun our mattress!! And believe it
or not, he picked so much more stuff off our bed with that thing!! Amazing Point
3!!

After he was done with our bed, he said he would like to do the same for my
parents' bed seeing they are of old age.. And we agreed.

But he was getting tired, and so requested for a rest which of course we
obligated. We all need to sit down, cool off, rest and really, it is time to
decide what to do with this machine! I handed him a glass of ice water and we
were all sitting down to know more about this machine!

I was more interested to find out the cost of this machine so I can just quickly
find out if it is visible for us to own it. My husband was more into its
cleaning service contract. And so Patrick laid out the prices for us to see.
Pricey it was! Indeed, very pricey... But putting together an air purifier, an
awesome vacuum cleaner, and a dust mite exterminator... that would actually cost
more, no? So husband and I looked at each other, as much as we wanted to we
cannot afford this machine Patrick showed us.

And so we bluntly told him, we cannot afford so, and told him the max we are
willing to go. He sorted things out, and told us they have an older machine, and
it cost about half the price he showed us, and asked if we are okay. After much
hesitation, and weighing out everything we had to, we agreed, and he went out to
check on the availability and got us one machine delivered.

As we finished off all the paperwork, he proceeded to continue with my parents'
bed.The water was clear tap water when he start off.. It went really dark after
he was done. We were there watching, so he can't be cheating. And he advised us
to do our parents' bed every week for the first month before gradually decrease
the frequency.

Our machine arrived just as we were finishing with my parents' bed. And Patrick
went on to pull out every part of this machine we just owned. Every part of it
and where it goes and what it does (even after his intensive demo!).

He then told us to call him up for another round of demo with our own machine to
better understand our machine and its capabilities. We haven't arranged an
appointment but we have surely used our machine almost right after he left.

I love the machine so much because now we are both motivated to clean our house
together. My husband has been using and helping me clean our room 200% more
folds than ever before with this awesome thing!

Just last week, I used it again, to clear the dust on the ceiling. Believe it or
not, this little shorty didn't require any stools or steps to reach the
ceilings! AWESOME!

It was smooth and most importantly, it did what it was meant to do, which is to
CLEAN!

And here, I am about to share the amount of dirt we picked up just from our bed,
our room floor, the living room and the corridor to our parents' room.



I've never imagined so much dirt, even with previous vacuums, I never seen so
much although I felt the house was dustier after I was done vacuuming. With this
one, it picks up all dust ever imagined and leave our home with clean air. I am
serious!

And yes, the above picture was one my husband send in to me - and yes, my
husband cleans the house now...

This is one of the bestest anniversary gift we have gotten ourselves.

And oh! We went USS on our actual anniversary. Wanna read about it? I am
drafting them all up - it requires so much planning as we were out in USS for
almost 12 long hours!! It was so much fun!! And the photos are everywhere, so
bear a little while more okay?

For the after sales service review, do read it here.

2yrs on, a post review here.

Until next time,
Wassalam,
Jun

Hi Junaidah. I am looking into getting a Delphin S8. Wonder how has your Delphin
vacuum cleaner performed since you last posted here 2 years ago?

Hi Anonymous!

Alhamdulillah, my Delphin has been such a darling throughout the 2years she has
been with us. Even with the haze, and the constant vacuuming and using her as an
air purifier, she still works well with no hiccups. Very easy to maintain, and
very easy to use. We still love her like it was her first day with us. :)

We haven't had any regrets buying her. Hope it helps you make the decision. I am
still very convinced that it is money well worth.

Hi Jun,
I read all sort of Negative comments on Delphin, and only yours is the good one
.

I took their "Free" gift and within few day a Guy came from delphin to do a,Free
cleaning and demo.

He introduced himself as Jaya and the Sales Manager and he appeared well dressed
and very soft spoken.

He made his demo and convinced me and I say I need to check further and I start
to search. They were very bad review and I use against him. He was very careful
n said all comments are about the staff and poor service by staff .

He was right and then I read your review and he offered a good instalment
package.

I bought it and been using it daily .I like the aroma therapy . He gave me 2
bottles of the eclotus oil.

Jun, your blog give me the confident to own one. Thank U.

Hi Anonymous!

I am sure there is no regrets owning a Delphin right? My follow up also
mentioned about the bad reviews on the staffs that was pushing sales and the
poor service, however, the local sales person is usually very prompt, helpful
and know what the product is about.

Mine is still running strong, zero complaints so far. The best part is it is
very easy to self maintain and clean the machine!
