I got this vacuum for Christmas and love it except for the trigger grip. I have arthritis and that position is painful. I keep trying to hold it a different way, but it doesn't work as well. This is a real pain. I can't believe they wouldn't design this with a permanent on option. Very poor design decision!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.We just use a cable strip. When pressing it automatically falls down and holds the trigger.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Well, that's a real deal-breaker for anyone like me with limited grip strength, or pain issues.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Give us some credit and take away the hand held trigger. We can turn it off from room to room. Its ruined my tennis elbow. Huge fan of these stick vacuums but also a deal breaker for me. Sorry to say I'll have to seek another brand.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No you cannot lock the trigger, that would make too much sense. And Dyson rather spend money on advertising, instead of making their vacuums better.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No continuous on feature...uncomfortable after long vacuuming...Otherwise great suction, long running between charges...come on guys, a trigger lock is not all that expensive!!!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thank you all for your input. I have purchased the vacuum and it is really a great vacuum. Because of my arthritic fingers I wish there was a locking mechanism but I will deal with it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Perhaps Dyson could come up with an after-market gadget that one can use to lock the trigger on. Their engineers have good design ideas and suck a mechanism would be an easy task for them. ARE YOU LISTENING, DYSON?
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No..that is good and bad but the product is awesome.
