There are also plans to open doors to demo spaces in Pune and Ahmedabad, in the coming days.
The physical demo stores complement Dyson’s online business in India, where it has primarily been a direct business. While Dyson.in may be the point of purchase for consumers, the major focus is on the delivering a true Dyson experience, where the demo spaces play an important role.
Visitors can get hands on with the full range of Dyson technology at the Dyson Demo stores, and the demos vary per product category. For the floorcare machines, there are spaces designed with different floor types and debris (from cereal, to feathers to confetti) so that you can test our machines in a ‘real-life’ setting. For environmental care, visitors can test Dyson machines in smoke boxes, where they can visually see the air being purified by our machines. In Dyson Demo stores, there are beauty labs as well, where visitors can book stylist appointments to experience personal care technology first-hand.
