===Battery lifespan reduction===
{{Main|Dyson intentionally reduces battery lifespan and makes them difficult to repair}}
'''[[Dyson]]''' battery packs include a '''Battery Management System (BMS)''' equipped with a chip capable of balancing the individual cells. However, the manufacturer has chosen to omit a few inexpensive but essential resistors, preventing the balancing function from working as intended. As a result, the battery pack degrades much faster than it should.

===Circuit boards covered in glue===
{{Main|Dyson covers circuit board in glue which prevents repairs}}
'''[[Dyson]]''' started applying a thick layer of glue to the circuit board, making it impossible to replace the power button when it breaks, and forcing customers to replace the entire housing.

=== Deleting third-party repairs options ===
{{Main|Dyson ends relationship with third-party repair centers}}
The company no longer allows repairs through third-party repair centers. Dyson described this decision as '<nowiki/>''difficult''<nowiki/>' but emphasized its commitment to ensuring that '''all services and repairs meet Dyson's high-quality standards for our owners''<nowiki/>'.

=== Difficult to repair battery packs for Dyson V6 cordless vacuum ===
The Dyson V6 uses replacable battery packs that are available for purchase [https://www.dyson.com/support/journey/tools/967810-23 on their website]. The battery packs have plastic casing that is clipped shut in such a way that unclipping them requires damaging the casing. Additionally, the BMS used does not have a reset button. TronicsFix was unsuccessful in repairing the battery pack that was stuck sending the voltage without the button pressed down and he was forced to buy a replacement.[https://youtu.be/Wa1dsoZK4tk?t=1109]
