Early users of Dyson's CameraJet are reporting that water is getting into the battery compartment of the newly launched $499.99 electric toothbrush. One user posted on the r/Dyson subreddit that their model "broke within 30 seconds."

I think of Dyson as a sort of cult product line, like Tesla or Apple. That's not a judgement on whether they are good or bad, but rather just that for a certain set of people in the cult, the Dyson name will excuse most really bad design decisions, unless of course it breaks in 30 seconds
