Can I ask, with all these Dyson Ventilators and other versions spreading through the market, are these long-term solutions or only short term? In theory, in a normal World, the UK will now have more ventilators than it could ever normally need. So has the market effectively died for a few years, or, are these new units only temporary solutions and normal ventilator replacements for existing machines will still need to be catered for.

There is (and always will be) a market for quality equipment that meets the expectations of customers.

Whether those customers have the necessary funds remains (again, as always) a different matter.

I should imagine that, in the medium to long term, the Dyson et al will simply be a blip in said market, and of historical (and perhaps technical) interest only.
