I have had my Dyson DC 33 vacuum for well over 5 years now, and it still suctions great. I am a little embarrassed to say that I have not thoroughly cleaned it like instructed but it still works great. It has the attachment to get hard to reach places. I would have liked to be able to just reach under place without an attachment. Other than that it is a GOOD vacuum.

I absolutely love our Dyson vacuum. TONS of suction power and a lot of accessories that get the job done. We have three dogs so that says it all. However, I wish the canister was bigger and that its main part was easier to detach from the top. Beside that, great vacuum for the toughest jobs.

We purchased new Dyson V7 Animal. Handheld, rechargeable with attachments. It has 2 speeds. Low is good for hard flat surface. High is excellent for carpet/rugs. The attachments are very handy and can be used to cleaned furniture and upholstery. Easy to empty compartment. Easy to clean and maintain. It is expensive however- about $400. The only real negative so far is battery life. It will only last about 5-10 minutes at high speed, then it just dies. Otherwise, it's a well-designed and high quality vacuum device.

I like this very versatile vacuum that my wife ordered. My "cleaning" skills are getting better as I get under things easier and can visibly see what I'm picking up. With a flick of a button I can detach and reattach the unit quickly and with ease. I also like the extended electrical cord.

My cordless works great! Had a problem with a part breaking and they replaced it with a whole new vac (main unit) not including attachments. no charge for shipping either way. I think it would be good if they made it possible to have an extra rechargeable battery because sometimes I run out of a charge. Easy to pick up for daily and vac the main floor in a hurry. Easy to store and easy to recharge.

The Dyson Vacuum has significant power, is lightweight, and performs well, leaving my surfaces clean.

I can say enough about Dyson cordless vacuum. I had other brand cordless vacuum but this is way better! It’s light which is good for someone who suffers of chronic pain but it is very powerful. It sucks all dust and dog’s fur. This is one of the best purchase we had done.

I have the Dyson V6 cordless vacuum. I am satisfied with the performance and the battery life is less than 20 minutes but the one thing they gets me is the dust will build-up and collect on the lower portion of the bowl and stop Circulation and will build-up a clogged so I have to empty it before the battery ever dies. Overall I like the vacuum. A few design improvements it would be a perfect Vacuum.

Adjusting to a cordless Dyson meant learning to store it on the charger, empty the bin, and rinse the filter regularly, but it's so worth it!

I now have two cats and my Dyson works really great. I’m picking up cat hair and attachments are very very good for taking the cat hair off of the furniture.

I have had it for five years and it works just like if I had bought it yesterday.

We have a Dyson V8. It is great to not have a cord. It will vacuum for a least 1/2 hour before the battery dies. Pros are: weight, ease of use, goes anywhere, no cord, picks up well. Cons: small dust bin, 3 year battery life, cost. We did have a problem with the beater bar attachment early on but they replaced it at no charge. The battery did wear out but it was easy to get a new one and to replace it. We would definitely buy another one.

For some reason it gets real loud while vacuuming. The canister isn't full. It's annoying. My attachments don't have a holder on the vacuum itself. My old Dyson did. I have the Animal Ball now. The suction on is GREAT! Can't use on an area rug though and you have to change the settings from carpet to hardwood.

Dyson is a great company. My mom always complained about how hard her vacuum was to push and that she got older. I really was looking for a vacuum that was really lightweight yet powerful for her because she has arthritis and I could not find one. When the Dyson battery power came out it blew my mind. I was so happy that I could finally buy her a vacuum. I bought one for myself first. I wanted to make sure that she would like it because I know how picky she is. She really is a clean freak and I was surprisingly ecstatic when using it. It met all and I mean all of her complaints on her other vacuums. I mean she must have spent tens of thousands of dollars on the highest quality vacuums when I was a kid growing up. I was finally able to get her her vacuum of her dreams. She always literally pictured this vacuum. She explained it and next thing you know it was on the market. It was actually a prayer answered. Unbelievable.

Great vacuum, love that it is cordless, battery life is great as we can vacuumed our entire space without it going dead, easy to clean and wow what suction. The wall mount is great as it also holds the attachments. Cordless allows us to take it down to the dock and clean our boat as well.

Dyson is known for “it never loses suction”, but it actually does...if enough debris like hair gets caught in the rollers and belt! It’s overall a great vacuum, but the price point could use a lot of reducing! It costs way too much, and that’s just the brand in itself.

Looks good (design) and good reputations. But, after using 1.5 year, the battery life is really short (less than 5min in turbo mode, 10min in regular mode). I would not buy this vacuum (Dyson V8 absolute) if I knew this.

Great suction, too expensive. The design is modern, the motor powerful, and suction strong. Too expensive for a plastic tool that can easily be damaged. Previously owned a Kirby system, of similar price. Kirby has metal body and heavy beater bar, along with multiple tools. Gifted Kirby system to my child when I bought Dyson.

This Dyson is the most fantastic vacuum I’ve ever owned. First of all it’s cordless! Big plus! I can dash around without tripping on a cord. Next, it has lots of pickup power. It picks up cat litter and cat hair just like that. I’m one of those seniors you’ve heard about...We can’t push around anything heavy anymore. This is lightweight and maneuvers into tight places quick as a wink. It even fits in the space behind the toilet. None of my old vacuums did that. It has 2 settings. I use it on my carpet and on my porcelain tile floors. Works great on both surfaces. I even can pick it up easily to vacuum all the gray hair off of Graycie’s cat tree. When I’m all finished, I just dump the dirt, and then I just plug it in and charge it up for our next adventure around the house.

My Dyson is 13 years old and still runs like a champ. Because we had a Newfoundland and a Chihuahua, and later, two cats and a German Shepherd, our home was covered in pet hair. We went through one vacuum after another. They all wore out, and none of them were good at getting up the pet hair. After spending tons of money on upscale vacuums, I was hesitant to throw away more cash. But a friend who also had multiple pets, told me her Dyson was the best she'd ever used. I'm so glad I tried it. For the first time in years, my floors were clean. This vacuum was built to last - and built for tough cleaning jobs. I highly recommend.

I have the cordless Dyson. It is so easy to take this vacuum to any area needed to clean inside your home or outside for your car. It is very lightweight. Attachments are extremely easy to put on and take off. There is also a variety of attachments to choose from. One downside is the storage of the attachments. The vacuum design does not account for storage for all of the attachments. Lastly, the suction of this machine is terrific. It is very forceful at its strongest setting and picks up very well. But, the drawback is, if you use its strongest setting, the power runs low very quickly, needing to be recharged again. Overall, I love my vacuum and am able to work around its few deficits.

I've had a Dyson vacuum for about 13 years (the same one). With some moderate repairs - all parts available at online stores - and regular cleaning of the filter, a Dyson vacuum will last a long time. It works very well and has several options for attachments to handle any job. They do tend to get a little noisier as they age, so if that's a concern, there might be other vacuums that will be better for you.
Reviewed April 27, 2020
It does a vacuum's job very, very well. The attachments are easy to use and the transition from vacuum to cleaning tool is easy enough for an older, middle age man like me. Our house breeds dust bunnies and our Dyson helps us maintain control of the herd.

I didn't think I'd ever love a vacuum, but I love my Dyson vacuum. It is lightweight and easy to use. If you have trouble dragging a heavy vacuum up and down the stairs, this vacuum will make your day. It swivels around curved objects easily, and is very powerful. It is not bulky either, and you can easily vacuum under the couch without having to move any furniture. I have never had any problems with it getting jammed or overheating. I will never buy another brand of vacuum again. The attachments are perfect for cleaning out your car, too. In my opinion as a Mechanical Engineer, it is a perfect design.

I love my Dyson canister vacuum. It has very strong suction and automatically self adjusts to the type of floor. It takes up very small space in the closet which is another plus. I enjoy the retractable plug also. My only dislike is that the canister doesn't hold much. So you have to keep an eye on the canister for when it reaches the fill line and empty it out which means stopping vacuuming and empty out the canister and returning and vacuuming more. With pets and living in a sandy area it does not take long to fill the canister so that is the downside of it. Other than that it is a great vacuum that swivels easily to get in tight spaces and has all sorts of attachments!

The power in this upright is the best I've seen - very good. Using the attachments is rather difficult however with the way they've designed the rigid and flexible hoses. The flexible hose bends until it is pinched off and suction is impeded. I don't think this was well thought out. I expect the hose to eventually break here once it gets older.

The Dyson vacuum cleaner has been an excellent investment. I’ve been using it for over 10 years. I keep it clean to get maximum suction efficiency. I appreciate the way it really cleans the carpet, lifting dust and other objects from the carpet. The only negative I have is how the attachments work with the vacuum cleaner. Cleaning the stairs is kind of uncomfortable the way the attachment works with the coiled extension. Other than that, I’m absolutely sold! I’ll never purchase any other brand of vacuum! All others are merely copy-cat versions! Just not with it in the long run!

I hate vacuuming, but I love my Dyson! The design is very conveniently ergonomic with the most commonly needed attachments on board. It's quieter than others I tried, which is a big plus. It is also very well balanced. It glides effortlessly as I go room to room, which is helpful for trying to get the job done quickly.

The Dyson 7 is pretty good. It was my third cordless vacuum, I'm 75 so that is a lot of dirt sucked up, and it is by far the best unit with good attachments but missing some I did want and no way to get them. Good suction but very short battery life overall. After 3 years it's about dead though it's been in the charger the whole time and not used that much. It was on sale and I am poor. If you have more to spend look at other brands and more powerful models in Dyson's line and you will be happier.

My Dyson is the very first model that ever came out and going strong- these are vacuums that are made so well and made to last, you'll never have to buy another one! Works so well and the design is top line. It's a bit heavy- I bet current models are lighter. The suction and effectiveness is the best of any brand I've used - it picks up more pet hair than the vacuums that say they are for picking up pet hair. Love the ease of the canister. The attachments are a little janky and hard to connect but again, I bet easier with newer models. A bit heavy for vacuuming stairs. Overall this brand proves you get what you pay for, I love my Dyson!

It has three power settings, economy, medium and boost and are switchable with a button push. In economy mode, the power is a bit better than a typical hand vac and a charge lasts 74 minutes. Medium is almost as strong as a corded vacuum and the charge lasts about 40 minutes. Boost mode is as strong or stronger than a corded floor vacuum and the charge lasts only 9 minutes. I used the Dyson mostly in medium mode and was able to clean dirt and long hair with no issue. I was also able to pick up gravel from a car floor easily.
The Dyson comes with 4 cleaning tools for different types of jobs and can be used with or without the extended stalk between the vacuum and the cleaning tools. The pieces attach securely with a satisfying click. Removing dirt from the vacuum is simple but more important, the canister is made in a way that causes the process to leave minimal dust. Very important for people like us with breathing issues.
It is easy to hold the vacuum as it weighs about 4 pounds and has a pistol grip. With the stalk, it is 42 inches from grip to bottom, depending on the cleaning tool used. It is a good length for floor cleaning. One negative is that the vacuum only stays on when the trigger is pulled. Another is that the weight can make it wearing to use for large areas. For those reasons I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. In general, I would not use this vacuum as my primary for a large home. It is great for a smaller apartment, spot jobs, stairs, inaccessible places and vehicles. It is also perfect to clean the places that a robotic vacuum could not reach.

I have a small Dyson designed for use by people with allergies. It is easy to maneuver and works quite well in most applications.

I purchased a house that was in dire need of repair. I hired a company to renovate the house. The renovation was so extensive that they gave me a new hand-held Dyson vacuum, to show their appreciation of our partnership. I used the vacuum sporadically for about two and a half weeks. I always cleaned it after every use, and always stored it in the charger. After that two and a half weeks, it would no longer charge. I contacted Dyson, and they sent a list of possible problems, and things to try to remedy the situation. None of them worked. Normally, under these circumstances, I would insist on a replacement. However, since I didn't actually "buy" it, I didn't believe I should making such demands.
So, it has been sitting collecting dust for the past three years. A $300-$400 vacuum that is COMPLETELY useless. After we got the house renovated, my wife had intended to buy a Dyson floor model. But after our experience with this one, she wants absolutely nothing to do with Dyson. So I guess in the long run, they saved us money.

The Dyson Ball Animal 2 upright vacuum is a waste of money. The power cord is weak and after the third time of using it. They claim to have a 5 year warranty. See below response from a customer service representative who will not send a $30 replacement part. It was not chewed by our pet. The vacuum chewed it. Additionally, when I use this vacuum, the entire house smells as it burns the animal hair. It's a horrific smell and the vacuum is poor quality. I will go back to a Shark. Their quality is much better!

I received a Dyson V7 as a gift for Christmas (2019). After only using a handful of times the battery started to give out. Only one month since getting it it now only runs for a maximum of minutes. I have tried everything to fix this from cleaning to leaving it on charge overnight, but every time I use it I only get about 3-4 minutes out of it before it dies. I contacted Dyson about this and they were very unhelpful, with the only resolution being that I would have to purchase a new battery for $160. I am not looking to invest even more money into this vacuum, especially if this is the quality I am to expect. It was an expensive enough purchase to begin with. Now I'm stuck with a super expensive paperweight. Will not be purchasing a Dyson ever again.

We agonised over which hoover to buy and finally settled on a Dyson..Big mistake. Nothing wrong with the customer service except for the fact that they are selling a sub standard product that performs like a £20 Chinese imitation. We have the V6, it's rarely used, we have no pets and no children but still it has to be stripped down every two weeks as the motor stutters due to dust. The roller gave up the ghost after 18 months, free replacement was sent and the problem was fixed but what if it had lasted another 7 months like the battery? You guessed it, a month or two after the guarantee ended the battery failed, time to buy a new one say dyson but the product doesn't even vacuum that well.
The thought of wasting another £70 on a new battery and then paying out when another part fails is just too much. Pretty poor performance, poor quality components, useless suction so hopeless as a handheld for the car...Dyson will never get another penny from me. Thinking of buying a Dyson? Don't bother, get a 'Shark'...at the very least you will get better performance and a 5 year parts guarantee.

Stay away from Dyson. I feel bad for recommending this company to my mom when she needed a new vacuum. It stopped working in less than one year; and they no longer stand behind their product like they used to. She called customer service and was referred to a local vacuum cleaner repair shop almost one month ago. It's still not fixed... As they are awaiting a part. She called Dyson customer service to inquire about the part, and spoke to a very rude prick who told her he had no idea when the part would be sent. I am going to bring my vacuum cleaner to her house so we can vacuum. I will never buy another Dyson and neither will she. They are just following a long list of other companies that used to be great... But are now unreliable and shoddy.

I've had issues since day 1 opening the canister. It is impossible to open, no matter how easy it may look and no matter what they tell you in the demo. I've done it for 3 years and had to finally throw it out. Before that, I called Dyson, and they sent a new canister. But it's not the canister, it's the opening mechanism. Now I'm in the market for another cordless and I doubt it will be Dyson. I was in Costco and it looked like they changed the design for the opening mechanism. Three years too late for me. I am so disappointed in Dyson. A company that prides itself on quality, should have a longer warranty than 2 years. BTW, Dyson offered a 20% discount if I wanted to purchase a new one. There are much better deals in Costco when they run specials, like they are this week.

If DYSON believes in their product quality should support the customer...especially when the vacuum is only a few weeks new. Sorry, Dyson...but I was expecting you to take some more responsibility!

My 3rd Dyson took a crap today. What is with Dyson? Poor customer service, high priced and lots of plastic parts that break easily. The V11 works fabulous when it does work. I am beyond frustrated now that I have to go through the entire customer service return experience. AGAIN Only to have to wait weeks for the replacement to come. I am confident Dyson is well aware of the issues with the trigger ceasing to engage. Yet, they are still selling these. I am hoping for an upgrade to the new machine. Wish me luck!

I will update this review when my situation resolves. But, long story short, Dyson still has not shipped me a replacement vacuum 16 days after receiving a non-functional one from Amazon despite prompt communication with Dyson on my part. Seems that my issue keeps falling through the cracks on their end. This is unacceptable customer service for such an expensive, high-end item.
A summary of my timeline: January 2 - received Dyson vacuum from Amazon with a bad battery. I filled out online warranty request to a replacement battery. January 3 - Dyson email asking for proof of purchase before handling the warranty claim. January 4 - Sent email to Dyson with proof of purchase. January 5 - Response from Dyson that they were able to verify the purchase and the warranty is now active. I presumed this would kick off shipment of my new battery and no further input from my part was needed. January 9th - Email to Dyson inquiring about status of new battery. Receive response that the I need to ship the entire vacuum back. Presumably Dyson was ignoring my situation until this reminder email.
January 10th - Email confirmation from Dyson acknowledging that I shipped the vacuum back and indicating that my replacement is processing. Confirmation from UPS with tracking number indicating that I should receive my delivery on Jan 16th. January 18th- I check status of shipment via UPS tracking number, and it indicates that the package has not yet been provided to UPS. January 25th (today) - A few more emails with Dyson, but their response has been essentially "we'll ship it when we can." Who knows if/when I will get the replacement vacuum. Very disappointing response from a company. By the way, this review got rejected when I tried to post on Amazon even though it is completely compliant with Amazon's policies. Very fishy to me.

I ordered the Dyson V11 cordless vacuum cleaner on Black Friday 2019. Instead of going with Amazon, I was swayed by Dyson’s offer to include a free set of attachments and the fact that they advertised their price match. Fast forward, my order was duplicated due to a glitch on their website. I called to cancel the duplicate order, which I was told was not possible even though the vacuum had not been shipped yet. So I waited until it arrived and brought it right back to UPS to ship back to Dyson.
Fast forward another month and a half since my return was received by Dyson, however I have yet to get my refund. I also entered a price match with my original order and then again when I called their customer service. I keep being told that the price match was entered on the day of my original order and yet I don’t see any refunds whatsoever. I have finally opened a case through PayPal and hopefully that will get me my refund. I never expected such shoddy customer service from a company that makes such good products! This is my second vacuum and I would buy another one but never again through Dyson directly. What a pain!

I want everyone to know the horrible and agonizing experience that I recently had with The Dyson co. I had had many dyson products over the years at a much higher cost than all their competitors and I was satisfied until I purchase a dyson stick wireless vacuum for over two hundred dollars. The battery stopped working 3 mths after purchase and of course it was under warranty. They sent me a replacement battery for free. The customer service attendant kept saying, "If you have trouble replacing the battery call us." So I got out my 4 different Phillips head screwdrivers and not one was small enough to fit the tiny screen that hold the battery in. I called and they said, We dont have a screwdriver to send you and that I should buy a #1 or #2 Phillips and that should work."
Sooo I went and got a #1 screwdriver and again to try to fit the screw. Sooo I called again and they said many people have had the same problem. Sooo again I went back to the hardware store and had to by a zero size which after 15 min I finally got the screws loose. They were unexpectedly inept at helping me at all. BE AWARE THAT THEY WON'T HELP YOU EITHER. I had to write this as I was so angry at the way they handled my problem while letting me know that I was just one of many with this problem. I never expected that Dyson would know that no one will ever have the size screwdriver that would fit their mini screw and wouldn't have an inexpensive screwdriver to help all the customers who's batteries fail (thousands). Buyer Beware!!!!

Dyson was willing to send me a replacement battery (ordered today, have not receive yet) but stated that the attachment is not under warranty and will cost $216 to replace, yes, that's the same cost as re buying another brand new V7, what's even more ridiculous is Dyson website only charging the exact same part for $63.99.

Don't order from Dyson. Placed an order on their site and Dec. 3rd and they charged me Dec. 5th. Never received the vacuum and they made me file a police return and file claim with UPS in which I did. I requested a refund at that point since they don't require signature and it would potentially get stolen again if it's just left at the door all day while I'm at work.

I've actually had two bad experiences from Dyson. This first was ordering a vacuum from them. It said it would arrive by the following Tuesday. After a few days for processing, I got a tracking number. It gave me that Tuesday delivery date but the status was "label created". They had not given it to UPS yet. Long story short, I received 1 ½ weeks after the promised delivery date. They had run out and were now shipping from across the country with GROUND shipping. Was never contacted to let me know of different delivery dates or anything. There is no way to check your order status unless you call, and when I did, I kept getting different answers.
The second experience is with the Dyson Pure Hot and Cool. I also ordered directly from them. I decided that it didn't perform well so I arranged a return. On their website, it brags how easy it is to return products. It absolutely is not easy. I filled out the return form online. I received a reply saying that the return process had changed to texting. Wanted me to let them know my mobile #, which I did and never got a reply or a text. I filled out the form again. This time I received a text with not much info. It said they would send shipping instructions, etc. I had received 2 boxes because it came with a free filter replacement. I received one email with a tracking number that didn't say whether it was for the machine or for the filter. The weight on the label was 12 pounds and both boxes are more than 12 lbs.
I finally called to find out which label I had received and why hadn't I received 2 labels. The rep on the phone had to put me on hold for a while and then came back and told me the label I received was for both boxes. I had never heard of that before. She said print 2 labels and put one on each box. While I was on hold I decided to search Dyson customer service reviews. I wish I had done that before I ordered directly from them. They had one star. Lots of reviews said the same thing I'm complaining about plus they all seemed to state that they hadn't gotten their refunds for returns way after they should have. I'm even considering keeping the fan rather than put myself through the stress of trying to return it.
It seems that Dyson has very shoddy customer service. It seems the reps are just guessing at their answers to my questions. Just telling me what I want to hear, but different answers each time. Their website makes flowery claims of great customer service. They are only words. They are not backed up by actual service of any kind. They are a large company but it seems like a small unorganized company. Now I'm angry at them and won't purchase from them ever again. Not even in a store. Their products are crazy expensive. One would think that good customer service would come with that price.

The Dyson vacuum works very well on carpet. However within a year the rollerball (between stick and head) starts to wear. It then leaves dreadful scuff marks if using it on wooden floors. You could keep replacing the head but you’d be doing it yearly - at great expense. I raised this with Dyson but they weren’t interested. If you have wooden floors then don’t buy a Dyson. I have found other people have commented on this problem. I won’t be buying another one.

Let it come to my house and return it and buy another one so I do that. I send the vacuum back that I'm supposed to send back and by the way I still haven't been refunded. I was supposed to receive another vacuum. Unknowingly to me it was returned and I got an email is how I found out. Oh, I'm so. I called Dyson to ask about it and they tell me, "Where the one hasn't been refunded but we're not going to send any back until you pay for another one."

As it is the little bit of money I did have I spent on a vacuum and now the little bit of money that I had for presents for the kids is tied up in another vacuum that I haven't gotten back.
So moral of the story is there's still money going out of my account which they're still going to refund but I end up with no vacuum and it cost me all this time and patience and I'm not somebody that has money. I've been saving for a very long time to get this V11 and I really wanted to get myself. For Christmas but now is all the problems.

Very disappointed in the Dyson (Purple) Animal Vacuum. It worked great for the first year, but not worth the price or the hype for picking up animal hair. I have a Golden Retriever. I have more hair wrapped around the roller than in the canister. I must use scissors to cut the hair off the roller, at minimal, once a month. After a couple of years, the suction just doesn't do the job anymore. I have always prided myself on how I take care of my "stuff". I would wipe down the vacuum cleaner every time I was done using it as well as maintaining the filters. This vacuum is going in the garbage and I am replacing it with the animal vacuum made by SHARK for less money.

I have had the Dyson Animal for several years. I noticed it had idiosyncrasies, but not until I started using it as my sole vacuum did I start to really recognize how subpar it is. The main complaint I have is the lack of suction. On the first pass, even simple household dust and particles are left behind. After several more passes, some are picked up, but not larger particles like leaves or dry pet food kernels, which I must pick up in a dust pan!!
The second part of the no-suction complaint comes when I am trying to vacuum up dust bunnies. The machine blows them forward away from the machine!! I have to sweep them together (often having to first haul them out from under the furniture where they were blown) and then, when rounded up, use the hose end of the machine to suck them up. When you put this situation together with the fact that this model is very heavy, all the effort it takes to just vacuum a tile floor is just not acceptable. I am definitely not going to buy another Dyson, but I am on the hunt for a vacuum that actually pulls in instead of pushes away the dirt. Too very bad, as it was an expensive investment.

Dyson used to be great. I raved about my old Dyson Animal cordless which was a V6. After using it daily for years on my hard floors picking up animal hair and using the attachments on my couch and bedding it finally died and I was going to have it repaired, but then I saw the Dyson Animal V8 for a really reasonable price at Costco and thought wow, it's more powerful. I'll just upgrade. The old one had a very good run. I couldn't be more sad at the change in suction (I still don't understand how a V6 picked up better than a V8), louder noise, shorter run time and overall cheaper feel.
After using it a couple times I went online to see what's going on and I saw they changed manufacturing countries and now are a mass produced product made cheaply and my deal at Costco was a result of lower standards and it shows. I ate my mistake and continued using this Dyson and now less than a year later instead of it vacuuming half of my house with a full charge, it only vacuums our office area and kitchen before dying and I have to rush to make it last that long. This vacuum is useless. I'd need to buy 5 in order to vacuum my whole house and I don't have a large house. The Miele is much more expensive but I believe you get what you pay for and having to throw this Dyson out after less than a year is more expensive in the long run so Dyson is out. Miele is next.

It was awful to maneuver. I was wore out by the time I was thru. I’ll NEVER own one of those! Since I used that one I’ve found out all the people I know that don’t like their Dyson owns the one with the ball, I know why now!

This vacuum is great when it is working properly. I have had it for three years and am having the head replaced for the third time right now. The repair guy said it has been months since replacements have been sent out. I don't know how true that is, but they have have several waiting parts in the shop. I really want to give this five stars because it is great suction and deep cleans, but it just breaks too often. Five repairs in three years is a bit much.

Purchased Dyson slim ball origin vacuum - very disappointed. Vacuum seems to have choke points where small ports are continually plugged. Also doesn't seem to want to pick up off of hard surface floors. Contacted Dyson - they said their engineer said vacuum more often. Really? I think once a day is plenty. When it comes to customer service I think this is where Clark Howard might say customer no service. Extremely disappointed in the vacuum - extremely disappointed in customer service. This was a brand new vacuum - money wasted.

Cleans well - but many easily broken, very expensive parts - no real service help- employees even said poor design and apologized that it would cost so much to fix after spending big dollars to purchase. Example - simple 2" plastic clip to hold electrical cord broke and costs $40.

I bought into the marketing not once but twice. These are the worst vacuums! They definitely progressively lose suction. It won’t even pick up thread!!!! I constantly have to take it apart & look for clogs. The replacement parts are ridiculously expensive. Never again. My Mom has a 40-year-old Vacuum from Sears that does a better job. Dyson! - never again.

We love our Dyson. We have had our smaller upright for around 5 or 6 years. It is lightweight, you can see all what has been picked up, very easy to empty out and get cleaning again. You need to empty it more, for it is a smaller vacuum of theirs, so it doesn't have a bag. It has a front basket to empty. We just empty it out more often, so not big deal. It does an awesome job on carpet, ceramic, tile and stone flooring. Whenever I decide I need a new vacuum, I will pick another Dyson. You cannot go wrong with that brand.

Portability is great. Could use a little longer battery life. Cleaning instructions could be better. Partially bought because of the brand name and is known for innovative products. Brand started, or seemed to, a new industry design phase replacing the traditional look.

Awesome when it runs. After a year of use it gets clogged easily. I still like it. Hangs on the wall so takes up less space. I bought the one for pets. We have a shepherd that sheds a lot so I suppose there is a good reason for clogging.

Stain vacuums are ahead of their time. A bit on the pricey side. But you do get what to pay for. I have a V8 cordless now. This is my second Dyson. I have a V6 and had no problems selling it second hand. Dyson has a no-hassle warranty. I have had to contact them twice now. They resolved the issue and sent out the replacement part at no cost to me. The second call, the vacuum was just past its two-year warranty and Dyson still looked after me and sent a replacement part at no cost. So if you purchase a Dyson, you have no worries as they stand behind their name. The Vacuums work amazing! So much we have purchased other Dyson products!

I have the smallest upright ball Dyson and got it on a great discount when it was discontinued. It doesn't pick up quite as good as the larger ones and has a small container, but has worked fine. You have to remember to clean all of the filters though or it won't pick up well.

I have a Dyson Animal 2 vacuum. It’s a great vacuum. The suction power is the same as it was the day I bought it. It takes a lot of abuse and keeps going. The only problem my wife have with the unit she says it’s a bit too heavy to carry from one floor to another. I must say they have great customer service whenever the vacuum gets blocked up. I carry it in and they serve it and give it back to me within a few minutes at no charge.

We live in Northern Ontario & Dyson does not provide service here. We have had the unit fail, no brush & then no suction. It is too bad, since we accepted Dyson's sales pitch & it worked for about 1 1/2 years. When it was operational it was good. We are trying to give it away w/o any success. We have bought a Bissell battery powered unit & are very pleased. The Bissell is a fraction of the cost of our Dyson. We have learned a valuable lesson in that our trust in advertising has plummeted. Dyson can contact me & maybe turn this around, but I doubt that I will hear from them. They pocketed my money & then became non-available.

We have the top of the line Dyson from about 3 years ago and I love it. We have two cats and it really picks up the hair. My only complaint, is that the hose is very difficult to get to stretch out to reach objects that are high up [ex.: the cornice on the living room drapes]. Overall I highly recommend a Dyson to anyone who wants a clean home.

Very good vacuum but easily becomes inoperable at times due to foreign body... pet hairs, etc. getting stuck in the roller. Sometimes it fails to charge properly. New generations come out frequently with no option to upgrade the older versions. I.e. battery life. It would be excellent if it were possible to purchase longer life batteries.

Has very low suction power. Doesn’t work in corners or on edges. Especially when using hand tools suction is extremely low. Battery life is excellent but performance is lacking. It is very convenient to grab quickly. It is messy and cumbersome to clean but fairly easy.

This machine does a very good job cleaning, however the design of the head is too big to fit under coffee tables, around and between chair legs. The hose is conveniently long but if you don't have something to block the machine in place the extra length of the hose is useless since extending it is impossible without holding on to part of the hose.

I absolutely love that I have the cordless Dyson. It is also much lighter than most v. cleaners, this is such a plus. It has two settings. On the stronger one it cleans really well. I only wish it would last longer and that when left for a minute it could stand on its own. Have to be careful because it can fall and cause the top canister to break.

We have the Dyson cordless V6. I really have only one issue with the vacuum cleaner and that is it only runs for a 15 minute maximum before you must charge it again. Therefore, since our home is 2400 ft.² I cannot possibly clean thoroughly on one charge. That being said, the cost certainly does not equate to a reasonable length of usability. I definitely would not recommend it unless you had a small apartment or home.

The Dyson cordless clogs up constantly and does not pick up well. It is lightweight and does ok for just a quick vacuum. However, I am very disappointed in its performance overall. Way overpriced for the performance it provides. The collection cup does not dump out entirely and I have to use a screwdriver to reach into it and get stuff out. I am going to go back to using an old $50.00 vacuum for more thorough cleaning. I would not recommend this vacuum.

The main problem is the battery. At first the battery would last about 20 minutes. Afterwards, the battery would hold its charge less and less. Now, after 18 months, the motor of the vacuum cleaner only spurts even with the battery fully charged. The model is Dyson V6 Slim and is totally useless for the moment. Is the battery the only problem?

This is by far the best vac I have ever purchased. I have hard and carpet floors and 3 dogs. You literally do not even have to be right by the hair on the floor and this vacuum will suck it up. It can be a little clunky, depending on the version you buy. In fact, one that I did purchase was a smaller model (didn't know it at the time) and that one, unfortunately, was not a good investment, as the canister filled up much quick than the full size models and I ended up getting a different vacuum. Other than the smaller versions, Dyson Rocks!

I had this vacuum for two years when it finally quit on me. I called Dyson who said that It was apparently the motor, but that’s not the only problem when you think of it overall. In order to clean this machine it takes approximately half an hour just to get it apart and clean it. Then you have to let all the parts dry, preferably overnight, and put it back together again the next day! You need a college degree to figure it out. Each time I cleaned it, Which they say you should do once a month, I had to watch a YouTube video. It is the worst in that aspect, and I would never buy another one again. Who wants to spend all that time just cleaning it out?! A waste of time.
