THE VACUUM OF A LIFETIME!
There are extensive reviews on the product, so I will just highlight a few of the amazing features that I found stand out: (ranked in order of awesomeness)0 – (didnât feel like this could rank because itâs so obvious) but cordless has changed my life!!!!1 – so lightweight you could run a 5k with it2 – swivels on a dime (basically 360 degrees)3 – can literally lay flat to vacuum under furniture4 – sucks up literally anything… we have two medium pile wool natural fiber rugs and they did release some fibers but not too much shedding. I donât think itâll be an issue ongoing like several people mentioned.5 – the canister emptying is genius (contrary to a previous review, I found it really intuitive)6 – has turned me into the chronic clean freak that I always aspired to me7 – Iâm building up a nice callous in my thumb like the 70 yo male who left a review… he tells no lies, it broke the skin on even my 20 year old hands. But Iâm going to stick with it and have a dang fine callous to show for it!8 – the charge on the regular setting held for right at 40 minutes. The blue battery level buttons were helpful to know when you need to stop loitering and speed up your cleaning job!9 – while this put a dent in my short term savings account, I was dancing around the house singing âbest $400 that I ever spent!â 10 minutes into vacuuming.A few additional notes addressing previous issues mentioned in reviews:- the trigger issue… people mentioned how annoying it is to depress the power button the entire time. I have to admit, I was pretty nervous about this feature and thought Iâd join them in finding this frustrating. and while I will say I think this is the only reason you risk getting a blister or callous because the way your finger has to stay poised on the trigger, I understand why this is a feature. Hereâs why: this thing is so agile and so quick to move and swivel with you as youâre walking, that you basically can vacuum one handed while moving furniture out of the way and lifting to vacuum under rugs and stuff. And you honestly need the agility of pushing the power button on and off. Itâs helpful because you normally wouldnât turn a regular power button on and off as frequently as you do with this one. And I think that it is a fitting feature for this vacuum.- the one thing I do not like… gasp… dare I even admit thereâs one thing, but I really wish there was a way to dock this puppy if you need to take a break mid-clean. In other words, it doesnât stand upright on its own. So, you have to lay it on the ground or try and lean it against furniture, which isnât the end of the world…itâs just too top heavy to stand upright which is a little bit of a bummer.- it doesnât leave those gratifying carpet rows that show you vacuumed. I will say I kind of miss those, because I didnât realize how subconscious those were to me feeling like my carpet was clean. So just know that your carpet is clean even though it doesnât look like a well manicured field of corn after you vacuum.Closing remarks, we had an old DC17 Dyson tank that weighed 30 pounds and required you throw your whole body weight to maneuver. I have nerve damage from stepping on that cord at the wrong angle of my foot, and I shed blood and tears trying to haul that tank around my house for nearly a decade. I put in my time, and Iâm so thankful we upgraded. This new beauty is the bomb! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

LOVE this vacuum!
UPDATE 11/9/17: I failed to mention that we have hard-wood floors throughout our entire house with a couple of large area rugs, when sweeping the area rugs I notice that my hand hurts a bit between my thumb and pointer finger, I mention this because another reviewer said that her hand hurts while using this vacuum so if you have a lot of carpet I could see this happening. But, I still love this vacuum!LOVE this vacuum! I’m going to start the review with the length of time of charge because that was important to me prior to buying, I have yet to run the battery out. That being said, I never use it on max suction because it picks up the hair and dirt very well on the regular setting. I have used it upstairs and downstairs as well as the stairs without loosing the charge, those days I always have 1 bar left before I plug it back in. Most days I use it on the lower level only and usually have 2 bars left.We are not a family that obsesses about cleanliness, we wear our shoes in the house, we live on a farm with two dogs and we still do not have grass (a new build), so you can imagine the amount of dirt we track in.I originally bought this vacuum to help maintain the dust and dog hair in between major house cleanings but found that I use it along with my corded vacuum as well. It has capabilities that a normal vacuum just doesn’t have. I’m able to sweep under all the beds because it lays completely flat, I run it over the dog beds and around the toilets and under cabinets. I have used all the parts that came with it, I especially love the fabric tool, we have a heavy duty cover on our leather couch and I simply use the fabric tool to completely sweep off all dirt and dog hair, very good on upholstery and underneath cushions. It is very easy to empty the canister, I usually empty it once during my cleanings and at the end, it’s also easier to empty if you detach the wand while emptying. The roll bar is very easy to clean if anything winds around it, which doesn’t happen that often most things go right in to the canister.We are a Dyson loving family, I started with a DC07 animal 15 years ago until it started to lose suction, I then used the DC33 for a bit but bought another DC07 refurbished just recently because they just work better in my opinion. After talking with a local vacuum shop, I found out that the motors are the same whether you buy the animal or the regular/all floor model, at least that’s the case with my DC07, they said the only difference is the colors and attachments. They also said that I probably could have fixed my first DC07 at little cost (mad at myself about that) and that regular maintenance is a really good idea. You better believe I’ll maintain these two from now on, they aren’t cheap but so worth the price! Good luck!

La aspiradora viene empaquetada perfectamente en su caja original, llego antes del tiempo que se suponÃa iba a llegar, aspira Perfecto y es original! Es una gran inversiÃ³n para mantener la casa limpia ya que yo tengo un perro grande que vive la mayor parte dentro de casa.

I would highly recommend this cordless vacuum, I have 2 small dogs who cast a lot of hairs & this deals with them with ease. I can also do my full flat in around 10 mins, compared to old upright that took 30 mins as had to plug in each room. Great investment and seems built to last, very chuffed as can now keep on top of their hairs a lot more aswell.

Non dovrebbe esser difficile per un’azienda come Dyson capire che se si spedisce un prodotto da UK in Italia ci vuole la presa di corrente italiana, non quella inglese! Consiglio a chi comprerÃ questi prodotti di assicurarsi che il fornitore sia localizzato in Italia e se del caso assicurarsi che la spina elettrica sua quella giusta.

I really like the fact that the vacuum really deep cleans, removing all dust particles and pet hair from the carpets and also dust and debris from the floor. The vacuum is light weight and easy to move around. The battery life is long enough for me to complete my household cleaning. An excellent machine!
