Catch stubborn dust and dirt with this Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal 206031-01 upright vacuum, which features Cinetic science and HEPA filtration and is designed for homes with pets. The adjustable cleaning head adapts to the shape and surfaces of your home.
Q: This vacuum is good for dogs hair?
A: We have 4 Siberian huskies and 2 cats - constant shedding. Hair is a daily battle. This vacuum keeps up even better than the Dyson ball we've used for 8 years prior. We broke 3 other big brand vacuums in short order due to the amount of hair and use. The older Dyson kept up like no other (and still works, we just wanted to upgrade) - and this new Cinetic vacuum works even better!
Q: Can we use this on laminate floors?
A: Yes I use it all the time
Q: Upright vacuum stability, when using accessories
A: The hose is so tightly fitted that you barely get any reach. So you constantly fighting the vacuum against the hose. The suction on the hose is nonexistent. Plan vacuuming it's great.
A: The big difference between the two is that the allergy one comes with a million different tools and attachments for cleaning vents, fans, furniture, under furniture, blinds, you name it. The regular animal comes with only 3 attachments. And i believe the filter on the allergy one is different but im not 100% sure on that. I opted for the allergy one for all of the extra tools.
Q: Can I vacuum my matress and can I wash its filters
A: It can clean anything in your home. Comes with a mattress cleaning tool amongst other tools and there is no filter to clean like the lower end Dysons. Worth it's weight in gold!
Q: Is there a switch to release from upright position?
A: No, and that is something I really don't like about this model over the previous couple of Dysons I have owned. You just have to push down hard on the upright handle assembly, while rotating it rearward slightly, until it finally releases the lock: no pedal, no switch. It can be tricky sometimes, and it often feels unnatural, like I may break it.
Q: Does this vacuum have a filter inside the wheel because I heard it does.
A: It does, but it is for the life of the vacuum, doesn't require cleaning.
Q: What is the noise level (db) on this vacuum?
A: I don't have a meter to give you a decibel level, but this vacuum is so much quieter than the hoover I was using before. I used to have to wear ear protectors and my dog ran away. Now, she mostly hangs out while I vacuum, and I don't feel compelled to wear ear plugs. So, it's pretty good!
