Dyson - Big Ball Canister Vacuum - Yellow/iron

We first got an Upright Dyson Ball multi floor 2. It is a great vacuum with an excellent suction but unfortunately due to the ball is hard to reach under the furniture what makes your cleaning a little complicated. A couple days after we got it we found about this Big ball bagless canister and even though the suction is not as good as the upright vacuum, it does a great job. It is not heavy and you can reach every space in your home. It is really easy to use and clean. We had our doubts at first so we went to test 5 different canister vacuum that are rated as the top 5 and we compared them side by side with ours and the Big Ball was the only one that could clean and suck all the different samples of dirt we brought with us like dust, cat litter, hair, coffe grounds and more stuff without spreading them around unlike the other vacuums. I would definitely recommend it.

This thing is an absolute beast when it comes to cleaning the floors in our house. Sure it lacks convenience but makes up for it in power and in price. Wish it had a couple more attachments included but oh well. Does amazing on carpet and surprisingly well on hardwood. Would recommend if you don't mind being plugged in.

This vacuum is awesome. We have hardwood floors and it does a great job with the floors moving around corners and on rugs as well. Also, we love the accessories because we have dogs and we get them hard to reach places where their hair likes to hide.

My first one lasted about 5 years and it has been my favorite vacuum! I really do recommend. This time my Dyson ball was larger than my first version. Awesome!

This vacuum is amazing. Picks up the dog hair of an Alaskan Malamute, Husky, and Chow with no issue

Bought this vacuum for my mom. She loves it. Lightweight, easy to replace attachments. Has lasted while with not complaints.

I bought this to replace my previous canister vacuum that was damaged. This is basically the same one - just an upgrade. A few things: 1) they changed how the long stick of the handle (the wand?) is pieced together and i do not like it as much as the older model. To elongate or shorten is not as convenient. The old one connected in the middle so it was very convenient to lengthen or shorten and make adjustments as you were doing the stairs. This one is way at the bottom where the brush head is and the elongation seems to go in reverse so it isn't as smooth. it seems like a small thing but it is inconvenient enough that i wanted to comment on it bc it slows down my vacuuming. on the stairs i was adjusting length with almost every step before and now it is not as easy to adjust. 2) It seems more powerful. but my old one was having issues suctioning so that's why i traded it in. so i can't compare quite correctly. but it does seem quite a bit more powerful. it is louder. 3) the container seems smaller so it doesn't seem to hold as much dirt as before. You have to empty more frequently. Or maybe it is sucking up more dirt so it was filling faster? but it is smaller in size though. 8-) 4) as with the old one i do love that the wand and brush roller are quite slim and light in weight so i can fit it under a very low bed quite easily to vacuum. I have a 4" clearance only with my beds so that is why i wanted a canister with a brush head. but again elongation was an issue bc i had to pull it almost all the way out to adjust. bc to do the closer locations you need the wand shorter as it can't quite bend. so adjusting quickly is an issue. it is actually starting to be a pain. 5) also as the wand and brush roller head are light and small - there isn't room for them to add a light in the brush roller so you can't see where you are vacuuming if you are vacuuming under the bed or vacuuming at night. (i really wish it did have one though. i used to have a shark rocket and i loved it bc the light allowed me to see a lot of dust particles when i vacuumed at night. i only switched to a dyson bc i wanted a canister bc the brush head and wand were small enough to go under my bed. the shark vacuum brush couldn't fit under the bed bc it had this big thing where the wand was attached to the head. and the engine was on the wand so you couldn't go past a certain point). but not enough of a deal breaker for me not to get it 6) i do like the power of this one. 7) one of the reasons i chose it over other dyson vacuums was bc it is intended for multipurpose floors so it is good on both wood and carpet. however if the side breaks on the brush head, it scratches up your floors. the shark was really good on my wood floors and the wheels were nicer. but the shark was heavier as the engine is in the wand. for this dyson, only the canister part is heavy. but you only carry it if you go up or downstairs and it is much lighter than the old canister vacuums from kenmore back in the day. also there is an easy to carry handle. 8) also shark wasn't hepa and this one is. 9) the electric cord is a good length. i can go 2 rooms. it is a lot longer than some other vacuum cleaners so i do like it. I do wish it was just a tad longer by 2 feet though. 10) i originally wanted a bag vs bagless vacuum but the price/effectiveness ratio of this one was good for me. and it is very easy to empty. In conclusion, i do recommend a buy if you know what you are buying. the power is good. the wand is light. i do vacuum every day bc i have a lot of pets. it fills up quickly. the wand adjustment isn't as nice as the older model and that causes some annoyances when you are vacuuming shorter spaces. however the wand length can go to a good size if you are tall. and you can adjust to a good size if you are shorter. and there is no light on the brush head. but it vacuums very well.

Really enjoying using this Dyson Canister Vac. Will be ordering accessory attachments as well.
