A: Hi Lynn, this is Krystal with Dyson. Thank you for your interest in the Dyson Cyclone V10. The Dyson cordless do not require the docking station to charge. You can bypass the dock and charge it by using just the wall charger. Best Wishes, Krystal Dyson Customer Support
A: I asked this same question when I was browsing the models. It's meant for hard surfaces such as tile or wood. To me, it wasn't worth the extra 100 dollars to go from the Animal to Absolute for just that roller when we've done without soft rollers on hard surfaces for all time before now. The rest of the accessories and parts are the same.
Q: Does this work well on tile and hardwood floor to suck up dirt?
A: This vacuum works really well for me on my hardwood and linoleum floors even at the low setting. It will usually suck up everything from leaves and grass to food particles and kitty litter. I don't have tile floors but I imagine that it will work great! You may just need to use the medium setting to be able to get the dirt out of the grout lines. (And the battery still lasts a good amount of time on the medium setting...I would say a good 30 - 40 minutes). Hope this helps!
Q: what does the 'soft roller' do?
A: The soft roller is meant for hard surfaces such as tile or wood. From the reviews I've read online, they do get dirty and kind of nasty in a fairly quick order. I personally don't believe it's worth the extra 100 dollars to go from the Animal to the Absolute just for that one roller.
A: We are using it on hardwood with no issues. You can set the height of the brush accordingly.
A: Yes; you must engage or hold the trigger while vacuuming. But it seems natural in hand, light, and easy to maneuver with one hand and one motion. Does not seem to be an issue.
A: Hi Nick, this is Krystal with Dyson. Thank you for your interest in the Dyson Cyclone V10. This model does not include the soft roller cleaner head. However, one can be purchased separately. The cleaner head that is included is compatible with bare floors as well. Best Wishes, Krystal Dyson Customer Service
Q: What would be the best stick for a house with wood floors, area rugs, tile, and carpet?
A: I have all of the above in my house and I love the V10 Dyson. I like that you can adjust the suction for each type of surface .
