Dyson - DC59 Animal Bagless Cordless Stick Vacuum - Nickel/Red/Purple

Now I have had stick vacuums in the past, in fact, I have the predecessor to this Dyson model, which I have loved having. But I must say, the power that this new Dyson has, takes my old Dyson to the cleaners, so to say. With a Dyson, I love that they have more suction power than other vacuums I have owned, and with the Dyson DC59, you get 3 times the suction power than you get with a ordinary vacuum! I also appreciate that I can get 26 minutes worth of use on a single charge, so when the kids, animals, or even my husband come tracking in dirt and mud on my freshly cleaned floors, I can pull my Dyson DC59 down off of the charger, and eliminate that dirt that mysteriously showed up on my floors. I can also follow after a snack time with Wyatt, go over the trail of crumbs he left behind, and clean up any evidence! Aside from the fact that this vacuum really does "suck", and that it is easy to take down from the charging station, use then put back on, I love the motor in this vacuum. I mean, my husband can go on and brag about the motor in his muscle car, but at least the V6 motor on my vacuum, does more than his does! I get more suction power than the V2 my other one had, it also performs just like a upright vacuum, and with the 2 Tier Radial Cyclone Technology, that is brought to the cordless vacuum for the first time, I have a machine that actually does work and that I do not have to spend hours under the hood on either! Another feature that I really like is the re-engineered brush bar, which is great for both hard floors and carpet cleaning, making it easy for me to truly follow those trails of dirt and crumbs as they go from carpet to hard floors! And with the Dyson DC59 weighing only 4.65 pounds, I can truly feel like a super woman, I mean, I do not see my husband being able to lift up his vehicle with a V6 motor, eliminate the dirt in the house, and effortlessly place it back up on the wall! So if you are looking not only for a stick vacuum that can not only get the job done, but that is also lightweight, then head to your local Best Buy today and get the new Dyson DC59!

Because of our dogs' hair and the dirt and debris they track in, we try to vacuum/sweep almost every day. While we've been sick over the past month that hasn't happened. The resulting accumulation overwhelmed our (good and expensive) vac. Decided it was time for something designed with pets in mind. This would be the first vac we've bought A.D. (after dogs.) I was headed for another brand, but Best Buy's Guide to Vacs designed for pets and customer feedback swayed me toward Dyson. Never in my life thought of getting a stick vac (they look like they can't do anything!!) When Best Buy said -- if you can vacuum every day, maybe a stick vac would work for you -- click! I had a bagless once and swore never again, but the clever way to empty the dirt reservoir AND IT'S SMALL SIZE make it must less icky than emptying a large reservoir. Dirt falls out easily, but If hair accumulates in the reservoir it's easy to use a dull knife to pull it out. Even now when there's a lot to vacuum up, on most I haven't had to empty the dirt reservoir more than once per charge. I'm sure once the house is actually clean the reservoir size will be more than enough. And cordless? The attraction is obvious -- how can you do a quick vacuuming when you're changing plugs and hauling a big long old cord around? But what about power? Ha, plenty. I'm sure there's a trade-off between power and battery life and I think Dyson made a good compromise. I know there's concern about the battery life but 20 minutes with this guy is enough to do a good once over on our main floor (including upholstery as well as floors.) With no cord to manage this goes much quicker than with a traditional upright. Also, because of the trigger mechanism (which doesn't bother me at all like I thought it would), it's not running when you're not actually vacuuming (changing tools, moving furniture or rugs or toys, etc.) Also, this is so nicely balanced and light that moving it is much faster and easier than a traditional upright. So it takes you more than the 20-26 minutes to use up that charge and you can get much more done than in an equivalent time with a traditional upright. Everything that gets dirty -- brushes, filter, reservoir is easily cleanable. I did get the rotating brushes tangled with hair a couple of times -- easy to clean (but a nuisance.) Now if I have a lot of pet hair on a carpet, I do a first pass with the brush removed. Of course that doesn't really deep clean, but when you put the roller back in and go over it again, MUCH less (or no) tangling. So now I am truly at war with pet hair with maybe a chance of winning. I wish I had taken pictures of the pet hair I have vacuumed up already. (Another advantage of the clear reservoir over bags -- it is VERY gratifying to see what you're getting rid of.) I have ordered the mini turbine unit with the counter-rotating disks and a couple of other attachments. I agree with some other reviewers that this alternate mini-turbine should be included with this vac instead of the rotating brush turbine. Dyson attachments are pricey, but I can see the need and value. With a good price on the unit at Best Buy, the total of vac and attachments is still less than I've spent on some vacs on the past. I hope this (including the battery) holds up under daily use! If it does, its replacement will be a Dyson -- and then I'll already have the extra tools! I have ALREADY recommended this to a friend.

The New Dyson DC59 hit Best Buy store shelves on February 1st, with a retail value of $499.00. Prior to it being available in stores, a select group of bloggers, including myself, were chosen to try out the The New Dyson DC59 in our own homes. I have been using this new cordless vacuum from Dyson for a few weeks now, and absolutely love it!! Keeping our carpets and hard wood floor clean has never been easier and fun, thanks to Dyson's re-engineered brush bar for hard floor and carpet cleaning :-) Fun, you ask? Well, every time my husband or I reach for the New Dyson DC59, the girls get excited and want to help out. Here are a few photos I took of Bella helping her Daddy vacuum the floor after she spilled a cup of fishies and crushed them (on purpose). Unlike other vacuums we own that are bulky and have loud motors when turned on that scare the girls, the new Dyson DC59 is lightweight (Only 4.65 lbs) and quiet. No more running away from the vacuum, like the girls always did, as they looked for a place to hide and cover their ears. Just look at some of the key features of the The New Dyson DC59, which you can pick up now at your local Best Buy or order from the Best Buy website for only $499.00 Now, you may think the price tag is a little steep at $499.00, seeing that this cordless vacuum needs to stay plugged in and charged, and only offers 26 minutes of clean time. But, once you try this cordless vacuum, you will be amazed at the suction it gets -- 3 times the suction of any other cordless vacuum in use. And, with a V6 motor, which is 50% more power than a V2 motor, the new Dyson DC59 is able to perform like an upright. Features: - V6 motor o Spins at 110,000rpm (5 times faster than a Formula One race car engine) o 4-pole magnet that delivers 50% more power than its predecessor, V2 o 3 times smaller than a conventional vacuum motor o 350 Watts - Re-engineered nickel manganese cobalt battery o 1.5 times more power than its predecessor (same run time, however – the extra capacity is used to power the V6 motor) o 3.5 hour charging time (vs. 5 hour in the DC44) o Boost mode still available - 2 Tier Radial Cyclone technology o 15 cyclones, arranged across 2 tiers o Work in parallel to increase airflow and capture fine dust - Re-engineered brush bar o Wider (approx. 10” vs. 8” on the DC44) o Improved maneuverability due to smaller ball at the back Dyson - DC59 Animal Bagless Cordless Stick Vacuum - Nickel/Red/Purple - Alternate View 1 o Self-tightening mechanism keeps the brush bar stable o New configuration of carbon fiber filaments and nylon bristle tips to remove fine dust and dirt across all floor types o Extended neck for greater ease of use - Ergonomic updates o Soft-touch trigger is easier to hold (makes for longer clean time – people don’t need to keep it on when moving furniture, etc. – less wasted energy) o Handle now more comfortable to hold o Only 4.65 lbs o Hygienic one-touch bin emptying, now on both sides (for lefties and righties). One push empties bin, 2nd push detaches bin completely for washing, etc. o Pre-motor filter located at the top; now much easier to take out for washing Phew, those are a lot of features for such a small cordless vacuum. And, with the name Dyson, known in the vacuum world as providing top quality products, the new Dyson DC59 is another winner. You really do have to see this cordless vacuum up close and try it out to see why my husband and I love it so much. And, I can only imagine the rave reviews customers will be sharing once they purchase and use the Dyson DC59 in their homes. Out of all the nifty features of the Dyson DC59, I have to say that my favorites are the Hygienic one-touch bin emptying (on both sides for lefties and righties. One push empties bin, 2nd push detaches bin completely for washing, etc. And, when it comes to the filter, you don't have to worry about running out of replacement filters, as you simply have to take it out and wash it.

Let me make it clear, I have now owned 4 different Dyson vacuums from the canister floor vacuum to the handheld to the DC35 Stick now as of yesterday this model and I am never sorry I paid a lot. Dyson stands up to its reputation and stands by each of its products and these products blow away any competitor out there period. This items is no exception. I traded in my DC35 first generation stick vacuum for this one and I cannot believe how powerful this lightweight small unit is. It sticks to the floor it is so powerful a suction and what is different than first generation is that the attachments work and keep working. The DC35 rotor on the floor attachment would stop intermitently and clog up. What Dyson has improved upon is the ease of use, the weight of the unit and increased the power to make this the most versatile cordless stick vacuum on the market. Plus, what Dyson also does is make things so easy to clean and interchange, it is impossible to clog up or break. Granted I broke the battery on my DC 35 the first year, but with a 2 year warranty Dyson shipped me out a new unit no questions asked. I love this unit and the attachments are first class from the crevice cleaner to the brush to the small upholstery cleaner, it makes the vacuum worth the high price tag. Granted this unit cost more than some of the canister models, however, if you can find a deal like I did at Best Buy yesterday (20% off), you can save a bit of $$. If you are shopping for a new stick vacuum, do not hesitate and buy this unit. You will not be sorry and your house and car will be cleaner. I could not believe how much dirt came out of one pass of what appeared to be a clean carpet! Unbelievable! Dyson you have done it again!

I use it every single day. The battery lasts long enough to clean whole rooms easily and still has enough left to clean other places in the house too. It's plenty powerful enough to pick up most stuff in one pass, but I habitually do it twice anyway. I use it to clean the car too, since it's turbo mode is awesome and of course it's still cordless. Super good at picking up cat hair too! I even use it to suck up the occasional spider who finds his way to my ceiling! My only real complaint, besides price, is that there is a little gap on the hinge of the canister that the door drops open on; that hinge provides lots of room for small dust and particles to fall back out when the bin is not completely empty and hung back on the wall. Numerous times I've dropped cat litter on the floor from that small hole, only to have to suck it up again, then place my finger over the hinge while I dump it out. The one odd thing I noticed was when I opened up the package. For some reason, they provide this awesome wall mount that's really easy to use, but they don't provide any screws to mount the wall mount with!!! They even provide a nice mounting diagram with exact measurements between the screw points (5 inches). But no screws. What the heck? I had to go to Lowes to buy screws just for this one task. Then finding a wall that had both easy access to a wooden stud and immediate access to an outlet was a little more difficult in my house, but that's really not their fault, I just happen to have a lot of block external walls and not many interior wooden walls. Otherwise, GREAT vacuum.

This vacuum is light, portable, compact and can fit into my the useless space between my fridge and wall (otherwise known as the dusty bunny collector). It’s a cordless vacuum cleaner with a slim design and a weight of only 4.65lbs. It has a fantastic pivoting head that makes it easy to vacuum at any angle without having to contort yourself into strange positions. When fully charged, the Dyson DC59 has a 26 minute clean time which is perfect for zipping through our smaller house or an apartment. Thanks to it’s V6 motor, 2 Tier Radial cyclones and a re-engineered battery, the Dyson DC59 Animal can suck up as much dust as a corded vacuum. Don’t mistake this for your hand vacuum from your past – this puppy easily transitions from floor to upholstery and has some serious suction. I have tried several types on vacuums on our couch and NONE (including another upright Dyson) worked as well as the DC59!

This is my 5th Dyson and 2nd cordless unit. First one ever that requires routine maintenance at least for me. After two months use I noticed it was leaving 'scratch' marks on my hardwood floors! Yikes! Looking closer the two small concentric 'wheels' at the pivot point where very abraded and were leaving marks on my floors. I then realized that my tile floor - which is rough slate style tile - had abraded those little saucer wheels and then the rough edges on them was marking up my wood floor when I moved to that part of the house. NOT GOOD. And not warranted. $1.99 EACH from Dyson. At this rate I'll be out $24/yr putting new tires on the Dyson or I'll need two units, one for tile, one for wood. This plus the tiny dirt compartment plus the battery only lasts 5-6mins on high speed. It's a great little dog hair picker-upper but for the price, I think it's going to be returned.

This is my 2nd Dyson. My first is a 12 year old Dyson Animal. It still works well but but I got tired of dragging it up and down the stairs of my new house. Having allergies, I can say the Dyson Animal outperforms other vacuums. I received a robotic vac, now in charge of my room. I used the cordless Dyson Animal after the "freshly cleaned and parts replaced" robot finished the room twice. I ended up dumping my dyson canister twice...so it's picking up a ton more than the robot. My family room, most often used, I vacuumed and dumped the canister 5 times on Sunday. Being a guy with bad allergies, I try to keep the carpets clean and this does the job. After my first day of vacuuming the family room, I have vacuumed three more times this week and filled the canister 1/4-1/2 each time. (I'm shocked considering how clean the carpet looked.) Compared to the corded Dyson Animal this has a smaller vacuum head but don't let it fool you. Naturally, the canister is also smaller. I really like the portability of it. Not having a chord is great for the stairs. Once charge leaves me enough to do about 1800sqft. on regular mode.
