Dyson - V6 Motorhead Bagless Cordless Stick Vacuum - Fuchsia/Iron

This thing is awesome. Its light weight and powerful. The way the dirt canister opens can be a little awkward but it just takes a little getting used to. The battery life highly depends on whether or not you are using the unit on MAX power. It runs about 15 min on max. So depending on how big your house is it might take you a couple charges. We love this thing for our hardwood floors.

Awesome power for a small vacuum works great for getting into small and tight places .Use it daily picks up everything great on dog hair.

Great suction, easy to use, only problem is on max suction battery life is on the shorter side

I read many review before deciding to buy this vacuum. I have tons of pet hair, and I went with the motorhead unit to get more brush power to get more hair. This vacuum works very well and I have plenty of battery life to use it how I want to use it. This doesn't completely replace my Dyson upright, but I didn't intend for it to. I use this vacuum to spot clean when I see clumps of hair, or I spill something. It is quick and easy to just go grab this vacuum rather than unroll a cord and plug in the upright. Using the wand and tools, it is very easy to clean cobwebs from ceiling corners and baseboards. Suction power is great, and when you use the "max" mode is really does suck (in a good way!). Though max mode will really cut down your battery life.

I spent a lot of time going back and forth between the other options in Dyson's Cordless Stick Vacuum lineup. I needed something that would work on tile floors, rugs, carpet, and needed it to be good at picking up animal hair. I concluded that all of Dyson's options have the same internal specifications and power...the only difference is the attachments that come with each one. Originally I wanted the V6 Animal since I have a dog, but I was unwilling to pay the $100 difference simply for two attachments. Then, BB had the V6 Motorhead as their "Deal of the Day" for under $300 so I figured I would go for it. I am extremely pleased with my purchase and have no complaints so far! I know other reviewers may complain about the battery life, but it's perfectly fine for my small apartment and I haven't run out of juice in each individual use yet. The first time I used it, the V6 Motorhead picked up a crazy amount of hair/dirt/who knows what else and it made me feel much better about the quality of my new vac vs. what I had been using. On another note: most of the attachments are for sale individually so they can be bought later. Overall, this is a great item if you're willing to spend the $ on it...I would wait for it to go on sale before committing though!

This is a great vacuum. You get what you pay for with this. I feel that it was very expensive, and I didn't enjoy the cost, but what I got I am very happy with. Being that there is no cord, it makes vacuuming very easy and very quick. It's suck is too powerful for one of my rugs so one downside is that it can't switch heights that I am aware of but every where else it's top notch.

Wow. So I'll start out by saying this is my first real vacuum purchase. I'm only 21 (can't believe how excited I was to be buying a vacuum), so buying a vacuum probably doesn't seem like it should be on my top things to do. But it was. My girlfriend and I didn't have a deep cleaning vacuum, and we have two cats currently. Let's just say the carpets were getting very dirty, especially after 6 months of no vacuuming. I had had enough. Went into Best Buy considering any one of the Dyson's or Shark's. I ended up with this Dyson for two reasons: the fact that it is cordless was a huge plus for me, just recharge the battery and use when I need to was a great convenience, and the other was due to the fact that the next model up (Animal) only had two extra attachments for another $100. Wasn't worth it to me. So after owning it for a week, here is my outlook: PROS -Amazing suction power (has picked up everything from cat food to cat hair, no problem) -Intense suction power with MAX mode enabled (3x suction roughly) -Super lightweight -Well constructed, supercompact design (easy storage) -Cordless design -Great maneuverability, easy to control -Easy removing dust container CONS -Battery lasts roughly 16 minutes on a full charge, roughly 5 on MAX mode -Emptying the container can get messy at times -Cleaning the vacuum can sometimes be a little messy, see above I can't believe at how much this little vacuum can accomplish. It's able to do so much with so little. I will go out and say that if I owned a house, I don't think this would replace an actual full-upright vacuum, due to the shorter batter life. Overall, I'm highly impressed. I'm trying to get everyone I know to buy one!

We have had this for over a month now and I have never been happier with a vacuum. I have an 11 and 8 year old and they are constantly offering to use it because it's so great. The best part is, it's light enough for them to carry upstairs to their bedrooms and sweep without my help at all. I have a 3 year old white lab and dark floors, hair shows constantly. We use to sweep it with a broom everyday, not anymore! This is amazing. I have never had the battery run out on me and had to wait for it to charge. I just keep it on the charger constantly and use it and plug it back in. I swept my entire basement, my huge couch and the basement steps with no problems. Highly recommended! And it's not even just the convenience of a light-weight, cordless vacuum. It is the most powerful vacuum I've ever owned!
