    It’s a great vacuum. Really dislike how the head/brush roller always seem to click out.

    This is a BEAST

    This is a BEAST of an ANIMAL Dyson Animal 3 has got it right this can deep clean the carpet or other floors. With 5 attachments runs on a roller ball and is bagless. I have an older vacuum and a smart vacuum they don't clean like this. I have a light shaggy carpet and this has brought it back to the fluffy way we bought it. I run the smart vacuum about 3 time a week and this Animal was getting a deep clean even after i ran my other vacuum. The Dyson is heavy there is some effort is using the vacuum on the carpet but the end result is worth it. you can see the Difference in the carpet. The 5 attachment are great they even have a dog brush witch is very helpful. Another is what they call a Tangle-Free Turbine Tool I have not seen this before but it runs great on the couches Keeps the microfiber clean. Also gets all the hair off of it. There is a long wand with the ability to use the bush that is attached to it clean the corners or hard to reach spots. Also a stairs tool witch is always great to have i don't need to lug ths up and down my stairs it is heavy. Its nice not to have to have a bag just open the trash and pop open the bottom of the dirt trap and that's it. the hose on this is a little stiff hope it gets a little better with time. The bad part is you can only put 1 tool on this you have to put the others away i would like to have them all when I'm cleaning instead of going back to get what i need. I has 3 levels for the head of the vacuum to adjust for what area your cleaning. The colors are nice this isn't very big so it wont take up a lot of space. The power cord is 35ft long that works just great. Overall this is a great vacuum i will enjoy seeing my carpet as fluffy as when i had it installed.

    Worst vacuum I've ever used. Unless you're wanting traction for your back or shoulder surgery, dont get this vacuum. Handle is wobbly, and not strong enough for vacuum. Hose is ridiculously hard to use.

      Hi there, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry that you've found the Ball Animal 3 to be disappointing, thus far in your use. It is a heavier, full-size vacuum so it does have a bit more weight to it. We'd be happy to go over your machine more in-depth with you, or help with any other questions you may have. Feel free to get in touch with us at askdysonUS@dyson.com.

      Best wishes,
