I have had a Dyson vacuum for the past 20 years. It has never had to have anything replaced until now. I decided to purchase anew one instead of getting the old one repaired.
I purchased the Dyson Ball Animal. I do not have pets but I have long hair. Love the fact that I do not have to clean the roller anymore. The suction on this is so much more powerful then my old Dyson. My rugs look brand new when I am finished vacuuming. This is very easy to handle. I have actually given a demonstration to two of my neighbors who are looking to purchase a new vacuum.

This is the 3rd Dyson Ball Animal vacuum we have purchased. The other 2 had hose breaks that reduced the suction. Both were donated to be repaired & then used for charitable purposes. No complaints on them as they did the job for a long time.
The new one seems to have even more powerful suction and does an amazing job of getting dog hair out of carpet. Definitely recommend.

We weren't in the market for a new vacuum, but then our 9y/o Dyson brush stopped spinning, so we had to figure something out. The review in this one were good and while we couldn't get it in store, we were able to get it delivered next day. It even arrived early in the morning so we could do what we needed to do!
This will suck the dust out of the ceiling of the floor below ya!

This is a great vacuum. It is well constructed and highly functional. It is easy to maneuver around furniture. It has the suction of a shop vac and the attachments are great for those hard to reach areas. I like the extra long cord that you can unravel just what need. It is also easy to clear anything that may get caught up in it. I appreciate the filter that is washable. I would recommend this vacuum.

I love Dyson animal vacuums! My first one is over 20 years old and my Dyson Animal Vacuum 2 lasted 17 1/2 years. When the Dyson Animal Vacuum 3 went on sale, I purchased it. Free shipping too. Easy to assemble. It is the best model yet. It picks up so much dirt and dust from the carpet and floor. My floors look amazingly clean. The hose thoroughly cleans the stairs. I read reviews where people complained it was heavy to lift and push. I don’t find that to be the case at all. I push the vacuum easily and it’s not heavy. However, I do CrossFit four days a week. It also has a long cord so I don’t have to switch as many outlets when I go to each room. I recommend this vacuum! Watch Best Buy’s website for it to go on sale too.

Machine is great but design could be better

Man, I want to give this vacuum 5 stars but can’t due to a manor design flaw.
I didn’t understand some of the reviews when they mentioned the handle and how awkward it is to use. We had a Shark vacuum and had been wanting to upgrade to Dyson.
Well, we purchased this Dyson Animal 3 and immediately I was impressed! The suction on this thing is insane. Has three different levels and on the bare floor I feel like it is going to pull up the laminate flooring. Which for crumbs, small things, and dog hair it’s perfect.
On carpet, it’s great as well. I have no complaints on the bottom roller, suction, movement, etc.
However, this hose that is connected to the back of the vacuum is HORRIBLE! I wish they had a machine locally to see a demonstration but they didn’t and I trusted the brand name.
Who engineered this part of the vacuum? Please tell them to find another job. The hose is long but ZERO FLEXIBILITY. I can’t describe in words but just know if you want to get in corners, around the house it is a difficult task.
The picture you see of the lady smiling, getting in corners, aint no way she was happy with this machine for that job. You have to hold the vacuum or maneuver it a weird way so the hose doesn’t bend. If the hose bends even the slightest, it will lose suction.
I wish I would have understood the reviews talking about this because I would have upgraded to a different style.
Look, overall the machine itself is great. If you want to get your carpets cleaner than before, pick up pet hair with ease from multiple surfaces, it’s a beast. It’s just that hose design and flexibility is awful.
Wish I could trade it in for an upgrade!

I've heard that Dyson is top quality. A little more than I wanted to put into an upright, but BestBuy had a great price on one and I bought it. This vacuum is awesome. I have an old central vacuum that is about 50 years old and is ready to be replaced. But I don't think I will. I think I will buy another one of these for the upstairs. I vacuumed the carpet, hardwood, and rugs. They seemed clean. Then I vacuumed all the same ones and this machine got so much more car hair and just dirt. Never clogged, but I was shocked at how much my central vacuum is NOT picking up.
The only cons I have is the weight and the attached hose. The weight is what it is. I can let that go just because of how well it vacuums and is not very loud. I figured to get what I need and desire, it probably comes with weight.
The attached vacuum hose works very well, but is not as easy to use as some. It is stiff I have a feeling I'm going to crack the hose. Not the best attachment, but I'm going to do a little research to make sure I'm not doing anything incorrectly so NOT to crack the hose.
Instructions are lacking in words. The pictures work, but there's a little more interpretation in the pictures that words could have assisted in better. Again, not a big deal to warrant a lower rating.

This is my second Dyson. My first one lasted thirteen years, still works but less suction.
This new one is unbelievably powerful. The quality is superior than anything out there. Its very easy to use and has many improvements over the original Animal Vacuum. The new one has settings for different carpets and floor. Its easier to use the vacuum hose and return it to the correct position. It is a little harder to push on some carpets and its only because of the powerful suction that gets carpets totally clean. Totally awesome Vacuum.

GURLLLL.... Oh, I am just so excited to pour some tea on this upgraded hoover! I absolutely adore Dyson products; my home is always covered in fur from my dogs, so I needed something that could do a deep clean. I had tried several pet vacuums before that were lackluster, but this bad boy is a game-changer! This thing will suck the quills off of a porcupine. Two thumbs up, a twist and a twirl for this Dyson Vacuum. Two thumbs up, a twist and a twirl for this Dyson Vacuum.

Animal 3 Dyson Corded Vacuum

We needed a corded vacuum, as our cordless Dyson is 5 years old or so and is starting to lose some steam. It’s certainly not as convenient, but there is a ton of power on this Animal 3 Dyson. The amount of dirt, dust, and cat hair that piled up from our carpet was unbelievable.
It’s heavy, but moves around pretty good. Easy to empty canister just like on the cordless Dyson. It’s good to have this vacuum, even if we decide to get a cordless. Hard to imagine anything having a stronger pull than this.
