Customer Ratings & Reviews

The vacuum works great, but is very heavy. I wish the cord was retractable.

Made this purchase after the shark stick vacuum I had stopped working. Wanted to go with an Upright Vacuum and researched one with strong suction power; as that was lacking on my previous vacuum. To my amazement this vacuum is not only powerful but it maneuvers just as swift as my stick with a little weight to it and picks up trap dirt in my high pile carpet efficiently. Love this purchase! Worth it!

This vacuum has been a life-saving upgrade ever since I first purchased it. When the pandemic first started, I spent a lot of time at home. After almost a year of living alone, I decided to adopt two kittens. My apartment quickly became filled with pet hair, treats, and scattered litter. I knew I had to invest in a durable machine and I settled on the Animal 3 based on reviews. I have absolutely no regrets. If you take care of the vacuum, it will perform for years. I highly recommend!

Picks up all dog hair suction is amazing! Not as loud as other vacuums I have 2 GSDs and it doesn’t even struggle picking up the hair I have hard wood floors and it’s the best vacuum !! Brush off or on feature is amazing

I have appreciated having this for my carpet. (I foster and have two resident cats.)

Loving the animal 3. I had the animal 2 (I think, it was 7 years old), and I feel like Dyson has fixed some issues from the last version. My old one, getting the wand back in was ALWAYS a battle...to the point that sometimes I had to put myself in timeout before attempting to get it back in. Not with this one. Goes back in every time without a problem! Also, now there are levels for hardwood vs rug. I will tell you, the hardwood setting is LOW but perfect for that. You just better make sure you raise it up to move to area rugs. Lots of suction! Also, I don't know if I didn't put it on the animal 2, but the animal 3 now has a spot to hold your attachments. Really happy with this purchase!

It is pretty powerful. We are happy with our choice. Only thing you may want to be careful is its weight. It is a little heavy.

Cleans thoroughly. Is heavier than a stick vacuum. Empties easier than other vacuums. Using the wand is awkward.

Dyson works like a charm! Have had several and love the cleaning power (especially for cleaning up my Yellow Lab's hair) and ease of use. Best Buy had my item ready for pickup in thirty minutes!

This was an excellent value for the money. Dyson products are all overpriced, but in this instance, I got a great deal at Best Buy. I was able to order it online, so it was ready when I arrived for easy pickup. The vacuum has great suction and cleans well, but it is a little heavy to push around.

I like this vaccume because it can literally suck anything off. Makes me feel satisfied and helps me blow off so steam

Customer service was outstanding. The sales representative were curtious and knowledgeable of all vacuum products. He even helped to obtain a 20% discount by becoming an best buy elite member. Since having used my new vacuum, the suction is strong and the set up was very simple. This was sold an an affordable price.

This is a great vacuum. Strong and cleans well. It is quite heavy though. Also, the hose is a little stiff

We got this to replace a Dyson Stick. One of my kids broke the stick one so we figured we go back to heavy duty. Well this one is really heavy, like seriously hard to push sometimes. It gives me a workout for sure and lets off a lot of heat!! The room gets hot while vacuuming. Overall a good vacuum, just wasn’t expecting it to be so heavy.

Consistently a superior product. Easy to use and maintain. This is my fourth over twenty years. First one was exhausted. Second and third ran off with kids. Have tried less expensive and they couldn’t keep up with pets. Longer reaching cord than previous. Best brush in this generation.

Dyson Ball Animal 3 did an amazing job picking up my 2 dogs fur (German Shepherd and Border Collie) off the carpet. The carpet looks new again. The down sides of this high-quality vacuum were the high price and heavy weight. I would recommend this product.

Overall this vacuum is great. The hair removal veins in the head work wonders. I’ve used the vacuum multiple times are there really is very minimal hair wrapped around the brush. The suction is amazing it has no problems picking up debris on high pile carpet. The cord is very long too. Which can be annoying. If you’re really wanting a cordless I would go with that. But if you don’t mind the cord this is definitely worth the price.

This is an excellent vacuum with adjustable suction settings. We bought this vacuum to replace a 15 year old Dyson which still works. You can’t go wrong with Dyson products.

Our original Dyson Animal finally gave out. The bearings in the brush head gave out, the brushes locked up and started heating up due to the friction. This works very much like the original except it cleans it's own brush as you vacuum. We have 3 long hairs animals in our house and 1 long haired dog. So far it has more powerful suction than the older Dyson and a longer cord. We are happy with it so far.
