Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very good suction and very easy to use on all corners of every room.

This vacuum has great suction and easy to use minus the hose. The hose has great strength but lacks flexibility.

We've had the Dyson for a month and like it. It is very easy to handle around furniture and has good suction.

Great suction. Not heavy and does the job. Always a great product.

I have a large oriental rug that gets a lot of foot traffic and dog traffic when my daughter visits with her two dogs. Had this for a couple of weeks before I got around to unpackaging. I vacuumed after my maid service did their thing and WOW what a difference. Looked cleaner and pulled about 2 pounds of fine dirt and hair. Worth every penny.

Setup instructions, could have been better. Suction is extremely powerful. Easy to use on hardwood floors, and low pile carpet. Cannot be used on high pile carpet without removing the suction plate. (easy to do) Unfortunately the vacuum is somewhat heavy. It is quite a workout to use it. We primarily bought it for pet hair, and it work well for that purpose.

only used for 1 month, but so far it's done an excellent job cleaning our carpets and is easy to use.

This is a great vacuum for normal carpet. This is literally the strongest suction vacuum Dyson has and has picked up dog hair that I didnt even see. The reason for not giving 5 stars is that it will pick up runner rugs and it doesn't really do shag carpet. I was told by Dyson on the phone that it can damage your vacuum or carpet to use it on shag. Mine seems to be okay but it is almost impossible to move on the shag or runners.

I was in the market for a vacuum cleaner with good suction. After going through several vacuum cleaners, and after doing much research - I landed on the Dyson Ball. This machine is awesome when it comes to suction. My only difficulty is that it is very difficult to navigate and push. I may need to adjust my settings, but pushing this vacuum cleaner is a workout on my campus! I will continue playing around with it, but so far, I love it!!!

the Animal 2 is just amazing! I have had an older dyson for the last few years. The original dyson was pretty good, but the Animal 2 just took everything to a different level.

Nice long cord. Good suction power. A little more expensive but good value for the money.

a great vacuum. very good suction power and ease of cleaning out the dust chamber

After assembling the new vacuum, my wife and I used our previous Hoover (which has admittedly seen better days) on the carpet of one of our and followed this up with the Dyson. We were impressed with the amount of residual dust and debris that was still picked up by the Dyson. The ball design makes it easy to maneuver. The accessory suctioning when vacuum is placed upright was surprising at first, but is practical.

Outstanding suction for picking up dog hair. The stair and couch attachment is a great addition.

I have had a Dyson for 6 years, this new version is half the noise and twice the ease

Very easy to use, light weight and cleans the carpet quickly

Bought this to replace an Original Dyson Ball Animal. The old unit died not from age but was in a car that got into an accident. I thought the new units improvements were more gimmick than real. Until I used it. Everything I like but even more suction. Animal hair is no problem as the original (yes I own 3 very hairy dogs). And all the extra attachments from the original work fine.

Great vacuum so far, suctions amazingly well. Upgraded from the yellow dyson. Have gone through plenty of vacuums from Hoover to shark. This by far is the best one for now. Does need cleaning often just incase you have kids and pets of course. Heavier than the model below this but still isn’t bad.

this is one of the best vacuum I ever own. it sucks so hard it even loose up the thick carpet

Not a bad vacuum for carpets but not great on hard surface (it shoots loose dirt everywhere). And extremely annoying is that it does not have a retractable cord.
