    I have had Dyson vacuums for many years . This Animal 2 is the best yet . With 270 AW of suction power this vacuum exceeds all others including the Cinetic models ( at 180 AW ) .

    Love it on my tile flooring and carpet, only issue I have is with one of my area rugs it doesn’t flow over easily. I’m assuming it’s theway the area rug is piled. But all in all it’s a very good vacuum.

    We have a mix of hardwood, carpet and tile in our home and the Animal 2 has worked great on every surface. Simple to use and worth the money.

    I love the powerful suction of this vacuum. I wish it would have a level change for floor and different thickness carpets. On the area rug the suction is so strong it’s a workout to do it.

    Not as good as the first Dyson Animal I owned. However, this one weighs a lot less and still has powerful suction. It just feels cheap. As long as it cleans, I’m good!

    This Dyson replaces one we've had for 15years. We've always been pleased with the old one, but the new one clearly out performs it. Hope it lasts as long.

    Great vacuum for low surfaces, very minor complain

    I'm not sure if I got a defective product or they all come like this, but my vacuum seems to heat up my carpet very quickly and makes a few squeaking noises. Not the biggest deal as long as the vacuum works, but the fact that I have to question it is enough to knock a star. That and the fact that i think the quality of the accessories lacks a bit. Regarding its main purpose, the vacuum is excellent at picking up small items for low surfaces though I probably wouldn't use it on a shaggy rug or carpet as it is very low to the floor. Still, im a dyson fanatic and probably can't switch brands after this.

    5th one I have owned. Clunky -had to remove parts to make it work. That was advised by the Dyson Service department. Handle always releasing from the ball. It is a good thing this wasn't my first Dyson purchase as it would have been my last for the money spent.

      Hi Aimee, this is Krystal with Dyson. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on the Dyson Ball Animal 2. If you are attempting to move the machine while not in use, it is meant to be picked up by the cyclone handle and not tilted back and rolled on the back wheels. We would value the opportunity to address this in more detail. Please contact us at [email protected] with your serial number, description of issue or concern and your contact information and we will be happy to help.

      Best Wishes,
      Krystal

    Unhappy sweeper!

    I was thrilled when I bought this. Used it on carpet and was disgusted to see what was left after vacuuming with my old sweeper. Two days later got new Ultra Soft Carpet, a good brand, and can’t get it to move. It has no way to raise the level for a carpet that is more plush. I could use it on my hardwood floor, but that’s a small portion of my home. Who wants to have to switch between two sweepers, not me. I would love to give this one star due to my frustration and apparent waste of money. But gave it three because where it works, it works really well.

      Hello, this is Kelly with Dyson. Thank you for taking the time to write your review on the Dyson Ball Animal 2 Upright vacuum cleaner. The Dyson Ball Animal 2 features Dyson ball technology, which allows for easy navigation with the turn of a wrist. The vacuum's key components have been engineered to fit inside of the ball itself, giving this machine it's sleek, streamlined profile. Dyson Ball Animal 2 features 270 air watts of suction power, making it one of our most powerful vacuums. The cleaner head on this machine is self-adjusting, meaning that it raises and lowers to seal in suction across all floors.

      I am very sorry to hear that your Dyson is hard to push on your new carpet. This may be the result of the suction forming an air tight seal between the cleaner head and the floor. That being said, We would value the opportunity to assist with your machine, to help ensure your Dyson is working properly. Please feel free to contact us directly at [email protected]. We look forward to your correspondence.

      Best wishes,
      Kelly
