    Other than being very heavy, the Dyson Animal is great for picking up dog hair.

    We love this new addition to our Dyson collection. We had one finally give out after 8 years and purchased this model since we have a ton of fur babies. We love the attachment that allows us to brush our pets & suck up all the pet hair. The vacuum itself is powerful and is doing a better job than our old Dyson Animal machines.

    The Dyson Ball Animal 2 lives up to the claim that it's a powerful vacuum. Thanks to the massive ball design that gives a next-generation look. The powerful upright deep cleans carpets with ease, glides across hard floors, and has effective attachments to clean stairs, crevices, and upholstery.

    I’ve had a Dyson uprights in the past, and my one complaint with them was that the suction was so powerful, when you vacuumed a high pile carpet, the brush would bog down.  The new head design has three settings, one of which allows air flow in so that you can vacuum high pile carpet with ease. Best vacuum on the market. Period.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Works great, if you want a really good deep clean on your carpets this is the one to get. Pulled so much more out after one cleaning than the others we’ve had. And it still pulled more after having the carpet professionally cleaned by carpet cleaners a few days before

    I bought my Dyson Ball Animal 3 at the Tacoma WA location, and suction power is delivers is phenomenal. I was shocked on all the dirt, and dust is picked up. The De-tangling feature on the head brush is amazing, have not had one problem with it. Overall excellent upright vacuum machine for people who have large houses with lots of carpet.

    This thing sucks!

    So well. It's really impressive! I had no idea my 13 year old vacuum worked so poorly until I bought this thing. Normally, I can vacuum my 600 sf of carpet with one canister of my old vacuum. After using the Dyson, I had to empty the canister 3 times in one pass! Gross. Now, the floor is continually much cleaner as we vacuum once a week and fill up the canister only once every use. I'm not sure the "extra" is worth it over the standard version as we don't use the extra tools but it is nice to have them around. Using the tools is a snap as the handle unplugs easily and quickly gets to work. The 2 things I don't care for are the amount of plastic and the kickstand. Despite being impressively engineered it still feels kind of cheap due to the plastic. It would be heavy with aluminum parts (e.g., buttons, connections, etc.) but I would pay the premium as I don't mind the weight. The kickstand only works to keep it upright when it's not moving. If you're moving it the kickstand usually pops up and the head falls. Having a button to engage the kickstand wouldn't be a big deal. It's annoying but not a big deal. Overall, I'm really impressed. I would buy another Dyson any day.

    This is our 4th Dyson in 20 years. So every 5 years they give up on you. Still buying them because until then they are great to use. Except this one. Hard to maneuver, heavy and cheap looking. Suction is good. I will give this to my college kid and get something else for myself.

    I have a 110lb husky and he sheds so much. I would brush him a few times a day and still have white tumbleweeds in the house. Now with the pet attachment the amount of fur has been significantly reduced. The only down side is the handles plastic feels cheap.
