    So far, so good! This vacuum has great suction! I would say, almost too good, it is difficult to vacuum the rugs even when raising the main part. But otherwise we really like it.

    The vacuum I never new.

    All I can say is wow. It really had a strong sucking power and picks up everything in its path. I did a test with my old shark vacuum and passed the Dyson after and was shocked at what it missed. The Dyson basically filled the dirt container with dirt and dust like it’s never been cleaned. It’s expensive and wish they didn’t premium charge but if you want clean then you have no choice.

    I've had trouble with my last few vacuums actually picking up dog hair and dust embedded into rugs. But the Dyson Ball Animal 3 doesn't have that issue. I've been able to easily pick up dog hair, dust, and other debris without damaging my hardwood floors. It is a little more difficult to push than I would like, but I'll take that trade off. I guess eventually I'll get buff arms as a trade off.

    My dog sheds alot!! I've been using it for a week and my house has never been cleaner! Super strong suction, the ball feature is great and allows for really simple maneuvering. My only criticism is the hose. It works great, but is a little clunky to use. I'm sure I'll get used to it cause it really does a great job!

    I used to have beyond stellar results with Shark that started nearly a decade ago. After our last two failed at the big text on the box indicating no brush wrap. Literally within the first use, I had to cut hair out. Each time got worse and worse until I finally decided to look beyond Shark. We have 4 shelties and 2 cats. Got the Dyson and the suction is unbelievable and the brush actually lives up to the hype, NO HAIR WRAP...

    I have Mohawk SmartStrand Silk carpet with a really high nap. I bought a Dyson vacuum that has a switch to move from high to low nap. With the high nap setting, I had to put my whole body into pushing it. I did some research and found this vacuum that was created specifically for Mohawk high nap carpets. Hands down, it's the best vacuum I've ever had.
