    Excellent suction, especially to pick up hair, whether human or animal! Maneuvers extremely well! So easy to empty the canister with one press of a button, poof! all the contents in the canister are gone! Love that it is corded so I never have to run out of battery! Go ahead and give this vacuum a try, you will not be disappointed I promise!

    This is the perfect vacuum for our labrador retriever owning family. Works perfect to keep the hair at bay on our wood floors and on carpet/rugs as well.

    Had a previous model of the Animal, and it lasted around nine years. This one seems to have more suction and the beater bar works amazingly well as it's a different/better design - it pulled SO much dirt and dust out of the carpet the first time we used it we were shocked.

    I have the original animal upright and a newer Dyson compact. Bought this and it cleaned up an unbelievable amount 1 day after using the compact in the same rooms. The suction is unreal and the new tangle free head even made Persian carpet fringe a stress free event. Highly recommend for anyone, especially a pet owner.

    Ran our Shark vacuum over the living room floor a few times. Then, whipped this bad boy out. The amount of hair and dust it pulled out of the carpet was unbeliavable. It fees like it suction cups the ground. Its a beast…just buy it.

    This vacuum worked amazing, cleaning carpet and picking up dog hair. However, I feel the accessories are a bit cheaply made and to attach attachments to the wand seemed flimsy & inconvenient. As I said, it picked up great.But for the price, I feel like it should be better made

    In the best way possible. I have the V10 cordless for hard to reach places, and this beast that does all the heavy lifting. Only con is that its a little heavy for stairs, and the extending hose is a little unfriendly to use. The noise level is much better than most other options on the market. Would reccomend to anyone with pets!

    [Employee of bestbuy] The last Dyson I bought was about 20 years ago. That one died and this seemed like the perfect replacement. Great suction, they extended the length of the hose, changed the ball to more of a plastic than rubber so hair doesn't stick to it. Love my Dyson!

    Extremely thorough vacuum cleaner. Picks up all of the hair from my two dogs on the carpet. I have small kids who play in the carpet, so I want to make sure it is clean for them at all times. This vacuum cleaner helps do the job. my only complaint is that it doesn’t handle stairs very well, even with the manual cleaner.

    This is absolutely the worst appliance I have ever purchased, It is extremely heavy and I can only use it on the highest carpet setting. The hose with the attachments is short and is restricting. Expensive piece of plastic! This replaced a 30 year old self propelled Hoover which I loved.
