    Ordering and delivery were very smooth and without a problem. The dyson works better on the dense carpet in our home.

    This is the third Dyson I have owned and the first time I have ever been disappointed in a Dyson. I have an area carpet that is very short napped. When I set the manual height adjustment (problem one. Height adjustment use to be automatic) the suction is so great I literally can not push or pull the vacuum across the rug. If I set it for a high pile rug like a shag I can at least pull it across the carpet with a lot of effort. I should not have to fight this hard to use this unit and it has remained this tough so it's not like the unit had to be broken in or something. Problem 2 is because of the suction when I use the hose I have to fight to use it and it pulls the unit over. Basically the hose is not usable anymore. Problem 3 they have reduced the width of the brush head so now you have to make more passes and do more work to cover the same area. The only good thing is the pet hair removal design does work very well. I have 3 long haired dogs and so far no pet hair on the roller brush. I am past the return point so I am stuck with this unit. I'll probably use it only for my tile floors and be forced to buy a shark for the carpet areas.
