    Tackles the mess of 3 kids and 4 animals with ease. Only complaint is that it doesn’t have a retractable cord. With paying this much on a vacuum, I would think that’d be standard.

    I LOVE this Dyson. We love on a small farm with A LOT of indoor and outdoor animals. We’re constantly tracking the outdoors into the house - dirt, straw, feathers, grass, whatever. We brought out older dyson to camp and put this newer dyson to the test. 100%

    This is my second Dyson Animal vacuum and I really like it. The self cleaning feature for the rolling brush is an amazing feature! I love this vacuum and recommend it to anyone who has pet hair in their home.

    Amazing purchase. I can’t believe how much brighter my floors looked after using this! I don’t have pets but wanted the hair detangler so my hair wouldn’t get caught in the vacuum and sure enough it works!

    Dyson vacuums are always reliable and can handle things that will usually stress or wreck your vacuum. Mine was able to handle clumps of dog hair that have killed multiple other vacuums.

    This is a must buy! This vacuum was able to lift more dirt from my rug then my hoover vacuum! And this newer model has an adjustable suction head that all of Dyson models never had! Making even easier to clean from rug to floor ! Brilliant Dyson!

    Overpriced Junk

    This is the worst vacuum I have ever purchased. The vacuum is very difficult to get to stand in the upright position because it does not want to lock into position. Then when you try to move the unit falls out of the locked position. Also, the brush head assembly completely falls off the vacuum. This vacuum is an overpriced piece of junk. Save your money and the frustration do not purchase this Dyson

    Incredible machine. I have long hair that sheds often, this machine picked it up without issue, and I didn’t have to spend time trying to 7ntangle the roller. It’s a miracle. Thank you Dyson!

    Extremely Bad Design

    I had a Dyson vacuum that was wonderful but old so I bought this. The Dyson model is worthless IMO. I cannot push it even switching to bare floor on my carpet, suction is too strong. Only works when pulled backwards. Also the front part that has the bristles etc keeps falling off and is very hard to get back in place. This is a VERY poor design and my next vac will NOT be a Dyson. Save your $$ and walk away from this vacuum. Wouldn't send unless one star was picked-deserves ZERO stars

    I bought this vacuum because we had a Dyson before and it was probably the best vacuum cleaner we had ever purchased. I don’t think these new ball vacuum cleaners are as good as the old one, but it is still good.

    The best vacuum ever. So long as you use the correct settings like the instructions say, you shouldn’t have a problem with it being hard to push. You need to actively change the pile adjustment according to what floor your vacuuming.

    Overall very nice vacuum, does what it is supposed to do. Only glitch is that the pet hair seems to catch on one part of the debris basket which never happened with the previous model.
