What a great deal.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This vacuum was on sale for half price. So not only did I get a great machine but it was a great value. Works fine on any surface. You must assemble it but it's quick and easy.

Great vacuum.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the Dyson - Ball Animal upright to use in my home with two dogs and a cat. I already had a Dyson - Ball Animal Upright for I think 13 years and it cleans so well that I was as happy to find this newer and more power upgrade. I Love the fact that I don't have to buy bags for the vacuum and I can empty after each use. I brought the original Dyson to the office, to keep that carpet clean. Lets just call it a win - win situation. I recommend this vacuum. I am going to look for it to be on sale again, so I can buy one for my son and his family.

Excellent Vacation Rental Vaccun
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this vacuum cleaner for a vacation rental property & my property manager says it’s amazing as to what it picks up with dog hair and average dust / dirt. Renters typically do not go out if their way to clean regularly as it’s not their home.

Impressed but not amazed
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have 2 shedding dogs and 3 long haired cats. The one dog is a German Shepherd and has 4 inch hair continuously flying all around him. We have used a Kenmore Progressive for 12 years and it began to wear out. My wife could not vacuum the carpet or rugs with it as it was too heavy and hard to use. The other issues were that it fell over because it was not designed well for using the solid floor tool and it was so heavy that we purchased a small vacuum for the stairs. After some time, I started doing the vacuuming because the Kenmore hurt my wife's back and wore out her arm. The Kenmore was very powerful and did an excellent job vacuuming our house. It was far, far superior to the Hoover we had before. We decided on the Dyson Animal after a demo at the local Best Buy. It was light, powerful, and had the really cool extension for stairs. I have used it now for several weeks and can make an honest assessment. It is more powerful than the Kenmore. It is easier to use and more versatile. I can vacuum faster and with less effort for the most part. I do like the longer power cord and the longer extension for the stairs. It is easy to empty but do note that the trash can should be mostly empty when you do or you will get stuff in the room. We have about 2000 square feet of space that I vacuum. It is a little more than half hardwood with 6 smaller thinner rugs and one large thick rug. The bedrooms and stairs are carpeting. The Dyson does a great job on the hard wood and the carpet. Note that we have modern lower pile carpet and it handles it well. The ball rolls and allows for sharp turns and good angles and it is very clean. The extension tools are great on the furniture and in the small, harder to reach areas. It is easy to transition to extension from major floor vacuuming but the hose is a bit stiff and hard to manage. I assume this is because it is still new. The large thick rug is hard to vacuum. The Dyson pulls so hard that it bogs into the rug so I must make quick work of it and not stop to prevent the floor brushes from shutting off. The smaller thinner rugs are about 3/8 inch thick. The Dyson sucks them up and shuts off the brushes if we do not have someone hold the corners. If I shut the floor brushes off, then we do not get the animal hair off. So it is either a 2 person job or an awkward 1 person straddle and push. I should get a video of that process as it is quite funny to see. When the brushes shut down, we must pull the rug out and reset the brush by pressing the brush on switch twice. Not a big issue but worth mentioning. After using the Kenmore metal beast, the Dyson does seem much lighter but also not as sturdy. This could be a perception but I will only know after several years. I would recommend this vacuum to others. It is impressive but not as amazing as I had expected it to be. Vacuuming with it is not heavenly but it is efficient and a hard working vacuum.

Excellent cleaning results
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have owned several different brands over the years, and always wanted to try a Dyson. Just help back due to the price. Look for Best Buy Specials! So impressed with the cleaning results . We have a cat and dog, and the amount of hair it collects compared to the previous vacuum is amazing.
