    Amazing vacuum! No regrets, worth every penny. Your floors and carpet will be spotless especially because the vacuum tells how clean everything is!

    After having a Kirby for almost 18 years the Dyson has been a welcome change. Light weight easy to move around and great attachments. Only thing I would say needs improvement is the suction in the short attachments and the battery life

    It’s a bit heavy. I wish you could use one attachment for floors and carpet and that the carpet attachment also had a light

    Just bought it, but the older version that we had worked great for over 3 years. It it stop working took back to store and they gave me a store credit and got this newer version. Hopefully it will last more than 3 years this time if not to to worry bought the 5 year warranty again.

    Awful: the wheels literally fell off within days

    Never again Dyson, and never again Best Buy. Hafeez, the manager of Best Buy on Elston in Chicago was practically giddy to report that unless i bought the protection plan on a $1,000 vacuum my only recourse is to continue to search for a human at Dyson to help me. Big box stores serve little value anymore other than padding profits through extended warrenties. My dad always said, if a company makes a good product (as Dyson claims they do) an extended warrenty is a waste of money. I’ve always supported big box stores because I assumed they supported the community and their employees. They just reduce employees to delivering bad news on bad policies. So sad.
