    I really like this vacuum. I was hesitant at first because it is so expensive, but I am happy I bought it. It lets me see dirt and dog hair I can't see without the laser.

    I love this vacuum. I’ve had dysons before, but this one is by far my favorite. The fluffy optic head helps me clean my floors sooo much better. I have 4 cats, and this makes a world of a difference. The large bin and auto feature truly make cleaning a better experience.

    Great motor and attachments. The wheel broke on the second use for the carpet attachment. Dyson replaced this so all is good. Great experience overall, giving 4/5 because of the brittle plastic.

    Unfortunately had to return - loud grinding noise

    Today I purchased the gen5outsize. Right off the bat it made a really loud, grinding type noise. I've had multiple Dyson's through the years and have never heard this kind of noise before. I figured I had a defective model so I went back to Best Buy and exchanged it. After returning home the replacement vacuum made the exact same noise as well. I did some research online because I thought it was odd that both of the vacuums had the same issue. Turns out the hair removal vanes, which are plastic, push into the brush roll during forward passes. Sadly, I had to return the second one and came home empty handed. I noticed most of the new models have the hair removal vanes so I'm afraid to purchase another Dyson. I don't know if I'm just unlucky purchasing two vacuums having the same issue or if it's a design flaw. Had the gen5outsize not had the hair removal vanes I definitely would've kept it. I actually thought about trying to remove them myself but decided against it because had something gone wrong I wouldn't have been able to return it. Extremely disappointed in this model.

    This product is very noisy and hard to push on carpets no matter what setting you put. It's not user friendly especially when it comes to pushing it it's not easily pushable.

    Having owned a V11 Animal before this, it's much better than those standard size options. I appreciate having an on/off button instead of the power trigger on the standard as well.
