    Light Duty Dyson

    I have a full size dyson vac but wanted to stop having to drag it up and down the stairs. This vac is lightweight which is good on one hand, but also doesn't have the weight to hold its self up while you propel it. What that means is you will be pushing this vac harder to move it over a carpet. It does have smaller head which gets into tighter spots than a fullsize vac. It works great and easy to push/maneuver on hardwood floors; works really great across my oriental carpets; works ok on my regular carpets. Other pluses: Long cord Other minuses: the beater brush seems to be made of very soft eyelash like bristles. THis works good on hardwood but I wonder how much "beating" its doing on the carpets. I suppose it won't be wearing out the carpets. You have to flip the wand around to use the suction tube for dusting the ceiling---a bit awkward. So if you have a big house---this is going to be too light duty for you---get a full size Dyson vac. For an apartment with hardwood floors with a few big room rugs this would be ideal.

    I bought this vacuum 1 month ago. So far, Small Ball is great: lightweight, compact, easy on the eyes. It makes vacuuming large areas a breeze and is really easy to maneuver in smaller spaces. It picked up all the dust, dirt, and hair off the carpet and porcelain floor so easily. I like the dummy proof setup with mainly pictures to help you. My only drawback is that the quick release for disposal is not so quick. The multiple cyclones at the top of the vacuum form a tight space between the container itself so it's pretty hard to get ALL the dirt out without a contraption (I used a bamboo skewer). Otherwise, happy with the purchase.

    This tiny thing has a lot of suction, but you do have to use some muscle to push it across your carpet. I also like that it is very small and takes up half the space my old vacuum did, while cleaning a lot better. I've only had it a couple of months, but it has sucked more dirt and dust up than my old one did in a year.

    This is the first I bought Dyson product! It’s for real for its claims. I recommend this for smaller areas to clean since it’s their smallest version. Easy to use! Over all performance I give 5 stars!

    We were looking for something that is lightweight but still powerful and we are pretty happy with our purchase as it is exactly what we needed. It is easy to carry and clean after. I only wish Dyson puts more accesories with the initial purchase as we needed to purchase quite a few more tools additionally. Overall we are quite happy with the purchase.

    Providing convenience & power in a small package, this vacuum is perfect for my beautiful brand new hardwood floors and keeps my upholstery fresh too. Its compact size fits perfectly into my new down-sized life.

    This upright has better power than the animal. Only thing is I have to detach and assemble machine to get under low sitting furniture. Also sometimes the Handel does not stay licked in place.

    This vacuum has great suction and goes between wood floors and carpet effortlessly; however, it is heavier than I thought it would be. One of the things I got it for was to vacuum my stairs which are carpeted. The weight us the only negative.

    Needed a vacuum for quick cleanups before showing a house. This one was powerful but light and easily maneuverable. Does very well in the kitchen as well as on carpet. Best part was Best Buys price match guarantee which took $100 off the Best Buy price.

    When our old Dyson began to be too worn to use we started looking for a new one to replace it. We found a good price on an older model on sale and made the purchase. It works very well, and we're glad we got it.

    Overall great vaccume. I was torn between the small ball and the regular ball because I don't have a lot of space, and while there are a few features that were sacrificed for the size, overall I can't complain. it's a dyson!

    Works great and picks up well. Only issue is there isn’t much clearance when using on hard floors so it pushes a larger item instead of sucking up

    This is a very compact and light vacuum. I think I due to the size, you give up a little bit of suction. Not as powerful as I wanted, but overall a good vacuum.

    We love how well this vacuum works, but a piece of plastic broke off easily when we purchased it which was a bummer. Even super glue wouldn't hold it back together

    Works amazing, minor issues

    Let’s start out with saying we have definitely used this vaccum. REALLY used every day for a week. We had fleas in our apartment and it is helping get rid of them. The vaccum has amazing power and is easy to use once you get use to the different buttons/handles. Easy to clean. My complaint is that it is not as rugged or tough as the previous models and I have a crack in the side of the cyclone part, as well as the trigger to release the dirt out has broken just from lightly tapping it on the dumpster to make sure all the contents were removed.
