Incredible!,

"What did I do without a Dyson all this time? I was skeptical at first because of the cost but it is worth every penny and more. It is lightweight, easy to use, easy to dump the dirt. I have a vacuum upstairs and one downstairs - this has eliminated both. And I love the long cord.Vaccums close to the wall and made my carpet look new. And I have 1 cat, 2 dogs and 2 guinea pigs and two toddlers so you know this is a top notch quality vacuum. LOVE IT! Highest recommendations."

Incredible Suction,

"This has got to be the most fantastic vacuum I've ever used. When I first got it, I couldn't believe how much dirt was in my carpets, even though I had recently vacuumed with my old vacuum cleaner. Even more amazing, is that each week I use it, it continues to pick up so much dirt and dust. It works very well at picking up animal hair (hence its name, Animal). I would recommend buying a Dyson to anyone. I don't often get this excited over a vacuum cleaner! But you've GOT to try one!"

"This vacuum is AMAZING! I have 4 cats, and my previous vacuum would get clogged several times, during each vacuuming session. But not the Dyson. You would be amazed (and grossed out) at all the hair, dust and other unknown items it sucks up! I wouldn't trade my dyson for any other vacuum in the world. The attachments are great, and so easy to use. Also, I love the fact that you can vacuum bare floors with it too, so when I'm vacuuming my carpet, I can switch it over to the bare floor setting and vacuum my bathroom and kitchen tile. I've recommened this to several people, including my sister. She bought one too, and loves it. In fact, the last family gathering she pulled out her Dyson and did a demo to our family!!"

Dyson DC 14,
October 8, 2008

"I have only had the Dyson DC 14 a few weeks so I can not comment on the durability therefore I gave it three stars.
I love this vacuum cleaner, I could not believe the amount of lint, dirt etc. that it picked up. I thought my rugs were clean until I used this vacuum. It weighs a little over 18 pounds and is a little heavy for me to take up and down the stairs, but thats where my husband comes in real handy. It is so easy to empty and the filter was easy to locate. I am so happy that I do not have to buy bags or filters, that was a big plus and helped to make my decision on purchasing this wonderful vacuum cleaner. I have already recommended the DC 14 to many of my friends and family members."

Works on my dog's 4" long hair,
September 15, 2008
"I recently purchased this vacuum after a long search. I have always like the looks of a dyson and the "never lose suction" aspect. My old vacuum aggetators burned up after two years of vacuuming up 4" long dog hair. I would clean the aggitators but it woudl always make its way to the end caps of the aggitators and start to melt inbetween there, which was not a pleasant smell. My old vacuum had four aggetators and this one has two. I find that cleaning these aggitators after each use is a lot easier and quicker than cleaning my old vacs aggitators. The handle/hose function is kind of acqward, but will be handy when I use it with the fan blade attachment. Emptying the container is really easy, but needs to be dumped into a large trash can not just a regular house one, makes a mess on the floor. Assembly was quick and easy and it takes up less room in my closet than my old one."
