Customer Ratings & Reviews

My husband and I have purchased cheaper vacuums for years and decided to spend a bit extra to invest in a quality vacuum that lasts. The first room - we were immediately sold and kicking ourselves for not investing sooner! We both have long hard and 2 dogs, 1 that sheds like crazy! The amount of hair this vacuum picked up that others couldn't touch was insane! It's still running beautifully 6 months later and we are so happy that we decided to pay the extra money. Rather than buying 3 cheap vacuums that will eventually give out, I highly recommend investing in a quality vacuum that will last over time! And, of you're a pet owner - this is the vacuum for you!!! (Trust me!!!)

This is the best vacuum for sucking up dirt, dust, pet hair, etc. I have a Dyson Animal vacuum I got 4 years ago & I thought that one was good. This one is so much better!!! It’s amazing that in only a few years time, the suction is more powerful than before. I thought it was going to suck up the luxury vinyl plank floor I just had installed. I love these vacuum cleaners because when you have a pet, they’re so powerful in cleaning up pet hair, fur balls, dust bunnies, etc. The only drawback is the weight of the vacuum because as it’s sucking up dirt, it’s heavy to push and pull. I’m 57 & don’t think of myself as weak. But as I’ve gotten older, I’ve noticed the better the vacuum, the heavier they’ve gotten. I wish they were lighter!

WORKS WELL, VERY STRONG VACUUM, EASY ASSEMBLY, DURABLE

Great vacuum. The suction power is much better than the battery powered vacuum that we tried out for the last few years. The only con is that it is much heavier than similar vacuums, but as long as you don’t need to carry it anywhere this isn’t an issue.

Easy to operate. Very powerful with excellent suction. Hair does not get tangled, which is a huge improvement from our previous Dyson which was over 12 years old. The unit is pretty heavy though, which was a surprise. Overall, very pleased with this purchase

Great vacuum for pets. Has self detangling rollers and attachments for small areas, strong suction power.

My favorite thing is the pet brush attachment for our shedding indoor furbabys, all of the attachments work flawlessly and extremely efficiently. The bottom vacuum pulled debris pushed down between our laminate flooring we didn’t even know that was there with complete ease. 10/10

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST DYSON VACUUMS THAT I HAVE HAD. PICKS UP AMAZING. THE DOG BRUSH THAT IS ATTACHED IS FANTASTIC. MY DOG STANDS STILL FOR THE BRUSHING. YOU BRUSH THAT THE HAIR GOES RIGHT IN THE CANISTER. NO MESS NO CLEAN UP

I have always had a Dyson. This machine is nothing but awesome as well. We have 2 Golden Retrievers who never stop shedding and this machine is perfect for our home. We have tried other machines but nothing works like a Dyson. The pet hair tool works awesome as well.

Amazing vacuum. Works great on dog hair across all surfaces. Picks up dirt you didn't even know was there. This is my second Dyson I've owned in the past 15 years. These machines work great and last.

The only reason I have kept this vacuum is for it's amazing suction power. But that's where the pros end... The cons: this is a heavy machine that takes some arm and core strength to maneuver. The "clicking in" for the upright position is weak and a bit of an irritation to deal with. The vacuum is all plastic, which we all know doesn't last and it makes it seem cheap. The hose is very frustrating to deal with as well due to it's stiffness and awkward position. The thing that really gets me though is, when on carpet, the vacuum doesn't get things in front of it. Due to it's design, there is a 2" space that doesn't get vacuumed because of the spacer in front. So you have to get the edge tool out, mess with the hose, and do it that way. So the functionality is not one for ease... And I really wish it had a light for the price you pay. I'm hoping over time it will get a little easier to use. But we shall see. Dyson may need to go back to the drawing board on this one.

Insanely Good! Strong Suction. Strong Power! I do not really like the extension suction cable seeing that it is quite hard to keep it extended. I will recommend purchasing an extension at Amazon! Otherwise, I love this vacuum.

I'd actually like to rate 4.5 but that's not an option. Old Dyson owner here. Being a dog owner I've had a lot of vacs over my time, I've had a lot of time period. My first vac I bought myself was a Kirby, I had that about 10 years. Then I had a string of more typical consumer store bought vacs that never pleased me that much. Then I got the Dyson DC15 Animal that I was extremely happy with, it went 15 years and a few replacement parts. Finally the plastic aged out. Replaced with one of the cheap Dyson wannabe vacs, twice. Not a great move, won't waste my time here on that junk. So now I returned to the rather pricey Dyson Ball series and I'm very happy again. Improvements for golden retriever owners (and like) are the advance beater bar that does not get hair wrapped around it. This part is awesome. Also awesome is the return to the Dyson ball maneuverability, the easy empty canister that actually fills properly and empties properly (something the cheap S brand vacs do not do), the unmatched attachments and of course the suction. A little towards the disappointing side is the all plastic chassis construction which makes the handle feel a little less substantial than the DC15. At first I felt like I might break it. Also not sure I'm happy about the new filtering, but the air that comes out of the vac seems to be extremely clean, that said it did from the DC15 as well. I'm happy I bought this, it actually was less expensive than the DC15 (in 2004) was and here we are nearly 20 years later. Biggest thing for me is not having the same substantial feel as the DC15 had and it doesn't roll on the rear wheels as well which you want to do when not actually using it. I think it's designed more towards hard floor vac and area rug use than our carpet that we honestly wish we didn't have and really want to replace, but it does work extremely well on our frieze carpet as well as the tile.

My second Dyson, and it outperforms the DC40 that was it's predecessor. I have a couple of cats, and the "Animal" designation is really appropriate!! I highly recommend this to anyone!!!

great vacuum, with cool attachments. Reliable product, worth the money. Dyson is durable. easy to do business with Best Buy because Best Buy is also reliable.

This is the best vacuum cleaner I have ever owned. I definitely have owned a lot of vacuum cleaners. I am so pleased. My home is blessed with two beautiful Golden Retrievers and lots of golden hair. Now I can actually keep it clean.

I bought this because ive had several dysons over the past few decades and felt my old one (8 years old) was needing retirement. Assembly required no tools and was very simple. I had previously vacuumed my house the night before purchasing this. For all intents and purposes my carpets were as clean as they had been after every other time of vacuuming. I couldnt wait to use my new dyson and used it immediately despite the room being clean. At least i thought it was... This vacuum filled the large dustbin after the first room! I continued each room of my home with the same results. This thing cleans deeper than i imagined and got dirt and hair out of places i couldnt see with the naked eye. Since the initial clean, it works great and maintains that initial level of cleanliness. It even works on area and play rugs that my previous vacuum simply wouldnt work on without problems. The dog grooming tool works very well and my furry family member doesnt mind it. The upholstery tool also gets deep down in the surfaces of my couch cushions.

It is a very powerful vacuum and does a great job picking up any type of debris. However, it is very loud and very heavy.

Works great, no complaints! It’s a really good vacuum and tools work phenomenally! You’ll be surprised how much dirt it pulls from your carpet it’s quite amazing!

I have owned. Dyson for 20 yrs now purchased this one, because really isn’t any other option as this seems to be their top upright as of now. Bothering new or improved has come out in a while for the uprights I also own their rechargeable but not the best choice for carpet. Uprights are the best for carpet and pt hair! I wouldn’t purchase any other vaccum. However,I have noticed Dyson has made their parts cheaper and I always make sure to get extra warranties as it’s expressive to service when it breaks. Amazing vaccum, just wish Dyson would improve the quality as it use to be years ago!
