    If you need a good quality, durable and pretty quiet vacuum, this is the one. We vacuumed the house with a different vacuum and then we re-vacuumed with the Dyson. The debris container was 3/4 full basically picking up what the other vacuum didn’t. Very happy with purchase!

    I have never felt a more powerful suction from a vaccum cleaner. This is top dog in its class. Very easy to assemble and to operate. Best Buy made it so easy to shop for this item. I was in and out in a flash. The best and friendliest service.

    What you expect from a Dyson - does the job well

    This vac is replacing a Dyson Stick V8 Animal, which is still fantastic to a degree. The stick is so good, but it's losing battery life again, and I felt like it was time to get a corded model instead of replacing the battery once again. It's heavy but surprisingly nimble for its size. I'm a petite person and I do fine on the hard floor but struggle a bit on the rug. However, it does a great job of picking up the dirt. I do feel like it's a bit overpriced, though. I expected it to be heavy, and I knew what I was paying for so, all in all, it's a nice vacuum. The dog attachment is cool. I use it on the sheepskin rugs, and my dog enjoys it. Oh, it is a noisy vac but so is the stick. It's a trade-off for power, I suppose.

    Ive used a lot of the dyson vacuums and this one is one of my top favorites. It’s a very good quality vacuum I really feel as it picks up every tiny crumb off my carpet giving a deep clean. It’s not heavy and easy to maneuver. The bottom piece is very wide making it easier to do lager sections of carpet. The attachments are also so good, very strong suction. If you prefer having a cord vacuum this is the one for you.

    Amazing vacuum. Powerful suction and great detangling. I have 2 golden retrievers and this picks ups all the hair does not get tangled. Other than it being a tiny bit heavy i have no issues with it. Highly recommend for households with lots of carpet and pets.

    Worth the price. We upgraded from a Shark Liftaway that we had for a couple years. We have two dogs and it never seemed to pick up everything. The suction on this vacuum is just insane. After vacuuming with our old shark, we used this Dyson and had to empty 3 cannisters from our carpet. This vacuum is absolutely worth it and worth the price.
