Summary: Obviously built by a man
Comment: This is a good vacuum but difficult to use. The only real animal hair thing about it is the very large attachment mainly to be used on furniture. It is very hard to use the stick because you have to totally unwrap the wire, pull out the stick attach it to the hose and then use it. Also it has absolutely no edge power. It leaves an obvious 1 inch mark where it just doesn't "suck". So you do have to end up going around the room with the stick. For the money just buy a good bagless vacuum and you will get the same for your money. I bought a Hoover and it is great for the downstairs because also this vacuum is very heavy and hard to bring up and down stairs!!

Summary: Good suction but scratches floors badly
Comment: Have had this vacuum for several years now. Worked great on carpeted floors but we recently remodeled our house with all African Walnut. Unfortunately the Dyson has resulted in significant scratches on the floors due to the very small hard plastic wheels under the head. Now looking for something more hardwood friendly.

Summary: Love it!!!
Comment: I'm a proud owner of three Siberian Huskies. That being said I have a massive amount of hair... everywhere. I have a Furminator( which I love) I use to brush them three times a week and still hair, hair, hair. The carpet was awful and so was our furniture. We went through two other vacuums that didn't seem to be getting the job done.

Last Christmas, with relatives coming to visit out of state, I decided enough was enough. I researched online and read reviews for several other vacuums. I decided on the Dyson Animal(The ball version). The results ~ Amazing. The hair and dirt it picked up not only shocked me but, made me feel kind of sick all of that was in and on my carpet. I have a fairly small living room and I had to dump the canistor twice. It lived up to all the hype I read in the reviews.

There are a few people who say that the suction isnt working for them as well as they had hoped. In some cases not at all. This is surprising to me. When I vacuum I can actually see the hair being sucked to the machine before it even reaches it. I let all my friends use it, because they love it and are saving up to buy one of their own.

Bottom Line: Best $500 I spent so far. Met all my expectations.

Summary: Oh boy, am I in trouble!
Comment: I bought the Dyson DC24 from Target because I felt I couldn't afford the DC15 and the lightweight, compact design of the DC24 appealed to me. Let me say, I have been incredibly pleased with the power and performance of the DC24.

That said, when I saw Amazon had such a great price for a new, not reconditioned DC15 -- the one we originally wanted -- I had to snap it up. Wow, and uh-oh were my first reactions (that has to do with why I'm in trouble, which I'll get to later.).

It is definitely worth purchasing for even more robust cleaning power (we have 8 cats!) and its generous array of attachments. It is more unwieldy, though not nearly as heavy as the ridiculous, poor-performing Kirby. With the Kirby, I had to get on hands and knees with a Gonzo sponge to lift hair, then vacuum - no more of that! The good news is either Dyson lifts pet hair without hesitation. The difference with the Animal is that while it is heavier to manage, it cleans even more definitively.

A motivating factor is that I am an asthma sufferer, which I realize is exacerbated by the cats. The asthma's under control with meds, but I have definitely noticed dramatic improvement in my breathing and the utter banishment of household allergies due to such thorough cleaning.

The "Ball" pivoting mechanism isn't hype, either. It reduces all that repositioning and maneuvering.

So then, why am I in trouble? I am an idiot (or not!) because I am keeping both. The DC24 (small one) is perfect for whipping through the house on weeknights when I don't want to have a major production. It's so easy and light, able to get in tight and low places and I am never taxed or tired after using it. The Animal stays because there is simply no better cleaning to be had. I have had many vacuums in my life and if I could recoup my money from those manufacturers for the lousy performance of their Hoovers, Eurekas and Kirbys -- plus receive reimbursement for the extra hours I spent "double-cleaning" -- I could easily pay for the entire line of Dyson products with bags of money left over!

Summary: Your Vacuum Search Stops Here...
Comment: This is a super vacuum cleaner. No other vacuum could convince me to give up my Rainbow (they cost almost $2000 new). This is as good as the Rainbow in that it doesn't circulate a bunch of dust, but it's a ton easier to us. I have had this vacuum a year now. I admit that it took me a while to get used to the on board attachments, but now that I really understand how they work, they are great. All I can say is, I LOVE THIS VACUUM CLEANER!!!! It is 1000 times easier to use than the Rainbow, and it does a GREAT JOB. Buy it, you won't be disappointed. Look at the reviews, they tell the story... most vacuums have a significant number of negative reviews, this one gets a huge majority of 5 star reviews.
