Easy to use and clean; seems powerful

One head stopped working so called DYSON and they sent a new one; It's very good but not the best; Ok for the money especially with the 5 year warranty

The Dyson Cinetic Ball is the best vac for suction I ever used. I am 67 and my hands are getting arthritic. However, it is super heavy, difficult to maneuver and not ergonomically friendly at changing attachments. Dusting with the brush is extremely uncomfortable. So is using the upholstery brush.

high quality; effective; reliable

noisy; difficult to use

Suction on our rugs is very strong, almost too strong so vacuum with my finger on the open vent so as to move it across the surface. However on my plush bedroom carpet it is much easy to use. The rotating brushes on the head really clean the carpet very well.

Dyson markets itself as the company with the science behind vacuum cleaners that never lose suction. This upright vacuum cleaner proved to have excellent suction, and it moved around corners better than most of the machines on our lineup.

This upright vacuum combines powerful suction and fluid maneuverability

It doesn't let you adjust the suction

Dyson's DC65 Cinetic Big Ball Animal+Allergy is one of the most high-tech, feature-packed vacuums the company has produced to date, but all these bells and whistles don't come cheap.

Bagless; Filterless; Maneuverable; Lots of attachments; Great suction performance

When we were looking at this vacuum cleaner, the basic one was $200 less than the animal, which comes with a raft of attachments. I initially questioned the price difference but bought the more expensive one as we have dogs.

I bought this vacuum about a month ago and it is by far the best vacuum ever! The suction is absolutely phenomenal! The length of the cord is very long, so I can get through most of my house without having to unplug over and over.

We're on our second Dyson Animal (1st one lasted about 10 years). With two kids and two dogs in the house, vacuuming is a daily task. The Dyson Animal SUCKS (in a good vacuum way) really well.
