Had a Dyson DC4 Absolute for a good number of years and loved it but decided it was time to upgrade. New cordless Dyson has so much more suction and easily handled. No problem emptying Only wish the On lever clicked into position to stay on whilst in use rather than having to be kept on with your...

This is my 4th Dyson since the DC01. All have cleaned fantastically and lasted many years so no hesitation in buying another. The V11 Absolute makes cleaning so much easier: head is very manoeuvrable and goes under radiators and furniture unlike bulky uprights; the variety of heads are quick and...

Never thought that I would saying this but my Dyson V11 is fabulous. I use it every day, great for doing the major cleaning day & then so handy for those quick pick up days. I have another very good vacuum cleaner & moved into a house which has a Vacuum Maid installed, my weapon of choice is the...

We bought this vacuum cleaner a month ago and it's truly awesome. The suction is amazing and emptying the canister is so easy particularly when it's filled with pet fur. Never got so excited with a vacuum cleaner before!

Best vacuum cleaner I have ever had! As a dog lover, I have persevered for decades with heavy and cumbersome vacuum cleaners to remove dog hair from carpet and wooden floors. Now I have the Dyson V11 I can whip around the rooms quickly with fantastic results. No aching back and exhausting hard work!
