An Animal Indeed!
We purchased this vaccuum ti prepare for our new house which will be almost wall-to-wall carpeting. We have lived in houses with some carpeting. We have 2 large dogs (including a very sheddy Newfoundland Mix) and 3 cats. We have been using a Kenmore Canister vaccuum which we had been very happy with, but now that our baby is about to start crawling, we wanted to be ready for the new carpeting in the new house. This thing is indeed an animal!! It does a terrific job of picking up the dust and animal hair on our floors. It is very powerful, and we are very happy with this purchase.

OK With Limitations
This is the second Dyson. The first one broke at the neck when I was using it. We have 2 dogs that shed tons of hair. Dysons are great at picking up hair on carpet. They are lousy at cleaning bare floors. As mentioned this is the second Dyson and I hope this one will not break after only 3 years of service. I don't think making vacuum cleaners from plastic is a good idea. The vacuum is used at least 3, often 4 times a week in a house. Still it should not have snapped after 3 years. At least with the DC 17 we have a 5 year warranty.

Not perfect, but very good.
We bought this about six months ago and so far I'm pretty happy with it. We've lived in our current house almost ten years and during that time have gone through about half a dozen vacuum cleaners. It was getting to the point of absurdity. My husband was fixing them for awhile, but obviously he has better things to do with his spare time than fix broken vacuum cleaners. Finally when the last one broke down we were thinking about buying a Kirby, since some friends have had one for many years. Instead, after reading the reviews, I decided to try a Dyson. So far so good. It's not perfect, but it's not bad, and more importantly it shows no signs of breaking. The design is very simple and straight forward and it feels sturdier than the other vacuums we've had. The hose is long enough so I can reach up our stairs and the main compartment is easy to pull off for cleaning. It's also very powerful and there hasn't been anything yet that I've had trouble vacuuming. My only complaints are (1. It doesn't pick up well on the sides, so I have to go over the baseboards with the hose attachment. (2. The dirt inside the cylinder is sometimes hard to clean out, since it gets wedged up pretty high. (3. It tends to blow the dirt around on non carpeted areas. It still picks it up, but it scatters it first.
Despite these few annoyances, this is still the best vacuum I've owned and I would buy it again.

Great vacuum
I've had the vacuum about a year now, and have had no problems. The suction is as good or better than any vacuum I've used before. The predecessor to the Dyson at my house cost about $120 and only lasted for 5 uses. For the Dyson to continue performing as well as it has for the last year makes it a far better value than anything I've owned before. Should it last for the duration of its 5 year warranty, it was money well spent.
