We had an Animal 2 that we had to get rid of this year, as the brush bar MELTED in an area and completely stopped functioning. I've never seen anything like that, although to be fair we had it for at least 5 years. After having 2 Dysons (I think the previous was the original Animal), I decided to make the switch to the Shark NV752 TruePet Upright and I have to say the headlights on it are pretty amazing (also the price point was a little better than Dyson - whether or not it will last as long we will have to see). So if Dyson can incorporate the lighting AND the long hair feature (my hair always gets tangled on the brush bar and it's a PITA to clean off), we would def go with Dyson for the next vac in a few years. DYSON ARE YOU READING THIS? DO ITTTTT. I would like to get a wireless handheld Dyson for my bday next year or maybe after tax season.
As a vacuum service technician, From this lineup I prefer the Dyson V8. It is the most reliable and easiest to maintain over the long run. I have seen enough problems with the handset and dust bin on the V11 to say I prefer the V6 or V8. The only 3 Dyson Ball units I would recommend are the DC40, DC41 and DC65. I would avoid any Dyson model that begins with "UP" (UP13, UP20 etc) they may look similar to the DC models but they are not the same quality.
@@kaifjarde Dyson quality has really dropped. I also don't like their Cinetic system which eliminates the pre-filter and passes dust through the motor and into the expensive post motor filters. If you don't mind a canister, I recommend the Sebo K3. You might want to purchase the Sebo turbo tool separately if pet fur on the sofa is an issue.
@@HODIUSDUDE I can't seem to find the model #'s on their website. Considering the Dyson Animal 3 Extra, but unsure if this is one of the DC's or UP models. BestBuy does list model numbers, but it doesn't appear to include DC or UP. Any insight?
@@miguels.1569 Looks like Dyson lists "exclusives" on their website that may not have a match to what is sold in stores. I don't recommend the new Dysons to anyone anymore because of the recent quality issues I've seen.
I absolutely love my v15 detect for laminate wood floors…. Vacuuming in late afternoon/night is so efficient. It’s amazing how much that little green light illuminates!!! And, of course the power of the vacuum itself is unbeatable. The price is definitely worth the investment. I mean we use it everyday, just about, so it is definitely a wise investment. I find myself vacuuming everything and more often because it just works so damn good!!! If you’re on the fence, just do it.. I got mine using Klarna.. paid for it in 4 payments, which did make it a little easier than one large payment.
@@alexanderhurteau4015 That and people dont clean those old vacuums properly. "it works great" spreading 50 yr old dust around and not cleaning a thing is all it does.
I like your practical approach...especially the "who is this for" and asking what they want/need to do with it. We have a very good corded canister vacuum we love. BUT our 1960s-built house does NOT have enough electric outlets for the needs of this century, which makes it too much hassle to hunt for a plug when we just want to do spot cleanings. SO...we decided to order a Dyson Omni-Glide (love that swivel head for tight spots and getting around furniture legs without moving everything, plus getting under couches and beds easily because it goes flat. Dyson had a sale which included a free tool, so we selected from a list the mini motorised head to vacuum sofas and beds. Ok, it doesn't have a lighted motor head, the bin is smaller the battery life shorter than other models...but it looks perfect for use as a quick grab and go touch up vacuum. We even sprung for the lighted wand... that looks handy also. 😃
I just ordered the V15 detect. Can't wait to get it. My cats leave pieces of litter and dust all over my hard wood floors so I'm looking forward to the laser fluffy head. Right now to clean my hard wood floors I'm using my Dyson V6 and bending down with a small flashlight to reflect on the floor to get every speck of litter and dust. Yes I'm a clean freak. Great video!
I just got the V11 I am over the moon. There is no more dog hair all over the house. Cut my dusting down to once every 2 wks. I was changing my house filter every month. Now every 3 months. Spendy yes, but when you add everything else, saves time, money, making my furnace run better, the air we are breathing better, I am sold I made the best choice to purchase..Thank you I watched all of your Dyson videos and your cleaning videos showing you using the Dyson that helped me make the decision.
My first Dyson was the Dyson Animal. It worked great, but my biggest beef was that when you used the attachments the flex hose was really stiff and it made using it really like "work". I've graduated to the V11 Outsize since when I bought it I lived in a house with both carpet and hard floors and I wanted the advantage of a larger "swipe". I liked the fact that it came with 2 batteries and when I have to use the tools, I find it easier than struggling with the attachments and flex hose on the Dyson Animal.
I just recently got a V8 Animal free with my credit card points. We have a big house with lots of carpet but it's a great second vac for the kitchen, dining room and entry way which have wood floors and also is amazing with the electric attachment for furniture to get dog hair off the couch. It also is a great size to get into the corners in the bathroom. I would never spend what Dyson wants for these tiny vacuums but for free, it's amazing!
@@dianaaasims It's the FlexPerks card from US Bank. I get 1 point for each $1 I spend and then some things are more like airline tickets, gas, groceries etc. are all 2x, 3x or 4x points. I use that one card for EVERYTHING and pay it off each month. I don't own any other credit cards and I use it to pay utility bills, phone bills etc. Anyone who will take a credit card gets paid with that card. The points add up quickly but I only use them about once a year or less. Usually I just get cash back but noticed that Dyson just waiting for me to cash in my points. lol.
I’ve had a dyson ball vacuum for many years, but last year I brought the Dyson V11 when I moved into our new house that had more solid floor than carpeted floors. I love it. Would upgrade to the V15 but just can’t justify it this soon.
My neighbor moved and gave me her Dyson & it’s so heavy it’s hard to use. I’m not happy w/ it at all. Small wrists and it’s not easy to use/move around. I was stunned by how heavy it was. If I was a millionaire I might give another Dyson a chance but I’m not so no way. $400.00 4 a vacuum, is seriously 2 expensive. Great information & explained well.
I felt the same way about my dyson until I gave it to my mil and purchased a shark. I’m now on my 2nd shark and IMO they just don’t clean as well as dyson.
I have the $125 model that Costco carried. I think it’s the Navigator model. I, too, have a mix of carpets and hardwoods. I can switch on or off the beater bar. I still really like it. It’s super easy to clean up, too. You just have to remember that if you clean the filters you need 48 hours or so to have them dry completely.
I have the v11 torque drive and I’m in love with it. Battery life is awesome. You can change the battery’s out if need/want too. I’d recommend this vacuum to anyone really
@@abirbee2877 there is a red button on the battery. U push it and the battery will come out. I wanna say the torque drive is the only v11 model that does it. Not sure tho
I recently got my first Dyson. I held off for years not realizing that they offer a payment plan. You can pay a smaller price each month, interest free till you pay it off. Had I realized this, I would have got one years ago. I was going to finally get a $400 Dyson but because of the payment plan, I ended up getting a newer $700 Dyson. I love it, It’s the best thing I’ve ever bought. I previously had a $150 stick vac from Amazon and it was nothing more than a glorified dust buster
For cleaning , all we need is time and our hands. Old brands , still work well . We have 20 years old rainbow vacuum with water tank. Did not plan to go shop for new gadget . Technology will go far beyond what’s really people need with a huge cost .
I have an old V6 that I absolutely love because I live in less than 1,000 square feet and I have back issues that prevent me from using a heavier vacuum. The V11 looks enticing and if I had a larger home I would consider it.
The 1st one would be great for an 6-8 year old wanting to play house!! I still have my ball Dyson I purchased in 2012. It recently broke. The hose broke. But I’ve heard that one of the good things about Dyson is that everything is easily replaceable. I’m about to find out! Thanks for sharing, Robin
So, I'm curious if these cordless vacuums eliminate the need for traditional brooms? We have a corded Shark that works pretty well but I really like these cordless models she's showing. Our house is about 50 50 tile, carpet. Would appreciate your comments. Are brooms obsolete? At least indoors.
Sure does! Just get an absolute model. It comes with the soft velvet roller head for wood floors. Or if you do the upright, purchase the flat out head tool for wood tools. Do not use these vacuums on carpet powder or kitty litter. It clogs them up.
sending my love from Frankfurt Germany, love your chanel i have been following you for 10 years on youtube and allways find all my answers on your chanel
I had the Dyson Animal, awesome machine, I absolutely loved it! I recently bought the Bissell Helix Turbo Pet Hair Eraser, and I find it every bit as good as the Dyson Animal... but hair doesn't get caught around the brush of the Bissell, and it's half the price of the Dyson! My Dyson lasted 7 years of absolute abuse (large, long haired, very floofy cat who sheds his weight in hair daily, year-round), so we'll see how long the Bissell goes, but so far I'm very impressed. I still have my Bosch Unlimited, the batteries aren't as good as they claim, but the vacuum itself still going strong after 2 years of very hard work. I'm still sad that Lux left the game, they used to be top of the market in New Zealand before Dyson took over.
I love Dyson. Pricey, but definitely worth it. I have a full size corded vacuum, I've easily had it for 10 years or more and it still works great. I have mostly carpet, but wanted something easier to use on hard floors and just got the Omniglide. I love it. It's super lightweight and so easy to use.
I heard, actually, it doesn't pick up the hair so well. I have seen demonstration where the vacuuming was done and after the brooming of the carpet. It was astonishing how much hair was left behind. I believe they are big on name. They become a trade mark, and due to that many people don't "seem to find" any fault with it. It i like they not suppose to be bad, they are Dyson after all. The price is very high too and they are never on sale. Which makes it totally unaffordable.
I have hardwood floors with 3 rugs, and I have 3 cats. I own the Dyson Omni-glide which works well with cat fur and litter on the floor. I also have the Dyson Animal 2 (corded) for the rugs. My house is about 2000 square feet and I need both vacuums mainly because of the cats.
I’m 5’ tall and petite. I have a dyson animal v11 and it’s a height challenge for me to remove canister from the stick to empty and to put back together. Also with a small petite wrist the weight is heavy for my hand and arm. I wish it was lighter in weight. I love this vacuum unfortunately it’s made for average height humans.
Next time you're in the market for a new vacuum, I would check out the Dyson Omni-Glide. I think you'll be impressed with the size and light weight. It won't last as long, but it might make for a better vacuuming experience for you.
Take a look at the Miele Classic C1 canister vacuum or the LG CordZero A9 cordless vacuum. Both have height adjustable extension wands for short and tall people.
I've spoken with repairman in the vacuum cleaner business and they say all the big box stores sell is junk including the dyson which he says he hears horrible things about and that break down all the time. They said if you want decent vacuum cleaners talk to a repairman/store and they will show you some that may be a little more expensive but like an Electrolux will last for decades instead of 2 years. Just passing along what he said
Would love your suggestion on the best vacuum (any brand, make, model) for cleaning up after cats…litter/hair and general house dirt. I have tried numerous vacuums but none seem to be able to pick up cat litter. I have 2,000 sq ft home consisting of tile, hardwood and some long pile carpet. They usually kick it around. Thanks in advance
I can't afford a Dyson, so I got a secondhand Roidmi f8 storm. It's actually wonderful if you have a small house. I always use it at the lowest setting and it still picks up everything, including pet hair (I have a very hairy, very sheddy dog... I know what I'm talking about, trust me). Battery lasts a decent amount of time if you don't use it on the higher setting, it's really sturdy, really lightweight and the attachments are so smart. It does not even take that long to fully recharge (approximately 2 hours) and it's so compact I can keep it in a drawer along with my spray mop so my cleaning supplies are out of sight. If I can think of any cons I'd say the bin is not that big, but it's not much of a deal if you empty it after every use.
The cordless vacuum is good for all the quick touchups and use in between using the regular vacuum, but it shouldn't be your only machine. You should also have a regular vacuum for the heavy duty deep cleaning and high traffic areas in the house or office space. But when I saw the price for the Dyson Outzise cordless, my wig was snatched and blasted into the Delta quadrant.
The Dyson we got sadly just never worked. We had to charge it forever, but no suction. Not worth the high price to have a useless thing hanging on the wall that promised to be light, cordless, efficient, stong. Miele is so good, if you can handle the high price tag, never fails.
For anyone in the UK with carpets. I say get a SEBO plug in if you want quality and longevity and a product that will last you years! The Samsung Jet cordless was quite good for a quality and feels better made than any Dyson.
I currently have the Dyson Cyclone v10 that came with Dyson Cyclone v10 dok. At this time, I need to get a battery replacement because I have been using it 3+ years. I would definitely like to consider the Dyson v15 Detect but I just wish that it had a dok similar to the Dyson Cyclone v10 dok. Love the video and thanks for sharing.
I got my dyson v10 cordless for $100 less, on black Friday sale. Every time I vacuum my carpets, I can not beleive the amount of dust in them, and I only use it on medium power. I love it. Now I love cleaning too.
Thanks to whomever commented about ordering on the Dyson website! So to whoever hasn’t purchased an upgraded version you can register your current Dyson on their website. Doing this gives you a 20% owners discount! I had purchased a used Dyson MultiFloor off Amazon for $200 and used it for several years. After reading that comment I tried it out and contacted Dyson chat 💬 and ordered thru a chat session and saved almost $200 🤩💵 I purchased the V12 which is slim and lightweight with the on and off switch! I received the vacuum the NEXT DAY for free shipping 😳 and I LOVE IT!!! The wads of hair I shed rolled right up in the canister and didn’t tangle! 🙌🏻 finally a vacuum that doesn’t require a pair of scissors to the roller after each use 😅
To solve the problem of long hair or debris interfering with the rotating floor brush, I recently started a pre-vacuum step which really makes a difference and the vacuum is doing even a better job if that is possible. There are companies that make large tacky lint rollers with long handles to be used on the floor. It's great on the carpet, tile, laminate, hardwood. I no longer am cutting off the hair from the floor brush.
The first v8 did not have anywhere close to a 40 minute run time. Dyson is using a different battery on the newer ones. I have a v7 and the run time is terrible, but the newer one advertises a longer run time. The batteries are interchangeable but kind of expensive.
@@DabblelyDiddly No I don't. People spending money on Dyson products house is no cleaner than mine. I have a corded Dyson Ball Animal that I paid $150 for, and a v8 that I paid $150 new. I still have other vacuums. I grew up using a Kirby.
@@jacquieincolour9084 The Miele Complete C3 Cat and Dog Pro Vacuum Cleaner, Red Will do a more than perfect job for you. The best way that I can explain it to you is if you use a dyson on a rug or carpet.. yes it will clean it however the miele gives it a next kind of NEW LIFE as it cleans much deeper 😇🥰
Thank god they have a v12. Perfectly in between the v11 and v15. It also has the laser technology on it as well. Just a smaller canister and battery life than the v15. But that being said, the v12 is lighter
We have a small house but....we have a large dog and 2 cats. I have the V11 and the Dyson Ball Animal. I keep the Dyson Ball upstairs because of the wall to wall. (I hate that carpet and will never ever do that again) Due to a spinal injury and a major surgery I can't carry the Dyson Ball downstairs sooooo, enter the V11. It's light enough for me to use and I can vacuum the whole downstairs on a single charge :) Big Dyson fan here.....huge!
I love my Dyson but absolutely hate the cordless version. I purchased the V11 outsize cordless vacuum and I am not a fan. First of all the having to hold the trigger constantly is a big pain in the a** and the fact that the mini version you showed has an off/on switch proves Dyson can put this on a cordless so Dyson if you are listening get rid of the dam trigger to turn a cordless off and on. Secondly the dam thing is heavy so using most of the tools that I got with it are pretty much useless because I cannot lift the dam thing. Thirdly the fact that it cannot stand on its own is a pain. Yes you get the wall mount but I don't have a place in my home where I can mount it and have access to a plus where it's not out in the open. Darn thing has fallen over so many times I'm surprised it still works. And lastly cleaning takes twice as long. When I use it I have to do my basic vacuum. Then I have to go lay it down switch out the tool and go back around the house to use the attachment to clean the floor boards and dust. I'm glad I didn't get rid of my corded Dyson. I was so excited to get the cordless but it has been a big let down given how expensive it is. As others have mentioned save yourself the price tag and look for comparable vacuums that are cheaper or go with the corded vacuum if you can afford it.
I’ve had Dyson for the last 10-15 years and was pretty happy with them. But I’ve gone down a different path and bought a Bissell stick vac. Sorry Dyson but this machine is amazing !! Went over the carpet with my Dyson and then the Bissell and I couldn’t believe the extra dirt the Bissell picked up. In fairness my Dysons were older models.
I just ordered that Dyson Ball Animal 2 Pro because of your review. I love your video's and trust your opinion. I have a cordless dyson but it runs out in 20 mins. I need something with more power. Thank you clean my space. not only did you help me in my minimalist journey years ago but now you're helping me take care of the pet hair in my house. having 2 dogs , 2 cats and 1 bird if a full time job.
I have a v11 to supplement the central vac. I'm having issues with the bin and run time is very low. If you run it in high you might get 6 minutes tun time. Central vac is best if your building new or your house currently has it. The unit is mounted in the garage typically so any dust that escapes is in garage not your living space not to mention lots of suction!
I have 2 original yellow DC07. One for upstairs and one for downstairs. We also have a Dyson v8 I bought a few years ago. The brush on the dc7 keep clogging with dog hair and human hair. Just yesterday I had to finish my upstairs with my v11 because the yellow upright brush is so clogged it will not pick anything up. I wondering if I should get the V15 to replace the DC07 or get the ball animal total clean.
Been using the Dyson V5?6?7? (cannot recall exactly) animal for years. Worked like a charm until last year an issue with the filter closer not snapping shut after you empty the bin. Eyeing cordless for years but I was one of those who was reluctant based on bin size and holding a charge long enough to complete the whole house. My teenage daughter helps with vacuuming sometimes and. got a lot less help after it became an issue with the machine. Last spring I sprung for the V15 on a good sale price. Mostly after research the 15 seems to have solved the charge time and the bin is almost as large as my old vacuum. But guess what? After purchase it literally it sat unopened the box for 6 months. I notice I will occasionally let myself buy a luxury item like this vacuum (after a long wait deliberating) but have a hard time letting myself use it. Just me? SO I am finally putting it together today while watching this video! Two things are a bit of a bummer. I didn't recall that it has 2 main heads, looks like you need to switch from the laser head for hard flooring to the large anti tangle comb head for carpet. What I liked about my previous machine was the auto sensing from hard to soft flooring and one head. I like not too many tool changes and choices and this has a ton in the box. I think I probably will not use them all. The other bummer is on reading the instructions you have to be careful hanging the wall mount that there's no wiring, plumbing, or air ducts behind the wall you drill. into to hang it. We've lived in a rented home for 6 years with unfortunately very cheap soft drywall. I doubt I could hang it anywhere (perhaps with a stud behind) but also I have no idea how to tell that there isn't any wiring or pipes behind the wall. Especially if I choose to hang it above a socket so it can charge, there could be wiring behind. The closet where I planned to hang it has no sockets in there, so if I successfully found a good location to hang it where an outlet is, it will hang like an eyesore in. a high traffic space or next to my kitchen table haha. But already because I'm renting I cannot risk wall damage or inadvertent plumbing or wiring damage. Thus there goes my silly little dream of hanging it neatly on a wall charging dock out of sight but accessible like in those clean with me videos by bigtime rich youtubers haha. Fortunately it does have an option to charge just the main component with the handheld device, which will sit awkwardly on my floor but at least I can still charge it! And some part of my tired brain must have thought of all this months ago because it seems I also bought a vacuum floor stand where you can hang it, which I will keep in my cleaning closet when not in use! I hope it solves this concern. The only downside I think is that either it needs to charge and then put away. A week later when I go to vacuum it may have lost a lot of charge, then I must charge again before use. Or if I don't bother and charge it first before use, it's a bit of bummer if we are ready to vacuum and realize we must wait to charge each time first. Just goes to show that sometimes efforts to solve an issue in life can create new unforeseen issues. Maybe I will post an update on how my vacuum saga turns out haha! I will say that in the grand scheme of life this is a very small first world problem to have and I know I am fortunate just to be able to own such a luxe item in the first place, which I probably don't even need and most in this world cannot afford. I think it will be a very nice device, very useful. My hope was to enjoy vacuuming more and vacuum more often without tripping over, vacuuming over, and managing the cord, which would motivate me to keep my house cleaner with more ease. Because I am a very stressed busy and tired single mom. And my daughter is keen to try it, so if she helps more- bonus! It's also much more lightweight than the corded animal. Cheers! xo
We have 3 cats, wool rugs over vinyl floors so we need flooring to carpet. We have a reconditioned Dyson Animal V7 cordless stick vac. Its really a nice vacuum. Our house is a 2000 sq feet ranch and it does a great job. Some days I don’t get the entire house done on one charge but I leave the bedrooms for another session. No big deal. There are only 2 of us who live in the home. We had a 2000 sq ft Victorian house and it did an amazing job there too. We have a full sized Dyson too but it is a heavy beast. I rarely use it. When I do a deep clean, I bring out the beast.,
I work with hoovers everyday and I would say Henry hoover works best not battery operated but just keeps working for years . Dyson is great for a quick run around but not for a full home cleaning.
I want one of these fore base boards furniture detail cleaning!! Mass vacuuming however I use roomba💜 I love my rumba,if I'm spelling that right!! It adds Hours to my life !! I come home& my floors are done, it's taken care of! Need to get the roomba vacuum and mop combo.
I have my moms animal that's about 9 or 10 years old, I fell in love with it the moment I barrowed it about 13 or 15 years ago when she first indulged in the dyson animal. Then when she found her new animal ball I was gifted her pride & joy original animal . I'm now smittened by the V11 although I'm loving the laser one ....
I just ordered a v8 Absolute - I think it’s a good starter dyson that has allot of versatility. I’m a single first-time home owner with a mix of hardwood, tile and carpet floors. I have a Cape home.
I just ran across your video. I was a little worried about listening to it as I just bought a Dyson Cyclone V10. My house is all hardwood and I have 3 cats and the fur is terrible. My place is about 1100 sq ft. Seems the cats are shedding worse than ever this winter. I never vacuumed often enough because it’s such a pain to pull out the canister vacuum and once I start I need to do the whole place d/t the litter and fur. Hoping with this stick vac I’ll be able to more quickly do the main level more frequently
Dyson has the ball multi floor 2, the slim ball and the small ball corded upright vacuums that weight less and have the same seal system that is third party tested and performance as the cordless machines.
I think i need to stick with chorded vac. Have a two floor house with the downstairs hardwood floors. Prtty large area. And the upstairs as well as the stairs is carpeted. And add golden retriever hair in the mix lol. Idk if chord-less will keep up, but i could be wrong I’d love to know😅
Thank you for this video! I want a cordless vacuum but have a fairly big house so didn’t ever think it would be worth it and also have pets that shed a lot so didn’t think they would be the best option but appreciate you going into detail about all the different types!
I tried searching your channel, but couldn't see a recommendation for a mop style cleaner? I just moved into a 1900sqft house with all hard floors. Half wood, half tile. I own two dysons and a roomba, but I am now trying to figure out for mopping, what should I use? I've seen recs for Bissell crosswave and tineco. What do you use?
Thanks for all of this great info! I love Dyson and have used them for over 10 years or so. I’ve always used the upright plug in vacuums but am looking for a cordless. I just hate holding down the trigger to keep it going…other than the smallest, lightest one do the other have an on/off switch or do you have to hold it down the whole time?
From my knowledge, only the Omni-Glide in their stick collection has the on/off switch. The rest have the trigger. I can understand the pain point with the trigger, so maybe a Dyson Ball is better suited?
It's done to maximise battery life. It improves efficiency as you only press when you need it. With cordless vacuum battery life is key so it's imperative they maximise that through forced features or removal of some.
So glad you posted this comment because I wouldn’t have known and would have been upset to find out that I had to hold down the trigger with my arthritic hands!
Which vacuum do you use?
Which one is good for hair especially pet hair, that can do hardfloor and as a handheld vacuum like couches and beds?
I use dyson v15 detect 🙂
I use dyson v11
We have an older Dyson stick, as well as the first Dyson animal model which we had for our previous home.
We had an Animal 2 that we had to get rid of this year, as the brush bar MELTED in an area and completely stopped functioning.

I absolutely love my v15 detect for laminate wood floors…. Vacuuming in late afternoon/night is so efficient. It’s amazing how much that little green light illuminates!!! And, of course the power of the vacuum itself is unbeatable. The price is definitely worth the investment. I mean we use it everyday, just about, so it is definitely a wise investment. I find myself vacuuming everything and more often because it just works so damn good!!! If you’re on the fence, just do it.. I got mine using Klarna.. paid for it in 4 payments, which did make it a little easier than one large payment.
I use ours everyday as well and find that helps confirm the investment. Thanks for watching!
Does it work good on carpet and rugs?
It does absolutely work amazing on carpet and rugs as well!!!! Phenomenal!!!
I love your channel!! Thank you for all you do :)
How did you get it with Klarna? The website directly does not offer Klarna.
This video is 150% useful and500% professional
Thank you so much Melisa for all your hard work to teach me about cleaning,
My favourite vacuum cleaner is the Electrolux canister my parents bought new in 1965. It's still working as new, and I use it several times a week.
I use one too! Mine is from the 70's... best vacuum cleaner ever!
They don’t make things to last anymore :/ they want people buying new stuff all the time
Electroluxes are quite solid machines. If you want to improve the filtration there now aftermarket hepa bags that work with classic Electroluxes.
The problem with those is the filtration if you have allergies
@@alexanderhurteau4015 That and people dont clean those old vacuums properly. "it works great" spreading 50 yr old dust around and not cleaning a thing is all it does.
I like your practical approach...especially the "who is this for" and asking what they want/need to do with it.
We have a very good corded canister vacuum we love. BUT our 1960s-built house does NOT have enough electric outlets for the needs of this century, which makes it too much hassle to hunt for a plug when we just want to do spot cleanings.
SO...we decided to order a Dyson Omni-Glide (love that swivel head for tight spots and getting around furniture legs without moving everything, plus getting under couches and beds easily because it goes flat. Dyson had a sale which included a free tool, so we selected from a list the mini motorised head to vacuum sofas and beds.
Ok, it doesn't have a lighted motor head, the bin is smaller the battery life shorter than other models...but it looks perfect for use as a quick grab and go touch up vacuum. We even sprung for the lighted wand... that looks handy also. 😃
I just ordered the V15 detect. Can't wait to get it. My cats leave pieces of litter and dust all over my hard wood floors so I'm looking forward to the laser fluffy head. Right now to clean my hard wood floors I'm using my Dyson V6 and bending down with a small flashlight to reflect on the floor to get every speck of litter and dust. Yes I'm a clean freak. Great video!
I just got the V11 I am over the moon. There is no more dog hair all over the house. Cut my dusting down to once every 2 wks. I was changing my house filter every month. Now every 3 months. Spendy yes, but when you add everything else, saves time, money, making my furnace run better, the air we are breathing better, I am sold I made the best choice to purchase..Thank you I watched all of your Dyson videos and your cleaning videos showing you using the Dyson that helped me make the decision.
My first Dyson was the Dyson Animal. It worked great, but my biggest beef was that when you used the attachments the flex hose was really stiff and it made using it really like "work". I've graduated to the V11 Outsize since when I bought it I lived in a house with both carpet and hard floors and I wanted the advantage of a larger "swipe". I liked the fact that it came with 2 batteries and when I have to use the tools, I find it easier than struggling with the attachments and flex hose on the Dyson Animal.

i have a dyson animal and i agree its awful trying to use the attachment on my carpetted stairs, glad its not just me being lazy
That’s why I got the cordless! The hose needs the Hulk to pull it out!
You are a natural and how you kept a video on vacuums so captivating and engaging is true talent😉. Dyson has a great spokesperson in you. Great job👍
I just recently got a V8 Animal free with my credit card points. We have a big house with lots of carpet but it's a great second vac for the kitchen, dining room and entry way which have wood floors and also is amazing with the electric attachment for furniture to get dog hair off the couch. It also is a great size to get into the corners in the bathroom. I would never spend what Dyson wants for these tiny vacuums but for free, it's amazing!
Wow! What credit card do you have?!
@@dianaaasims It's the FlexPerks card from US Bank. I get 1 point for each $1 I spend and then some things are more like airline tickets, gas, groceries etc. are all 2x, 3x or 4x points. I use that one card for EVERYTHING and pay it off each month. I don't own any other credit cards and I use it to pay utility bills, phone bills etc. Anyone who will take a credit card gets paid with that card. The points add up quickly but I only use them about once a year or less. Usually I just get cash back but noticed that Dyson just waiting for me to cash in my points. lol.
You can tell yourself it’s free, but you could’ve used the points on something else.
@@dr.apollo4226 you are absolutely correct.
I’ve had a dyson ball vacuum for many years, but last year I brought the Dyson V11 when I moved into our new house that had more solid floor than carpeted floors. I love it. Would upgrade to the V15 but just can’t justify it this soon.

My neighbor moved and gave me her Dyson & it’s so heavy it’s hard to use. I’m not happy w/ it at all. Small wrists and it’s not easy to use/move around. I was stunned by how heavy it was.
If I was a millionaire I might give another Dyson a chance but I’m not so no way. $400.00 4 a vacuum, is seriously 2 expensive.
Great information & explained well.
Try a sebo or Henry. Still expensive and in some situations more but actually worth it
@@bread-gz3rl Thanks for the suggestion but I can’t afford a Dyson so I can’t afford any vacuum that’s outrageously priced. 👍💜
I felt the same way about my dyson until I gave it to my mil and purchased a shark. I’m now on my 2nd shark and IMO they just don’t clean as well as dyson.
I’ve never been impressed by Dysons. For the price, I expect so much more. I love my Shark and will probably buy another.
I have had 3 different Dysons and am now a Shark user. Shark is the best and at a fraction of the cost!
I’ve heard the same thing. Is there a particular model you suggest? I have carpet and hardwood floors.
Yes please share which Dysons you tried, why they weren’t worth it for you and which model of Shark you recommend. Please! 🙏🏻😃
Both cheap shit. Buy a henry or sebo
Please tell us what version or shark you use
I have the $125 model that Costco carried. I think it’s the Navigator model. I, too, have a mix of carpets and hardwoods. I can switch on or off the beater bar. I still really like it. It’s super easy to clean up, too. You just have to remember that if you clean the filters you need 48 hours or so to have them dry completely.
I have the v11 torque drive and I’m in love with it. Battery life is awesome. You can change the battery’s out if need/want too. I’d recommend this vacuum to anyone really
But how do you charge the second battery?
@@abirbee2877 there is a red button on the battery. U push it and the battery will come out. I wanna say the torque drive is the only v11 model that does it. Not sure tho
I’m getting a decent rated cheap stick vac on black friday. I know dyson is best but it’s not in my budget. Good content tho
Dyson is worst lmfao
I recently got my first Dyson. I held off for years not realizing that they offer a payment plan. You can pay a smaller price each month, interest free till you pay it off. Had I realized this, I would have got one years ago. I was going to finally get a $400 Dyson but because of the payment plan, I ended up getting a newer $700 Dyson. I love it, It’s the best thing I’ve ever bought. I previously had a $150 stick vac from Amazon and it was nothing more than a glorified dust buster
Shark are every bit as good and a lot cheaper! With a 5 year guarantee you can't go wrong - don't listen to these self proclaimed experts on UA-cam.
For cleaning , all we need is time and our hands. Old brands , still work well . We have 20 years old rainbow vacuum with water tank. Did not plan to go shop for new gadget . Technology will go far beyond what’s really people need with a huge cost .
I clean homes professionally, you should check out Shark vacuums, I have a shark rocket stick and I love it!
I have an old V6 that I absolutely love because I live in less than 1,000 square feet and I have back issues that prevent me from using a heavier vacuum. The V11 looks enticing and if I had a larger home I would consider it.
Totally! The V6 sounds like a suitable choice!

The 1st one would be great for an 6-8 year old wanting to play house!! I still have my ball Dyson I purchased in 2012. It recently broke. The hose broke. But I’ve heard that one of the good things about Dyson is that everything is easily replaceable. I’m about to find out! Thanks for sharing, Robin
You can buy parts from their website in the UK, I assume the same is possible in other markets
So, I'm curious if these cordless vacuums eliminate the need for traditional brooms? We have a corded Shark that works pretty well but I really like these cordless models she's showing. Our house is about 50 50 tile, carpet. Would appreciate your comments. Are brooms obsolete? At least indoors.
For us, hell yes
Sure does! Just get an absolute model. It comes with the soft velvet roller head for wood floors. Or if you do the upright, purchase the flat out head tool for wood tools. Do not use these vacuums on carpet powder or kitty litter. It clogs them up.
sending my love from Frankfurt Germany, love your chanel i have been following you for 10 years on youtube and allways find all my answers on your chanel
Guten Tag! Thanks for the follow ❤️
I had the Dyson Animal, awesome machine, I absolutely loved it! I recently bought the Bissell Helix Turbo Pet Hair Eraser, and I find it every bit as good as the Dyson Animal... but hair doesn't get caught around the brush of the Bissell, and it's half the price of the Dyson! My Dyson lasted 7 years of absolute abuse (large, long haired, very floofy cat who sheds his weight in hair daily, year-round), so we'll see how long the Bissell goes, but so far I'm very impressed. I still have my Bosch Unlimited, the batteries aren't as good as they claim, but the vacuum itself still going strong after 2 years of very hard work. I'm still sad that Lux left the game, they used to be top of the market in New Zealand before Dyson took over.
I love Dyson. Pricey, but definitely worth it. I have a full size corded vacuum, I've easily had it for 10 years or more and it still works great. I have mostly carpet, but wanted something easier to use on hard floors and just got the Omniglide. I love it. It's super lightweight and so easy to use.
Exactly. You pay for what you get 👏🏼

You’re channel is beyond perfect!! Saving my mental health here, love all of these!!
I heard, actually, it doesn't pick up the hair so well. I have seen demonstration where the vacuuming was done and after the brooming of the carpet. It was astonishing how much hair was left behind. I believe they are big on name. They become a trade mark, and due to that many people don't "seem to find" any fault with it. It i like they not suppose to be bad, they are Dyson after all. The price is very high too and they are never on sale. Which makes it totally unaffordable.
So is it worth it?
Honestly it can not even suck a tini tiny lego.,,
It is just a hype.,, the Bissell lightwoight 3 in 1 is even a better picker upper
I went for m using a Kirby to the V11 Absolute. I haven't used my Kirby since. The Dyson is fantastic.
I miss vacuums of the 70s. They were more powerful and used bags. Felt so much cleaner. I think we had an Electrolux .
Buy a henry if you want no bullshit bagged reliability. There's a reason why those things are in the back of construction vans all the time
Yeah but they're not. It's your opinion vs engineer decisions. Do a scientific test and you'll know you're wrong.
I was looking at Dyson but like the features of the Shark stick better. Plus Dysons can't stand upright on their own without a wall mount.
Which shark stick?? I'm really looking something like Dyson for quick cleanup of hardwood floors
That is my second biggest complaint about my Dyson, besides the lousy battery life.
Girl!!! Perfect timing! I want to upgrade my cordless vacuum for black friday!
I have hardwood floors with 3 rugs, and I have 3 cats. I own the Dyson Omni-glide which works well with cat fur and litter on the floor. I also have the Dyson Animal 2 (corded) for the rugs. My house is about 2000 square feet and I need both vacuums mainly because of the cats.
I’m 5’ tall and petite. I have a dyson animal v11 and it’s a height challenge for me to remove canister from the stick to empty and to put back together. Also with a small petite wrist the weight is heavy for my hand and arm. I wish it was lighter in weight. I love this vacuum unfortunately it’s made for average height humans.
Next time you're in the market for a new vacuum, I would check out the Dyson Omni-Glide. I think you'll be impressed with the size and light weight. It won't last as long, but it might make for a better vacuuming experience for you.
Take a look at the Miele Classic C1 canister vacuum or the LG CordZero A9 cordless vacuum. Both have height adjustable extension wands for short and tall people.
Yay first like and comment. Love your channel. Happy holidays to all.
Happy Holidays Christine!
I have a V8 for my apartment and love it! Very cool lights, lasers and long hair technology on the other sizes 💡
V8's are perfect for apartments. Great choice 👏🏼
@@user-en5ee8wr5o Thanks!
First! I am on the market for a Dyson! Perfect timing!
Woohoo! Thanks for watching Cindi!
Yes! Same here.. so glad that you're doing this review/ video
I've spoken with repairman in the vacuum cleaner business and they say all the big box stores sell is junk including the dyson which he says he hears horrible things about and that break down all the time. They said if you want decent vacuum cleaners talk to a repairman/store and they will show you some that may be a little more expensive but like an Electrolux will last for decades instead of 2 years. Just passing along what he said
Would love your suggestion on the best vacuum (any brand, make, model) for cleaning up after cats…litter/hair and general house dirt. I have tried numerous vacuums but none seem to be able to pick up cat litter. I have 2,000 sq ft home consisting of tile, hardwood and some long pile carpet. They usually kick it around. Thanks in advance
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! THE DYSON V8 IS THE ONE FOR ME!!!!!
I can't afford a Dyson, so I got a secondhand Roidmi f8 storm. It's actually wonderful if you have a small house. I always use it at the lowest setting and it still picks up everything, including pet hair (I have a very hairy, very sheddy dog... I know what I'm talking about, trust me). Battery lasts a decent amount of time if you don't use it on the higher setting, it's really sturdy, really lightweight and the attachments are so smart. It does not even take that long to fully recharge (approximately 2 hours) and it's so compact I can keep it in a drawer along with my spray mop so my cleaning supplies are out of sight. If I can think of any cons I'd say the bin is not that big, but it's not much of a deal if you empty it after every use.
The cordless vacuum is good for all the quick touchups and use in between using the regular vacuum, but it shouldn't be your only machine. You should also have a regular vacuum for the heavy duty deep cleaning and high traffic areas in the house or office space. But when I saw the price for the Dyson Outzise cordless, my wig was snatched and blasted into the Delta quadrant.
The Dyson we got sadly just never worked. We had to charge it forever, but no suction. Not worth the high price to have a useless thing hanging on the wall that promised to be light, cordless, efficient, stong. Miele is so good, if you can handle the high price tag, never fails.
For anyone in the UK with carpets. I say get a SEBO plug in if you want quality and longevity and a product that will last you years! The Samsung Jet cordless was quite good for a quality and feels better made than any Dyson.
I currently have the Dyson Cyclone v10 that came with Dyson Cyclone v10 dok. At this time, I need to get a battery replacement because I have been using it 3+ years. I would definitely like to consider the Dyson v15 Detect but I just wish that it had a dok similar to the Dyson Cyclone v10 dok. Love the video and thanks for sharing.
I had a cleaning company. However using commercial vacuum wasn’t going to work in the space of a home. So I bought a Shark. Great product.
We have the shark rocket pet pro and it’s just a hunk of junk! Doesn’t vacuum up anything. I’d never buy a shark product ever again
Just the video that I need for my black Friday shopping
Right 👏🏼On 👏🏼Time👏🏼
I got my dyson v10 cordless for $100 less, on black Friday sale. Every time I vacuum my carpets, I can not beleive the amount of dust in them, and I only use it on medium power. I love it. Now I love cleaning too.
Thanks to whomever commented about ordering on the Dyson website! So to whoever hasn’t purchased an upgraded version you can register your current Dyson on their website. Doing this gives you a 20% owners discount! I had purchased a used Dyson MultiFloor off Amazon for $200 and used it for several years. After reading that comment I tried it out and contacted Dyson chat 💬 and ordered thru a chat session and saved almost $200 🤩💵 I purchased the V12 which is slim and lightweight with the on and off switch! I received the vacuum the NEXT DAY for free shipping 😳 and I LOVE IT!!! The wads of hair I shed rolled right up in the canister and didn’t tangle! 🙌🏻 finally a vacuum that doesn’t require a pair of scissors to the roller after each use 😅
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! TOTALLY AWESOME CLEANING EDUCATION!!!! A MUST-WATCH!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!
Love my V11 but the light on the 15 looks very cool.
Can't wait to see what they come out with next! 🤩
Can u do the same review on Shark and Bissell? I have two Dysons. Corded and uncorded.
Yes, I'd love to see what Melissa has to say about Bissell
I doubt it because Shark & Bissell don't send her ones for free to try/have affiliate links.
Thank you! Now i know what to buy.. soooo helpful. Love you Melissa! 💜
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Melissa, what about the v10, what are your thoughts on that one?
Great review very helpful when choosing a Dyson so thank you.
To solve the problem of long hair or debris interfering with the rotating floor brush, I recently started a pre-vacuum step which really makes a difference and the vacuum is doing even a better job if that is possible. There are companies that make large tacky lint rollers with long handles to be used on the floor. It's great on the carpet, tile, laminate, hardwood. I no longer am cutting off the hair from the floor brush.
I like this cordless vacuum cleaner.
Seems i'ver learned alot about it recenttly. :)
Lazy kills the earth.
The first v8 did not have anywhere close to a 40 minute run time. Dyson is using a different battery on the newer ones. I have a v7 and the run time is terrible, but the newer one advertises a longer run time. The batteries are interchangeable but kind of expensive.
gotta pay to play.
@@DabblelyDiddly No I don't. People spending money on Dyson products house is no cleaner than mine. I have a corded Dyson Ball Animal that I paid $150 for, and a v8 that I paid $150 new. I still have other vacuums. I grew up using a Kirby.
@@drjd2real lol
None as MIELE is ten times better.. I am a cleaning expert too!🥰
Please share which Miele model and in what way it’s better? 🙏🏻😃
@@jacquieincolour9084 The Miele Complete C3 Cat and Dog Pro Vacuum Cleaner, Red
Will do a more than perfect job for you. The best way that I can explain it to you is if you use a dyson on a rug or carpet.. yes it will clean it however the miele gives it a next kind of NEW LIFE as it cleans much deeper 😇🥰
Thank god they have a v12. Perfectly in between the v11 and v15. It also has the laser technology on it as well. Just a smaller canister and battery life than the v15. But that being said, the v12 is lighter
13:20 make sure you physically train for 3 months before you use that wand. that hose is like a bowflex resistance band that will give you a work out.
My fav is the dyson ball cannister. With 2 hoses for optimum reach.
Canister ball is better than stand up. Stop hurting your shoulders with the heavy vacuum stand up.
Thanks for sharing!
We have a small house but....we have a large dog and 2 cats. I have the V11 and the Dyson Ball Animal. I keep the Dyson Ball upstairs because of the wall to wall. (I hate that carpet and will never ever do that again) Due to a spinal injury and a major surgery I can't carry the Dyson Ball downstairs sooooo, enter the V11. It's light enough for me to use and I can vacuum the whole downstairs on a single charge :) Big Dyson fan here.....huge!
Did i just get a Dyson last Monday? Yes
Am i still going to watch? Yes 😂
Are we happy to have you here watching? Yes
Me too!!
thank you for the video! it really helped
Thank you I have a Dyson now I’m going to see the Dyson in my store
I love my Dyson but absolutely hate the cordless version. I purchased the V11 outsize cordless vacuum and I am not a fan. First of all the having to hold the trigger constantly is a big pain in the a** and the fact that the mini version you showed has an off/on switch proves Dyson can put this on a cordless so Dyson if you are listening get rid of the dam trigger to turn a cordless off and on. Secondly the dam thing is heavy so using most of the tools that I got with it are pretty much useless because I cannot lift the dam thing. Thirdly the fact that it cannot stand on its own is a pain. Yes you get the wall mount but I don't have a place in my home where I can mount it and have access to a plus where it's not out in the open. Darn thing has fallen over so many times I'm surprised it still works. And lastly cleaning takes twice as long. When I use it I have to do my basic vacuum. Then I have to go lay it down switch out the tool and go back around the house to use the attachment to clean the floor boards and dust. I'm glad I didn't get rid of my corded Dyson. I was so excited to get the cordless but it has been a big let down given how expensive it is. As others have mentioned save yourself the price tag and look for comparable vacuums that are cheaper or go with the corded vacuum if you can afford it.
I’ve had Dyson for the last 10-15 years and was pretty happy with them. But I’ve gone down a different path and bought a Bissell stick vac. Sorry Dyson but this machine is amazing !! Went over the carpet with my Dyson and then the Bissell and I couldn’t believe the extra dirt the Bissell picked up. In fairness my Dysons were older models.
I just ordered that Dyson Ball Animal 2 Pro because of your review. I love your video's and trust your opinion. I have a cordless dyson but it runs out in 20 mins. I need something with more power. Thank you clean my space. not only did you help me in my minimalist journey years ago but now you're helping me take care of the pet hair in my house. having 2 dogs , 2 cats and 1 bird if a full time job.
I love to hear that! Thank you for all your support!
I have a v11 to supplement the central vac. I'm having issues with the bin and run time is very low. If you run it in high you might get 6 minutes tun time. Central vac is best if your building new or your house currently has it. The unit is mounted in the garage typically so any dust that escapes is in garage not your living space not to mention lots of suction!
I have 2 original yellow DC07. One for upstairs and one for downstairs. We also have a Dyson v8 I bought a few years ago. The brush on the dc7 keep clogging with dog hair and human hair. Just yesterday I had to finish my upstairs with my v11 because the yellow upright brush is so clogged it will not pick anything up. I wondering if I should get the V15 to replace the DC07 or get the ball animal total clean.
Been using the Dyson V5?6?7? (cannot recall exactly) animal for years. Worked like a charm until last year an issue with the filter closer not snapping shut after you empty the bin. Eyeing cordless for years but I was one of those who was reluctant based on bin size and holding a charge long enough to complete the whole house. My teenage daughter helps with vacuuming sometimes and. got a lot less help after it became an issue with the machine. Last spring I sprung for the V15 on a good sale price. Mostly after research the 15 seems to have solved the charge time and the bin is almost as large as my old vacuum. But guess what? After purchase it literally it sat unopened the box for 6 months. I notice I will occasionally let myself buy a luxury item like this vacuum (after a long wait deliberating) but have a hard time letting myself use it. Just me?
SO I am finally putting it together today while watching this video! Two things are a bit of a bummer. I didn't recall that it has 2 main heads, looks like you need to switch from the laser head for hard flooring to the large anti tangle comb head for carpet. What I liked about my previous machine was the auto sensing from hard to soft flooring and one head. I like not too many tool changes and choices and this has a ton in the box. I think I probably will not use them all.
The other bummer is on reading the instructions you have to be careful hanging the wall mount that there's no wiring, plumbing, or air ducts behind the wall you drill. into to hang it. We've lived in a rented home for 6 years with unfortunately very cheap soft drywall. I doubt I could hang it anywhere (perhaps with a stud behind) but also I have no idea how to tell that there isn't any wiring or pipes behind the wall. Especially if I choose to hang it above a socket so it can charge, there could be wiring behind. The closet where I planned to hang it has no sockets in there, so if I successfully found a good location to hang it where an outlet is, it will hang like an eyesore in. a high traffic space or next to my kitchen table haha. But already because I'm renting I cannot risk wall damage or inadvertent plumbing or wiring damage. Thus there goes my silly little dream of hanging it neatly on a wall charging dock out of sight but accessible like in those clean with me videos by bigtime rich youtubers haha.
Fortunately it does have an option to charge just the main component with the handheld device, which will sit awkwardly on my floor but at least I can still charge it! And some part of my tired brain must have thought of all this months ago because it seems I also bought a vacuum floor stand where you can hang it, which I will keep in my cleaning closet when not in use! I hope it solves this concern. The only downside I think is that either it needs to charge and then put away. A week later when I go to vacuum it may have lost a lot of charge, then I must charge again before use. Or if I don't bother and charge it first before use, it's a bit of bummer if we are ready to vacuum and realize we must wait to charge each time first. Just goes to show that sometimes efforts to solve an issue in life can create new unforeseen issues.
Maybe I will post an update on how my vacuum saga turns out haha! I will say that in the grand scheme of life this is a very small first world problem to have and I know I am fortunate just to be able to own such a luxe item in the first place, which I probably don't even need and most in this world cannot afford. I think it will be a very nice device, very useful. My hope was to enjoy vacuuming more and vacuum more often without tripping over, vacuuming over, and managing the cord, which would motivate me to keep my house cleaner with more ease. Because I am a very stressed busy and tired single mom. And my daughter is keen to try it, so if she helps more- bonus! It's also much more lightweight than the corded animal. Cheers! xo
We have 3 cats, wool rugs over vinyl floors so we need flooring to carpet. We have a reconditioned Dyson Animal V7 cordless stick vac. Its really a nice vacuum. Our house is a 2000 sq feet ranch and it does a great job. Some days I don’t get the entire house done on one charge but I leave the bedrooms for another session. No big deal. There are only 2 of us who live in the home. We had a 2000 sq ft Victorian house and it did an amazing job there too. We have a full sized Dyson too but it is a heavy beast. I rarely use it. When I do a deep clean, I bring out the beast.,
Thanks for the great description.
Which one should i get for engineered hardwood floor?
I work with hoovers everyday and I would say Henry hoover works best not battery operated but just keeps working for years . Dyson is great for a quick run around but not for a full home cleaning.
I'm getting the large purple one myself my daughter used one and she loved it
I want one of these fore base boards furniture detail cleaning!!
Mass vacuuming however I use roomba💜
I love my rumba,if I'm spelling that right!!
It adds Hours to my life !!
I come home& my floors are done, it's taken care of!
Need to get the roomba vacuum and mop combo.
I have my moms animal that's about 9 or 10 years old, I fell in love with it the moment I barrowed it about 13 or 15 years ago when she first indulged in the dyson animal. Then when she found her new animal ball I was gifted her pride & joy original animal . I'm now smittened by the V11 although I'm loving the laser one ....

I have the Dyson oversized love it !! ❤
Dyson V15 makes cleaning fun imo lol. I got addicted to vacuum'ing. The weight also put some strain on my arm which I think it's a great workout lol
Was hoping a review on the canister model but there's another video. Thanks for the info!
VERY INFORMATIVE VIDEO 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you so much for this tutorial ! We got 2 dogs and a cat so we are getting the V15.
Love these videos!! So helpful 🤩
Thanks for watching Margie!
I just ordered a v8 Absolute - I think it’s a good starter dyson that has allot of versatility. I’m a single first-time home owner with a mix of hardwood, tile and carpet floors. I have a Cape home.
The v8 absolute is absolutely fantastic in my opinion. It’s saved my life
I have both hardwood and carpet floor, and no kids and pets at home. Can I go for v8 , as the other higher version model seems expensive .
What dyson should i get i have mostly carpet and a very shedding cat.
So helpful and informative 🙌🏼
I just ran across your video. I was a little worried about listening to it as I just bought a Dyson Cyclone V10. My house is all hardwood and I have 3 cats and the fur is terrible. My place is about 1100 sq ft. Seems the cats are shedding worse than ever this winter. I never vacuumed often enough because it’s such a pain to pull out the canister vacuum and once I start I need to do the whole place d/t the litter and fur. Hoping with this stick vac I’ll be able to more quickly do the main level more frequently
Dyson has the ball multi floor 2, the slim ball and the small ball corded upright vacuums that weight less and have the same seal system that is third party tested and performance as the cordless machines.
Thank you! Very informative. The V8 is perfect for me.

And add golden retriever hair in the mix lol. Idk if chord-less will keep up, but i could be wrong I’d love to know😅
Thank you ....v15 is the one
Glad I could help!
I own every single on of these except the ball but I do own the ball canister with permanent hepa filter it don't ever need changing or washing
Wow, Dyson loyalty 👏🏼
Thank you for this video! I want a cordless vacuum but have a fairly big house so didn’t ever think it would be worth it and also have pets that shed a lot so didn’t think they would be the best option but appreciate you going into detail about all the different types!
we have Dyson V7/V8/V11 batteries for USA guys, we would send it to your address directly as gift only for a video, pm me if you are interested.
I will certainly order the v11 outsize. Thanks for the suggestion.
Do you are anyone else have ANY suggestions on a good Steam mop???
I tried searching your channel, but couldn't see a recommendation for a mop style cleaner? I just moved into a 1900sqft house with all hard floors. Half wood, half tile. I own two dysons and a roomba, but I am now trying to figure out for mopping, what should I use? I've seen recs for Bissell crosswave and tineco. What do you use?
Wonderful information. I'd like the V 11 Outsize!
Thanks for all of this great info! I love Dyson and have used them for over 10 years or so. I’ve always used the upright plug in vacuums but am looking for a cordless. I just hate holding down the trigger to keep it going…other than the smallest, lightest one do the other have an on/off switch or do you have to hold it down the whole time?
From my knowledge, only the Omni-Glide in their stick collection has the on/off switch. The rest have the trigger. I can understand the pain point with the trigger, so maybe a Dyson Ball is better suited?
It's done to maximise battery life. It improves efficiency as you only press when you need it. With cordless vacuum battery life is key so it's imperative they maximise that through forced features or removal of some.
So glad you posted this comment because I wouldn’t have known and would have been upset to find out that I had to hold down the trigger with my arthritic hands!
Dyson V12 is the best solution, if you are looking for a strong vacuum, that has an on/off switch. I have it and love it :)
I just purchased the V12 with the on and off switch and I probably won’t buy another stick vacuum unless it has this option! It is great 😊
