Tons of reviews show that the single-fluffy hardwood floor head works on carpet too, so it's nice to see it actually works for moms who have bad backs, or we're just too lazy haha. There's also a v10 Animal version with just the hard floor head, so maybe this helps people save some money
I have the same one. I lean mine against the wall or a (closet) door. In a 90 degree angle. And it never falls down. Aren't you overfilling the bin? There's a max fill line. I empty mine afterwards and it never is completely full. I can actually vacuum my whole house with this. Love my Dyson V10 absolute.
It defo stays up of i our it against a wall but not if I put it on my worktop.. it does stay if it’s on carpet though, so maybe it’s my wooden floors which makes the head slip? I’m not too sure? Xxx
I love my Dyson V8 Absolute. My cat has really soft fluffy fur which sticks to everything. The Dyson makes it so easy to de-fur the carpets and soft furnishings. Oh and I agree - it's THE best for vacuuming the car!
I just think Dyson do everything so well.. yes their products are expensive but they are also such great quality.. I tried the shark at my friends house and I have to say.. it really didn’t compare to this vacuum at all! Xxx
if you're getting so much debris at the top it's because you don't empty it often enough. You should have emptied it after the 2 bedrooms. When you hit the end that is just way too full.
Hahah that’s exactly what I thought when I was editing the video! Haha I told u it’s not a very advanced review.. just a mum who has children who make lots of mess kind of review!!!! I changed it though after I said hoover and then started calling it a vacuum!!! Lol xxx
@@KerryWhelpdale I think we all call it a hoover. lol. My ex used to drive me crazy telling me it wasn't a hoover, it was a vacuum cleaner. I definitely want a cordless stick but think I might have to stick with hoover, they are cheaper. looool. A hoover hoover.
The reason you didn’t get the cornflakes in because you used the wrong head! The fluffy soft brush is for hardfloors and you should be using the bristle brush head for carpets. 😅
Kerry Whelpdale hi, they aren’t wrong either but the fluffy head is meant to pick up big debris on hard floors. You could of course use it on the carpet but it’s not optimum - especially when you are limited in battery duration I cannot see your bristle brush head clearly from your video but if it’s the enhanced version, the middle portion of the carpet brush has been upgraded to catch bigger pieces of debris - it has a red middle gap. I’ll see whether I can include the photo for you
Kerry Whelpdale I was contemplating on buying the v10 which was why I was endlessly watching all v10 videos on UA-cam and popping into the Dyson stores for many tests and stumbled on your video I ended up getting the last of the corded Big Ball Cinetic available simply because it’d be lighter to vacuum ceilings (you only have to lift the wand and brush whereas for the v10 as light as they are, you have to carry both the wand and the motor). Also the cord is extremely long so I don’t unplug more than twice which is in my mind almost as convenient as a cordless 😅 I cannot seem to post photos in these replies section so I’ve dropped you a message on your Facebook
When Dysons first came out I loved mine it hoovered up dirt like no other. My last two however have not been as good and the suctioning has reduced over time. To have them serviced in the first few years is free so make sure you use this. After this point is £75. X
The 2 biggest mistakes with these cleaners are 1. Going over the max line in the bin, which can lead to dust accumulation in the cyclones and elsewhere, and 2. Cleaning the inside of the bin and the shroud, since the residual dust acts as a lubricant as it were for the release mechanism.
How does that even happen!!! Mine would be exactly the same if I vacuumed every day too.. I didn’t know I had that much stuff come off everything!! Lol xxx
I had a regular dyson years ago and I hated it (so bulky and heavy). The new desk sears everywhere tho and I’ve been thinking I want one but I have to admit that needing to hold the trigger all the time does seem tedious.
My friend said that about holding the trigger would annoy her but to be honest.. the trigger is so easy to squeeze in that you don’t even notice you are holding it in.. it’s just like you are holding the handle of the Dyson xxx
denicekimberly Hey Denice Lidl were selling their own Silvercrest one for 49.99. It is really good, you press on button and go, no trigger to hold on as you Hoover. I had a Vax one and this is soooo much better and cheaper. I can do whole house on one charge.
Great video, on the carpet head, that has the adjust about gates, how do you use them, my house is majorit carpet. I gues leave them all the way open?? I’m not sure. Thanks again.
Hello Kerry~ I have a question , any chance you can give us a short update on how well the V10 is holding up after a few months of usage? Thank you so much!
+J Law it’s still so brilliant.. battery runs for such a long time and I can still hoover my whole house on one charge :) suction is also still amazing :) I love it so much still :) xxx
I’ve just upgraded from the v6 to this one. Emptying is so much easier now; makes it worth the cost alone for me. As a wheelchair user with three indoor cats I wouldn’t ever go back to a different brand
I’ve always called ‘vacuuming’ my house ‘hoovering’ so it’s just natural for me to say it in conversation!! This isn’t a sponsored Dyson video either so I guess it doesn’t matter what I call it?? I was doing this review for my viewers, not for Dyson so they can’t get annoyed with me!!! Lol!! Xxx
Kerry Whelpdale Hoover just happens to be the brand name of a competitor. :) It’s quite ironic to call the brand you are reviewing, sponsored or otherwise, by a competitor’s brand name. ;)
Dyson stick vacs are POS. They're clumsy to use and you have constant down time between emptying it, charging it, and washing the bin and the filters. Why would you want to take more time and add extra tasks to cleaning? It is faster, more efficient and much less costly to use an Oreck XL commercial. The Orecks also are better for your family's health. Dyson sticks weigh about 6 pounds empty with all the weight at the top, which makes them clumsyj; and to keep the Dyson stick going you have to hold down the switch or it stops. I had to empty the bin in the Dyson sticks for every room or every other room that was vac'd. It didn't stay charged long enough to do the whole house, so I had to wait 3-4 hours for it to recharge if I was vac'ing the whole house. The sticks entailed emptying the vac 5 or 6 times every time I cleaned the entire house with a 3-4 hour wait halfway through. The Oreck got plugged in twice and I could have the entire house done in a little over half the time than using the stick. The Dyson stick required deep cleaning once a month and rinsing the bin after every use. The Oreck requires deep cleaning once a year and a bag change once a month or once every other month. It's hard for me to believe why anyone with a brain would ever consider a Dyson! I don't have any interest in either brand, but I do have an interest in the time and effort and efficiency of getting the dirty work done around here; and also getting the biggest bang for my buck! Most places where you purchase a vac allows 30 days to bring them back if you don't like them. Try both brands yourself and you will see that what I'm talking about is true. Also read the recommended user maintenance so you know what you're expected to do as to not void the warranty.
I live in the UK and when I use a vacuum to clean my home I say I am ‘hoovering’ my house.. so if that’s what I say.. then that’s what I say!! Ever so sorry if that offends you for some reason! Xxx
It not really that stupid unless I was doing a paid review for Dyson.. which I am not.. so if I say ‘I hoover my house’.. does it really matter??? In my opinion.. I would say not!!!! Bigger things to worry about in my opinion!!!! Xxx
@@KerryWhelpdale nope ya not the only1. Looked it up also and it does mean vacuuming. Ppl just like to think they are being clever or just like to dig ppl out over the smallest of things. Just ignore them. Well all hoover up with a vacuum. Lol
Why are you using the hard floor attachment on carpet? It’s why it didn’t clean well on the carpet.
Tons of reviews show that the single-fluffy hardwood floor head works on carpet too, so it's nice to see it actually works for moms who have bad backs, or we're just too lazy haha.
There's also a v10 Animal version with just the hard floor head, so maybe this helps people save some money
The rubber pad is to lean on walls NOT flat work tops
I have the same one. I lean mine against the wall or a (closet) door. In a 90 degree angle. And it never falls down. Aren't you overfilling the bin? There's a max fill line.

Excellent honest review Kerry xx
So glad you liked it :) thank you for watching xxx
Why do ppl always have to use it on maximum suction power? Suction level 1 is just enough for general cleaning
ua-cam.com/video/aP_Z3s8Zas0/v-deo.html
I find mode 2 works best for carpets and unpowered tools and mode 1 for the fluffy head and upholstery.
I agree I dont understand it either. Its lack of knowledge I guess
if you're getting so much debris at the top it's because you don't empty it often enough. You should have emptied it after the 2 bedrooms. When you hit the end that is just way too full.
Great video! The soft roller attachment is best for hard floors, not carpet though! But very helpful video!!
I always get confused which head if for what surface!! Lol xxx
Dyson are gonna love you calling it a Hoover. lool. Hoover is a brand. It is a vacuum cleaner. Looks good but too expensive.
Hahah that’s exactly what I thought when I was editing the video! Haha I told u it’s not a very advanced review.. just a mum who has children who make lots of mess kind of review!!!! I changed it though after I said hoover and then started calling it a vacuum!!! Lol xxx
Haha just means a vacuum hoover, to suck something up.
Haha yes that’s what I think! I’m so used to calling a vacuum a hoover so it just comes out of my mouth so naturally!! Haha xxx
@@KerryWhelpdale I think we all call it a hoover. lol. My ex used to drive me crazy telling me it wasn't a hoover, it was a vacuum cleaner. I definitely want a cordless stick but think I might have to stick with hoover, they are cheaper. looool. A hoover hoover.
I have been calling a Hoover a Hoover for 40 years. It only seemed to become a problem in the last few years.
Try placing the flat part ON TOP of the table or counter & you might be pleasantly surprised.
Congratulations on new vacuum cleaner. Such a nice gift 🎁. Personally can't justify buying vacuum cleaner for 450£.💷💷💷
It is very expensive I do agree.. it’s an investment piece I guess that you would have for years and years xxx
I have my vacuum for years anyway, so would not be paying £450.
Happy new year Kerry -- very best wishes to you and your family and happy vlogging for 2019. Xx
Thank you so much and a very very happy new year to you and your family too 😘😘😘😘
I like that you call it a Hoover, its funny!
Lol I can’t help it!! Totally habit 🙈🙈🙈
Very informative and useful review, well done. :)
So glad you liked it :) thank you for watching xxx
The reason you didn’t get the cornflakes in because you used the wrong head! The fluffy soft brush is for hardfloors and you should be using the bristle brush head for carpets. 😅
I was told to use the fluffy head when picking up larger items as it has a bigger suction hole to suck them up? That’s what Dyson told me!!! Xxx

FoodieForce Lucy hello..what service do Dyson offer. Thank you
Ria if your machine is not working or underperforming and still in warranty they will service and repair
@@FoodieForce Thank you. Happy New Year to you.
I wanted to see a demo of you unlocking the cylinder on the carpet tool to remove and clean it. I can’t figure out what I’m supposed to do.
Oh ok.. I can do a video on how to clean your Dyson v10 and show you in that one :) xxx
Would you still be happy with it if you had purchased it yourself, and do you still use it thanks
Yes I absolutely love my dyson.. I’ve got my mum to buy one for herself and she said cleaning has never been easier now :) xxx
V10 is a incredible Hoover 2019. Got to say though your filter shouldn't look like that unless you press the trigger when the bin is open
+Chernobyl oh really?? This was brand new before I used it!! What should it look like? I need to check it now! Lol xxx
@@KerryWhelpdale I've used mine for a week and my filter is spotless. All depends how soiled your house is
Instead of the rubber pad, they could have just made it stand like the Ryobi.
What do we want: self standing stick vac
What do we get: rubber pad
The 2 biggest mistakes with these cleaners are 1. Going over the max line in the bin, which can lead to dust accumulation in the cyclones and elsewhere, and 2. Cleaning the inside of the bin and the shroud, since the residual dust acts as a lubricant as it were for the release mechanism.
I vacuum the bedroom daily and i fill the cylinder, it's amazing how much stuff gets in there.
How does that even happen!!! Mine would be exactly the same if I vacuumed every day too.. I didn’t know I had that much stuff come off everything!! Lol xxx
@@KerryWhelpdalethank god its not only me. Btw that brush with the moving thing in the middle is an upholstery brush for couches and mattresses etc.
Oohhhh I DID NOT KNOW THAT!!! I’ve honestly been wondering for ages what the he’ll that adaptor is used for 😂 thank you xxx
Nice review. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked it and thanks so much for watching xxx

I liked my V6, I love my V8 but that V10 appears unwieldy for tight spaces like the car.
The car adaptors are really great for it.. I have two boys and a dog and it’s brilliant at getting up all of their mud 😂😂
Great video, on the carpet head, that has the adjust about gates, how do you use them, my house is majorit carpet. I gues leave them all the way open?? I’m not sure. Thanks again.

It really is so good isn’t it! I can feel it gripping the floor with its suction it’s so powerful :) I do love it :) xxx

Yay :) you will love it xxx
I’ve just upgraded from the v6 to this one. Emptying is so much easier now; makes it worth the cost alone for me. As a wheelchair user with three indoor cats I wouldn’t ever go back to a different brand
I agree.. so much easier to empty:) I also love Dyson too much to swap to any other brand too :) xxx
Where did you get your desk from?
It’s from a website called Kuci Design.. they sell such lovely products :) xxx
Maybe I missed it.... why did you upgrade V6 to V10? Was it worth it?
Lol... Rewached it ... jup I missed it :) thanks for the review
Hehhehe I loved my V6.. but I do have to admit.. the V10 is so much better.. huge thing to invest in if you already have one thiugb😬😬
