I am forever having to get the vacuum out and hoover up all the bits of ground up rusks and bits of dirt the babies manage to accumulate and I was fed up of dragging around a heavy cumbersome hoover around the house and so I treated myself to this dyson... what a treat! Long gone are the days where a treat would be a dvd or a night out!
I bought it from curry's for £200 and I think it was a good spend.
This dyson has a ball which is uses to navigate its way round. This makes it much easier to get around the carpets as it can swivel 360 degrees with ease. At first when I plugged it in and had a little test drive with it it felt very strange almost unnatural to be able to have it be so flexible! After about two or three attempts I soon got used to it and now I wouldn't be without it!
The ball definitely helps it move its way around the carpet. It sucks up far more than my other one did just from it's ability to get around the carpet alone!
The capacity of the section which holds the dirt isn't quite as large as it would be with ahoover bag, but then again I think I always just kept putting off changing a bag for as long as possible so the bag would always be so stuffed it was fit to burst! And it doesn't really matter that it doesn't hold a great deal as it's so very easy and quick to empty. You literally just unclip the cyldiner and empty it out then clip it back in and it takes no time at all!
The hoover tools are all very easy to use too and they slot away pretty easily unlike with my old one which used to take me ages to try to figure out which bit went where and eventually i'd give up and just leave them off!
This dyson is also very easy to clean. There are two buttons which need to be unscrewed at the bottom and then you can get into the foot of the dyson which, I usually find, is clogged up with big clumps of hair and things so once I clean that out and button it back in place the performance of the dyson is back to it's amazing abilities on day one!
Occasionally I find this dyson just stops sucking up things and it really frustrates me but there is a reset button which you press and magically it starts working again! I have no idea why this happens in the first place but that reset button must be magical!
It's quite light too which is good for carting up and down stairs and it's very slim so fits away under my stairs nicely.
I am not scoring this 5/5 as one thing that annoys me is the fact it falls over SO EASILY! When I'm hoovering the stairs or I have the hoover tool stretched up high to get a cob web from the ceiling I'm always finding the dyson tipping over and thudding onto the carpet. I'm sure it's worse than my old hoover was with this trick and I wonder if it's something to do with the ball mechanism or the fact it's lighter.
But all in all I would say it's a really good buy. I have had no problems with it and I use it virtually every day!
