Dyson DC 15 THE BALL Allergy Silver/Yello

Advantages: All floor cleaning, ease of emptying, bagless, no suction loss.
Disadvantages: Cost, some potentially vulnerable components, hose reach is less than older models.

The Dyson ball all floors cleaner is overall a very well built vacuum cleaner that is a step forward in the innovation of vacuum cleaners. When people question what else can they do to improve the relatively unchanged vacuum cleaner to improve its functionality and performance, it seems that Dyson has yet again stepped up to the challenge and incorporated a clever unseen concept in its design. You could say they have taken the wheel and have gone ...
...reliable vacuum compared to earlier Dyson models. As a relatively new company in terms of age you can only assume that they have learnt from their "mistakes". If you visit their website it is only too apparent what extensive testing that goes into all their products with video demonstrations showing simulated repeat use of certain components and impact testing. Still if this doesn't reassure you enough retailers only seem too happy to extend warranties ... Read review

Advantages: Great for picking up pet hair, easy to move
Disadvantages: pricey,

The Dyson DC15 is a fantastic upright hoover. The revolutionary addition is "the ball" - this means that the hoover has a ball at its core instead of the usual wheels. This makes it super easy to manoeuvre and gets rid of the need to use a back and forth action. It promises to speed up the cleaning for you - and I must say - it really does! The ball does take a bit of getting used to as at first it's difficult to resist the usual way in which you ...
...The suction of the Dyson DC15 is second to none. It really lifts the dirt out of your carpets, we have 2 cats and it quickly removes their hair from our cream carpet which can look unclean very quickly. Apparently there was an initial problem with the cleaner falling over due to the ball design. Dyson have rectified this with a guard at the back of the cleaner that can be depressed with the foot to enable the use of the ball. The guard has to be ... Read review

Advantages: Balls twists and turns, cool wheels lift, bin, improved hose and nozzle, great suction, quiet
Disadvantages: None with the product, but Dyson charges for the 5 year guarantee

Brilliant! The new Dyson DC15 its actually fun to use! The Ball is fantastic. I cant believe Im actually enjoying vacuuming. I bought it to replace my very old 07 model which had taken enough abuse! Tesco online has a fantastic deal on at the moment, but I dont know when it will end, they are offering £100 off making it £218.97. This was the cheapest I could find after researching online for about two hours. When it arrived it was very simple ...
...air that comes out this Dyson is cleaner than the air that goes in, which is why Im using it for everything all over the house. The ball is trule brilliant, the hoover twists and turns so its very easy to push and get into all areas. I have carpets, vinyl flooring and hard wood floors and the Dyson is great on all of them. There are two wheels at the back which very cleverly fold up so you can get the Dyson into move angles and twists, its pretty ... Read review

Advantages: Lightness of use and suction
Disadvantages: Attachments and stair cleaning

...As usual with a Dyson the tube for cleaning the stairs is tight to pull and causes the unprepared to pull over the cleaner.( I have done this even though I was watching out for it!) Suction is excellent so far but we will put this to the test as a previous Dyson from 3 years ago lost suction and could not be rectified with cleaning of the filters. This one does seem to be lifting the carpet pile and removing most of what we ask of it.We have a medium ...
...there are no bits left after the DC15 has been in use. Price We got a good price of £275.00 from Currys by reserving on line. £350.00 in the shop. Usual poor service from the counter staff though on collection. Accessories There are various accessories for cleaning different surfaces, they are the usual plastic pointy one for getting in tight spaces, the soft brush is for upholstery, the one that is suitable for mattresses etc and a good one ...

Advantages: Suction power , Hose length , Easy to empty , Easy to Clean
Disadvantages: Beater bar gets wrapped easily with hair, directions a bit off.

The DC-15 came attractively packaged and all parts were secure and undamaged. Removing everything from the box was without hassle. The directions to assemble are mostly pictures with very little text, however after a little scratching of the head we got it put together. To judge the machines suction we first vacuumed the entire carpet with our old Hoover Windtunnel. ( The Hoover was getting replaced as half of the plastic parts were broken and it ...
...After running the DC-15 over the carpet we were absolutely amazed at the amount of fine sediment and dog hair that came out - it blew the Hoover away. Subsequent vacuums also produced a huge amount of dirt and hair. The more we vacuum the carpet the better its starting to look. The suction of the attatchment hose is also incredible - to the point where you have to be careful if you have long hair. ( The wife got hers caught ! ) A really nice feature ... Read review
