Advantages: Large collecting bin and great suction! Disadvantages: Not so Lightweight, and Power Cord could be longer.
I bought my Dyson DC25 Animal about a month ago now, and have been very pleasantly surprised by the results.
My old vacuum worked perfectly and I was more than happy with it, but once it started emitting smoke during use, I knew it was time to purchase a replacement.
I did a little internet research and as we have a cat, the animal dyson appeared to be our best option.
I was intrigued by the "ball" by Dyson and went to Curry's to have a closer ... ...turn of the wrist the Dyson goes exactly where you want it to go.
I've found that the suction is incredible. With my previous vacuum my carpets always looked clean and I thought that I was getting my cat's hair up too.
However after using the Dyson for the first time, I realised that it wasn't quite as good as I'd thought.
After going through my 3 bed home thoroughly, the bin was full (which I found quite embarrassing)
Since then it's been used ...

Advantages: Powerful, will manovere well with a bit of practice Disadvantages: Still quite heavy, not that easy to follow instructions
...My old machine was the Dyson Animal (not the ball version) and it was heavy and a bit difficult to manovere very easily. After seeing the ads on tv which showed how effortlessly it seemed to glide around, I was very keen to buy it. I am happy with the machine, but there are a few things that are not so good. Firstly when I got it out the box to put it together, I found the instructions are not that great. Mostly they are just pictures showing where ... ...The dust container on this Dyson is a bit smaller than my old model, so I guess I will be emptying it that bit more often. However I thought I had broken it when I first emptied it as I took the container off the machine and promptly tried to pull the handle up as I did with the old machine, on this on you push it down to open it (I told you I am no good with following instructions!) This meant that the handle went out of alignment and I could not ...

Advantages: Very light and very manoeverable. Disadvantages: Bit too light and moves around a lot.
The Dyson DC25 all Floors vacuum cleaner is a revolution in houshold cleaning. Not only is very good at picking up small pieces of dust and dirt,but the filters are washable which makes it cheaper than some other types of cleaners. I love the way it manoevers around furniture and as it has a small and low head it can get under the edges of furniture as well as under my radiators. Something my old Dyson couldn't do.
It's very light weight, weighing ... ...The only draw back of this weight is that when you are using the extension hose to clean furniture, curtains or to get behind things, i found that if stretched to it;s limit the machine would move around and has caught me in the ankles several times. This is a little annoying as i have had to stand with one foot on the machine to stop it moving around.
It comes with a 5 year guarantee which is not bad for household equipment, but the replacement ...

Advantages: Manouvreable, easy to use. Disadvantages: Quite expensive
I have a number of pets (almost too many to count) that leave hair all over the house and after my vacuum cleaner gave up the ghost i started looking for a new one. I was originally drawn to the DC25 because of the fact it will pick up animal hair. After using it for the first couple of times i noticed that it had far better sucking power (alright that probably isn't the technical term) than any other vacuum cleaner i have ever owned. My carpet has ... ...the attachments on board and they all have places to clip onto the vacuum which is a great thing for me as i usually put things down somewhere and completely forget where i put them. The amazing thing about it is that instead of having the typical standard four wheels it has a rolling ball mechanism which makes it so much more manouvreable and easier to access to spots you never could without moving the furniture with a normal vacuum cleaner. In ...

Advantages: Glides around the corners and really gets pet hair up Disadvantages: The crord, heavy to push aroundand the cylider is a lot better
...this recently as my old dyson was on it's way out, I didn't have a animal one before and I have a dog so I knew I wanted a animal vaccum cleaner, I loved my old dyson and you can't beat them!!
I waned a change so I got the upright, I had a cylider one before and a knew I wanted a ball too.
So that was it the DC25 animal was it!!
I am so pleased with it but I think the cylider one was better, the cord was longer and easier to get around!! It had ...

Advantages: Ball technology makes cleaning quick and fun Disadvantages: A little on the expensive side
The latest Dyson and best yet. Have bought a few dysons and this is definitely the best and without a doubt the best cleaner on the market.
The unique ball design brings dare i say it a bit of fun to cleaning and you can whizz any surface in minutes. Wouldn't bother forking out the extra cash for the animal model as this model can handle most of the cat and dog hairs in my house with ease.
The wand (the stick thing you pull out) can reach all the ... ...the main body at the bottom and comes with 3 tools.
1. a thin nozzle which i use for getting into tricky places and edges of rooms. 2. The thin nozzle with brush which i use to clean pet hairs of them sofa etc and 3. a flat nozzle for doing had to reach areas and stairs.
The price is a little steep but overall a great product and with 5 year part and labour you cant go wrong. ...

Advantages: Picks pet hair up well at first Disadvantages: heavy and bulky, lost its first brilliance
Well when I bought this one we had two dogs, one longhaired. When used at first it was fantastic and I thought 'Great' I've found one that does what it says on the tin!. However a few months down the line it worked properly less and less, missing hairs, soon getting bunged up etc. Even when taken apart and cleaned properly with new filters I never got that 'first' good feeling. I also found the hoover a little heavy and I wasn't keen on the telescopic ...

Advantages: I made the right choice in testing it Disadvantages: I didn't test it sooner
Hello, just a quick review.
This is a very fancy vacuum cleaner with some delightful looks. I was able to test this and I think I made the right choice in testing this. My friend says it is good and everything. I am happy with pipe and it suck up all the spiders and everything, even sucked up dust. It has a floor changer that II find works very well, you can clean carpets and hardfloors with ease. It never loses suction and is very light to push ... ...the right choice in testing this and I seriously recommend you purchase this from my testing. If I could test another vacuum I would only ever test a Dyson.
A real top quality testing from a quality tester, I recommend that you test this today at Debenhams, it cost 399 there. ...

Advantages: ease of use basically the wayyou can move it anywere without effort Disadvantages: i could not honestly find any disadvantages about this hoover
...So we came back to Dyson and this model is absolutely BRILLIANT. The design is stunning, the extendable hose is great, it is even easy to empty. And yes, the ball does make it more manoeverable (but I wouldnt buy it just for the ball feature). It is quiet compared to other machines, and the suction is superb. We have only used it for 3 weeks now, but each time I really do marvel at how good it is. However, how robust is it? Not only does this need ...

Advantages: easy to use; not too heavy when going up or down stairs; the noise is bearable, not too bad. Disadvantages: none that I can think of.
...think I have seen a Dyson here in South Africa but the vacuum cleaner I have is an LG upright that looks a lot like the DC25.
I have found the machine to be very effective on all floor surfaces.
It is a bit noisy on the tile floors but it saves time; I need only one item instead of trailing around the house with a vacuum cleaner + broom + dustpan + hand broom.
The newer trend to do away with those messy and dusty bags that need to be emptied constantly ... ...simpler just having to empty the container about once every 2nd week depending on the number of times a week you use it.
I clean the container under the tap after each trip to the bin to empty it. This stops any dust/dirt from clinging to the filter and also avoids any horrid smells while in use.
The built-in attachments are also easy to get to and work very well. ...
