Advantages: Great sucking power, easy to use, easy to put away
Disadvantages: Not easy to store, specific storing method!

This is quite a popular vacuum as a lot of people i know have this particular one!!! One feature i hate, always will and always have is the storage method!!! you basically roll the vacuum head into a little concave indent! This means you also have to have the specific head on it!!! You cant stow it away with any other head except the man one! Even then it is so large to put into a cupboard or something! However it is relatively simple to use! Great ...
...is great and it has a cable retraction button so you don't have to worry about winding it up! Its not the best of the Dysons we have had but it certainly isn't the worst! It is very reliable and hasn't broke down once for me and it cleans very well! The main head has two features built in... A Brush and suck, or just a suck option!!! I received this vacuum relatively cheap, i think i secured it for around £120! It is great at cleaning, my favourite ... Read review

Dyson DC20 Animal Stowaway Pro : This Vacuum cleaner is 'THE BEST' I have ever used/owned. It beats the Kirby every time, cost wise, It out performs every other vacuum I have ever tried, as a Decorator I operate many clients vac's, none come close to the Dyson for efficient dust and paper collection. The brush floor tool is absolutely brilliant, whether you have pets or not.. just get one... it cleans right to the very edge of the carpet... no more ...
...exactly like that so its unobtrusive. All the tools are attatched to the vac, in easy reach.. not shoved in a cupboard, just press a button to disconnect the cleaning head, slip on the attatchment and hey presto... nuf sed! Just get one, you wont prove me wrong! sue c ... Read review

Advantages: Durable, Light to carry, strong suction
Disadvantages: None

...how much stuff this little Miele actually sucks out of the carpets, or how much pet hair my lurchers shed. I change the bag about once every two to three weeks depending on the moult! The small round brush attachment is extremely useful, with the power reduced, you can use it to dust hard-to-reach table and chair legs, picture frames, cob-webby walls etc. Our house has a combination of terracotta tiles, wooden floorboards and laminate flooring plus ...

Advantages: Cheap, reliable, quiet
Disadvantages: None!

...on account of my other miele hoover breaking. However, i did not let this put me off buying from miele again. I found the hoover lived up to my expectations easily, with its cheap price and good reliability it is a winner! This model of the Miele very easy to use and also very simple to empty, you just have to throw away the bag. The noise level it makes is very small, a great reduction from my other earlier Miele hoover. The S411 comes in a range ... Read review

...and found at 247appliances.com a Dyson animal for a staggeringly low £135! Much cheaper than the deals on Ciao! (top tip do a search on Kelkoo - Dysons are much cheaper now than they were!) I ordered the Dyson and it arrived at 7.30 in the morning. Now as it happened this was the day after the cleaner had been but kindly Rocky had brought in a robin so there were feathers everywhere! So I tested the Dyson - it was brilliant - minimal effort and ...
...wood floors and laminates! If you take the head off you can also use it on furniture, It is compact and very easy to store - fits under our stairs! It is also light and easy to move around and it comes with a normal head and a mini head. One word of warning - make sure that you empty it frequently - preferably don't let it get more than half full - it stops it working so well. I am happy, my cleaner is happy and the cats are happy and we have ... Read review
