Advantages: Very light, easy to use, excellent suction
Disadvantages: Doesn't get right to the edges

I saw this item on a TV home shopping channel. With having 3 dogs that come in with wet feet, throw up etc and carpets and tiled floors, I had ordinarily just paid for someone to come and clean the carpets twice a year, and would then be distraught when something happened and they were dirty the next week. I wanted a lightweight easy to use cleaner, so ordered this. It was easy to set up, is easy to use, leaves the carpet fairly dry and very clean ...
...it on my tiled bathroom floor) as an attachment is provided, it can even be used to suck up spills. Very simple to use, you just put the cold tap water into the bottle on the back, the cap is the measure for the cleaning liquid (came free with this product but normally costs about £15 and will last ages), put the water bottle back, plug in, and switch on - the switch I did find a bit fiddly to operate. Push forward and press the lever on the handle ... Read review

Advantages: Great suction, good design and flexibility
Disadvantages: Slightly flimsy attachment / tools compartment

I bought this model on the recommendation of a colleague and haven't looked back since. This vacuum has fantastic suction and works well on a variety of surfaces. I regularly use it on laminate and slate floors (kitchen and bathrooms), carpets as well as using it to clean upholstery of hairs from the cat! The attachments/ tool set is comprehensive and includes a top notch turbo brush. This is the best vacuum I have used with a bag rather than Dyson ...
...those more expensive models. The telescopic tube is ideal for reaching out of the way corners and cobwebby ceilings. The body is light enough to be easily portable and the wheels / retractable cable combination makes it fantastically easy to move about. All in all, I could not be more pleased with this purchase and have recommended the model to more than one friend who has expressed interest in a new cleaner. ... Read review

Advantages: Power, vaersatility, suction
Disadvantages: weight (minor disadvantage)

Having own the original style Dyson some years ago, I had an idea what to expect with the acquisition of the DC 14 when my old hoover's wheels literally came off (wasn't a Dyson by the way). The new Dyson clicked together in a few minutes, I even followed the instructions, and within a minute of registering the Dyson on line for the 5 year guarantee I was hoovering away. The DC 14 boasts some excellent features not least the 1400 w of suction which ...
...waste management system on the Dyson is again a triumph of style and simplicity over hygiene. By grasping the handle of the clear waste tube and clicking the button with your thumb, it comes away in one unit and a simple press of the button unlatches the bottom and the waste simply drops into the dustbin - no hassles. 'They are so heavy though' I hear you cry, well yes they are quite heavy and if you need to get it upstairs it can be difficult, ... Read review

Advantages: Brilliant design, Excellent suction, Well-built
Disadvantages: If I have to list one... No Turbine Head tool included

This is my second Dyson vacuum, which says a lot in itself! I have owned an alternative "bagless cyclone" vacuum, but found that none compare to the suction power of a Dyson. Just like they say on their advert, if you want something like a Dyson, get a Dyson. It certainly costs more than most vacuums, but the 5-year warranty included probably makes it worthwhile (in addition to the tremendous suction power). The good quality design continues to ...
...so will slide under almost any furniture that has a 2-inch ground clearance. Other furniture tools are standard fare, and now attach to the vacuum body (rather than as previously on the hose). The tube extends easily, without needing to be separated into 2 sections like most cylinder vacuums, which is a nice touch; it also has a sturdier feel to it than most modern equivalents. One thing I would like to see included is the Turbine Head (which is ... Read review
