 Worth every penny April 16, 2008

The Dyson Animal vacuum is great! The first time I used it, I was amazed (and a little horrified) at the amount of dog fur and dirt that it collected. As I vacuum more, my beige wall-to-wall carpet gets cleaner and cleaner. And the air doesn't have that musty dusty "vacuum cleaner" smell when I vacuum. It seems as if the air is cleaner too.
The unit came with the standard attachments and also an special attachment for getting under low furniture and a mini "beater" attachment for stairs. It also came with two types of rug cleaner.
My only regret is not getting one sooner!
Simply AMAZING.. worth every penny!! April 24, 2008

I have a large German Shepherd who sheds alot at various times of the year. She broke my last vacuum, so I needed a new one. I was hesitant about Dyson because they are so expensive, well all I can say is it is the most amazing appliance I've ever bought. It made my carpet look new. The add on is great also. I am amazed every time I use this vacuum at how it makes my carpet look new and gets every little bit of dust hair and whatever.
 Dyson- is it worth the hype? April 30, 2008

I bought this remanufactured Dyson two days ago and received it yesterday thanks to a free trial of amazon prime. The vacuum looks as good as new. The question is, is it worth the hype? I'd say it's a good vacuum, but I'm not as ecstatic about it as some people seem to be!
I decided to put it to the test by vacuuming with my Hoover Bagless Wind Tunnel first. The biggest complaint I have with the Hoover is that it loses suction after the bin gets about a quarter or half full. I wasn't able to compare this with the Dyson because the Dyson only picked up a couple inches worth of dust and dog hair since I had just vacuumed with the other unit. I guess I was expecting that the Dyson would be *so* much better that it would immediately pick up tons of dog hair and tons of dust. It definitely picked up some stuff that the Hoover missed but it wasn't "amazing."
The pros: self propelled-very easy to push around! The purple color is pretty (not that that really matters). It has a lifetime HEPA that can be cleaned and reused (nice considering the Hoovers HEPA is 30 bucks a shot). It is bagless-some people don't like this, but I do. I don't like having to buy new bags all the time-with a dog, bags fill up quickly. It comes with some spot cleaning powder and spray. It also comes with extra attachments.
The cons: it's a little heavy. I found it to be a lot more noisy than the Hoover. It doesn't have a light and doesn't seem to have edge cleaning. The owners manual is useless. It took me a long time to figure out how to put it together and where the attachments went. Instead of making normal carpet marks, it leaves marks that look like rakes.
Overall, I'd say it's a good vacuum. I'm certainly glad I didn't pay the full price of $550 because I don't think it's worth that. I still think the $319 that I paid is a lot, but hopefully, even though it is reconditioned, it will still last for a long time.
Simply Amazing!!!! May 1, 2008

Since reading pretty much every review out there on the Dyson, I must say that I was expecting it to be the best vacuum out there and to perform great. After it's first use I must say, it easily surpasses my already high expectations. This thing is for real! A day after vacumming the living room, hallway, and 2 bedrooms with an Oreck XL, I ran across the same area with the Dyson. Amazingly so, it filled up nearly 2 canisters of filth that the Oreck left behind. It;s crazy and kind of gross seeing what this thing can pick up. There were 2 witnesses to this feat and they will both be placing their orders for one soon. I've had experience with Kirby's, Hoover's Windtunnel, Electrolux and the Oreck XL and they all sadly pale in comparison to the Dyson. If your on the fence about buying one of these, don't hesitate. This thing is amazing!
 DONT BUY!!! July 28, 2008

If i could give this zero stars i would. This vacuum BURNT a HOLE in my rug. I contacted Dyson repeatedly and experienced THE WORST customer service in my LIFE. They asked me to take pictures of the rug and send it to them which I did. It then took them 2 more moths to get back to me (after repeated phone calls) Finally they asked me to send them the vacuum. I asked for a new one and for them to replace my area rug. I specifically said I did not want the same vacuum back as i was afraid it would burn MORE holes in my rugs. WELL they sent me back the SAME vacuum and on top of it they didnt even send back the whole vacuum it was minus the handle part!!! so basically they sent me back half of my old vacuum AND it was broken due to poor packing. when we just called them they said they couldnt find anything wrong with it so they just sent it back.... are you kidding me? We just contacted our Lawyer, this is negligence. Do yourself a favor and stay away from Dyson and their rotten customer service!
