[...] Summary: All in all, I am happy with my purchase. It may not be perfect for everyone, and in some instances it may be more of a hassle than a helper if you have to constantly clean the brushes due to long hair or carpet fibers. If you have hardwood floors, are fairly tidy, and keep things like cords off your floors the roomba may be a helpful time saver that can help you cut down on your chores. If you fit those three criteria I think it can be a great purchase. If you have lots of cords or mostly have carpeting, I do not recommend the roomba for your use, but rather a non robotic dyson vacuum. [...]

Maybe it's the kind of dog I have (Dalmatian) but I have to go over and over and over the same area to get the hairs up. I don't know if my Dyson DC14 Animal is so powerful it's sucking up the hairs that may have worked down into the carpet so it looks like it's not doing a good job; or the suction's so poor that it can't suck 'em up on the first or second pass; or if the hairs are "hanging onto the carpet with little grippers" and are making themselves more resistant to being sucked up…. I know what you're what thinking: "Get rid of the Dog". No can do. She's too sweet and a good snuggler. I guess I should just listen to tunes on my mp3 player and start dancing with the DC14, cuz it's gonna take a while to get those little white hairs off my rusty-red carpet…

Just bought a new DC14 off ebay today for $199.00, shipping included. Ebay had it in the "Daily Deals" section and thought this was too good of a deal to pass up. Thanks for the reviews and I am sure we are going to love the new vacuum. Will beat our old Eureka for sure.

Hello Ingrid, glad you got a good deal on the DC18. I think that model would be perfect for the place i am in now… it is a bit smaller and easier to store.

How are you liking it so far?

Hi George,

I bought a Dyson DC18 Slim and just wanted to let you know that, it's much smaller. The Slim can fit under cabinets and is relatively light compared to the regular Dyson. It's about 15 lbs. I researched all the Dysons on Consumer's Report before I bought the Slim. Even though it didn't get the greatest score, I read all the reviews from the consumers and based my decision on what they had to say and what my needs were. I'm so happy I spent the time to research, because I feel like it's the perfect fit. I wouldn't trade my Dyson for all the Bissells and Kenmores in the world! I would recommend the Slim for women, because it's lighter, for small houses because it can rotate on a dime, and for those who may have neck, arm, or shoulder problems, because of the ease to maneuver. FYI: I was patient and got a killer deal on ebay. Saved between $275 and $300.

Thank you for your honest appraisal! I am in the process of replacing my Oreck and am so glad to hear your comparison. I have loved my Oreck, but I've had it for over 10 years and it just isn't doing the job anymore. The only thing left for me now is to figure out the difference between the "low reach floor tool" and the "hard floor tool". Thanks again!

Back in november i purchased a Dyson Animal. In 2 weeks time the power button broke.Called Dyson and was told to return to place of purchase. I did so got another Animal. In about a month the second Animal broke. A metal roller from inside fell out and i could no longer use the Dyson. Took it back and got a full refund. I feel Dyson isn't worth the money and it's a piece of junk.
Save your money.

My mother in law gave us a Dyson DC-14 for Christmas. I have been secretly wanting one. We were using a Bissell bagless upright. So I did the tests you all see on QVC and HSN. OH MY GOSH!!! My husband and I couldn't believe it. We vacuumed with the Bissell (bought only 6 months ago) and then with the Dyson. It was amazing. I hated vacuuming before this and now I have told my husband it is no longer his chore. I love this vacuum. It comes with a lifetime filter that you clean every 6 months. Other than that there is no maintance at all. I am a very busy mother of an energetic 3 year old. Even she is trying to vacuum with me everyday.LOL Anyway, to anyone debating about this vacuum, GET IT. Honestly, you will be able to breathe better the first time you use it. It is worth its weight in gold(or gas these days). 10 out of 5 starsXXXXXXXXXX
