Here are pictures of all the extra things my Dyson picked up versus my Oreck XL.
These are from 2 carpeted rooms, about 12×12 and 14×20:
The Dyson filled up quickly and I had to empty it. It was pretty gross, but the next ones are even worse.
These are from my bedroom - 12×12 berber carpet and my small kitchen:
What makes it worse is that all this extra dust and dirt was sitting inches from head where I slept:
Pretty disgusting whatever way you look at it. People think I am nuts for buying a $500 vacuum (I pad around 300) but I think the pictures speak for themselves.

[…] On carpeting it brought life back into my old carpeting and made it feel very soft. It also got an absurd amount of powdery dust from it, and this was after using my Oreck prior to the Dyson. View pictures of extra things the Dyson picked up. […]

I’ve been wanting one, but now I REALLY want one. I’m gonna tell my husband: not in 5 months. Life is short. Now honey, NOW!!!! I’ll even use the mattress vacuum - sounds powerful enough to suck up invisible mites. Can’t wait to use it in the back of the jeep where dog hairs are deeply embedded in the carpet. Long cord and all - I’m sold.
I bought the Dyson DC14 Drive at Target a few months ago. I have the same experience every time I vacuum, and the canister fills up exactly like yours does! Really gross, but this thing is nothing short of a miracle. I also purchased the wide angle floor attachment to use in the living room, and it works great! Love this thing!
I bought my Dyson last night and it is being delivered today. My son has severe allergies espeically to dust mites and after seeing the pictures (WOW and GROSS at the same time)I am SURE the Dyson is going to help solve part if not most of the problem! I can’t wait to use it!!
