We thought that if we paid more for our vacuum, maybe we'd stop having to replace them every few years. We've had our Dyson (Animal model) for about 3 years now. Motor is still fine, suction works well (important with 3 cats around). The extension hose recently ripped, but that isn't an expensive part to replace.
Some dislikes: it doesn't fit under beds/coffee tables very well; canister has to be emptied at least twice during each vacuum session (despite doing it twice a week); price (which has stayed the same since we bought ours).
Likes: if you accidentally suck up something you shouldn't have (Barbie shoes, legos, etc.), it's easy to find the missing item--you can take it apart and put it back together without any issues; comes with a few different handy accessories; clear canister; filters are rinsable.

They are utter cr@p.
I've managed to break 2, just by using them!
When I called customer service I got no help at all. They are a triumph of style over substance, they look good but put them to work and they break. As for not losing suction, that is utter bollocks. Compare a new one to one that is a year old and you'll see what I mean.
Give me a Henry any day, tough, reliable, simple design and it will pick up anything at only 1/3 the price of a Dyson.

I have two Dyson's, the first DC04 though old is excellent, but the DC07 animal is rubbish, and doesn`t do its job. I think its like anything else nowdays, progress means going backwards, i think it would be easier for me to use a old fashioned carpet sweeper than the Dyson 07 animal. I have to say I wouldn`t touch a Dyson again.

There's a vacuum repair shop near where I live,and we asked them if Dysons were ok,..they showed us the back room which was full of dysons waiting for repair.

I LOVE mine. Two of my co-workers have Dysons as well and they absolutely love them. The only complaint I have is the telescopic handle. It's a bit cumbersome and takes some getting used to. Otherwise it's the Benz of vacuums.

They are great for the job BUT as a previous worker for a very large parcel company I'm unsure about their reliability.This is due to the amount of spare parts shipped out to Dyson customers either to replace or repair ?????

The only thing I liked about my Dyson cylinder cleaner was the way it sat on the stairs. I hated everything else about it and now I have a different cleaner.

Dyson is the best! Money well spent I think. Mine picks up everything. Easy to use and maintain.
