This vacuum is a godsend in tiny spaces. I've an 11' x 8' living room and a pet rabbit. This Dyson does a great job cleaning up after the rabbit, hay and all, as well as being extremely easy to maneuver. I needn't pick the vacuum up off the floor to angle it into nooks and crannies--instead, it turns on a dime and makes vacuuming a breeze. My former vacuum was an Hoover WindTunnel, which picked up debris equally well as does this Dyson, yet the Dyson is much quieter (especially appreciated by my neighbors--I vacuum frequently). Moreover, the Dyson is much easier to steer within the apartment. It easily swerves directly next to and around the circular base of my glider rocking chair as well as around a tiny water dish. No more sawing motions to vacuum. "Roller ball technology" is a huge plus. I do admit prefering bagged to bagless vacuums, as I find some debris gets stuck within the bagless canister and requires me to get my hands dirty to pull it out, not to mention my breathing in some dust as I empty the canister. If you're already a convert to bagless cansiters, I wonder if this would be much of a concern, as I doubt there's much difference in how bagless canisters empty. I was a little surprised that the Dyson vacuum wasn't made of sturdier plastic, and the Telescope Reach wand is probably great for extending one's reach to the ceilings but I find its length a deterrent to easily hand-vacuuming nearby surfaces, as mentioned in some other reviews citing the "stiffness" of the wand. Luckily, the crevice tool can also be used without the long wand, and attached directly to the more flexible hose, so, with a little extra work, there is a way around this drawback. Overall, I'm thrilled with my purchase exactly because of the ease of steering it; it maneuvers wonderfully and has great suction . I would purchase a roller-ball Dyson again.

Not going to let price change my rating for this product. Tired of buying $100 vacuums to only last 1-2 years. This is a great buy and you get what you pay for. Warranty is not bad either. Best vacuum I ever purchased hands down.

We are very satisfied with the Dyson. We particularly like how well it cleans, ease of use with the ball roller, and the brush off feature for our wood flooring. We have purchased two bagless vacuums in the past. This one far exceeds both on how well it vacuums.

What's great about it: Easy to use , no more replacement parts to buy like belts or bags , very powerful with multi uses!
What's not so great: Price is a bit much but you get what u pay for
This is a great vacuum, a bit pricey for the regular person but i got it cheaper with my reward zone points. I am a guy and i hate doing cleaning around the house and ever since i got this vacuum my wife hasn't had to vacuum since because Ive done it for the past month or so without her even saying anything. Its easy to put together and to use, very lightweight and easy to push around when using it. I think i have used it five times the past month and it has amazed me at how much it has pulled out and how much it still pulls out to date and it's only me and my wife so i guess this has just accumulated with time from using the other vacuum we had. Great buy for me, recommend it but wait until they go on special if its out of your budget. best investment ive done in a while and i probably wont change it unless something better and cheaper comes out in like 5 years.

What's great about it: Suction and ease of use.
What's not so great: Emptying the canister
I bought this vacuum since it was on a good sale, plus using gift cards and BB Rewards coupons made for a great deal. I would not have bought it at it's normal price, but even then it might be worth it for other people. The suction is indeed powerful, and very easy on the maneuverability. Emptying of the canister is easy too, just watch that you don't breathe in the very fine dust that flies. That tells me how fine the particles are that it picks up. I also have a "lavender" vacuum that I use for the up stairs, and in comparison, I would say that they are close together in performance. Even though the brush head is a bit bigger than the "other" vacuum, it still maneuvers easily under tables and around furniture. The hose and wand took some getting use to, as it was a bit stiff at first, but regular use will make it easier to manipulate. It is fairly light and a wonderful vacuum.

What's great about it: manuverability
What's not so great: a single pass doesn't do the job
this vacuum strong point is the maneuverability... Even my small kids can use it with ease! The head is smaller than my previous Eureka vacuum which makes is easier to get into tight places.
The suction seems to be on par with my Eureka. But, since the Eureka was somewhat heavier I think it picked up more? At least it seemed like the cup was more full when we finished vacuuming the house than the Dyson Ball.
I have contemplated taking the Dyson back and get a different Model but, like I said the maneuverability and ease of use can't be beat!
The wand tool is very easy to use! I like how they incorporated the brush into the crevice tool.
To empty this vacuum is very easy. Simply lift off and push the button over the trash.

What's great about it: Does the job it's supposed to do!!
What's not so great: Haven't found anything I don't like yet!
I LOVE my Dyson! Easy to handle, really does a great job on the floors and love the way it self adjusts to floor levels and the ease of emptying the canister! It's not super noisy either and the cord is longer than the one I had on my old vaccuum! Wish I had gotten it years ago! My carpet looks MUCH better already!

What's great about it: Good suction with the hose.
What's not so great: Almost everything else.
i replaced a 10-year-old Miele which finally bit the dust with the DC25 after reading mostly good reviews. Unfortunately this vacuum cleaner is one of the most over-priced, cheap electric devices I've ever owned. Within 5 minutes of my first vacuum the rotating brushes stopped working. There is little suction at the bottom, but plenty with the hose -- what kind of design is that? It feels and works cheap, and it's too clumsy a design with WAY too many flimsy little plastic parts.
I'm returning this tomorrow and will buy another Miele instead. Dyson doesn't even come close to the solidity, elegance, operation, and design of a Miele, in my experience.
Totally lame product -- do not buy.

What's great about it: Turns on a dime
What's not so great: Cost
I cannot justify spending over $400 for a vacuum but I has been worth every cent. It transitions well from carpet to hard wood and leaves the house smelling fresh and clean. It's expensive but a quality buy that you won't regret once you realize that you made the right decision.

What's great about it: Powerful suction
I was so excited when I got this. I have heard nothing but good things about Dyson and have wanted one for a while now. The first time I used it I was not disappointed. The suction was amazing and so much stronger then my previous vacuums. Stronger then any vacuum I've owned in the past I'm sure. I couldn't believe how much it picked up (could see in the canister) that my previous vacuum had to have missed. I had just vacuumed the day before, with another vacuum, but you would never had guessed by what it picked up.
The Dyson is so easy to maneuver and is surprisingly lightweight. The suction is strong but it is actually quieter then my non-dyson. The Telescope Reach wand was a little awkward to use at first, but I think it was just because the design was something that i wasn't used to. But, once you get the hang of it it works well, has a very long reach, and it's easy to switch to different attachments quickly, On top of all that, the vacuum itself is easy to empty, clean and maintain. (the roller brush can come out easily to remove hair or anything that might work its way around it and the filters are easy to clean)
The Dyson is pricey, but you get what you pay for. And this is worth every penny.

What's great about it: Not as loud as some vacuums
What's not so great: Not good on carpet
I bought this vacuum based on the reputation of Dyson and advertisements raving about the fantastic suction. This vacuum barely makes lines in my carpet as I vacuum leading me to believe it is not cleaning well. It is bulky and does not fit under furniture as well as traditional vacuums. I do like the smaller width of the vacuum as it fits in narrower areas. I can't believe that I paid so much for such poor performance.

What's great about it: Everything
I was so pleased when I finally got this home. I had done a lot of research and decided to go with this one. I have four dogs, three of which shed like crazy. It pulled up all that pet hair and plus some! I was shocked what was actually on my carpet. It was also very easy to use on my stairs and did way better than my hand held vacuum. I also used it on my downstairs tile/wood flooring and I can forget about ever using a broom again. It sucked up hair before I even went over it! My floors have never looked so clean. The suction is amazing and the ball is a great design. Easy to use, lighter weight and can fit ANYWHERE! This is a must have!

What's great about it: Easy to use, easy to clean, great suction
This vacuum cleaner is in one word...amazing! It is worth every penny. Each time that we vacuum our home (once a week) we pick up so much dust. To be able to just press a button for that dust to fall into the garbage and not go back in the air is great. The suction of the hose is so great. The first time I used it I was so impressed I vacuumed the base boards around the entire house. It was fun watching the carpet sides get clean.
I also like the feature of one touch of a button to go from carpet to hardwood floor. We vacuum the entire house at one time.
I cannot say enough good things about this vacuum cleaner. I had sticker shock at first, but I'm so glad that my husband talked us into getting this one. It will last us a long time. All we have to do is wash out the filter and let it dry once every three months. No bags or extra parts to buy. Awesome!

What's great about it: Pick everthing up in one shot. Easy to maneuver. Small enough & light weight.
What's not so great: Nothing yet.
I struggled with cleaning my carpet in picking up lint and small pieces. Literally, what took me 20-30 minutes to clean my carpet clean by bending over to pick what my old vacuum couldn't get, the Dyson cleaned everything in 5 minutes. I notice the incredible difference as well with filtering the dust--I'm breathing so much easier. My only regret is not having bought this a loooong time ago. It's pricey, sure, but in the long run, I'm going to be very happy with everything. Best to Dyson, thus far.

What's not so great: Big Price Tag
We were tired of spending $60-$80 what seemed like every couple of months on the other "get-me-by" vacs. They just kept breaking after very limited use. After yet another one broke down after about the 4th or 5th use, I marched right down to Best Buy to pick up the DC25. Wow! It made it seem as though all the other vacs were just in here making noise by the way it filled up the cannister over and over again...during the FIRST use!

This is a great product and I would recomend it to anyone. It has really good suction and it even does well picking up the loose dirt on my hard wood floors. I really like the fact that I don't have to buy bags, I just dump the dirt out and I'm set.
