Dyson Animal Vacuum Review

After buying a new vacuum cleaner every six months, we finally decided to sink the money into a Dyson. We selected the model known as the "Animal" due to problems with dog hair in our house.  Even though the price was higher than we were used to paying, the Dyson has done the job. The canister is quick and easy to empty, even though it is occasionally difficult to reinstall once it has been emptied. The long hose is very convenient for vacuuming stairs and it is easy to disconnect from the upright unit.  I also appreciate the fact that you don't have to search for a foot pedal to raise or lower the handle.  Regarding suction, the Dyson advertising claim is accurate as far as I'm concerned.  Our Dyson has never lost suction and it is so powerful that you have to be careful vacuuming too close to draperies.  My only complaint about the Dyson is that it is very difficult to clean the brush. 

Overall, we have had our Dyson for a little over two years and we are very happy with it.  I recommend it highly.
