Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Easy to use once you've figured everything out (a few confusing catches and switches inititally). Really good size for storage and I was concerned I would have to empty it regularly as it is really small but tha's not the case at all. Haven't noticed much difference from normal sized dyson.
Bad points:: Quality isn't as great as the old dyson as ours looks about 10 years old already where the slightest knock completely scratches it!

Vicky, Swansea Frequent user

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: The main reason that I bought this item was because I have just moved in to a three story house and wanted a vaccum cleaner that I could use easily on stairs and that was not heavy to carry. The DC24i fits the bill perfectly. The ball allows easy movement around objects and as you would expect with a Dyson, great suction and ease of use.
Bad points:: The only downside of theis product is that the collection cylinder is really small and needs emptying quite often.

Product Features

Shape	Upright
Type of dust container	Bagless
Bagless vacuum cleaners help you save money on replacement bags but they generally need to be emptied more often and they can be messy to empty. Also be aware that emptying dust canisters without bags can be a hazard for people with dust allergies.
Type of brush	Power

Type of hose	Extendable metallic
Vacuum cleaner hoses are either metallic or plastic and are either a fixed length or extendable.
Dust capacity (Litres)	0.85
Amount of dust the machine will take until you need to empty it.
HEPA filter	Yes
HEPA stands for High Efficiency Particulate Air and HEPA filters are also known as S-class filters. These reduce the allergy-causing particulates that escape from the vacuum cleaner so are worth getting if you suffer from allergies to things like dust or pet fur.
Noise level (Decibels)	83
Measures how loud the machine is. For quieter machines, look for models with a noise level under 60 decibles.
Variable power	No
Different levels of power are handy to have so that you can use less suction on more delicate surfaces and vice versa.
Weight (kg)	5.4

Cable rewind	No
Automatically rewinds the cable at the push of a button so that you don’t have to spend ages winding it back up.
Fragrance diffusor	No
Gets rid of nasty odours. Especially useful if you have pets.
Type of bagless filter	Cyclonic

Controls in handle	No
Power (W)	650
