very powerul product, no job too small

could be smaller in height... half way between a mini vac and an upright... perhaps with a compressible handle, so it can fit into smaller spaces

To tall at sides to fit easily under radiators and kitchen kick panels etc..

Flex Hose could be just a touch longer also it tends to split where it joins the Pipe. Brush tends to wrap hair and cotton,wool around the brush so causing lose of pick-up.

Very powerful. The best vacuum cleaner I've used. First time I used it I thought the carpet was fairly clean (it had just been cleaned with a brand new Sebo), but the Dyson sucked a huge amount of dust out of the pile.

I love my new Dyson! I was given a 'hand me down' DC01 that was good, but after buying my brand new DC07 I was amazed! We got it for the 'all floors' ability, and I have not been disappointed by it at all! I am very happy with the cost too, for such a powerful effective machine! Thanks Mr Dyson!!

The only minor bad point is the hose when vacuuming the stairs- it is very tight and awkward when trying to reach the top step, but I guess this will slacken in time!

Good suction.xcellent for pet hair.Very practical as emptying hatch is at bottom of dirt container and the lever action is easy for emptying. Nice colour blue. Overall appearance is very good. I do think they are a very good make and would buy again.
-
wand attachment is very loud with any of the attachments altho the long thin attachment seems to be the quietest of the three and that,s still loud!,almost too loud to bear using but I suppose it,s because the suction is concentrated thru the wand so is going to be much louder. Machine is fairly heavy. I would try to get a quieter version next time!
