Claire, Huntingdon , “Busy.”
Score 10.0/10+ Very easy to use, light weight reaches nicely up the stairs it packs away neatly, but above all, it is very efficient.

Score 10.0/10+ Very comact. Easy to store- all attachments have their own storage place on the vacuum and even the pipe neatly wraps around the cylinder and clips into place. Easy to use. Sits safely on the stairs to make vacuuming easier. Excellent.
- None.

Score 9.0/10+ The head is brilliant in its manouverability under sofas and chairs.
- bulkier than i thought.

+ The suction is really good and it makes cleaning the carpet of dog hairs a lot easier and more effective. You can see how much dirt is in the Dyson because the cylinder is transparent so you know how it's performing and when to empty it.
- Although it is lightweight and can be picked up easily, it could have done with being a bit more manoeuverable as the wheels are very "fixed" and it doesn't follow you around as well as I would have liked.

Sheila, Doncaster , “Sheila - Working mum”
Score 9.0/10+ Lightweight (my previous vacuum cleaner was a DC07). Easy to manoeuvre under furniture (sideboard/dining table/chairs/beds etc). Useful "switch" between rugs/tiles and laminate - and it doesn't scratch the laminate - like the DC07 did! Quick and easy to change attachments. Finally, my children don't mind vacuuming now, as they found the DC07 far too heavy and cumbersome - hopefully the novelty won't wear off too soon!
- The suction seems to be less powerful than the DC07 but as the majority of our floors are tiled or laminate, this isn't a problem.

Anonymous verified purchaser , “Bury working Mum!”
Score 10.0/10+ The suction if brilliant. It stows away perfectly. There is a button which empties the chamber from the bottom, so no more struggling to get the two halves to close properly!
- None so far!

Paul, Redhill
Score 9.0/10+ Good cleaning power. The best things though are the obvious thought that has gone into the design. The tools are all really good and the way that it wraps around itself for storage is very clever.
- I sometimes knock the button that makes the telescopic arm collapse, but that is being very pernickity.

Score 8.0/10+ Does what it says on the tin - sucks up dirt. Folds nice an small too.
-
As all Dysons are it is expensive - but works well.
It is noisy and we rarely fold it flat as it is a bit of a pain to put back together again.

amanda, Wirral , “Used to love hoovering”
Score 1.0/10+ Suction is better than my old DC08 model.
- Grip on handle is wrong way around so it hurts your hand to use it. The telescopic wand has only two settings, really long or really short, so you have to twist to use it hurting your back. The compact flat head was what I thought would be really good for my wooden floors, but if the wheels twist with the head whilst manouvering it leaves marks all over the floor! - This is particularly bad when trying to do under furniture. Also the wand is designed so that it is difficult to get the wand low to the floor to get the compact head under furniture - the only way being to twist it around but leaving yourself open to the wheels not having straight contact with the floor and more marks. The place where the wand attaches to the machine is fiddly, and doesn't make it easy to just pop it in. The on/off button is difficult to access and would have been better being where the wire recoil button is. Loved my old DC08 - recommended Dyson to everyone. This new one just seems to have been changed for changes sake - and not for the better! Got a good deal buying this product but have since had to pay for a chiropracter!!!!!

Score 9.0/10+ Picks up cat hairs from sofa and has great suction even when full. Parts and attachments all click into place in a reassuring way. Folds up very neatly when not in use. Adjustable arm makes it easy to use on stairs.
- Had trouble assembling it from the instruction diagram, but it's easy once you know how - ditto emptying it. It fills up quickly, but that's not really a problem with no bag to replace.

Score 10.0/10+ Excellent pick up, little effort to use, tidies away easily.
- Have to empty frequently whilst vacuuming.

Anonymous verified purchaser , “Own two messy dogs”
Score 5.0/10+ Seems to pick up alot of deep down dirt
- The catch for emptying the hoover compartment is akward and end up getting covered in dirt closing it back up again. I don't think they are all that they are cracked up to be and have had a lot cheaper hoovers that have better sucktion and pick up for alot less money. The hard floor tool is pretty useless and I would be stuck to pick bits up if it wasn't for the turbo tool.

Score 7.0/10+ Manoeverability. Picks up an amazing lot of dirt. Folds away small
- When hoovering back and forwards, hard to pull back. Makes annoying whistling if you pick it up when switched on.
