+ Very easy to move over all floor types.. even the kids can use it! Picks up dirt you didn't know was there.
- Haven't found any yet.
purchased 09 Jun 2009
+ Easy to use and effective
- Instructions very unclear as no written instructions and use of hose not well demonstrated
purchased 08 Jun 2009
+ Picks up well, no bag to change and manoeuvres well
- None
purchased 09 May 2009
+ Light and easy to use and the ball makes moving around furniture really easy, once you've got use to it!
- The cylinder is on the small side so means you have to empty more often and a bit fiddly to take apart when you want to use the tools.
purchased 01 Jun 2009
+ Gets much more dirt out of carpets
- Awkward to use extension and tools
purchased 23 Jun 2009
+ It has great suction and consequently leaves a very clean carpet / wood floors. It is also very light and easy to manouve around the house. The controls are very easy to use and the hoover is easily switched from carpet to wooden floors.
- As the hoover has great suction it does mean that the hoover needs emptying regularly, however it is not a real problem if you have either a flat or small house. The other thing which it does not have is a recoiling lead. Again not a problem but would be nice.
purchased 05 Jun 2009
+ suction
- too much plastic
purchased 22 Jun 2009
+ Incredible suction. Easy to move around the floor.
- Don't use on rubber backed carpets. The powerful suction causes lumps to appear on the rubber underside.
purchased 14 Jun 2009
+ Looks good and very effective.
- Instructions not very clear and not as mobile as expected.
purchased 16 Jun 2009

purchased 15 Jun 2009

- None
purchased 17 Jun 2009

purchased 14 Jun 2009
+
Powerful suction
Good tool storage
Easy to switch between carpet/hard floor setting
-
Not as manouverable as its made out to be
Useless at getting into corners and close up to skirting boards
Power cord is not long enough - shorter than on older Dysons
Dust bin is not big enough, needs emptied after almost every use
purchased 17 Jun 2009
+ fantastic! just shows how unproductive other hoovers are as the bin was full after the first use!! really easy to use & fabulous suction. I love it!!
- none.
purchased 26 Jun 2009
+ can be moved around furniture etc easily, once accustomed to the 'ball' action.
- Heavier to push than expected and has to be emptied after only a short time of use. (Twice in a 22 x 12 ft room)
purchased 03 Jul 2009
+
this is my first dyson, easy to use, manoeuvred very well,
sucking power is excellent but I want to wait and see what happen when the machine is 1-2 year old
if sucking power is still strong then I will give score 10/10.
- extension hose and wand are slightly rigid to use.
purchased 27 Jun 2009
+ lighter than previous Dyson and more manoeuvrable
- would have liked a longer lead
purchased 27 Jun 2009
+
It fits into small gaps and you can even clean the stairs without having to take the hoover up the stairs.
It cleans all surfaces extremely well.
- It's quite heavy
purchased 14 Jun 2009
+
cant buy a better vaccuum cleaner i have got 3 of these and 6 dc18s
but going to replace all with the dc25s
suction is good balance is good reliability excellent
what else can i say
- the price is a bit high but as far as the machine itself goes no problems i have met yet
purchased 28 Jun 2009
+ My mum has trouble with using a normal hoover and this has been just great for her
- None
purchased 01 Jul 2009
+ Fantastic suction and cleaning power. Easy to take apart for cleaning etc.
- The cannister is quite small, so you have to empty it more often, but then I suppose that is a good thing really.
purchased 26 Jun 2009
+ Great cleaning ability
- I'm 6' 1" , could do with being taller, or have extendable handle, rather than being forced to the top of the range just to have an extendable handle. I find the hose a bit fiddley.

+ compact and powerful, easy to maintain and empty
- Reviewer left no comment
purchased 05 Jul 2009
+ It is light weight and so easy to use, it glides around the carpets and I can now hoover in places where I now do not have to keep moving the furniture. A fantastic hoover...
- Its a little tricky pulling out the extension lead and putting it back and I found out how to empty it the hard way, by pressing the red button which then releases the bottom and the dirt/dust came out and back onto the carpet. Lesson learnt and would have been avoided if I read the instructions. (but who does). Anyway got to use the hoover again and hoover the dirt/dust up again.
purchased 05 Jul 2009
+ Excellent suction. Easy to move. My first upright vacuum and I wish I'd bought similar before
- Could perhaps be slightly lighter, but then you probably wouldn't get the performance.
purchased 05 Jul 2009

Returned after 2 weeks -
The pins to enable the cleaner to stand upright locked and therefore the machine wouldn't stand.
Although apparantly a simple fix, the Dyson helpdesk would not do this without charging us so we had no option but to send it back and purchase another product. BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE
purchased 18 Jul 2009
+ I have owned 3 dysons and this so far is the best, I find it easy to use and very light.
- The flex could be a bit longer, and tools from other dysons do not fit.

purchased 27 Jul 2009
+ Cleans well, easy to empty, light steering, good vacuum.

+ Powerful suction and good for all floors as the name suggests. We have wood, ceramic and carpeted floors and it works well on each one. Very manouverable. Easy to empty.

purchased 28 Jul 2009
+ Excellent suction
- Hose just a bit too short to reach top stair
purchased 27 Jul 2009
+ Easy to turn and do edges.
- On first use a small item got stuck against the rotating brush and melted it. Seems like a design flaw to me but maybe just unlucky.
purchased 30 Jul 2009
+ The DC25 all Floors has even better suction than the DC14, on that alone this is a very good cleaner. The ease of use with the ball does get some getting use to, but once you are off it is an Excellent Vacuum Cleaner.
-
Two minor points which I hope doesn't put people off.
1. Electric Cable not as long as previous models. Just about manage in our house.
2. The collection bin does not hold as much as a DC14

Having had a dyson for the last 7 years I expected good things from the latest model, I am not disappointed,I like the futuristic design and the ease of use that make this machine both stylish and able to suck so much dirt out of the carpet even if it looks clean.
The ball makes it even easier than my previous model and its lighter too, dyson have addressed alot of the quality issues that let down the previous machine. Great hoover and looks great too............excellent

purchased 04 Aug 2009
+ Best vacuum I have ever bought. The suction is fantastic and leaves nothing behind. I have no faults with it at all although it is still a little bit expensive, but I suppose you get what you pay for!!
- Nothing at all.
purchased 16 Aug 2009
+ You really do pay for what you get- the performance of this machine is incredible! A lot of thought has clearly gone into the design and it shows - a real joy to use and with a 5 year guarantee it is exceptional value. Although Dyson's are not cheap, neither are carpets and wooden floors so look after them. Buy a Dyson, see for yourself and enjoy!!
- Only regret is that I took so long researching before I made my purchase.
purchased 19 Aug 2009
+ Easy to use exactly where it's meant...round corners. My fifth Dyson over the years and so far really impressed.
- Fiddly when getting handle off but that is getting easier. Seemed to be the main gripe with most people when I read up before buying. If that is the only problem I can live with it!!! and till happy with the purchase.
purchased 11 Aug 2009
+ Certainly lighter and more manouverable than a traditional upright. We bought it because my wife has a back problem and found the normal uprights to heavy and difficult to get around furniture
- None as yet
purchased 20 Aug 2009
+ The cyclonic principal is excellent at creating strong suction and does not require bags.
- Overpriced for what it is and I would not buy another Dyson.
purchased 20 Aug 2009
+ Very easy to use with good suction.Excellent value for money.Cannot fault.
- Reviewer left no comment
purchased 19 Aug 2009
+ Very manouverable and it is very easy to use. Powerful getting all the dirt and hair from deep in the carpet. Very easy to move from different floor types. All tools and hose are attached to the machine so are on hand when you want them
- Getting the hand hose out is a bit fiddley at first and takes a little getting used to.
purchased 14 Aug 2009
+
easy to use very good suction power i noticed a difference in the first 2 days between what my old hoover pulled and what the dyson pulls.
extremely satisfied could not find a better vaccuum cleaner for that price that gives that performance,
- i wish it was a bit lighter in weight.
purchased 13 Aug 2009
