After two years and two golden retrievers, ours is broken. I took it to the local repair shop and he said this was the cheapest worst machine he has seen in a while. He can't fix it because the part that is broken has been made impossible to get to by the cheap construction. Direct comment "I can't believe they have even made a Dyson disposable" very unimpressed.

First expensive vacuum I hope its my last. July 16, 2008

I got the DC14 reach Animal. I bought it from Amazon as a refurbished one for $314. WHAT A DEAL!!! It looked brand new and ran like new. You would never have known it was refurbished. I put the handle on and it was ready to go. When I turned it on my husband and dogs were very surprised that it was so quite. My Pit bull normally can not stand to be in the same room when I am vacuuming but he does not mind this one. My other two dogs did not care at all.

I got down on the floor and inspected the rug after cleaning. It looked like It picked up 95.5% or all the pet hair. It even picked up sand. I loved how you only have to go over an area once, or twice if it is really messy. It does not vibrate the carpet or blow the dirt around like my dirt devil did. With my dirt devil when I vacuumed the sand I would see the vacuum just move it around and not suck it up. This one SUCKS and boy dose it suck. Even the attachments suck well. My last one the attachments were a joke. I also have rug that leads to tile and going from one surface to the other with out it just blowing dirt around is great. I love it I just hope it last forever.

I think this is a wonderful vacuum. Only compliant is the you can't get any where under low furniture. BUT you can just use the attachment and you can reach under stuff. All and all when you use this vacuum your floors really do feel and look clean.

I bought this because we have two very hairy dogs (bloodhound and lab). I was so excited to vacuum for the first 6 months of owning this "miracle" vacuum because it would suck up an anvil as far as I could tell ... but then it lost suction. And now I dread vacuuming again just as I did before. So, sorry Mr. Dyson, but I had to give you a 2 because you lied to me. It does lose suction and I wasn't trying to suck up an anvil ... just dog hair and dust. I love the design and the baglessness, but it's just not worth the money.

I was delighted to read rave reviews and spent the $500 to get the best dog hair removal sweeper, and the fact that I could reach the top of my stairs without carrying the sweeper with me as I vacuumed... The attachments did not work as well as I expected they were clumsy even to stay on while I was using it!! so I was content to just use the upright . Now 3 years later the 2 year warranty ran out and a loud noise is sounding on my dyson.. I checked for blockage... none...could it be a belt. yes they have belts but how do you remove it without breaking the plastic?? I empty the dirt..start it up again.. runs for about 3 minutes and loud noise is back!! I look and the dirt is not swirling.Call dyson and told warranty is gone take to repair center it needs a clutch?? which last about 3 years so now I know every 3 years I will have repairs on my $500 sweeper! I do not know yet how much that will cost me. I do not use my sweeper hard,2 adults, 1 short hair dog.. I still have my electrolux 25 years now that never needed any repairs, but at the time I wanted the dyson for the 17 foot hose(for steps) and the animal hair removal .. So the $64 thousand question??
IS DYSON WORTH IT????? I say NO !!! It will need repairs sooner than you think!!!!

I have no idea how anyone can say this thing has no suction!?! I have reasonably new carpet (4 yr old house), don't wear shoes in the house, no kids, no pets, so that's admittedly not a tough cleaning job. After my year old Eureka Boss self destructed I Purchased a new Hoover (Fred Meyer) and vacuumed the carpet twice slowly and carefully. The first pass resulted in a fair amount of dirt (mostly dust, hair and fibers). The second pass resulted in quite a bit less and so I should have a clean carpet right? Next I vacuumed with a new Dyson 14 I purchased (Costco). The Dyson pulled a remarkable amount of the same dust, hair and fiber from my twice cleaned carpet. Still skeptical I vacuumed again with the Hoover. Nothing! Look to other reviews for durability, mine is new, but boy does it clean! The Hoover went back to Fred's.
