This rolling barrel vacuum is the result of customer feedback and design improvements to deliver the best possible experience. And Dyson has nailed it once again. The problem with a regular barrel vacuum cleaner is they don't always want to follow you.

we bought this item about a month ago and have been excited ever since, even after cleaning the carpet we ran the dyson over it and was amazed at what was picked up. I am glad I chose this one over the shark that I was thinking about

Sucking more, stumbling less: that may not be quite how Dyson bills the new Cinetic Big Ball Animal , but that's the basic promise from the new canister vacuum. Borrowing from the same physics that keeps Weebles from falling over, the distinctive cleaner justifies its hefty price tag with less...

Top-of-the-line cleaning performance; Clever design avoids tipping; Pet hair removal tool really does work; Easy to empty and no filter to clean

Very expensive; Still reasonably heavy

Dyson made its name by eliminating big frustrations people encounter when trying to accomplish one of the most basic household tasks: vacuuming. So what do you do when the big frustrations are gone? You tackle the little ones.

4.1 ft extension rod for high spot cleaning; Big bin; Ball won't flip

Expensive; Fairly large in terms of occupying storage space

An outstanding cylinder cleaner: it's versatile, accomplished, easy to empty and there are no filters to clean.

Excellent suction power; Brilliant Musclehead tool for hard floors; Tangle-Free Turbine tool works well; No filters to block or clean; Great detail tools; Huge; easy-to-empty bin

Cable and hose could be longer; Turbine tools reduce suction power

We purchased the Dyson a year ago and were impressed with how well it cleaned our carpets. The canister was filled up a couple of times when we first started using it. The canister is emptied by releasing the door on the bottom and everything falls out and that is an issue, the fine dust floats back...

cleans well

does have filters; messy to empty canister; expensive to buy and maintain

An excellent Vacuum cleaner. Our first Dyson was purchased in 1998 and was replaced by this new one in December 2016. The build quality is great and the suction phenomenal! Our hall carpet filled the Dyson alone! There have been vast improvements with Dyson in the past 18 years!

Dyson markets itself as the company with the science behind vacuum cleaners that never lose suction. This upright vacuum cleaner proved to have excellent suction, and it moved around corners better than most of the machines on our lineup.

This upright vacuum combines powerful suction and fluid maneuverability

It doesn't let you adjust the suction

For such a high end company whose upright models are so well built, I'm surprised at the cheap feel of the pole on this canister model. The turbine attachment works very well on most floors, but if you have a shag, or any other thick or high carpet or rug, this is most definitely NOT the vacuum for...

After lot of thoughts I have gone with this product and satisfied with the output except when I use it it on hard floors. When I am using it in new carpet, it is not easy to maneuver, I have tried with all the tool set suggested but still its bit difficult.
