Dyson Ball DC25

I was quite happy with my trusty old DC08 for my regular (or maybe not as regular as they should be) hoovering sessions, until I won the latest DC25 in a competition. I hurried home with my new prize and unpacked it instantly. The instructions of how to assemble (3 pieces) were very easy to follow and I quickly had the vacuum in one piece ready to switch on. It comes with 2 attachments, one for the stairs and one for curtains (I think!), which fit neatly into the back of the unit so you don't have to spend ages hunting them down when you need them. The cord is quite long, I can do the whole of the downstairs without having to change ...  Read the complete review

Having had Dysons in the past when my last one decided to give up after a number of years I didn't hesitate to buy another one. I looked into all the different models and thought this one looked adequate for what I needed it for and tbh I was quite intrigued by the design. It was very easy to put together with a few clicks and the machine was ready to go. Upto now I haven't been disappointed with the way if performs. It is very powerful and cleans really well. The ball means it does move around corners easier however it is quite heavy which means it can be quite strainful on the wrist (it might just be me!!). I love the fact it has a ...  Read the complete review

After have a henry-esq hoover for far too long we went back to dyson, as every body knows dysons are probably the most loved (as much as a hoover can be loved) household vacuum cleaners so naturally I was faced with high expectation. We bought the hoover in the argos sale for £170 and otherwise would have probably never even tried it as it seems to be a bit of a *fad* item if you haven't tried one. The first thing I noticed when using the dyson ball is that unlike the other dyson models this is extremely light weight and manoverable. The ball thing takes a bit of getting used to, at first I felt like i was wiggling a slinkly at arms length, but once mastered it makes the ...  Read the complete review

I have owned my dyson DC25 for about 3 months now and i love it. we choose to replace our cheap shops own brand vacuum with a dyson because we have a house cat that is permanantly shedding fur so we needed something with stronger suction to tease the hair out of the carpet. The DC25 is perfect it has great suction. It can be used on hard floor and carpet as it has a spinning roller that can be turned off (I would also recommend turning this off for small mats). The dust collection is easy to empty. The ball concept takes a little getting used to you have to remember to click down the leg on the back for it to stand up (which was a little stiff at ...  Read the complete review

This is the 4th vacuum cleaner I have had in 3 years, which shows most doesn't last long in my house. However I have had this for 6 months and it is still in good working order. It is very easy to operate and the ball feature means it is much easier to navigate whilst hoovering. It is very lightweight which makes it easy for carrying around the house and up the stairs. However because it is lightweight it doesn't carry a lot of dust therefore needs emptying quite a bit. This isn't a problem for me as I only have a 2 bedroomed small house however if you have a larger house you may wish to purchase a larger hoover which can carry more dust/rubbish. I find ...  Read the complete review
