Advantages: Head very easy to use, compact size

Disadvantages: Pretty heavy for it's size

My last vaccum cleaner wasn't performing like it should and I then knew I had to go for a Dyson, a treat as just bought first house and seeing as a lot of them are currently on offer with big savings. I saved about £90 from the RRP on an Argos saving but I cannot remember the price now!

This model is a compact stowaway type machine, tucks away very neatly, and so many funky little ways of storing the onboard tools, the hose hooks onto the machine when in storage so not left flapping about for you to trip over. It just pops away really neatly.

There is a flat out head for everyday needs, a crevice tool and a soft furnishings tool kept very neatly in the nooks of the machine, had to figure out how to get crevice tool out but once I found it was fine.

Pulling about behind you can be a slight task as it seems to get stuck on every corner so best carrying it from room to room I'd say, this is not as noisy as my previous vacuum although the cat still hates the noise and bombs off at the earliest opportunity!

The head is very good and gets under tables etc, it is very flat, runs on little wheels and bends about generally very well getting all the crevices, it's ace too cos you don't have to bend down with this like most cylinder machines, one push of a button and it extends thus less maneuvering for the cleaner upper, I love that function so much!!

Works very well on my laminates, tiles and carpeted stairway, very easy to empty and a real investment, I mean 5 year guarantee that's such a bonus and is a definite factor in why everyone should own a Dyson. Goes to show the confidence they have in their machines and quite rightly so!! Fab.

Summary: A well worth investment
