Advantages: Easy to assemble

Disadvantages: Filters are fiddly

After much searching around the web looking for a small cleaner for my office, I finally purchased the Dyson DC26, the only thing which stopped me going out straight away and buying it when it came on the market was the purchase price.

As I already have an upright Dyson which I couldn't be without, I saw a fantastic discount via HUKD, and decided to buy it without hesitation. When it arrived it was quick and easy to assemble. I keep it downstairs as the 2nd vacuum and it's compact enough to keep in the small cupboard I have under the stairs. One of the problems with it is the filter is a bit fiddly to get too if you don't have any nails.

The other filter was just as difficult to get to, as I had to use the end of a spoon to push the plastic screw to get it to open. Apart from that it has good suction and it's easy enough to clear out when it's full.

Summary: As a second vacuum it's perfect
