I like my new Dyson, however, it’s not like my old one at all. It’s very hard to push on carpet regardless of which setting it’s on! The attachment hose doesn’t seem to stretch like the description stated. I would suggest to look at one of the newer one to see if they are better before purchasing this product.

Love this vacuum, has great suction. My prior vacuum was a dyson, still works well (about 14 yrs old), or so I thought until I used this one. I could not believe the amount of dirt it picked up. I do not have a dog but do watch my daughter's dog quite frequently. I would definitely recommend this vacuum.

I had a cordless Dyson but realized with the amount of sq footage I have that the cordless was not meant for my house size. I purchased this vacuum and love how much it picks up. Carpet fluffs back up after each cleaning and picks up pet hair flawlessly.

Good: tons of suction and is good on carpet, digging out a ton of carpet fuzz. Bad: Much heavier and takes more effort to turn than you'd think. Plastics are very thin, where you wrap the cord on handle and the hose atta hment point. I hate the hose attachment so much that I almost returned the vacuum. Its over complicated and the springiness of it wanting to return makes it fight you. Flimsy cannister. Only keeping it since we have carpet upstairs and dogs and we ran out of time to return. Glad I have my old one for the wood floors. Wife won't use it due to weight.

It has good suction but they must improve the length of the hose so that the adapters have better handling. The person who uses it must be used to using a vacuum cleaner with a strong suction power and requires strength to pull in some of its positions.In general, does a good job.

this replaced another Dyson that was about 18 years old. The suction is almost as good as our old Dyson, nut the bin and attachment system are VERY flimsy. Cannot imagine this Dyson lasting nearly as long as our previous model. It does as good job, just not nearly as hefty as previous models. Time will tell as to longevity.

I have 3 high shed dogs; 2 Siberian huskies and 1 Alaskan malamute. The Dyson does an excellent job of vacuuming up all the fur whenever they blow their coats and the dirt they bring in from outside. Time will tell how long it lasts but so far so good

The Dyson Ball Animal 3+ Upright is one powerful machine. It does half of what we bought it to do. It has amazing suction power! The brush head can be stopped which is great for hardwood and delicate rugs. However, I really wanted to also be able to use the attachments to clean the stairway, the top of drapes, baseboards, sofa cushions, etc. The attachments are nice and the video Dyson has shows stairs being vacuumed and the hose easily extending. Well, it will extend, but only if one person holds the vacuum in place and the other attempts to pull the hose away. And it takes big time muscle! It is very difficult! It is so difficult, that if not held back by your helper, the vacuum will hug your hip like a toddler. I am serious. I phoned the company to complain and ask what could be done to correct this issue. For at least 20 minutes they acted as if they could not understand what I was talking about. Of course, they got it, as their reviews include this issue. So, if you are excited about using attachments, select another product. This is not it. It does a great job on the floors and carpets. Period.

This vacuum works very well, even picking up the micro dust from our floor. The only surprising thing is that the plastics of the handle and rollers are very thin. It feels like it will break easily. As for the performance, the vacuum is wonderful! I just expected more from the quality of the materials for such an expensive machine.

This is my second Dyson, nothing compares to it, I’ve tried over 20 vacuums in my 32 year marriage. I recently purchased the new Pet Dyson and gave my 5 year old Dyson to my Daughter in law, she used it once and was amazed at the suction and was the perfect excuse to buy another. My next purchase will be the Hair styling tools.
