Dyson DC07 Cyclone Animal Upright Vacuum, Purple customer reviews:

Changed my life - asthma and allergies DRASTICALLY better!      My husband has asthma and I have allergies. Despite this, we live with 4 cats and 2 guinea pigs in a very dusty 150-year old house. My old vacuum was dying so I started shopping for a new one. I decided on the Dyson because I wanted a bagless system, and was willing to try a new brand after being disappointed with Hoovers and Electroluxes over the years.
So, I bought the DC07 Animal. I just have to say: OMG. This thing is so incredibly well designed I can't stop gushing. Every little aspect was thoughtfully designed - from how to open the box to emptying the container. I seriously LOVE every last detail of this vacuum (I'm a designer and my husband is an engineer, so we get excited over good design). All the pieces fit nicely together, and the materials feel nice and sturdy. The attachments are incredible: the narrow space thing really does a great job getting the dust bunnies from under the bed, and the upholstery attachment miraculously gets the cat fur off the twill couch.
I also can't believe how much stuff it sucks up. The first time I vacuumed I had to empty the container 4 times - that's 3.5 gallons of dirt/fur/yuck! Since then, I've been vacuuming 2-3 times per week and I still can't get over how much it sucks up each time (about 1/2 the container). It's absolutely amazing.
Our health is so much better as a result, too. This time of year I am usually a miserable sneezing, stuffy, runny, headachey mess. My allergies are now dramatically much less, and when I do feel yucky I vacuum well and immediately feel better thanks to the HEPA filter cleaning the air as I vacuum.
My husband's asthma is drastically better. He used to have 3-4 attacks a DAY pre-Dyson. As of this writing, we've had the Dyson for 6 weeks and he has only had 3 asthma attacks since then. Unbelievable.
I seriously never thought I would be so excited about a vacuum, but this one is worth every last penny. We aren't going to throw out the air filter or asthma inhalers, but this machine has seriously changed our lives. Dyson, I can't thank you enough.
Best Vaccum, Hands Down      I thought it might be handy for those considering this Dyson (or any other Dyson for that matter), to read a review from a longtime owner. I purchased this model in May 2004 after yet another in a long string of vacuums decided to die on me. The price was a little daunting, but ultimately well worth it. What I've learned in my four years of owning a DC07 is this:
1) Just like Mr. Dyson proclaims on his commercials, it NEVER loses suction. Ever. All you need to do is empty the canister when it's full (push a button, carry the released canister to the nearest trashcan and pull a trigger), and clean out the little filter sponge every six months as directed in the user manual. Other than tiny bit of maintenance, this beast will suck up every unwanted item on your carpets and hardwood. I know I've read some users saying it doesn't work well on non-carpeted surfaces, but my house is mostly hardwood (and some icky, ancient Formica), and I've yet to have a problem--and I'm one of those neurotic tri-weekly vacuuming types who can't stand to see a fleck of lint on the floor.
2) It can take a beating. Now, I'm not saying you should chuck the thing down the stairs to see if it bounces, but if you vacuum the way I do, then furniture, walls and all sorts of other things get slammed into on a regular basis. Not to worry; this vacuum can handle it. Mine has a few scuffs here and there, but no broken parts in the four years I've regularly used/abused it.
3) Cat hair has no chance--that is, with the regular vacuum part. The "Animal" attachment is less than useful and I've given up on messing with it; the little brushes inside spin and spin, and do nothing at all. It's the biggest drawback of this vacuum: not being able to use the extension on furniture. But honestly, I've come to realize lifting up the vacuum and going over the sofa not only works just as well, I've also gained some nice guns out of the deal.
4) Cleaning out jams in the brush (and you'll know if you've got one because the machine makes a horrific racket to alert you) and in the unit itself is very easy. All areas in which something could be hiding are accessible by levers and buttons that allow you to snap off the various components to locate the clog. No screwdrivers or rocket scientists necessary.
5) The telescoping wand is a little strange, as it both is and is inside the handle mechanism. To use it at its full length you have to fully remove it from the extension tube and then flip it around and snap the other end of it in place instead of being able to just fully extend the wand right where it is. I'm completely used to it now, but new users will wonder what the heck Mr. Dyson was thinking (and constantly worry about the chance of lamp damage from swinging the thing around like a majorette in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade). This design flaw has been fixed with subsequent models, I believe.
So, that's it. Aside from an odd color choice (purple? really?), the non-functional animal hair attachment and the weird way the wand extends, I'm in love. This machine has outlasted and outperformed every vacuum I've ever had. I'll never buy anything but a Dyson ever again.
Great Vacuum      I do wish that I had bought this long ago! It is worth the money. It is easy to use! I would suggest this for anyone with animals!
No idea how dirty my carpets were until this      I honestly thought my old vacuum was doing the job...until it died and I immediately (off of friend's recommendation) purchased the Dyson DC07. I could not believe how much this vacuum picked up, even after I had vacuumed the day before with my old GE.
Proof is definitely in the brush. I have to cut off my long hair and the cat hair that gets wound around the brush. I have to do this about 2 times a month. This puppy really gets the gunk. I have 3 small kids, 1 cat, and about 1900 square feet they run around and this thing is amazing thus far. I've had it 4 months. I'd highly recommend it.
Amazing      We just moved into a new house. The carpet was flat and looked like a hord of animals ran over it...incl.spilled messes.
Now i shampooed it with my carpet cleaner (Bissel Pro heat2,which is great)...i did that like 2times..i vacuumed it a couple of time with a 1year old vacuum(bissel,lost power after 1year already)...
Now the dyson arrived. I expected a little bit of that one since i payed lots of money for it.
but when i used it...i was only pulling it back and forth while standing on the same spot...and the dirt started to turn in that see through canister. Oh my gosh.... i couldnt even finish the living room because i had to empty it out already. Now consinder that the canister isnt small either. so i had to empty it out for like 3times for only the living room because that vacuum was lifting so much fine-dirt and carpet fussels...its more then amazing. believe me..
now also the carpet started to smell so different...and lifted up the old carpet poors and you could see where i vacuumed. It actually looked like i just shampooed it. That smell was fresh and it looked so much more clean..which it was.
Oh yeah...I do have two cats so its doing more then just well with the cat hair.
The attachments are fine... I love to vacuum the floor without having stuff flying back at me...because this one is turning off the brushes on the floor setting. and then the attachment for the floor is great too.i could reach all under my dressers..tables....perfect for low furniture.
I can say.... BUY it if you want to find yourself in a clean home
PS:the white powder to deep clean the carpets,smells good and lifts up extra dirt again...its amazing.
