It's very nice that Dyson Turbine Heads are more quiet than others. We've got one(round about 20€ plus postage) for the old Siemens Big Bag 3L(Which will get replaced with the used Dyson DC11 because of my dust allergy which I've bought when we have no bags for the Siemens) and it's louder than the vacuum cleaner and the Siemens is really noisy
The tangle free turbine tool is awesome at getting Cat hair from upholstery and curtains. I have a Black Cat and cream curtains and tried various methods of keeping them fur free as my Cat likes to sit in my bedroom window. I tried it today and it worked like a dream. Quick and very effective. One very happy Cat Mama!
I totally agree about the noise level. For me every Dyson I have tested is far too noisy for me and for example the regular ball canisters aren't so maneuverable as I would like. But after saying all that cyclone technology is the best on the market and (for turbine head) this also cleans very well.
Yeah, this pretty much sold me on this, it's quite expensive though. They also have their pet cleaner head as well, which looks really handy. I guess I'll have to save up :) Thanks for the video.
This is a discontinued model now and many retailers are selling it at a reduced price. Dyson have launched some new versions that look quite interesting.
I just got mine today and did not think it was too loud. I had an old Dirt Devil Vision that was much louder. Also, we likely did not have the bend closed tight enough because when we picked it up to empty it the dirt spilled out. I'm in a wheelchair and the vacuum was easy to operate and had great suction-much better than my old vacuum. We vacuumed one of the bedrooms. My only complaint is that the flexible hose needs to be longer.
Thanks for the review. I'm interested to know what you think about it on the stairs as some reviews have complained that the shape and weight of it make it impossible to balance and heavy to hold. Any thoughts? Thanks again!
What an excellent review. Answered all my questions. Thanks heaps. My wife and I are in the market for a new vac (possibly a Dyson) and that Turbo head might be the deal-sealer.
Excellent review (as always) Roger! I agree with all your points on this Dyson, but like you I agree improvements are needed. I wish I owned a sound/decibels meter just to do some checking myself but even without one, all my Dyson vacuums are by far the loudest. Thanks for sharing, I was glad you showed the emptying of the new "hygienic" dust bin. Thanks and Happy Day Before Your Birthday!! 🎂🎁🎈
There's nothing hygienic about emptying this Dyson Patrick, but then I could say that for any bagless. I have a pair of ear defenders that I wear when using this model, but my latest Shark Rocket stick is very loud too. Don't forget to watch the special birthday video tomorrow. I don't know when it will be on my channel, it depends when the vacuum is delivered and how long it takes me to edit the video. I'll email you later.
+ibaisaic thanks Roger! Yes I agree.. I mentioned "hygienic" because Dyson claims its so easy and clean to empty. Lol although I do have to admit my Sharks are easier to empty as there's not much for the filth to get stuck on. ;-) I can't wait for your Birthday! :-)
I recently bought my first Dyson big ball. Was trying to decide between the new Turbine head or Allergy +. They appear to all be the same, except for attachments.
Great review, as always. What is your impression of the deep cleaning ability of this cleaner? The tangle free upholstery nozzle and the turbo tool seem to do a very good job on the surface, but I can hardly hear or make out any agitation whatsoever. What do you think? What about the combined dusting/crevice tool - does the dusting head always stay in place? The Shark Powered Liftaway has a similar tool and the dusting head unlocks very easily, which makes it a bit tricky to use.
In my experience, I would say that this is not a deep cleaner and has little or no agitation. The dusting crevice tool seems OK and the brush stays out of the way until it's needed, but it may loosen up after a lot of use. I've had no trouble with my Shark 2 in 1 tool but it is still fairly new.
@ibaisaic Which would be best out of the following: Animal Pro, CX1 Cat & Dog, C3 Cat & Dog? I would really like one with a mini turbo brush, which I believe rules out the CX1. How does the mini turbo brush between the Animal Pro and the C3 compare?
Wonderful review, thank you. Do you have a canister vacuum that you recommend that cleans well but is quieter than the Dyson? I am on my second Miele canister (their purported superior filtration prompted their purchases). I am pretty unsatisfied by their suction, durability and sticker prices, but they are quiet. Thank you!
Susan Czark I think dyson has best bagless vacuums. I know Miele has a bagless canister. However I really hate the plume of dust that comes out every time I empty the canister, Plus the constant cleaning the filters. For that reason I am a huge fan of bagged vacuums, Healthier air quality overall and no maintenance involved. Sebo, Numatic, and Zero G are my top choices.
In one of the videos for the Dyson Cinetic canister cleaner, either the unboxing or the review, you mentioned that there isn't a canister vacuum with a powered head. I thought that for a while and I live in the US and they don't even have a powered head here. Turns out they have a canister vacuum in Japan, Dyson Fluffy canister, that has a powered head similar to the Dyson v8. Which I wish they would release her in the U.S.and the U.K.
Great review Roger, as always. Im still on the fence re Dyson over Miele, !! currently got the newer Miele Eco-boost, very good machine, quiet etc but has to be on the very lowest suction setting to be able to get the main head to glide over the carpet !! its like a gym work out on max suction !!! :-)
Please would you review the Dyson Small Ball Animal Upright. I bought it and it is now my favourite Dyson cleaner. Light and powerful and I'd love your opinion. Thanks.
My wife and I have this but we had several problems with it. First of all it sometimes made a strange 'whistling' noise where the wand connects to the hose. The brushes on the floor turbo head wore down quickly and eventually the brushbar simply jammed and didn't spin at all. The switch on the standard floor head that changes the carpet/hard floor mode snapped. The suction control on the standard floor head was fiddly to adjust and it either superglued itself to the carpet or didn't suck at all. The bin release didn't always open/close properly. However it did have a small saving grace. The anti-tangle mini turbo tool was excellent on stairs and upholstery. It really dug down well into the carpet on the stairs. WHY couldn't Dyson make a larger version of the said tool for floors? For this reason we have kept the machine but only use it to clean the car, as my wife doesn't want me taking her brand new Miele outside.
Hi there! I have been watching your reviews on both Shark and Dyson pet vacuum cleaners. I have 3 DSHs (but thick fur) and 1 medium lengthed fur cat. They shed, quite a lot, on upholstery, carpets, furniture.. practically everywhere. And I occasionally find their litter crystals on the tiles as well. Between Shark and Dyson - which brand and model would you highly recommend? Many thanks for your feedback!
They both have their pros and cons. The Dysons are much better at filtering out the dust and keep the filters cleaner for longer, apart from the model in this video that doesn't have a pre motor filter. If going for a Dyson I would get one with a filter personally. The Shark Powered Lift Away is a good machine and more versatile than a Dyson upright, but the new Dyson Light Ball is also worth looking at.
What about the tangle-free turbine tool vs the TruePet mini motorized brush? I have furniture that holds on to pet hair where the hair weaves in to the upholstery. Which tool will be better for getting the hair out?
Great review, well filmed and demonstrated Thanks you. Would you advice to take the cylinder carbon fiber head for removing long hairs. I havé heard that rolling head (not Dyson's in particular) are bad at it.
Long hairs get wrapped round the brushroll on any vacuum with a revolving brush, you just need to make sure you keep them clean. Personally I would have thought that the carbon fibre brushes on this Dyson would soon become damaged if long hairs are allowed to build up on the brush roll.
I think I saw you testing the Animal Pro 2 without the Cinectic. Are there any differences between the Cinetic and non-Cinetic one? I just got my Cinetic today and it's absolutely powerless. I am so disappointed. There is not enough power to keep the brush rotating on a carpet. It is quite silent though. I was thinking that has the Cinetic been ruined by EU's noise and power regulations as you mentioned at some point. Is the non-Cinetic model perhaps louder and therefore more powerful?
Can you show us how effective those cyclones are without the pre-filter? Does allow any debris to pass through the motor intake? Did you see any sign of residue, particularly fine dust, accumulate around the motor intake after your "torture test"?
I haven't used this since the demo and plan to sell it, so I can't comment on how this will stand up to regular use, though I personally would get the cheaper version with the filters. I have read complaints about the uprght Cinetic letting dust through to the motor and I wouldn't be surprised if the cylinder does the same thing.
Hellow :) Im looking to buy a Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animalpro canister vacuum just like you have here. I saw from some videos that the cinetic UPRIGHT does NOT catch all the dust with the cinetic tips (result: dirty post-motor HEPA filter). Does the same thing happen to the Cinetic canister after weeks/months/years of use? with the canister, where the cinetic tips do not catch everything and dirt goes to the post-motor filter? Did you see any dust where the motor is? Is it better to get just a Big Ball canister with a pre-motor filter? :) love your videos! :D
Can the dust bin detach from the main body so I can clean the dust bin completely with a cloth. My DC50 upright bin can be detached completely from the main body. Otherwise, dust will remain in the bin and it become loaded with dirt with each passing year. Dyson products are great in that every part is designed to detach for cleaning. I was thinking about purchasing the Dyson Big Ball Canister vacuum .
Does the Cinetic Big Ball (Cylinder) have any issue on the HEPA filter being clogged up? I came across with some youtube channel that they do have filter inside the machine and it will eventually clogged up.
The reason they don't want you picking up small particles like ash and flour is because there IS a permanent filter. The finer debris will clog the filter over time.
It doesn't tell you not to vacuum flour and fine powder because it might get in places that would make it break, it says that because it doesn't want you to cause a quite dangerous **dust explosion**.
Alright, I'm sold, one of these will be shipped to me by Amazon - or I may just buy it in a department store somewhere around Seattle. Thanks for the review, sir.
Well, fascinated by the its design and because I have 3 dogs and two cats I bought this vacuum cleaner one year ago. I only use it to vacuum the pet hairs from the sofas and pillows. I like very much its little rotative power brush for that purpose. Otherwise I don´t like it at all, it's too noisy, too bulky, the hose is too short, the cord is also not long enough and doesn't retract well. The pneumatic floor tool is very hard to maneuver and the carpeat rotative brush although it has a shape and a wheel that makes you believe that is very effective it really isn't, it jams when pulling and looses rotativity very soon. I have a Henry by Numatic and prefer from very far to use it instead of dyson pro animal. It was much cheaper, it has a bigger and stronger power brush, it is very silent, it has a very big hose and cord, a large dust bin and it is very silent.
I wonder if the lights will go dim when using this vacuum? When I use my dc25, the lights go dim which shows how it's not energy efficient. Every time I turn on the Miele vacuum, the lights never go dim thanks to the efficient gentle start motor.
I have the Total Clean Big Ball Cylinder (not cinetic). It is the same as the Animal but came with two more cleaning attachments and was cheaper than the Animal when I bought it from Dyson UK. I like it but not as much as my Small Ball Upright.
So is there any point in using the muscle head? Also, maybe you should have tested the Tangle free with the bag of filth. It is an excellent attachement and it would have been interseting to see how it does when it needs to clean up large amounts of dirt. But still, the best dyson you have tested yet.
I think Dyson supply a regular carpet/floor tool for people with carpets that shouldn't be cleaned with a revolving brush. If I were to use this Cinetic as my daily vacuum, I would probably never use the regular floor tool.
It would be nice if they could design the machine so that the dirt canister could be perfectly upright and vertical. This way the bin could fill more evenly and not allow the fluff and grit to overfill the line in the back part of the canister that leans back
i want to get this cleaner but i'm not crazy about the fact that you can't pull the filter and wash it your self. how big of an issue is it for you? does this machine need to be serviced by dyson to clean the filter? i'll stick with my DC28 for now i guess... :^(
When I use the turbin brush I feel as if its too powerful and lifts my carpets is there a button to lower the power? I know there is one on the other tool.
There is no button on the turbine to lower the power as far as I remember. The only thing you can do is reduce the suction using the control on the handle.
I bought my V6 absolute 6 months ago and I see now the v8 model is out. the only thing I am jealous about is that cool new bin dumping they have. that is a perfect solution to the dyson problem. how do you like it?
No, it's not worth the current price of £450, but I expect there will be another Dyson promotion to reduce that. I would never have spent that sort of money on this cleaner, so it's only thanks to AO that I got one to review. Dyson do a very similar machine with a filter that is considerably cheaper, so I would go for that one if I had to have a Dyson.
If you want a Dyson cylinder, I would look at the big ball animal that uses a filter as it is currently on offer and much cheaper than the Cinetic version.
this was a very great demo. i feel the bin is to small. and they still have the turbine head. have you watched my cinetic vs ball multifloor? you see all the dirt it leaves behind.
This Dyson is not what I would call a deep cleaner, but I think most people wouod be happy with its performance. The bin is larger than my last Dyson canister and I think it's an acceptable size when used to pick up regular amounts of household dust and dirt. I haven't watched that video, I will check it out.
I own one of these Dysons and vacuumed my whole upstairs of my house and then went back over with a Dyson DC50 Animal which has the powered brushbar and this cylinder Dyson left nothing behind.
Thanks for an excellent and honest assessment. How do you like the hose and wand setup? It looks like an improvement, but is it comfortable to use? The short inflexible hose, and heavy bulky wands, have been the downfall of every Dyson canister I've used.
The hose is a little short but seems flexible enough and the wand is a thinner and easier to handle. I have never found any Dyson cylinder to be particularly convenient or easy to use, though this is the best so far but I prefer a bagged cylinder personally.
You mention picking up large amounts of flour is not recommended. Is this because aerated flour or other fine dust can explode? I don't think it's because it'll clog or otherwise damage the machine.
I assume it's because the so called self cleaning cyclones can't cope with it. I personally would go for the version that still has filters as there is no warning about picking up fine dust.
I'm still of the opinion that it is not the best idea to use the same brushroll on bare floors as on carpets. Bare floors can have all sorts of residue from liquid floor cleaners, soaps, beverages waxes and dried food such as berries that would be picked up by a rapidly spinning brush roll. This dirt could easily be transferred to carpeting if the brush roll was not washed and rinsed beforehand. This seems to be a new trend with vacuum cleaners - very popular in Japan believe it or not. For over a decade, Japanese vacuums have featured nozzles that have spinning mini brushrolls meant for use in bare floors which can buff floors and even remove heel marks. I much prefer to use a clean "carpet only" brush roll on my rugs. But that's just crazy me! 😊
I prefer to use a straight suction nozzle with soft brushes on hard floors like my Miele parquet twister. I also like the Shark nozzle with the removeable microfibre pad as it gets the large debris and the fine dust.
No it's mine to keep, or sell. All I had to do is submit a written review on ao's website and make a video review between 2 and 10 minutes. I did go over 10 minutes but ao said it was fine.
Very good video as always Roger, I have applied for a vacuum to test from AO.com as well, hope I get offered something I like. I am quite impressed with that turbine head, think it works really well. PS you look like Rusty in this video! Maybe you could be twins separated at birth lol.
There's a good chance you will be offered a vacuum to test as many people have commented that they have also had a free vac from AO.com. I had the choice of three Dysons, two Zanussi vacs or an AEG handheld. I chose the most expensive Dyson naturally. I can apply to review another product for them, but I have to wait six months apparently. Rusty is years older than me and common as muck, so there's no way we could have both come out of my mum's noo noo. 😜
Lucky :) I just sent them a link to my DC33 review (newest video of mine) and am awaiting for their response. I am surprised you got offered that many vacuums! I thought it was a choice of 4. I was told I would have to wait 6 months to apply again too. I am looking forwards to what Rusty will have in response as well haha :P
Simon Robinson don’t get a shark mine broke after a year such waste of money the plastic crack and snap really easy and you CONSTANTLY have to clean the filters or it won’t work. After that I bought a dyson cinetic and it works great for all the different floors in my house however for my future needs it won’t work well I will be trading it for a riccar prima canister with the tandem air nozzle So for bagless dyson hands down over any other bagless machine
No, it's two spare bits of laminate floor I got from my mum's house. It's easier to film the hard floor demos in the same room as the carpet cleaning ones as I don't have to move all my equipment. I have just ordered one pack of gloss black laminate tiles to use in my demos as I needed a slighly larger area of floor to film with.
I am wondering how my wooden floors would look after dragging this heavy machine over it - especially with the sides of it. And what about the machine itself? Don't yo think it might look entirely beat up after two years?
I wouldn't want to use this cleaner on any floors that are subject to scratching as the wheels underneath are hard plastic with no rubber tyres to protect the floor. Mine won't look beat up after two years because I look after my things and if I keep it, it won't be used on a regular basis. The one thing that I can't stop is the bin going cloudy which happens in a very short time with every Dyson and other bagless cleaner I've owned.
+ibaisaic thank you I have liked the page , your so lucky you have so many hoovers I don't have one at the moment as I had to send it back it was a pay weekly one the dyson dc40 I loved it was gutted to see it go being a bit ocd 😂😂
+mineDog ao.com/product/cy23animal-dyson-big-ball-cylinder-vacuum-cleaner-grey-41387-59.aspx?cmredirectionvalue=CY23%20Animal_IR Is it the same as this? This is the one I am getting
A lot of people don't understand but the bagless technology is not superior to the traditional vacuums that everybody hates because they are too heavy and ugly. The problem with Dyson is that they are over-engineered. What does that mean? It means that they try so hard to create something that does EXACTLY what they want it to do and they don't stop to think about what is actually the most logical thing and the best for the consumer. Many "commercial" vacuums utilize a direct air system which means that the fan directly contacts the air flow and the motor is in the same space that the dirt passes. Designing it this way helps the motor last a long time because it is being cooled by the air that is passing by. The dirt then travels directly into a bag that is made out of HEPA material so it is just as hygienic as any other vacuum. Dyson doesn't sell their vacuums, they sell their lifestyle...which is a problem because many people will shell out the money because they think they are buying the best when in fact they are buying something far inferior to what is available. Dysons are the top-shelf vacuum in stores so people buy them because they are marketed this way. The same think goes for ALL of their other products, except maybe their hand-dryers Another thing that many people don't realize is that vacuums were originally designed to be bagless but they started to add bags because of the terrible mess that you end up with when you try to empty the dirt. You still have to deal with this dirt mess if you ever want to clean out your Dyson dirt bin or else you will lose suction and your vacuum will start to retain bad odors and get clogged with dirt, pet hair, human hair etc., so you still have to deal with the disgusting mess. With a direct air system you don't have to worry about this because there is no where for the clog to occur and the bag that apparently is such a chore to replace is completely sealed and you can just throw it away when its full. As far as I am concerned, Dyson vacuums and products are a scam.
Completely agree! I have a bagged Miele cannister and a Dyson cannister and V6 cordless. However shiny and space-age esque the design and marketing is. I constantly spend time maintaining the Dyson's by cleaning, poking, brushing and vacuuming out the parts and cones only to return to a hassle free and sanitary Miele. Sure the bags may cost a small fortune in Australia but for a house of asthmatics and selectively lazy? Priceless. Plus the miele is German made but I'm not even going to start on that!
we just bought 1 today,the best vacuum i have ever owned bar none,expensive,but worth every cent
What’s your long term review of it?

Yes, Dyson need to get the noise level down on all of their cleaners.
+ibaisaic Dyson vacuums are very reliable
Dysons are far from durable.Not sure what planet you live on.
+Numatic Collector I know I'm just saying that they work better than conventional vacuums
You know all about that one sir.cough *dc24* cough

Das Teil ist der Hammer, nutze den auch. Die Bürsten machen ihren Job - und das richtig gut.

love the clips at the end in the right corner continue with that please 😊
I've been doing that on most of my latest videos.
Why
The bin size is really hopeless. I see adverts bragging large 3L capacity for bagless machines. It is impossible to get to a 7.5 or 10L bin
Hi I have a question please I don’t understand how to open the brush for the floor if hair stuck there
Which one you recommand?
this dyson or the new miele Blizzard CX1?
Thanks
A bagged Miele.
which model do you recommend for just wood floor with 1 pet?
and if i really need to choose a bagless vacuum which one you recommend?
Thanks
If I could only have one vacuum cleaner, it would be bagged.
@ibaisaic Which would be best out of the following: Animal Pro, CX1 Cat & Dog, C3 Cat & Dog?
I would really like one with a mini turbo brush, which I believe rules out the CX1.
How does the mini turbo brush between the Animal Pro and the C3 compare?
How do you clean the hard floor tool for this machine? I have some dust and hair stuck in the bristles of that attachment
Wonderful review, thank you. Do you have a canister vacuum that you recommend that cleans well but is quieter than the Dyson? I am on my second Miele canister (their purported superior filtration prompted their purchases). I am pretty unsatisfied by their suction, durability and sticker prices, but they are quiet.

Any Miele cylinder would be quieter and easier to use than this Dyson, but many people prefer bagless nowadays.
Once i invested in a turbo brush for it, it was much easier and with excellent results ! I dare say Miele may last longer too... !!
I don't think Miele will last the 20 years they claim, but if looked after you should get many years of service from it.
Come 2017 all machines have to achieve a minimum noise spec anyway so expect much quieter machines all round! But loved this review!

My wife and I have this but we had several problems with it. First of all it sometimes made a strange 'whistling' noise where the wand connects to the hose. The brushes on the floor turbo head wore down quickly and eventually the brushbar simply jammed and didn't spin at all. The switch on the standard floor head that changes the carpet/hard floor mode snapped. The suction control on the standard floor head was fiddly to adjust and it either superglued itself to the carpet or didn't suck at all. The bin release didn't always open/close properly.
However it did have a small saving grace. The anti-tangle mini turbo tool was excellent on stairs and upholstery. It really dug down well into the carpet on the stairs. WHY couldn't Dyson make a larger version of the said tool for floors?
For this reason we have kept the machine but only use it to clean the car, as my wife doesn't want me taking her brand new Miele outside.
Can the attachments connect directly to the hose without that huge chunky handle?
Hi there! I have been watching your reviews on both Shark and Dyson pet vacuum cleaners. I have 3 DSHs (but thick fur) and 1 medium lengthed fur cat. They shed, quite a lot, on upholstery, carpets, furniture.. practically everywhere. And I occasionally find their litter crystals on the tiles as well.

Does Big Ball upright have better cleaning ability for pet hair with motorized cleaning head?
Do you have or could you demonstrate how to clean the canister/ball... we've had ours about 4 years and now when turned on smells like dog.
Really enjoyed watching video thanks
What do you think of the cinetic upright would love to see your review
Great review! Just wondering when you are doing a v6 review, as I am considering getting one for myself. Thankyou!
Should be on my channel in a week or two.
Would love to see your top 5 main and cordless vacuum cleaners, thing it will be very useful! Great job!
I will be featuring a few cordless vacuums soon and plan a comparison video between them.
It will not you dummy
Great review, well filmed and demonstrated Thanks you.
Would you advice to take the cylinder carbon fiber head for removing long hairs. I havé heard that rolling head (not Dyson's in particular) are bad at it.
Long hairs get wrapped round the brushroll on any vacuum with a revolving brush, you just need to make sure you keep them clean. Personally I would have thought that the carbon fibre brushes on this Dyson would soon become damaged if long hairs are allowed to build up on the brush roll.
Can it handle leaves etc (from my plants...)
I think I saw you testing the Animal Pro 2 without the Cinectic. Are there any differences between the Cinetic and non-Cinetic one? I just got my Cinetic today and it's absolutely powerless. I am so disappointed. There is not enough power to keep the brush rotating on a carpet.
It is quite silent though. I was thinking that has the Cinetic been ruined by EU's noise and power regulations as you mentioned at some point. Is the non-Cinetic model perhaps louder and therefore more powerful?
That is weird that it is powerless 🤔
Can you show us how effective those cyclones are without the pre-filter? Does allow any debris to pass through the motor intake? Did you see any sign of residue, particularly fine dust, accumulate around the motor intake after your "torture test"?
I haven't used this since the demo and plan to sell it, so I can't comment on how this will stand up to regular use, though I personally would get the cheaper version with the filters. I have read complaints about the uprght Cinetic letting dust through to the motor and I wouldn't be surprised if the cylinder does the same thing.
Hellow :) Im looking to buy a Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animalpro canister vacuum just like you have here. I saw from some videos that the cinetic UPRIGHT does NOT catch all the dust with the cinetic tips (result: dirty post-motor HEPA filter). Does the same thing happen to the Cinetic canister after weeks/months/years of use? with the canister, where the cinetic tips do not catch everything and dirt goes to the post-motor filter? Did you see any dust where the motor is? Is it better to get just a Big Ball canister with a pre-motor filter? :) love your videos! :D
@JohnnyL8 I totally agree
Can the dust bin detach from the main body so I can clean the dust bin completely with a cloth. My DC50 upright bin can be detached completely from the main body. Otherwise, dust will remain in the bin and it become loaded with dirt with each passing year. Dyson products are great in that every part is designed to detach for cleaning. I was thinking about purchasing the Dyson Big Ball Canister vacuum .
WAS...
Does the Cinetic Big Ball (Cylinder) have any issue on the HEPA filter being clogged up? I came across with some youtube channel that they do have filter inside the machine and it will eventually clogged up.
The cinetic version of the machine has no filters.
The reason they don't want you picking up small particles like ash and flour is because there IS a permanent filter. The finer debris will clog the filter over time.
It doesn't tell you not to vacuum flour and fine powder because it might get in places that would make it break, it says that because it doesn't want you to cause a quite dangerous **dust explosion**.
I will reply with one of my favourite English words. "Bollocks!" 🙂
It is actually so it does bypass the cyclones and entering the motor
Alright, I'm sold, one of these will be shipped to me by Amazon - or I may just buy it in a department store somewhere around Seattle. Thanks for the review, sir.
And? Are you happy with your purchase 4 months later?
Well, fascinated by the its design and because I have 3 dogs and two cats I bought this vacuum cleaner one year ago. I only use it to vacuum the pet hairs from the sofas and pillows. I like very much its little rotative power brush for that purpose. Otherwise I don´t like it at all, it's too noisy, too bulky, the hose is too short, the cord is also not long enough and doesn't retract well. The pneumatic floor tool is very hard to maneuver and the carpeat rotative brush although it has a shape and a wheel that makes you believe that is very effective it really isn't, it jams when pulling and looses rotativity very soon. I have a Henry by Numatic and prefer from very far to use it instead of dyson pro animal. It was much cheaper, it has a bigger and stronger power brush, it is very silent, it has a very big hose and cord, a large dust bin and it is very silent.
I wonder if the lights will go dim when using this vacuum? When I use my dc25, the lights go dim which shows how it's not energy efficient. Every time I turn on the Miele vacuum, the lights never go dim thanks to the efficient gentle start motor.
Sounds like your wiring is faulty.
Nothing to do with "efficiency". Your DC25 has a 1200W motor inside and your Miele most likely something around ~700W. More energy draw = more suction
I have the Total Clean Big Ball Cylinder (not cinetic). It is the same as the Animal but came with two more cleaning attachments and was cheaper than the Animal when I bought it from Dyson UK. I like it but not as much as my Small Ball Upright.
I baed today dayson cy26,and I very happy!
So is there any point in using the muscle head?
Also, maybe you should have tested the Tangle free with the bag of filth. It is an excellent attachement and it would have been interseting to see how it does when it needs to clean up large amounts of dirt. But still, the best dyson you have tested yet.
I think Dyson supply a regular carpet/floor tool for people with carpets that shouldn't be cleaned with a revolving brush. If I were to use this Cinetic as my daily vacuum, I would probably never use the regular floor tool.
Please, would you make a video of resetting the main brush head?
noctis1 Ru check ask dyson‘ s RUclips channel they should help
It would be nice if they could design the machine so that the dirt canister could be perfectly upright and vertical. This way the bin could fill more evenly and not allow the fluff and grit to overfill the line in the back part of the canister that leans back
Are you planning to test the newest Electrolux UltraSilencer Zen canister?
We don't have Electrolux in the UK and the Zen model is not available here even under the AEG brand.
Need to buy my first Hoover so don't ant to spend hundreds.. What would you recommend? What Hoover do you use daily?
I use a Shark Powered Lift Away at the moment.
i want to get this cleaner but i'm not crazy about the fact that you can't pull the filter and wash it your self. how big of an issue is it for you? does this machine need to be serviced by dyson to clean the filter? i'll stick with my DC28 for now i guess... :^(
Not being able to clean the filter has not been an issue for me as this cleaner has been in its box since the demo.
A very nice review Roger, well done.
Thanks.
When I use the turbin brush I feel as if its too powerful and lifts my carpets is there a button to lower the power? I know there is one on the other tool.
There is no button on the turbine to lower the power as far as I remember. The only thing you can do is reduce the suction using the control on the handle.
I bought my V6 absolute 6 months ago and I see now the v8 model is out. the only thing I am jealous about is that cool new bin dumping they have. that is a perfect solution to the dyson problem. how do you like it?
I like it enough to sell it.
+ibaisaic i have that
+ibaisaic i bought mine in argos
So in your opinion, is it worth the price tag? Great review and demonstration by the way!
No, it's not worth the current price of £450, but I expect there will be another Dyson promotion to reduce that. I would never have spent that sort of money on this cleaner, so it's only thanks to AO that I got one to review. Dyson do a very similar machine with a filter that is considerably cheaper, so I would go for that one if I had to have a Dyson.
+ibaisaic thanks so much for letting me know!
If you want a Dyson cylinder, I would look at the big ball animal that uses a filter as it is currently on offer and much cheaper than the Cinetic version.
Whats the lifetime of one of these? Mine is getting very hot with funny burning smell.
this was a very great demo. i feel the bin is to small. and they still have the turbine head. have you watched my cinetic vs ball multifloor? you see all the dirt it leaves behind.
This Dyson is not what I would call a deep cleaner, but I think most people wouod be happy with its performance. The bin is larger than my last Dyson canister and I think it's an acceptable size when used to pick up regular amounts of household dust and dirt. I haven't watched that video, I will check it out.
I own one of these Dysons and vacuumed my whole upstairs of my house and then went back over with a Dyson DC50 Animal which has the powered brushbar and this cylinder Dyson left nothing behind.
Thanks for an excellent and honest assessment. How do you like the hose and wand setup? It looks like an improvement, but is it comfortable to use? The short inflexible hose, and heavy bulky wands, have been the downfall of every Dyson canister I've used.
The hose is a little short but seems flexible enough and the wand is a thinner and easier to handle. I have never found any Dyson cylinder to be particularly convenient or easy to use, though this is the best so far but I prefer a bagged cylinder personally.
Any idea why Dyson felt the need to change the tool connector? I couldn't see anything wrong with the last one.
I find the old one quite difficult to connect- I look forward to trying the new one.
is it supposed to come with the square flat head for hard floors. mine is not in the box.
Jackie Kraemer mine didnt either come with it
thanks for the review. How about storage. With uprights, everything is onboard. How about for this new cylinder style?
This will store in a low cupboard unlike an upright, but it has a slighly larger footprint.
Hey you fucker you are an review storage
You mention picking up large amounts of flour is not recommended. Is this because aerated flour or other fine dust can explode? I don't think it's because it'll clog or otherwise damage the machine.
I assume it's because the so called self cleaning cyclones can't cope with it. I personally would go for the version that still has filters as there is no warning about picking up fine dust.
I'm still of the opinion that it is not the best idea to use the same brushroll on bare floors as on carpets. Bare floors can have all sorts of residue from liquid floor cleaners, soaps, beverages waxes and dried food such as berries that would be picked up by a rapidly spinning brush roll. This dirt could easily be transferred to carpeting if the brush roll was not washed and rinsed beforehand. This seems to be a new trend with vacuum cleaners - very popular in Japan believe it or not. For over a decade, Japanese vacuums have featured nozzles that have spinning mini brushrolls meant for use in bare floors which can buff floors and even remove heel marks. I much prefer to use a clean "carpet only" brush roll on my rugs. But that's just crazy me! 😊
I prefer to use a straight suction nozzle with soft brushes on hard floors like my Miele parquet twister. I also like the Shark nozzle with the removeable microfibre pad as it gets the large debris and the fine dust.
+ibaisaic Agreed! By the way...excellent review....very professional! Do you get to keep the vacuum? Or do you have to give it back?
No it's mine to keep, or sell. All I had to do is submit a written review on ao's website and make a video review between 2 and 10 minutes. I did go over 10 minutes but ao said it was fine.
Great video, thanks.
Very good video as always Roger, I have applied for a vacuum to test from AO.com as well, hope I get offered something I like. I am quite impressed with that turbine head, think it works really well. PS you look like Rusty in this video! Maybe you could be twins separated at birth lol.
There's a good chance you will be offered a vacuum to test as many people have commented that they have also had a free vac from AO.com. I had the choice of three Dysons, two Zanussi vacs or an AEG handheld. I chose the most expensive Dyson naturally.
I can apply to review another product for them, but I have to wait six months apparently.
Rusty is years older than me and common as muck, so there's no way we could have both come out of my mum's noo noo. 😜
Lucky :) I just sent them a link to my DC33 review (newest video of mine) and am awaiting for their response. I am surprised you got offered that many vacuums! I thought it was a choice of 4. I was told I would have to wait 6 months to apply again too.
I am looking forwards to what Rusty will have in response as well haha :P
A dc75 Dyson or a shark nv801. I'm trying to decide which one unless there are any other better vacuums.
Simon Robinson don’t get a shark mine broke after a year such waste of money the plastic crack and snap really easy and you CONSTANTLY have to clean the filters or it won’t work. After that I bought a dyson cinetic and it works great for all the different floors in my house however for my future needs it won’t work well I will be trading it for a riccar prima canister with the tandem air nozzle
So for bagless dyson hands down over any other bagless machine
Can you use the v6's soft roller brush on this dyson using the adapter
I don't know, but even if the adaptor fitted, the roller would not turn as it needs an electric supply.
Can you buy any of a rainbow vacumm i love them and also i have the e2 2010 model rainbow but i love all of them.
Rainbow vacuums are not very common in the UK and very expensive, so I doubt I will be able to get one.
Hello do you have a Kirby or Rainbow vacuum? if so could you please demo please!! excellent review by the way!
I'll take my 40 year old Kirby over a dyson any day
Roger, did you get a new kitchen floor? Looks very nice!
No, it's two spare bits of laminate floor I got from my mum's house. It's easier to film the hard floor demos in the same room as the carpet cleaning ones as I don't have to move all my equipment. I have just ordered one pack of gloss black laminate tiles to use in my demos as I needed a slighly larger area of floor to film with.
Have you tried the upright cinetic would love to see that
It is discontinued in the UK, but I may get one if I see it at a good price. I will be featuring a new Dyson upright soon.
ibaisaic I have the cinetic upright and I love it. Will look forward to the new upright your showing
Julia Sharples ii
Try closing the door on the bottom of the bin first, then pushing up. I think that's how you're supposed to.
I am wondering how my wooden floors would look after dragging this heavy machine over it - especially with the sides of it. And what about the machine itself? Don't yo think it might look entirely beat up after two years?
I wouldn't want to use this cleaner on any floors that are subject to scratching as the wheels underneath are hard plastic with no rubber tyres to protect the floor. Mine won't look beat up after two years because I look after my things and if I keep it, it won't be used on a regular basis. The one thing that I can't stop is the bin going cloudy which happens in a very short time with every Dyson and other bagless cleaner I've owned.
Thanks for the info!
Love your channel thanks for sharing
Do you sell your hoovers once you've reviewed or got fed up of them as I would be interested?
If I sell any I will let people know on my Facebook page or make a video. I normally sell them on ebay. facebook.com/ibaisaic/
+ibaisaic thank you I have liked the page , your so lucky you have so many hoovers I don't have one at the moment as I had to send it back it was a pay weekly one the dyson dc40 I loved it was gutted to see it go being a bit ocd 😂😂
have you got any for sale
I got your favourite shity hoover for sale you fat
Thank you for the through test runs, very impressive Dyson indeed, it seems to be worth the money.
I got this free, I doubt I would pay for one.
We actually thought it was the Big Ball, then we double checked and saw that it's the Animal. So now we're considering the "normal" Big Ball.
This vacuum may be loud. But the bissel powerforce clear view bagless is as loud as a shop vac. My cat be like 😶 ☹ when it starts up!
I got a fright lol when u opened the bin lol keep up the good vids rodger
+ibaisaic
When you posted the review onto their website did it go up straight away or did it take time to go up?
It was up within an hour.
+ibaisaic
I sent in my review yesterday it's on their I did post the link into the correct section but it doesn't seem to be on their
I've just checked and it is on their website.
+ibaisaic
Oh I meant the video that I posted is not their
If it's the same video that's on your youtube channel then it is there. Are you sure you're looking under the correct model?
This is available now in Dubai,
Omg thanks! It saved my holiday lol
I saw the tangle free turbine tool in Walmart today
My grandma prefers dyson vacuums
My Cinetic Big Ball Animal CY23 arrives tomorrow
I'm getting that model as well. Unfortunately, I think it's not the Cinetic version, but it's got 252 airways. So still plenty of suction.
+mineDog ao.com/product/cy23animal-dyson-big-ball-cylinder-vacuum-cleaner-grey-41387-59.aspx?cmredirectionvalue=CY23%20Animal_IR
Is it the same as this? This is the one I am getting
Carlover16 Yes that's the one.
+mineDog doesn't say whether it is a Cinetic or not. If it is not Cinetic it would have a filter wouldn't it?
Yours has a filter which means you should be able to pick up flour which is not recommended with the Cinetic.
Can I ask how many vacume cleaners you've got. Is there a vacume heaven in the attic?
I haven't counted recently, but possibly around 250. I have a vacuum heaven in 2 attics and 2 garages.
ibaisaic Goodness. We though 2 vacumes where over kill, but 250, that's a whole other level. Some excellent reviews by yourself though.
Thank u very much..Excellently!!!i like all ur videos !!!Also i love Dyson..ve got DC 52..
Can you do Dyson cinetic big ball animalpro 2 Review!?
thank you for this
does it come with ear defenders?
No, but you can buy the optional Dyson branded ones for £200.
Recommend Vorwerk Kobalt 140
A lot of people don't understand but the bagless technology is not superior to the traditional vacuums that everybody hates because they are too heavy and ugly. The problem with Dyson is that they are over-engineered. What does that mean? It means that they try so hard to create something that does EXACTLY what they want it to do and they don't stop to think about what is actually the most logical thing and the best for the consumer. Many "commercial" vacuums utilize a direct air system which means that the fan directly contacts the air flow and the motor is in the same space that the dirt passes. Designing it this way helps the motor last a long time because it is being cooled by the air that is passing by. The dirt then travels directly into a bag that is made out of HEPA material so it is just as hygienic as any other vacuum.
Dyson doesn't sell their vacuums, they sell their lifestyle...which is a problem because many people will shell out the money because they think they are buying the best when in fact they are buying something far inferior to what is available. Dysons are the top-shelf vacuum in stores so people buy them because they are marketed this way. The same think goes for ALL of their other products, except maybe their hand-dryers
Another thing that many people don't realize is that vacuums were originally designed to be bagless but they started to add bags because of the terrible mess that you end up with when you try to empty the dirt. You still have to deal with this dirt mess if you ever want to clean out your Dyson dirt bin or else you will lose suction and your vacuum will start to retain bad odors and get clogged with dirt, pet hair, human hair etc., so you still have to deal with the disgusting mess. With a direct air system you don't have to worry about this because there is no where for the clog to occur and the bag that apparently is such a chore to replace is completely sealed and you can just throw it away when its full. As far as I am concerned, Dyson vacuums and products are a scam.
I agree. I prefer bagged machines myself.
Completely agree! I have a bagged Miele cannister and a Dyson cannister and V6 cordless. However shiny and space-age esque the design and marketing is. I constantly spend time maintaining the Dyson's by cleaning, poking, brushing and vacuuming out the parts and cones only to return to a hassle free and sanitary Miele. Sure the bags may cost a small fortune in Australia but for a house of asthmatics and selectively lazy? Priceless.
Plus the miele is German made but I'm not even going to start on that!
How does it cope with coal dust?
