Once you have a Dyson you never go back!

published

Dyson vacuum cleaners are the best in the market! Great suction,easy to turn around. No need to vacuum over the same patch twice! Picks up everything first go.I have a lot of carpet and live in a 2 bedroom apartment. Makes cleaning a breeze! Plus you do not need vacuum bags!

Not as great as i expected

published

It is a good vacuum cleaner however the brand doesn't live up to expectation as much as I thought it would. It gets full easy, the suction isn't as great as advertisements state for the amount of money you pay. I would like to try the stick vacuum version of this as I have seen great reviews however feel like the big ball origin is bulky for the amount you can vacuum up.

Great vacuum

published

Got upsold to this vacuum but very happy with it. Suction is great, ease of cleaning is fantastic and i love the multi-floor head. It is a bit big so storage is a little bit of a hassle, and it's not quite as maneuverable as other vacuums. Quite expensive but did get a good price for it.

Good vacuum cleaner

published

I enjoy my dyson vacuum cleaner. It is definitely better than my old thirty dollar vacuum cleaner. Now I only need to vacuum over cat hair once and it is removed from the carpet. It is easy to empty and I like the different attachments. The cord is a bit short and I have to use an extension cord with it.

Good replacement for your old vacuum

published

We have had this vacuum for 2 years before buying a Dyson V7 Animal. It is a good vacuum, but suffers from the drawbacks of all corded vacuum cleaners (i.e., you need to unplug it when you run out of cord). The ball shape suffers a bit as it rolls over easily, but overall I'd recommend it.

Excellent product, would recommend!

published

Best vacuum cleaner I’ve ever used. Has great suction and easy to clean. I found it slightly bulky getting around but relatively light weight and really easy to manoeuvre with the swivel function of the ball. It’s a relatively quiet vacuum. Comes with 2 attachments great for the car/sofa etc.

does the job but to heavy!

published

it is what you learn to accept from Dyson, a powerful, solid and does the job of vacuuming(not our favorite chore to do)

not easy to clean the barrel, my hands always get dirty, it is a big barrel and a heavy one

as we paid quite a bit for it it is hear to stay but my next dyson will be a smaller lighter version

Best in class

published

We are very happy with the suction, is one of the best on the market. The machine is light and easy to maneuver specially under the beds. We have a two story house 38 sq.m.mostly carpet and this machine does the job adequately. The only draw back is the price.

Came up short

published

While I am happy with the suction and maneuverability. I found the Instruction Manual very inadequate. It needs to be written as well as diagrams.Took me ages to assemble, and use it. And the clip on the dust barrell comes undone all the time creating a mess when emptying it

Great suction and cleaning system

published

Coming from a bag vacuum this has blown my mind. The suction is unbelievable and makes me sick the first time I used it thinking my carpet was clean. The cord could be longer which my last one was 10m but small things to pick at. I think the arm/handle is to bulky and heavy and doesnt counter weight when lifting by the handle, feels like it would snap if kept doing it. Also the wheels dont run over the cord very easy, just little things I get annoyed with. But the system itself is amazing and I got this for under $500 on sale at the Good Guys. Worth that but wouldn't pay top end for it.

Excellent!

published

First, this is probably my 4th vacuum and I was not very happy with the previous 3.
My place is almost totally carpeted, and I really need a solid machine with good suction, and guess what this Dyson (again) does the job beautifully.
Not to mention, the design (ball) is also a plus. It stands up by itself after gets knocked off.

Dyson always good

published

I have both timber floor and carpet as well as vinyl in my place. The Dyson Ball is as good as the old Dyson I bought before. Always a good investment with Dyson. Easy to move around, suction is very strong. Only downside is the cleaning is not that convenient.

Good

It's a very good vacuum but the head isn't great it's a bit flimsy & doesn't pick up well I recommend the vacuum it's self but recommend buying a better head for it . It's a pretty good vacuum for the price, they need to have a bette head and add different attachments

Questions & Answers

Sandra Robinsonasked

I have a Dyson Big Ball and while it sucks ok without the head on as soon as i put the head on it blows!! I end up with dirt spread all over the floor and none in the vacuum. What is the solution to this?

Hi Sandra,

Thank you for reaching out.

Based on this, it sounds like there is a blockage or restriction in airflow through the machine which can cause this to happen.

For a Big Ball Origin, please remove the floor tool and thoroughly check the airways for anything caught prior to retrying the machine.

If you aren't able to locate any blockages or we can assist further, please reach out to [email protected] and our Dyson Experts will be more than happy to assist further.

Best wishes,

Shan
