The suction is great as I mentioned before but like I predicted the wand is not strong enough it's leaking air from most joints and the lower one that connects to the floor attachment cracked I had to glue it but it's not gonna hold it's like buying a Ferrari but all the inside is plastic .

Found this vacuum very difficult to manoeuvre, it's heavy and has to be picked up in order to move it backwards. The cord is too short making it necessary to unplug and move to an alternate power outlet as one moves around the house. It does not travel around corners and furniture readily and has to be moved manually. It is a powerful vacuum cleaner and does indeed pick up much more than previously owned cleaners but the suction is too strong for rugs. It would be a good idea to try it out on a carpeted area before purchasing.

We purchased The Big Ball Multi Floor about 8 months ago and it was our 3rd Dyson we have had over the years. This has to be the worst vacuum they have ever made. It's bulky and catches on every external skirting board it encounters and damages them as well. It's a pain in the butt to drag around and the handle is horrible. I think I'll be retiring this one to the garage earlier than expected and trying a different brand next time. Sorry Dyson but it's a big THUMBS DOWN on this one.

I bought this Dyson to replace a small cheapie so obviously this was a huge step up! The cleaning power was noticeable from the first vacuum. It's so much easier to manoeuvre than any other vacuum I've owned before and doesn't tip because of the ball. I have noticed the suction diminishing even though I wash the top filter frequently and empty the canister after every vacuum (it's pretty much full after cleaning my entire 2 bedroom unit) but it's still powerful enough to pull up the carpet fibres and lift the lino off the kitchen floor!

3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 children and it gets all the fur up with ease. best product ever.
My 5 year old uses it with ease and the added bonus of it being a Dyson makes me happy
10/10 recommend for all families, not overly loud either.

My kids are autistic and doesn't bother them.

This is an amazingly powerful machine. Compared to my standard stock cleaner, that mostly gives you a "psychological" satisfaction of cleaning your house, this one is a beast that literally sucks up all the dirt! Very expensive, but absolutely worth the price. If you have kids or someone that suffers dust allergy, this is a must!

Chose not to go with the stick vacuum, this one was on sale and couldn't go past it for the price. Really easy to set up and use. The design of the Dyson's are really something else, really like the big ball feature and haven't had any issues with its functionality. We have laminated flooring so the head that comes with this is perfect as more popular rotating bristle heads are not ideal

Bought this vac 2 months ago an I cannot get rid of the smell from it. I have 2 dogs and whilst the suction is excellent the smell is terrible. Have cleaned the filter as per instructions and really don’t know what else I can do. Have cleaned the vac only as per the instructions.

This vacuum has been my favourite cleaning product to date, it has a special feature to help stop it from tipping over it just flips itself back upright, has barely any filters to clean and has many many attachments to use for different areas of the house, eg carpet, stairs, dry floor, hard to reach places aswell.

No regrets. Money well spent. We almost got talked out of it by a family member but decided to go with a Dyson anyway and couldn't be happier. We have 2 kids and pets and it does an amazing job.
Picks up kid crumbs our old one never could and pet hair.. oh it does great on that

My home is 3 bedrooms carpet,floorboards and tiles
Excellent sucking power, easy to maneuver around my home and clean up after mess my toddler has made especially playdough
The noise level on this is great my toddler sleeps through it
My previous model was the DC08 and in comparison the big ball runs circles around it

This is the first Dyson I bought. After using a cheap vacuum cleaner over 4 years, I decided to upgrade and the difference was seen immediately. So far, it has been quite reliable and it has cleaned extremely well. The only downside is that is not as maneuverable as they showed in the commercial.

Very powerful vacuum cleaner, you get a lot of attachments with it. The brush in the head is brilliant for picking up dust. It is reasonably quiet and very easy to move around. Maybe the hose could be a bit longer. It works well on both carpet and vinyl floors, doesn't take long to clean our 3 bedroom home

Dyson products made of cheap plastic that falls apart but still charge big $$. Wheel fell off, (which dyson addmitted to having a faulty part and did fix the wheel) but the wheels still dont turn properly making it hard to pull, the swivel head fell apart, plastic bends in connections of tube, handle broke, loss of suction, floor heads clogg up, barrell does not seal properly. Don't waste your money buying this product. I have owned dyson products previously to purchasing this vacuum but I will never purchase dyson again.

picks up everything on the floor. we have s house with carpet and tiles so cleaning the mess on the carpet is extremely easy with this vacuum cleaner! it’s quite pricey but definitely worth the infestations for a good long lasting vacuum that does the job right and doesn’t leave crumbs everywhere!!!

I use this to vacuum my entire house. It's compact so it's easy to move around (I can lift it up to reach higher places to dust for example). I feel like its suction has reduced in the few months I've used it could just be that it needs a clean.

I used a well-known company vacuum cleaner for over a year. It was good and I never complained about it until I saw Dyson's vacuum cleaner at my sister's place. it was great. I offered her to help with the vacuum and I was so impressed with the result. I couldn't wait to buy one for myself and I must say that it is by far the best vacuum cleaner I have seen. I am always shocked to see the dust cup, to know how much dust resides in my home. I feel my home is cleaner and fresh thoroughly. I and my husband haven't had sneezing viral cold for over a year since we started using this.

Sure it sucks well but the wheel fell off - literally. Took it back to Good Guys to take advantage of "no hassle" warranty and found I had to take it to the post office to post away to be fixed. This was 6 weeks ago and I'm still waiting........ Reading over the reviews here it seems this is a common problem. Sure - I get that some things can be improved by innovation, but after 5000 years of refining the wheel you think the engineers at Dyson might understand that redesigning the wheel with a plastic axle the thickness of a pencil might be pushing things.
