 Not for Cat Fur December 16, 2006
13 out of 14 found this review helpful
I bought this unit to pick up the odd tufts of cat fur that blow around the premises. Unfortunately, cat fur tended to collect up at the top of the collection chamber and get stuck there. Even removing the chamber didn't dislodge it, so I had to use either a finger or a chopstick to dislodge the wads of fur. Since I am allergic to cat fur and wanted to be able to pick it up and dispose of it with minimum exposure, this wasn't satisfactory.
Also, pulling the trigger to start the vacuum required a bit too much finger movement. A more sensitive switch would have been less fatiguing to use.
Other than that I liked this unit. I kept it on the charger most of the time and since I was using it to clean up just a few trouble spots the battery life was more than good enough for me.
 bought it based on the name Dyson - big mistake December 15, 2006

This is no better than any other portable vacuum that we have owned, and believe me we have been through several. I am really disappointed in this vacuum. It has a short battery life, and hsa such an odd shape that it makes it less than ideal for vacuuming in tight spots such as under car seats.

I read in a review of this prior to it's release that as soon as the battery looses voltage, the unit shuts down. As designed, this is because Dyson wanted to have no loss of suction when the battery performance gets lower. This is why you have a short run time.
I have this and a Dyson DC14 ....both rock. You will not find a better vacum. I give it 4 stars only because they cost so much.

the first time i used this, i did run out the battery. haven't since. i run around the house sucking up stuff with this puppy. i especially love it for sucking crumbs off of my ceramic top stove. or picking up the pile of cruft left after swiffing. if you have issues with cleaning crumbs off of counters (i usually end up dumping most on the floor), or getting your sweeping/swiffing piles up from the floor (I can't get crap into a dustpan for anything), you will love this product.
what i don't like is the brush attachment. it is too hard to push it back to reveal the clean edge attachment. so i just leave it open.
