Good Points

Stylish and very good at cleaning carpets when serviced properly.


Bad Points

Poor suction at the wand. Some components feel fragile and the wand did break when my Dyson fell over.


General Comments

Other reviewers have spoken of a loss of suction and suggested checking the narrow airways for blockages. These checks are worth doing but the main problem is that even the genuine Dyson belt hardens and elongates by up to 50% over time. This means that although the suction may be optimum, the rotating brush does not have enough torque to pick up hair etc. I replaced the belt and the improvement was amazing.

    My Dyson fell over and the wand snapped in the first week or two of ownership; most frustrating! Dyson should further research this fault and invest in wand protection technology. Great review!
