Product Description
The Dyson DC24 Animal is the latest addition in Dyson's line of compact HEPA vacuum cleaners. Though lightweight and compact, this versatile upright vacuum retains all of the features that has made Dyson so popular. The Ball adds maneuverability while the washable Lifetime HEPA filter and clear dust bin mean you won't need to spend money on replacing filters or bags. Dyson's Root Cyclone technology ensures that this vacuum will never lose suction, and a 5 year warranty provides peace of mind should anything ever go wrong. As a Dyson Animal vacuum, the DC24 comes standard with a mini Turbine Head attachment that is ideal for removing pet hair from carpeted steps and upholstery. Powerful, yet weighing less than 12 lbs., the DC24 Animal is a smaller model that is perfect for those with limited space or for current Dyson owners who need an additional Dyson for another part of their home. And as with all Dyson upright and canister vacuum cleaners, the DC24 Animal is certified "Asthma Friendly" by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America.

The Dyson sphere: science fiction comes to life,
By

This review is from: Dyson DC24 Animal Bagless Vacuum (Kitchen)
I live in a basement studio with two dogs and a muddy yard, and this is the perfect vacuum cleaner for me. How many times has this floor really needed a quick vacuuming, but I just didn't feel like hauling my gigantic machine out and then manhandling it around the narrow spaces? Then spending half an hour dismantling it every time it sucked up a stray cable of yarn from the carpet? Now I find myself pulling out the Dyson just to get the dust bunnies or caked mud out of one corner!
It weighs about nine pounds, it fits in all my narrow spaces without having to move the furniture, the sphere turns on a dime, and it can suck the rust off of an abandoned Studebaker. The attachments click on simply and securely. The roller has a sensor that stops it from turning the moment it detects it slowing down because something is caught in the brush, so it doesn't wind around fifty times. The bucket is easy to clean. It's even light for carrying up stairs, and the stairway attachment is so compact that it does a good job. The Dyson technology isn't really the Dyson Sphere of sci-fi stories, an artificial sphere millions of miles in diameter built around a sun to capture every kilowatt-hour of its energy in order to power an advanced civilization. It's named after James Dyson, the Briton who invented it. He went inside a sawmill and discovered that the walls were not covered with sawdust because it had a giant fan assembly that created a cyclone effect, spinning the dust down into a collector. He immediately thought of building a vacuum cleaner with the same cyclone technology, since the accumulation of dust on the sides of a brand new bag saps half the power of a conventional vacuum within a few minutes after turning it on for the first time. Potential demerits: It doesn't have a height adjustment so it may not be the best for thick carpeting. It's got a narrow footprint so if you have a large area it may require more passes. The power cord is fairly short, but then electrical cords are very heavy and that would just add to the weight. It has a bucket instead of a bag so you have to wash it out when you empty it. That doesn't happen very often in my tiny space but again, the small bucket is not meant for a big house. The larger version of this has all those features you'd want in a big house, but it weighs more and doesn't go into narrow spaces. And when I bought mine, the larger one was actually cheaper. Other companies have ripped off the idea since it's almost too simple to patent effectively. I have no idea how their products compare. I love my Dyson because it is PURPLE!

I thought I ordered the Dyson Ball DC25 Animal.......,

This review is from: Dyson DC24 Animal Bagless Vacuum (Kitchen)
Well I have the first Dyson Animal and it is a large vacuum. When I took this one out of the box, to my surprise, it was really small! I purchased this one on accident instead of the full sized DC25. Although it is small it has the same suction power as the bigger model DC 25 (my mom owns the DC 25 and I used it while visiting her). The only downfall for me is the smaller canister size as I will have to empty it more often. I have an RV and this vacuum will be the perfect size to bring along on a trip! It works fabulous, it's small and light weight, and it's purple....you can't help but love it! I am disabled and the lightweight factor is a plus along with the ease of moving it around due to the ball. I highly recommend this vacuum!

Exactly what I'd Expect,

This review is from: Dyson DC24 Animal Bagless Vacuum (Kitchen)
I bought this vacuum after my Sears canister vacuum finally quit in me. I have mostly hardwood floors with some carpeting and a very large dog who loves to leave hair all over the house. Regular vacuuming is a must! This vacuum is light, surprisingly small, easy to maneuver on the ball so it gets into weird places without having to pick it up, has a great suction, and, best of all, there's no bag. I simply empty it out every time I use it, which is an absolute snap! Dyson certainly lives up to its legendary name with this vacuum!
