My Dyson DC25 Animal has just arrived and within minutes I had it put together and had given it a trial on the sitting room rug. I was amazed. I had forgotten what the real colour of the rug is, and a good once over almost filled the dirt container! At least a cup of sand came out of the carpet and at least a whole dog moult, even though I had regularly vacuumed with my old machine. And I haven't even used the animal mini turbine head yet! I am delighted.

 

The Dyson is so easy to use and the power is impressive. The machine has a heavier feel than I expected but that is probably necessary for it to sit down hard on the carpet, and it has a very solid feel. I have yet to try how it goes on the stairs but the wand is easy to use and it is great to have the extra tools on the machine in their little places - no more hunting from room to room to see where I last left the crevice tool! The dirt container doesn't seem to be very big but emptying it is a breeze, one click to release it from the machine and one click to deposit the dirt in bin or bag without getting your hands dirty - and no more having to stock up with bags. All in all it's a cracking machine and I think I'm going to be very happy with it.

 

 

After reading the reviews and also a verbal I bought this Hoover. We have two dogs and also a cat, so decided to pay the extra for the animal one. We I am really pleased with it. The cushion where the cat sleeps was hoovered with the turbo attachment and it picked up all the hair, and I'm telling you there was a lot!! We a have a Burgundy rug, not the best color with light colored animals, but it cleans it up a treat, not a trace of animal fur anywhere. It is easy to use, and fairly light, overall very pleased with my purchase.

 

 

what a machine, just a pleasure to use, all parts click together with ease, cleans so well, i urge any one in any doubt to buy one, the first time you use it its like getting a great B J!!!!

 

 

The freedom the ball gives you is amazing, it makes hoovering around corners so much easier than a conventional Vacuum.

Its also quite a powerful Vacuum and the pickup (at the front) is very powerful, leaving grooves in the carpets showing where it has been. This show that its definitely getting into the carpet and pulling up lots of dirt.

The extension handle is also good, its extends to a long length and makes reaching up to high areas easy. This model also comes with the mini turbine head for pets which is brilliant for cleaning our dogs bed, picks up lots of hairs and you can immediately see the difference.
Overall this is a very good vacuum cleaner, my only gripe is the quite small dust bin which requires empting quite often.

 

 

fantastic suction as always...this is my fourth dyson. we give it welly in this household!! Only slight gripe is i dont like how you have to pull the tube upwards and out.Its tricky. Much prefered the last model where you clicked switch and it comes away to use tube. def recommend though!

 

 

I was suprised that the machine was smaller than my orginal Dyson. The way you empty the machine is really neat and clean. However I find using the tools is not very easy to set up. On a report I read it said there was no where to store the tools but there is so may be this is a updated machine overall it is as good as my previous machine that I had for over 10 years

 

 

 dont normally take the time to write product reviews, but this product is so amazing, and if your like me and are quite reluctant to spend this much money on a hoover, i am here to convince you it is worth every penny!!!

I have a dog and it picks up every bit of dog hair, with minimal effort. The roller ball feature is fantastic and considering it is an upright hoover, its not too heavy. The wand reaches right up to the top of the stairs and has great suction. overall, you will not be disappointed if you invest in this product. (Oh and amazon were very efficiant and delivery only took a week, bearing in mind when i ordered it it was out of stock).

 

 

We got a dog nearly two years ago now and have thought abpout getting a dyson animal, but the price put me off. Our dog, a black cocker spaniel sheds so much hair, its unreal and my old hover didn't pick it up easily, making hoovering really hard work and taking a rediculous amount of time. I found the dyson animal dc25 cheapest on amazon. I am really pleased with it, it arrived next day and picks up hair no problem. no effort required. I would agree the stair thingie isn't brilliant, but its certainly a massive improvement on my old vacumn and I don't know of anything better. If you need a machine for animal hair, this is it.
