Great vacuum for pet hair

The Dyson V6 is a terrific vacuum for carpets
and picking up pet hair.
This gets into all corners and under furniture,
The 2 speeds are great at switching back and forth.

Older model, amazing product.

Extremely lightweight with a pretty decent battery life. I can vacuum my entire house twice before having to recharge the battery. Having two suction modes helps lots between using on hardwood & carpet. Especially with kids & pets. Easy to empty canister. My favorite thing is it has no bag & has no dust!

It's Ok!

I purchased a Dyson Slim Stick because I had heard that it was great! Although it is good for cleaning dust, pet hair and small debris, it has trouble picking up any of the larger items that may find their way to your floor, such as Cheerios, plastic, or cat food. For the price I paid for the item, I expected it to clean up just about everything! I was not impressed. Now, I do still use the Dyson, but I always have to go around and pick up the things that it doesn't pick up. I'd almost rather have one of those Roombas.. at least it does it for you.

Always ready so convenient!

This past summer I acquired a cockatiel and although they are cute and noisy in a good way, my goodness they have to be one of the messiest birds. We house him in this amazing pagoda birdcage with the bottom flared to grab the mess of seed and feathers but it still seems to get all over the floor as it floats around. That’s why I needed a heavy duty vacuum to keep up with this mess. My main concern with buying a vacuum was that it had to be convenient. We have central vacuum in the house But it is so Not convenient. In fact I may go so far as to say it’s the opposite of convenient. Of course I was also looking for cordless, lightweight and powerful. The Dyson Stick meets all the requirements. There are several packages you can purchase with the Dyson V6, we ordered the Bonus kit.
I have to say I do love this vacuum and here’s why: It’s definitely a grab and go tool. It’s the perfect tool for cleaning up all the hair that hits the floor after blow drying. I mostly keep the crevice tool on the vacuum but changing it to another tool is very quick and easy. It’s wonderful for cleaning the carpeted steps. So lightweight (less than 5 lbs) you can use one hand. The soft duster tool which is part of the Bonus kit really helps with dusting the furniture and picks up the fine white dust that just seems to move around the furniture with other dusting methods I’ve tried. As far as vacuuming hard wood floors and carpets it works very well. I’m sure it’s going to be a cinch to vacuum out the car this summer.
Emptying the canister is fairly easy. Sometimes the hair gets wrapped inside the canister but I just use a plastic spoon handle or long stick to remove it. The brush heads have a lock button that you just turn with a coin and your brush come right out. I usually empty it and clean it once it needs to be charged. They recommend that you rinse out the filter once a month. It takes about a day for the filter to dry before you can use it again. Might be a good idea to order a spare so you can switch them out easily. The downside to the Dyson V6 is that the charge only last 20 minutes. There is also a “Max” button you can push for better suction but I don’t find that I need to use it too often. 20 minutes of vacuuming is not so bad but it’s more of a blip because it doesn’t warn you that it’s low. It just stops. The charge time is 3 hours. I think the plastic seems a bit flimsy but I am not sure it’s built that way so they can make it a lighter vacuum. This Dyson comes with a 2 year warranty. Though it’s on the expensive side as fair as cordless vacs go I’m extremely happy with this purchase.

amazing!

Absolutely love this vacuum. Hardly ever use our standard one. Great suction and great on stairs as well as cleaning the car. So light with a ton of power. Recommended for sure!

Excellent stick vac!

Very lightweight yet intense sucking power. I love how it lays flat and you can vacuum right under couches etc. The attachments that come with it are a nice bonus feature. The wall mount is superior to other stock vacs that just sit in a stand. My only complaint is you have to press the power button the entire time you're vacuuming, an actual on/off switch would have been nice...

This is a great vacuum. I love that it is so small and light and can be stored and charged at the same time. It has amazing sucking power, and very easy to clean out the canister! It is worth every penny!

This is the best vacuum I have ever owned. I was hesitant on purchasing one for years just because of the price, but it is worth every penny. I love that it is light weight and cordless - it makes moving around quick and easy. The suction is great and it picks up much more dirt than my old vacuum ever did. My only complaint is that the battery life is a bit short. It will usually last about half an hour, so knowing this, I will move as fast as I can (not having a cord makes this very easy!!) and I know approximately how much of my house I can vacuum on one charge. It works great on tile, hardwood and carpet. I like using this vacuum, so now my house is much cleaner.
