  • Powerful and Reliable Cleaning Companion
Style: Ball Animal 3
I’ve been using the Dyson vacuum, and it’s been an excellent addition to my cleaning routine! So ordered this one for my mom. The suction power is outstanding, effortlessly picking up dirt, dust, and pet hair from carpets and hard floors. The cord provides consistent power throughout, which is great for longer cleaning sessions. The design is sleek and easy to maneuver, and the attachments make it versatile for different cleaning needs. While it’s a bit of an investment, the performance and durability make it worth every penny. Highly recommend for deep, thorough cleaning! ... show more

  • 4 & 3/4 stars, I do really really like this vacuum
Style: Ball Animal 3
Let me just start by saying I poured over a ton of reviews of different Dyson models before buying, and on finally deciding on this one (Animal 3), was *hoping* the negative reviews weren’t huge red flags. I’ll get specific with my skepticism in this review as it would’ve helped me when shopping. The listing I purchased from was for Animal 2, Animal 3, and Animal 3 Extra models, and comparing basically ALL reviews for the 3 models, I chose Animal 3 and I’m glad I did. First: the bad reviews stating this vacuum won’t go on thick carpet ALMOST had me convinced not to buy it. Even Dysons site has multiple bad reviews stating the same, more bad than good on their own website! I’m happy to report I have zero issue with this with my shaggy, thick, plush carpets. If it’s on either of the carpet settings it moves just fine. Adjust your vacuum and go. I’d had a ball Dyson in the past, and I didn’t love it. This was another hesitation. The swivel/ball mechanism on my previous one was loose and flowy, but this meant the thing would curve around just when I was trying to push it straight. This Animal 3 does not do that. It’s a bit tighter, it stays straight but is easy to curve when you want. My previous Dyson also toppled over anytime I was tugging at the hose and this one, probably because it’s a little heavier, stays up even when the hose is really extended and being jostled around. PROS: excellent suction, it moves well. I really like how it gets all the way to the edge when you run the side of the vacuum head along the baseboard, not leaving a 1/2 inch gap like my last vacuum. So far I’m really stoked about how the rotating brush clears hair in this Animal 3-we only have one shorthair cat, but I have long hair and so does my daughter, and between the two of us shedding, I’ve done my fair share of cutting the tons of hair that was wrapped around the vacuum beater bar with a utility knife and yanking it out with previous vacuums! So far I have vacuumed my entire house a few times with this Dyson and not a single hair wrapped around the bar in the vacuum head. To my extreme surprise, I LOVE the little stair tool!! Vacuuming carpeted stairs has been the bane of my existence for years (that’s only a slight exaggeration) and this little tool that looks like it should be meant for hard floors does a killer job picking up all the dirt and bits, while fluffing the carpet nicely, including the carpeted edge and the little vertical part under each step where it fits in just right (the wand even swivels at the end of the hose so you can change your angle with ease while vacuuming your steps). Finally, I’m not lifting a heavy upright vacuum in a ridiculous way and hurting my back to make the stairs look nice!! So far I’m very pleased with this vacuum especially considering my hesitation about buying another Dyson after not really liking my old one. If things change, I will definitely update this review. Not many cons to this vacuum…but… CONS: it’s kinda heavy, but not much different than my last vacuum (a Hoover windtunnel) or my previous Dyson. The weight is not a huge issue for me. The plastic parts that seem very breakable are disappointing in such a pricy vacuum. The hooks to wrap the cord look like they could snap, and worse, the thin plastic mechanism that extends down the tank and opens the lower flap to empty it seems very delicate and if that breaks, it could be a real PITA. For several hundred dollars I would hope things would be more durable, but I was aware of this complaint going in—and this is why I give it just below 5 stars. When I have the hose wand out and am putting it back in, it’s a little sticky at the very last part of sliding it back into place at the top of the vacuum. Sometimes it really does NOT want to slide into place, and I have to use a little force. A couple of times it went right in easily. I’m unsure if this is just an issue with my unit or an issue with other Animal 3’s. I don’t like how there’s not a release to tilt the vacuum, and that you must just *crack* the sucker down to tilt it and start vacuuming. However this on Animal 3, that is easier to do and not nearly as harsh of a crack as the Dyson I had before. All in all, I was extremely skeptical buying this vacuum and I’m quite thrilled at how much I like using it and how well it works. Especially vacuuming my stairs, it is really a game changer! ... show more

  • Wow! Suction is impressive
Style: Ball Animal 3
After reading reviwe after review I finally chose this one. My last dyson lasted 10 years and still works, just not so good. This is heavier forsure. But...it takes it all out of the carpets. Suction is incredible. Have 2 cats and long hair myself. Nothing on the roller! Is loud.. Is heavier...but it works great. Easy to empty and it isn't getting caught up in the canister like my other dyson. May be too much for frail folk... but overall... for the price and maker I'm pretty happy with it. ... show more

  • Dyson vs. Shark
Style: Ball Animal 3 Extra
My two vacuums of twenty years went so I purchased another Dyson and a Shark. I will say the Dyson is alittle more powerful and cleans just a bit better, but overall the both do a great job. I like the front light on the Shark and the versility of being able to remove the dust bucket, it makes stairs alot easier. The Shark is easier to move around and more stable. The detangler on both is awesome. For the money I prefer the Shark, but both are great vacuums and clean really good ... show more

  • Was hoping this would be great
Style: Ball Animal 3
I was really looking forward to this vacuum being the last one we would buy, and it would be powerful and easy to use. Sadly, it only met one of our requirements - it did have very strong suction, almost as good as my small shop vac. The rest of the experience was anything from just sad, to outright painful. The initial assembly was much more difficult than it should have been. The parts have a very tight fit, making them difficult to mate, and when they do mate it is with a definite snap, as things suddenly go together. When this happened on the top of the handle I was not expecting such a sudden fitting and got pinched pretty good. Lesson here is wear gloves or be sure to keep hands and fingers out the the joint area. Second issue came when the pictograms showed the vacuum in the wrong orientation to install the motor head and brush assembly. Finally got that figured out and together, interestingly not as good a fit as the other pieces. The big disappointment came when I gave it a test run. We have hardwood floors (for the most part) and two dogs, so there is plenty of dog hair to test with. First run across the floor and I discovered that while the vacuum sucks well, it also has an air discharge on the right side, so anything not EXACTLY in front will be blown off to the side, which meant a bunch of our hairballs ended up blown under the sofa! Also learned that this vacuum moves with great difficulty and does not steer well at all. I thought perhaps this had something to do with the hardwood floors, so tried it out on an area rug. Nope, still will not steer and it is VERY difficult to move around. Tried all 3 floor settings on the front and it got a little better, but it was still very hard for me to move around, and there was no way the wife would ever be able to use it. And it still would not easily steer, you had to force it around. So I went from being somewhat disappointed in the assembly process to actually hating this thing in something like 2 minutes. Needless to say it was returned today. Summary is it is very expensive, very had to move and use, and it really can suck up the dirt if you can manage it. ... show more
