"I live in a 2700 square foot cookie-cutter tract house. First floor is laminate with an office that has carpet. Then there’s the stairs which leads to 5 carpeted bedrooms, two tile bathrooms, a laundry room, and a walk-in carpeted closet. I can get all of that done one charge."

"The tech in the V10 for long hair is AMAZING. No more having to physically cut hair and cat fur off of the brush every month."
"I have a cat who sheds like crazy and it gets it all up. ... My steps were looking grey from Emma rolling down them as she chased her cat toys. I tried the Dyson V10 because it was on sale and it changed my life. ... I run it on max power especially over my Oriental rug which seems to collect most of the cat hair."
"does a good enough job with our cats shedding everywhere."

"being cordless and effective for what I need. ... For some the tradeoff for cordless, no bags, good suction, etal means we vacuum more than we otherwise would. ... I never would have thought I'd defend a near $1,000 cordless vacuum but I got one as a gift and will never buy anything different now."
"I love the dyson stick vacuum for quick pickups."

"the amount of dog hair / ETC it can get out of the carpet vs the Dyson Cordless cannot be compared."
"animal and people hair can twist around the beater bar, so watch that and keep it clean. Take the whole thing out of the head. Get the hair hidden in the gaskets."

"Mine failed under warranty and failed again ... it’s just hanging in my closet as it barely works ... For the price, absolutely useless."
"It didn't last nearly as long as the price tag suggested it should."
"The out of warranty repair cost was 75% of what a new one would cost so I chucked it."

"it would constantly die while vacuuming even on medium power"
"The Dyson battery was internal so you can't swap out a battery if it dies on you."
"I’ve had one for my V8 and it’s lasted longer than the oem now, plus it is a lather capacity battery too."

Merk je verschil tussen die twee? Ik heb zelf de V10 (animal) en heb daar een nieuwe accu ingezet en zo’n borstel met licht erin. Twijfelde of ik dit moest doen of ook naar de v15 overstappen. Vandaar dat ik benieuwd ben naar jouw ervaring. Btw, wat is ocd?
r/zuinig • Goedkope koordloze (electrische) stofzuiger tips ->I got the Dyson animal v10 for my second stick vacuum, it gets my wife's hair without jamming the beater bar so it should handle the pet fur that it's designed for. They will eventually die, but I'll get another dyson stick in 5+ years when that happens, for my 2200 sq ft home
r/CleaningTips • Are Dyson vacuums worth it? ->Damn, I love you for this. Nerd out my friend! I just bought a Dyson V10 Animal to replace my Dyson V7 that was gifted to me refurbished 3-4 years ago. The tech in the V10 for long hair is AMAZING. No more having to physically cut hair and cat fur off of the brush every month. I tried to fix the V7: replaced the filters and the battery. But it was literally just pushing around debris on the floor. The V10 had a $100 rebate off and I broke, using some Christmas gift money to buy it. I regret nothing, but will take better maintenance care of this one to keep it for life.
r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I had a Dyson v10 animal and used it twice a day for about 7 years then the trigger got stuck, I fixed it. Then the battery died, bought a new one. Then the trigger got stuck again and a friend did it for me… and it stopped working. lol Anyway, would love the Dyson v15 detect but too expensive when there are so many other options. Over 6 months I was given 3 sharks. ALL OF THEM HORRIBLE! lol Spit litter out and all over the place, some wasn’t picked up at all. On Amazon, was between Smoture, Unicell, rendow, and Jellypig. Took time to search the reviews about comparisons to a Dyson vs wanting a Dyson but not affording it and trying whichever one. Your review pushed me over! Thanks!!! And I got it for $132!! You still liking it? What made you choose that one?
r/VacuumCleaners • Cheap Cordless Vacuum Cleaner recommendations ->I had a Dyson v10 animal from Costco and used it twice a day for well, every day! lol carpet, stairs, tile and a 1700 square foot house with two cats. It gave out after many moves (a friend broke I think) and I was given three sharks. All horrible. Spit litter back OUT. lol Got a cheap Amazon jellypig/ way better than the shark, not even close to Dyson. But it was only $132 from $229. I hear smoture and dsorpa or fieety are good but I bet they’re the same. Will try one more and then if it’s not good, getting a refurbed v11 or v12. My friend’s v8 Dyson is still going strong at a decade. :)
r/CleaningTips • Are Dyson vacuums really worth it? V11 is now under $400 and I'm tempted ->I have this vacuum. I got it cheaper than this several years ago from Costco- I think around Christmas. If you have a pet with coarse hair, do not get this. I have a corgi and the way this vacuum is made, everything it sucks up is forced through an awkward rectangle that is less than an inch wide. My corgis fur clogs it up almost immediately and I have to pry his fur out of it with my fingers/butter knives/chopsticks/whatever I can angrily find. I spend way more time unclogging the thing than actually using it. I did not mount mine and therefore do not leave it charging 24/7, I only charge it when it dies, but two of my friends had the same vacuums and had them mounted and the batteries died within a year or two. Dyson told one of them that they aren’t meant to be charging all the time and it affects how long the battery will last.
r/VacuumCleaners • Thoughts on the Dyson V10 Animal+ for $400? ->Yo. I like my Dyson wireless vacuum. But, I only like the V10 animal. We got the newer model and it’s shit. They fucked it all up. I returned it. The v10 (without the worthless graphic/dust screen display) has a switch for 3 settings and on Medium it is perfect. The new ones just don’t do “medium” as strong. Here’s the kicker, I get mine on EBay refurbished from the Dyson store for like $200. I’m telling you, it’s the best loop hole for an excellent vacuum. To be clear, if you look for a v10, it needs to be without the display screen. The ones with the screen fucked up the suction settings.
r/BuyItForLife • Vacuum that won't conk out on me after 3 years ->Breaking the bank is subjective but my Dyson v10 animal lives up to the name. Does the whole house in a full charge (might need emptying more than once) but it’s so small and light and comes with great attachments such as the hard floor attachment with a green laser to show up all the dust and hairs. I believe you can pick up a refurbished one (mine came with a brand new battery) for in the £2-300 range. Just saw the end of your post. Mate just save a bit extra and get a Dyson. Bite whatever bit of pride you have against them and just get the superior product for a cleaner house.
r/AskUK • What cordless vacuum cleaners are actually worth buying, but don’t break the bank? ->Mine runs much longer and stronger than it did when new.

r/BuyItForLife • These are the most recommended vacuum cleaners on Reddit (r/VacuumCleaners VS others) as of Jan 2025 ->I bought the Dyson V10 Animal back in 2019. It really helps with all the cat hair. Pricey but works great and is still going strong 6 years later.
r/CatAdvice • Can someone recommend me some a good vacuum to buy that can actually handle my 3 cats hair?! ->Yeah they do have great support and warranty is 2 years so I appreciate that about Dyson. I do really love Dyson stick vacuums. I also have a v10 pet and it has been issue free for 2 years. It doesn't have the detect feature.
