DC19 Animal

Rainbow (water based) is a tank. My parents got it in 1980’s and my sister took it when my parents passed away. Still works perfectly. Had to replace the motor once back in 1990. We have a Dyson DC9 canister from 2004 and it’s still going. I had to glue together a crack that formed in the handle.

i love my dyson animal. i have the canister, not the upright.

Not cordless, but I've had my Dyson Animal Canister for 15 years and it still works amazing. I'm desperate to go to corded but this thing has been too good... Curious to know if their cordless are the same.

Shout out to that 15+ year old dyson! I just replaced the hose on mine this year. Gosh, it was expensive to buy in 2009, but I've definitely got my money's worth out of it.

I have a 2009 dyson animal. Thing still works like a champ. 💪 I vacuum twice a week. My 3 are field golden retreiver/field irish setter mix....so less floof their their show breed counterparts. It would be nice to have a robot vacuum, but i dont have the kind of disposable income needed for a good quality robot vac 💲💲💲 that could handle their hair to justify frivolous spending when my current vac and manual labor still get the job done.

Find the vacuum that you like best (Miele, Shark, etc) and search Marketplace. I found an old Dyson in the trash, cleaned off the rollers and it worked for years - I gave it away last year so it’s probably still working. LOL Then found a Dyson canister (pull-along type) on marketplace for $100 and it’s worked fine for the year that I’ve had it.
