"I melted three Dyson pet vacs ... Hair melts the plastic eventually"
"if ANYTHING other than fur gets picked up, (twig, leaf, pine needle, moss), the Dyson immediately stops sucking. ... Then I have to take apart the hoses and manually clean them out. ... So, on average, for every whole house cleaning, I have two manual unclogging sessions. ... The air path in the Animal and Multi-Floor models have three 60 ° turns which is where the clogs occur."
"you will get a ton of hair in the roller and will burn out the motor or at least clog the roller and it will break and stop spinning."
