Dyson - V6 Absolute Bagless Cordless Stick Vacuum - Nickel/Red

I am a Disabled Vet in a wheelchair, I have several Vacuums from IRobot's to a Red Devil. but this has all I am looking for in a vacuum, light weight and small enough to carry around to get where the problem is without frightening the lil dogs and cat. The tools give the power to take on big jobs when I need too!! So far it has been a privilege to limber it up and get the work done (and to think, "No chords to be confined too!!" The best money I have spent, thank-you BestBuy for being there for what I needed!

Like it very much light weight makes it quick and easy to use, But the Big Down Fall of the Stick is the battery which is not removable and does not last very long before it needs to be charged should have a removable and should come with 2 battery's.

Absolutely love the vacuum. Has a lot of power very happy with this product.

This was a Mother’s Day gift which happens to be tomorrow. I was very disappointed that the box arrived damaged. But I was angry when I realized it was shipped from Best Buy already damaged. How do I know? Because there is Best Buy printed inspection tape all over the damaged area of the box. Unacceptable! And even more angry when customer service said they could not replace it at this time, my only choice was to return. Ridiculous.

It is a Dyson! I have used an old one of these before and they still pick up stuff that many new vacuums don't... even when you are doing a price point comparison. I have been eyeballing the canister version for a while, however, I just moved to the SF Bay Area into a ity-bity living space (miss you Robin Williams!!!). The Dyson V6 Absolute Cordless... absolutely no disappointments with its function/capabilities vs the canister or uprights versions. The direct drive head doesn't have the same spring articulated mechanism as the uprights... but that is ok... it will suck it up anyways. Not quite as allergy friendly as the uprights either. When I use it my air cleaner kicks on to a faster speed because it detects the increased dust in the air. The Dyson Animal I used while I had the same air cleaner didn't seem to set it off. Not quite as balanced as described with any of the powered/turbine heads attached. However, with the brush and crevice tools attached, it is much closer to being balanced. The brushed motorhead works well on carpet and hard floors. Be careful on runners and loose rugs/etc as, mentioned previously, this thing will suck anything up including them. The "fluffy" motorhead works great on hard floors, I however don't use it as much since I have fluffy animals which makes the "fluffy" head something else to get pet hair out of. The reason for the sans one star is because all of the accessories it comes with doesn't neatly store onto the storage bracket it comes with. This neat and tidy looking thing, sadly leaves me wanting when it comes to putting it away after cleaning my house. The other reason is the canister... pet hair and dust/dirt gets sucks in places that are hard to clean out and will start to make this look like it is out of some 80s scifi movie. Quick pros and cons... Pros: It sucks... up everything! (even w/o pushing the "MAX" button) Lightweight... and balanced enough to not be too awkward to use overhead Battery lasts long enough to get through a 700sq ft apartment with long haired animals Less bulky/awkward than the uprights, I can get under furniture where the Uprights can't Did I mention it sucks up everything? Cons: Around the same price as its corded, slightly more capable siblings Storage caddy doesn't store everything... or even half of everything it comes with Canister is hard to clean (and a tad small) Power cord is shorter than desired Not as allergy friendly (but really not that bad either) My last two cents on the matter... if you don't have storage space because you live in tight quarters, this is awesome (aside from the clutter of accessories). If you have the room to store an upright but don't want the bulk of the ball/canister for tighter places to clean, get the canister. If allergens are a huge concern, they have allergy friendly versions but I think their upright or canister versions would probably do you just fine.

We previously had a Shark Rotator. It's big, bulky, and sometimes smelled a bit funky. (even after washing the filters) couldn't get under many obstacles, but did the job. This seemed like the perfect solution for our (~1200 sq ft) house, and it really is. We can literally get every inch under our king bed, and the battery (although unimpressive) will last to get the entire house. Attachments are perfect, (especially for hardwoods!) and this seems to out perform the shark. 4 stars because of the horrible idea to not have a removable battery, the short battery life, (although we haven't really had a problem with it to be honest) and the small waste container. Although these issues exist on this vaccum, I have 0 buyers remorse and am very happy with it. If you're considering buying one, I say go for it. Check the return policy for you, and if it doesn't fit your needs, return it. Worth a shot, 100%.

This vacuum performs exactly as every review presents it... Great suction, portability, and cleaning ability. Battery life isn't awesome, but we've been getting a little better run time than expected. The high suction setting really brings usage time down, but in normal mode, we can get two to three big rooms done at a time. Dust bin fills up really fast, but I suppose that means it's working well... Haven't had anything break on it, so good durability. The filter does seem to collect a lot of dust and hair and it is pretty tough to clean it as other reviewers have stated, but it's not hard to stick something in there to pull the coated dust off... All in all, I feel it's worth the high price...

If I had a choice, I would have gone with a less expensive brand. However, my wife insisted on buying a Dyson. It is a solid product. Don't get me wrong. But considering the price point, again I would have lived a few hundred dollars richer with a less shiny vacuum. Well, I guess if my wife is willing to not question my notebook choices then I shouldn't question her vacuum choices. Also, to give her credit, she has taken over vacuuming duties since we got this one. Ok, enough ranting. Pros: The hand held design provides convenience. The battery powered design provides portability. The large selection of attachments makes it easy to use the vacuum in pretty much any situation. The design stands out., Cons: Price point is high. The dust bin is small. Runs for about 15-20 minutes on a charge. It is still a bit heavy.
