Chucky Mama Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 It is awesome!!!!! I bought the V6 Fluffy version and it is so good. It has more suction than my Sebo cylinder and I would highly recommend it. They are stupidly expensive but I got £160 off by buying it from the Dyson outlet on eBay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Had to look this up. Very nice. I thought it might be the one cats ride round on while it hoovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Have one of the earlier ones - its good I use it instead of a brush and dustpan basically in the kitchen and its grand for a quick run round and very light. Your one looks very nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I will have to have a look, I am a fan of the Dyson and have been wondering about these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I have been pondering one of these for a while. I have a Sebo, which I love, but that cord really gets in the way. I also have a Roomba (the one cats sit on!), which is great for keeping the dog hair down to a bare minimum, but I do like using a 'proper' hoover. I like the way these can be used as a hand held too. And they looked very impressive in a test on a TV show I saw recently. £160 off is awesome!

WitchHazel Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I have the V6 and it is amazing. So light and easy, t's easier than using a broom and a dustpan and brush so I use it for all the small hoovering jobs as well as the full hoovering. I love it's edge-to-edge suction. I have a Roomba too, and I use that upstairs. It's great at cat hair collecting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Now that is what I need - a roomba! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Roombas are great - I love mine. But you still need a vacuum for the stairs & skirting board tops! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Bungalow and long handled microfibre thing for the skirting boards!!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Decided to invest in a cordless Dyson too, & it has just arrived Its VERY pretty - a lovely metallic blue colour with pink on it too. Can't wait to try it out. One question for those in the know. As the battery wears down does it get slower & slower, then stop, or does it just stop suddenly? TBH I can't see myself doing 20 mins of vacuming anyhow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Mine just stops suddenly. You only get 20 mins on low power. If you use it on high power (which I normally do) the time is much less. The theory is that, because you have to keep the button pressed, you only have it working while its vacuuming. In my case, I keep my finger depressed while I'm moving around. The time is usually enough for me to do the vacuuming I need to do, I don't tend to vac the whole house at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 Hi Chucky, just wondering how you are getting on with this? Is it any good for stairs? Ax Love it! It is very handy. I wish the battery lasted a bit longer. It is great for stairs. I am always shocked at how much it picks up, I must have a very dirty house! It is so convenient to use. I have not used my cylinder cleaner since I bought it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must say I totally agree - I love my new Dyson & it is so handy that it turns hand held too My much loved Sebo has gone to live with the daughter in her new flat.

Cinnamon Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I got the 'Fluffy' as it is good for hard floors. I got it from John Lewis, as it had £50 off, plus I get a discount there, so it made sense. And the guarantee is longer. I liked the price of them at the Ebay outlet, but they were sold out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 The Fluffy has an extra head for hard floors. It comes with a smaller head for stairs too. It actually comes with a head for carpet, hard floor, small one for stairs, narrow thing for edges and a smaller on that I use for the seats in the car.
