Dyson Cyclone V10 Motorhead Lightweight Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner

I bought this to replace my Dyson Animal corded vacuum. Although I’ve been happy with their corded vacuum, I wanted something lighter and easier to get out for quick cleans. To me it makes vacuuming less of a chore. I can do a quick vacuum of one floor in my house in about 10 minutes, and I find myself vacuuming more often because of that. I have hardwood, a few area rugs on hardwood, and carpeted floors, and it works great on all 3. We have a cat, and I find the power head does a better job of removing pet hair off the area rugs and carpet than my bigger corded Dyson. I run my unit almost always on the mid power level setting, and have no complaints of its power. And have yet to run out of battery when doing most of my 1,800 sq/ft house. I have changed my mindset about vacuuming, and use it for more often quick cleanings, which keeps the battery life manageable.What I love: The lightness; using it with one hand; no worry of cords; and the maneuverability. Great cleaning power, especially with pet hair. Rotating brush is powerful and easy to remove if you need to detangle hair from it.Negatives that I’ve learned to live with: Bin fills quickly if you have loose carpet fibers and pet hair; you have be careful not to pull the ON trigger when emptying the bin; and the bin release mechanism is sticky and not engineered as well as the rest of the machine.Bottom line is I would buy this vacuum again if I was in the market for another cordless vacuum.

My daughter has been urging me to get this for several years, but because of price, I resisted. She has the Dyson 7, and I finally used hers and loved how efficient and convenient it was. So I bit the proverbial bullet and ordered the V10 because of its upgraded features. Best decision EVER! I was dubious about its power to clean carpets, but it aced my powerful upright that I've had and liked for years. And it cleans my hardwood and tile floors like a dream, without having to change a setting for different flooring surfaces. Seamless. I like the fact that it's so lightweight: I broke my wrist 5 weeks ago, and I could not have managed a heavier vacuum with only one hand. And the cordless feature is the best. I did not know what I was missing. The only thing I'm having to adjust to is the charge time. It does have an indicator to alert me to when the battery is running low, but I'm not used to checking it like I should. I've had it for only a couple of months ( a Christmas present to myself) and could kick myself for not buying it sooner!

Replaced 8 year old Dyson D35. Cost the same as the 8 year old! Technology has come a long way in 8 years & the new vac really shows it. Great suction & unstoppable beater bar. Canister is a little small & the extension tube needs to be removed to empty, but the release mechanism has improved in 8 years also. It's still a great upgrade from our old one & Momma doesn't have to pull out the big vac.I hate vacs. They suck! They're supposed to, but overall they just plain suck!! And that pretty much can be attributed to the cord. It's always in the way & the thing tips over or gets stuck or... So the lack of a cord, makes it suck less, but still suck more! HA! Worth not having to deal with a cord!Bought a new beater bar for the old D35 & took apart the beater bar belt drive to remove hair wrapped around the inner spindle (YouTube video) & it now is the upstairs vac. Needs a new battery & it'll be as good as new. Still not the suction of the new V10, though.But then again, I'm just a FOG & what do I know?

Fantastic! I have two grankids here everyday and lots of little messes as well as a dog - our plug-in Dyson has been wonderful, but i put off dragging it out and plugging it in and getting the right attachment. This V10 is perfect !!!!! easily swivels to go right under the couch, fits up nicely to the baseboards for close clean. The battery lasted longer than some reviews give, but I don't use the Max setting. Swept our stairs and the bottom floor of our house - emptied the canister three times - so i know it was picking up. Plenty of power left. The wall storage installed easily and is perfect for storage. I like the auto off because it saves power. When I found I was gripping too hard and sweeping too fast, my thumb knuckle did rub a bit, but i loosened my grip, slowed down (trusted the battery), and even changed hands back and forth. We ordered the power head too, and it is so manuverable that there was no furniture or obstacle I could not clean around or under. Just perfect.
