“This is my third Dyson Vacuum in over 20 years. They really last. This one is amazing. Only just got it this week so no idea if it will have the same longevity, but it’s fantastic.”

Critical Feedback:
“The vacuum head leaves weird lines in carpet and doesn’t suck evenly after 6 weeks. The cord is in the absolute worst position. It just tangles. The vacuum weighs a ton. I’m 6’3” and 200lbs and I find moving it around to be a cumbersome task.”
