Great improvement in maneuverability March 19, 2010
Robertkeywest (KeyWest, FL United States)
Love this vac. would have given it five stars but the wand is still to heavy and awkward to use. Dyson also should go universal in its' attachments, I have several from previous vacs that I can't use without shelling out more $ to buy adaptors.
 No losss in suction, but there is not much to begin with. March 18, 2010
JVtec (California)
Key Findings:
The suction power is just a little bit better than a dustbuster that plugs into a car lighter.
The brush will stop working as soon as it encounters an obstacle, be it a Cheerio, a peanut, or a paper clip.
The attachment is difficult to work with.
The cord is bit shorter than other uprights I had.
No height adjustment settings.
If you have pets, then definitely avoid this vacuum cleaner.
Exchanged the DC25 Animal for the DC24 March 14, 2010
Jenny M.
I orginally purchased the DC25 Animal and was not that impressed with it. It cleaned well, but was somewhat heavy & not entirely easy to maneuver. But, my main gripe was how hard the attachments were to use, being that the hose is so stiff. So, I returned it, and got the DC24, and I am so much happier with it. It is lightweight and moves around on a dime. The suction may be slightly less than the DC25, but it still gets a LOT of gunk out of the carpets & off the hardwoods. The ease of moving it around the house & up and down the stairs is worth it to me. The ease of use of the attachments still leaves a lot to be desired, as the hose on this model is even shorter. I love to use the vacuum for dusting, so to dust something tall, I just lift the vacuum up by the handle with one hand and maneuver the hose with my other hand. It is so lightweight that this is a pretty easy workaround. To clean stairs, you can just use the entire machine since it is small & light, rather than needing to use the hose. I hope this helps anyone trying to decide between the two models.
A $400.00 disappointment March 6, 2010
Karen A. Gebhardt
I have had this vacuum all of three hours and am packing it up to take it back. I bought it primarily because I thought it would do a decent job on pet hair, which is the bane of my vacuuming existence. The salesman assured me it had the power of the larger Dysons. I had some reservations as I could see that most of the parts were plastic which I could foresee might easily break. Still, I bought it. It started out with what I thought was decent suction and I managed to vacuum almost all of my living room before I noticed the small canister was at the max line so went to empty it. I put the canister back on, started it up again and went into the kitchen. I have ceramic tile and to my dismay it left crumbs and particulates almost intact. Then I noticed it would not pick up pet hair/lint on the carpet. I believe it is jammed somehow. Add to that the roller does not always turn when you press the button. Sometimes it does, mostly it does not. I should have known better to buy this as when the salesman tried to demonstrate the floor model the roller would not spin either. I wanted to like this vacuum. It is very maneuverable and extremely lightweight. I could carry it upstairs easily. The small head fit into places that my old vacuum would not. It would have been extremely convenient. Alas, this does not perform as well as I would expect a $60. vacuum to perform. I am almost afraid to take a chance on the larger "Animal" version.
 Truly amazing little vacuum! February 22, 2010
techiegirl (new york, ny usa)
I used to dread vacuuming, mostly because I'd have to drag out the old monstrous Dirt Devil Breeze. It was heavy and it only sucked up what i thought it would. When the DDB died, my husband and I figured it would be worthwhile to invest in a good vacuum cleaner - we wanted to turn a new leaf (clean regularly) and get something easy to use and is effective. The DC24 completely impressed and amazed me. It picked up the white dust in between the cracks of our wood floor that our cheap Ikea carpet had left before we threw it out a month earlier. The parts are super easy to clean (2 reusable filters, bristles removable for cleaning), it's so light, looks great, and sucks up even fine powder. so, so worth it. I use it twice a week, only because I want to see what it would pick up that I couldn't see with my bare eyes.
