The Dyson Upright Bagless Vacuum Cleaner is one of the best vacuums available... if you're to believe marketing. But why do that, when you can read what other, actual users, think of the Dyson DC 25 Upright Bagless Vacuum , here?
It uses Root Cyclone technology which ensures powerful and continuous suction, for maximum cleaning efficiency.
It also features a 1/5 gallon dust bin, has a lifetime warranted HEPA filter, and is asthma friendly.
The wand and hose have a 17 feet reach, for cleaning stairs and other tall items, while the vacuum remains upright and stable.
The dust removing mechanism is easy to use, as a single press of the remote button at the top of the vacuum makes all the dust empty from the bottom.
To top it all off, the Dyson Upright Bagless Vacuum Cleaner also comes with a very good warranty.
Users are extremely pleased with how well the Dyson Upright Bagless Vacuum Cleaner takes care of their house, leaving every carpet and floor as clean as can be.
Build Quality
Dyson is well known for making some of the best and most durable vacuum around, and this reputation is what has drawn users into purchasing this cleaner. They are happy to report that they are not dissapointed, and most units are running just as well as they were on the first day, after several years of use.
Weight
This is one of the things that bothers most users, but this model seems to have solved the weight problem. Users happily report that the vacuum is now easier to push and turns easily. Due to its reduced weight, elder people have started using it, with excellent results.
Noise and Cleaning Power
The noise the vacuum makes is quite loud, but most users have gotten used to it, and say it is perfectly understandable once you see how powerful the vacuum really is. There have been reports of the vacuum lifting entire carpets or pillows, collecting every ounce of dust and dirt from them. Some users are worried that carpet fiber may be damaged, but there is nothing that can be done about it, at the moment.
Conclusion
The Dyson Upright Bagless Vacuum Cleaner offers the same reduced weight and excellent turning capabilities of the previous model, but users really like the more powerful motor and the improved suction power it provides. The large price is certainly worth it for those in the market for a powerful, light and easy to maneuver vacuum.

We purchased this Dyson right after Christmas when our old Dyson finally just wouldn't suck after 6 years. My husband did the research and wanted one good for households with dogs and cats as there is a lot of fur we have to vacuum. Right out of the box, it looked so delicate.
Pros:
1. Love the ball that allows me to go anywhere.
Cons:
1. Power cord is too short to get very far. I keep having to stop unplug and move it to a new outlet just to vacuum one room.
2. Canister doesn't hold very much. I am often emptying it 4-5 times just to keep the suction up.
3. The handle for the extension noose comes loose and is useless as you can't reach very far. The directions don't say anything about the handle coming out...but it never stays in.
4. The release catch for the canister to remove it from the base is also the release for emptying the canister. Creates real messes at time.
5. If the beater becomes tangled even just a little bit, it will stop beating and you have to throughly clean it before it will spin again.
6. It can't pick up little things like dog food. The dog food is too heavy for the suction. Making this about useless to use when the food is scattered across the tile.
7. No height setting for tile/carpet. Only one setting...there you go.
8. Power switch has to be held down for several seconds to turn off and on. No quick push it to get going.
9. No attachments. We received no attachments to help with cleaning the baseboards.
10. Once a month you have to clean 2 filters. Just wasting my time when nothing else works as expected. If it worked, then I wouldn't mind this step.
This is an extremely over priced product. It doesn't have the power to take care of animals like it suggests. Very disappointed since our last Dyson was wonderful. I think I am going to see if I can fix the old old one and junk or sell this one. Not worth any amount to keep.
This is the worst of the dysons

Love all Dyson products, have Animal and handheld and use them all the time. Bought the "ball" for upstairs ( 2 people ) after using twice red stand broke off, referred by Dyson to my local repair shop, they have seen many of these "balls" with same problem....with this problem by the way you must support the vacuum as it will not stand up ( heavy) returned fixed after 8 weeks... broke again upon use...returned to store with receipt bought a DC 14 for upstairs...much happier
stay away.
Quality vs Quantity

I purchased this vacuum with a little apprehension. I have learned that high price does not equal high quality. Reading past reviews, I saw that people were disappointed, however I do believe that they were expecting more due to brand association and price. I have used a Kirby Legend II, the Hoover Platinum and a in home central vacuum system. Compared the the Kirby it is much lighter and easier to use, the Kirby also has to have regular belt and bag changes. The Kirby is a very powerful machine, but for it's size and weight you would expect that. Overall the Kirby was/is much more expensive but had quality you could feel. The Hover Platinum is the closest vacuum that could compare to the Dyson. The brush head and canister are larger, and the cord is longer, these points alone made me almost purchase that instead. It also has an indicator light that lets you know if the carpet in clean or dirty, a novelty item, but fun to watch. What sold me on the Dyson was the ball and the ease of maneuvering and pivoting. The house vacuum is just convenient and will spoil you. However it is very expensive and is usually installed while the house is being built. The best thing about the house vacuum is the option of having suction levers along the baseboards around the house where you please. The kitchen is a great place to have one, if there is a small spill, just flip the lever, grab a broom and sweep it in the wall. No vacuum can compare in my opinion. With that said, the Dyson is a less expensive option that is comparable in terms of convenience. I also own a Roomba, which is a lifesaver, especially when it comes to an easy daily vacuuming all around the house and leaving the deep vacuuming to once a week. If you own a pet or keep or windows open often, get a Roomba. Overall I would recommend this vacuum. It is light, effortless, convenient and good looking too. My only complaint is the plastic used, I would have thought it would have been thicker and denser, but that is what makes it so light, however I would have rather had denser plastic than a lighter vacuum.
Great item

I love the Dyson vacuum cleaner. It came right on time, and was easy to put together. I would recommend this vacuum cleaner to anybody. Save money and use this vacuum cleaner instead of the purple one. It is the exact same thing, but doesn't have the stair cleaning attachment. Save $100 by just going with this vacuum.
GREAT ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN, BUT TERRIBLE OVERPRICED VACUUM!

The Dyson products are truly overpriced-period. I am a typcial believer in, "you get what you pay for" for the most part. However, this is an exception. Dyson DC 25 is not a good vacuum at all. It is not simple to maneveur like you might think. There is absolutely no height adjustment on this vacuum. So what happens, is that it tends to ride too lightly on some carpets and sucks the your regular floor rugs up to where you cant roll the vacuum on it. The rear wheels are so tiny that if you try to roll the vacuum or move it without having the the handle down, it is a pain in the rear.
Dyson is suppose to be some great designer/engineer...huh? Then why is the cord placement in the middle/bottom of the handle. This means that you constantly step on the cord or you have to continually hold it. The cord also is on the shorter side. The bin is very small. You have to wash out the hepa filters. The only way to possibly clean the under the edge of you lower cabinet cupboards in your kitchen is to head directly at them perpendicular, which is a pain in the ass-period. The brush unit is very small and doesn't extend out to either side, which makes it impossible to clean under the toe-kick of the cupboards. Horrible design. He spent too much time on the never losing suction part, and not enough on the everyday important details.
I actually own the Bissell Healthy Home. Which I thought was too heavy. It is a bit heavier, but a much better built vacuum, and cleans far better than the over-priced Dyson
My advice, is don't buy it, you will probably return it. I really wanted to like this vacuum too.
