Rating: - Great Suction; Poor Service
This vacuum rocks for suction power. It takes our dog's black hair off of our light carpets with ease. It is heavy and I cannot get under my sofa, but I have made adjustments.
While I think it is a good vaccum, trying to get warranty service for it is awful. I either had to drive it 90 minutes from my house or send it back to Dyson. I opted for the latter. They had it three weeks and offered to provide updates as the repairs went along. However, the SEVEN times I called, they had no idea what was going on with it because their "systems were down." I guess face to face interaction doesn't ... Read More
Rating: - There's vacuuming, and then there's vacuuming w/ Dyson!
When our old venerable Kirby vacuum bit the dust (after so many years of good service) and my wife suggested Dyson, at first I was real reluctant because I could easily bought 2 vacuum cleaners for 1 Dyson. But after reading a bunch of reviews online about Dyson, I thought to give it a chance. Thus far, it has proven to be a great bet. I actually enjoy vacuuming now because I feel like I actually clean our carpet w/ the DC17. In my opinion our investment of $319 for this DC17 is well-worth it.
Rating: - Impressive
It works, and it works well- very well. My wife is a stickler for cleaning our carpets. Our dog, a short-hair, does her best to contribute to the cause. Our previous vacuum was a Eureka Sanitaire. I've seen my wife vacuum the living daylights out of the carpeting with it only to follow up with a canister unit until she was satisfied. So when this Dyson arrived I felt that there wouldn't be much left for it to pull out. In less than a minute the Dyson was full of dog hair.
Wow.
There's a lot of plastic in the construction, but it appears to be "well done plastic."

Rating: - Own a pet? Than this is it!!!!
My wife and I thought our old vacuum was fairly decent. We own an American Eskimo ,which if your not familiar with the breed, sheds a ton with it's long hair. After opening our new Dyson DC 17 Animal we've come not to expect too much of any vacuum since owning our dog. We were happily proven wrong! This Dyson made our old vacuum look like an ancient artifact picking up the dog hair from the thick carpet plus the old dust that our old vacuum never had picked up. This was great!! I have a dust allergy and I've even noticed a decrease in my reaction because of the dust it has pulled from the carpet. BUY ... Read More
Rating: - Dyson's Animal Rocks!
I have had the Dyson Animal DC17 for about a year now. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats. I was so fed up with hair everywhere. I was giving serious thought to shaving them all bald, and got a Dyson as a last resort.
Today, the animals are intact, the house is clean, and I am one happy woman. I love this machine.
I love how the hose nozzle pops out without having to attach anything so I can get all the edges and corners without missing a beat, and the hose itself is so long, I can do the whole staircase without dragging the vacumn up the steps behind me.
