I was so confused about which model to buy - but after completing Dyson’s online questionnaire and watching numerous videos describing the differences between models settled on this one - and I’m so glad I did! I was concerned the trigger might be fatiguing - but it hasn’t been (if anything, I accidentally activate it every time I pick up or handle the vacuum). The fluffy head (with its illuminating light) is by far my favorite - but boy does it make my hardwood floors look filthy (and for good reason)! I’m wowed by the ability of this unit to suck up dust that I didn’t know was there, and after a few times vacuuming my floors look the best they have in years.
The regular head works great on carpet too (but that isn’t what I bought it for) - and has replaced my Kirby as my go-to for ease of use and effectiveness. Would recommend.
Nice improvement over older Dyson, but more needed

I bought this recently and am pleased with how it performs. I dinged it for a couple of reasons. One is that it is quite a bit heavier than the older model Dyson that I still have and use, though much less so now. The second reason is that, even though the docking station is now fixed, i.e. not hinged, Dyson could have easily designed it with more docking connections to accommodate all the accessories rather than having to have them lay about somewhere else.
Christmas gift. ROCKS. Love the “light”. A little get used to but cordless Rocks big time. PS Hoping Mr. Dyson works on a FAU! 1 in every house/building Worldwide
Early on in my time with the Dyson but so far very impressed. So far my only wish for improvement is in the wall mount/charging stand. I wish it was a bit sturdier and had more tool holder locations.
The vacuum is powerful and easy to use. I wouldn't image there were so much dirt inside my carpet until I used the vacuum. And being battery powered makes it so easy to maneuver around house.
However, the connection between the dustbin and the vacuum arm was not very tight. It wobble's a bit, which I absolute hate as an engineer. Plus, everything is made of plastic, so I'm constantly worried I may break it if I use too much force. I hope Dyson can fix this in the future.
