This vacuum has the best section capacity and cleans multiple surfaces very quickly without having to go over the same spot multiple time. However it is very heavy and feels like a workout when vacuuming big areas.
i like it, it really cleans my carpet and floors good. It will stay on the wheels and moving it around when off if you slanted more than usual and the plastic will last if you don't abused it and handle it correctly.
This is my third Dyson and it is a very good vacuum. I absolutely found the original Dyson Animal was my favorite! Then I purchased the 2 it was too powerful for me but this one is very good! Reading other reviews makes me think people may not be aware they can adjust the power at the bottom has 3 levels and that makes huge difference on ease of use! I would very much recommended this vacuum!
I bought this because I needed a vacuum with the option to turn off the beater bar and adjust the height for my wool area rug. I love on the hard flooring it doesn’t blow hairs away as it approaches. Sucks them right up. The regular carpeting in the bedroom got way cleaner than I was expecting after one use with this. The only reason it isn’t 5 stars is due to the maneuverability. The suction against the floor (both carpet and hard) is so strong that it surprisingly difficult to push around.
I had one of the very first Dyson Ball that came out. I LOVED that vacuum. Unfortunately, pieces broke off and I needed to replace it. The Dyson Ball 3 is a huge transition. It isn’t as solid. I feel as if I’m going to break it every time I use it. I’m trying to get used to it but it will take a while.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello,
Thank you for your review. This is Miella from Dyson. We're sorry to hear of your concern with your Ball Animal 3 upright machine!
All Dyson machines, including the Ball Animal 3, are engineered with ABS plastic, which is the same material in police riot shields. They all also go through a VERY rigorous testing phase to ensure they can endure even more than the average bump and drop.
We'd value the opportunity to learn more about your experience with your Dyson as we'd like to help ensure you are having a 5-star experience. Please feel free to reach out to us at askdysonUS@dyson.com, and we will be in touch.
We have owned a Dyson before and had it for years. The only reason we gave this model 4 stars is because the locking mechanism for it to stay upright, does not stay in place right away. You think it’s locked and turn away but it falls to the ground. This is very annoying and hopefully it won’t cause any long term damage… we have to check that it’s locked before moving away. We never had this problem with the old model. Hope they fix this issue.
The Dotson ball we bought works great. The only think I don’t like is how easily it pops out of the upright position. When I move it across the floor it will often pop off the transport wheel position.
