Not impressed!

For the money I spent, I expected so much more. This vacuum is difficult to push and maneuver. It has a lot of suction. However, overall, I don’t see a difference between other vacuums rated for pets. I’m hoping it grows on me, but I’m not holding out much hope.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from DysonBy Dyson Customer Support, October 19, 2022
Hey Kim, this is Kelly with Dyson. We're sorry to hear that you're not having a five-star experience with your Ball Animal 3 Extra. Your machine features an Anti-tangle Motorbar™ cleaner head, with suction control. This will allow you to control the three levels of suction, right on the cleanerhead, to suit whichever floor covering you are cleaning. Some homes with thicker or more plush pile carpeting, area rugs or even thicker carpet paddings, may find the machine harder to push due to the more powerful suction. We do suggest checking with your flooring manufacturer for their cleaning instructions - some may suggest against high suction machines or even those with powerful spinning brush bars.
As a reminder, we do have a 30-day return period for all purchases made directly through us, as we always want to ensure our owners are satisfied with their purchase. If you decide you'd like to explore a return and you're within that timeframe, feel free to contact us at askdysonUS@dyson.com for assistance with that.
Best wishes,
Kelly

Not for older folks.

Excellent modifications to previous models, which I've owned. But, the superb suction is a detriment for older folks who will have trouble moving the vacuum over rugs. The suction, even at the proper setting, makes the vacuum very hard to push and pull. If it were not for this, I would have given the machine 5 stars.

Cleans well

I just put my Dyson Animal 3 together and used it. I have plush carpet and it seemed a little easier to push than my Dyson Multi Floor. I had just vacuumed with the Multi Floor Vacuum and the Animal 3 picked up additional dog hair. The carpet height adjustment tab seems to be helpful on the thicker carpet. The bristles on the brush bar didn’t get carpet fuzz stuck in them like on the Dyson Multi Floor model. I have soft new carpet, so that is good.
My one disappointment is the the length of the cleaning head is only 11 inches whereas on my Dyson Multi Floor it is over 13 inches. Therefore, I have to make more passes to clean. Also, the vacuum leaves a track in the carpet which is down the center of the path. It is about an inch wide track, the same distance as between the 2 balls on the base. I am not sure if I will keep the vacuum for those reasons.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very nice vacuum!

Great vacuum for pet and people hair. The suction is great and leaves my house way cleaner than my precious vacuum. So worth the extra money. I have used mine on flooring, high carpet and area rugs and it does amazing! Highly recommended if you have pets in the home and need to control their hair and dirt.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good Suction, Good Extender Wand vs. Wobbly / Hot
on October 16, 2022
Posted by: prairiefolks

PROS -- We had a roughly 15 year old Dyson that we maintained but wanted more suction. We got that now. Hard floor performance is excellent, and our berber-style carpet is handled almost as well (I often don't use the carpet setting because it's too hard to push -- it's a real). The extender wand is much easier to use than the older model. The main brush does reduce long hair tangles. Awesome.
CONS -- This is a HOT vacuum. I sweat anyway when doing the whole house in swoop, but after doing two room standing near this thing I feel like I've been standing next to a jet engine. I'm shocked the motor doesn't burn up in flame. Also, the vacuum is a bit wobbly and I mist the stable platform I could drag around by the hose on the previous model we had. Further, the dust bin is much smaller and the plastic much thinner -- plastic just gives out over time, but I think it will be quicker on this vacuum.
I'd like to compare a Shark model of the same caliber next to this one, but I'm not made of money. We flipped a coin and went with Dyson again. Time will tell.
I would recommend this to a friend!
