I find it hard to release the main motor piece to the long tube. I have arthritis and can't pull both sections at the same time. It fills easily and I have to empty many times. It is, however, lightweight and maneuvers easily. I totally LOVE that it's cordless. The sound is not bad at all.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I was not convinced this vacuum was going to do the job until I vacuumed the first room, looked at the filter and noticed it was full. I am now very excited to get to my other rooms, cars etc. Thank you!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! There's nothing like seeing that filter fill up to prove a machine's worth. We’re glad you’re part of the Dyson family and hope you enjoy cleaning every corner. If you ever need support or advice, you know where to find us.
I bought this new and used it one time before it stopped working. Had to return.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We replaced an expensive well known brand with the Dyson v9 motorbar. It is so lightweight it feels like a toy, but a toy it is not !!! We have had the v9 for a few weeks now and it keeps pulling up hair and dirt that we didn’t know was embedded into the carpets. What is amazing is that with all the hair that had been picked up by the vacuum, not a single strand is wrapped around the brush bar. The engineering is incredible right down to the packaging it came in. The technology is astounding as it alerts you and displays a tutorial on how to clean and replace the secondary filter.

I bought one first and had to return it within 2 months. One of the red buttons stopped operating. The replacement is great so far.

Your satisfaction matters, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience. Thank you again for your feedback.
The Dyson is great, but whoever designed it with a trigger that has to be depressed the whole time you're using it made a serious mistake. What's wrong with an on/off switch? I can't do my whole house with it because my trigger finger won't last that long.

Not a bad vacuum. But a few issues I would have liked to know about before buying. Very small dust bin. Filter requires frequent washing and 24 hrs to dry before smother vacuum session. Instructions are for illiterates. I am not so I had a lot of problems understanding them. Battery life was ok. Easy to use.
