A very
powerful vacuum cleaner
I
recently purchased the Dyson DC21 canister vacuum cleaner, and at first I was a
little apprehensive of purchasing it (mainly due to the very high price of the
item), but after using the vacuum my apprehensions are now alleviated. This
vacuum can suck the dirt and dust out of a carpet as if it was powered by the
gravitational force of a black hole, yet it doesn't require significant force
by the user to utilize the vacuum. I couldn't believe how much dirt and dust
this vacuum removed from a "recently cleaned" carpet in a new house
we moved into, it was as if the carpet was never really cleaned before.
Also, the product lives up to it claim of cleaning the air while you vacuum, as
I'd always have allergic reactions after using my old Dirt Devil upright
vacuum. Also, I would have thought the vacuum for as powerful as it advertised
it was going to be, it was going to be as loud as a jet engine; however, it was
much less noisy than my old Dirt Devil upright (which you could hear clearly
outside of the house whenever it was used). Overall, the Dyson DC21 is a very
good vacuum cleaner but it's not inexpensive; however, just like the old saying
goes, you'll get exactly what you pay for.

Awesome!
"This vacuum has major suction! It also handles very
nicely around corners, it not heavy and cumbersome and is not overly loud. I
would recommend this to anyone looking for high quality. It's a little pricey,
but worth every penny!"

Totally Worth the $
"I had not intended on spending this much $ on a
vacuum but we received gift cards for our wedding and I decided to put them to
good use... and I am REALLY glad that I did. This vacuum is by far the best
vacuum I have ever had. With a cat and a dog, this vacuum keeps my house clean
top to bottom. It's easy to use, has great suction, and has taken things out of
my carpet after I had just vacuumed with my old vacuum, which I previously
thought did a good job. I recommend this vacuum to everyone!"

Amazing Performance
"Dyson Stowaway DC21 Vacuum is just fabulous even if
a little over my budget. Quickly picks up all the dust, hair & dirt from my
carpets. I truly rely on it to give me that clean environment I crave for."

I love Dyson
"I didn't want to spend more than $300.00 on a
vacuum, because my house is all carpet, I need a great vacuum. I did a lot of
research and ended up buying and returning 5 vacuums!! Tried the dirt devil,
Bissell, 2 hoovers and the infinity pet. Maybe I was incredibly unlucky - but
each of the above had a major problem; from suction to trying to clean the
units. I finally said the heck with the $300.00 budget, and bought the Dyson
Canister. All I have to say is: If you want a clean house - get a Dyson! It
picked up stuff all the others left behind - and believe me, I thought my
carpets were super clean! I love my Dyson."

Good Purchase
"Had for over two years now. Use it to vacuum my
carpet in condo at least once a week. WOW works great, you will see all that it
picks up, via clear collection canister. Easy to clean and quite easy to store
away. The entire unit quite heavy if you have to lift and carry, so if you have
to do so, START doing arm curls. Very good product."

WOW
"The Dyson DC21 is the first product I've Bought in
a long time that hasn't left me thinking why did I spend my money on this. It
may be alot of money for a vacuum but it's worth every penny. The root cyclone
technology is amazing, it keeps all the dust and everything right in the dust
bin nothing seems to even reach the filter. The only downfall is the large wand
and tools that don't lock in well. But when equipped with the motorized brush
head, look out dust bunnies. This thing pulled out dust from carpets just
vacuumed with a shark pursuit bagless upright. Good job Mr. Dyson thanks for an
EXCELLENT product"
