Dyson DC23 Motorhead – I love it my brother bought his around and once I seen what came out of my carpets I was astounded, I have two Golden Retrievers so you can imagine the hair. My dogs sit on our couches as well and it removes the hair off the couches, which before I could not get off. I had owned an Electrolux which was good but no where near as good as this. However, I don't think once you take the motorhead off the suction is that good. But I cannot complain I vaccuum nearly every 2-3 days and it is amazing what comes off my floors even the tiles. It is easy to empty. Like I said it is heavy and bit bulky. I wanted the grooming attachments but it didn't fit this model. My rugs have come up brand new. Suction is really good, gets dog hair off couches. It is heavy, could have a longer cord and its not good to do stairs, the powerhead its too big and the machine bulky. Also this model you cannot attached the grooming attachments.
