Dyson Cyclone V10

Do not purchase one of these dyson stick vacuums unless you are happy to have ongoing replacement parts. Low battery Life. Expensive battery replacement and cracked and broken plastic. Cleaning them out is a whole new level of hardship. Its a challenge to clean out the base or any part of it. Needs to have easier access. I bought a forty nine dollar one and I've been using it now for nearly a year, no broken parts and does the same job. Parts come apart for cleaning easily. Fancy wasting six or more hundred dollars on something so poor in quality.

Pros: 1. mobility. 2. suction (max setting). 3rd bagless.
Cons: 1. 20 minute endurance then 40 minute wait to recharge. 2. hearing protection required for max suction setting. 3. dust flies everwhere when you empty it. 4. you have to get your hand dirty to pull out the last 10% of waste. 5. too heavy and bulky for stairs / in cars / sofas. 6. overheats then shutsdown after 5 minutes on max, except for the last ever time when it didn't and fried the $200 battery. 7. $1000 for 2 years of mediocrity.

The V10 we have is about 4 years old. From the beginning it seems as if it was built to look flash rather than be robust. First issue was the cleaner "running on" after the trigger was released. Then recently the battery failed to register (anything). I was about to order another, then a Youtube search advised me to jiggle the battery after unscrewing the retaining screw. Back to working, however the trigger issue worsened and a search revealed that the trigger itself has a weak point which breaks internally. After ordering a replacement part o...

I have been using my Dyson V10 for 2.5 years now (so I am a bit late in reviewing it, I agree). Really happy with it. The reason for this review is recently it developed some snag but I had extended warranty so sent it to Dyson service centre & it has returned all good. The service was great (except some delay due to Australia Post). When we had to live without our Dyson for a few days, it suddenly made us realise how much an integral part it has become of the daily routine. You definitely get your money's worth just that you need to follow the do's & don'ts for its usage (e.g. cleaning the filter every 6-8 weeks depending on the usage & dust vacuumed up). Ok the only down side is the noise it makes while in operation.

Spent nearly 1k for Dyson v10 absolute.
This is the worst vacuum cleaner.
Lots of dusks go into a hole in the body and always have to use finger to take dusts out.
Dusts stuck very easily and after 3 years, it just gives me headache. Sometimes it doesn’t vacuum at all. I was a fun of Dyson products but I will never buy their vacuum cleaner again.
Wastes $$$. Regrettable purchase.

I am extremely disappointed with my purchase. I bought the v10 animal about 3/4 years ago. It has decided not to turn off when I release the button. I contacted Dyson and I have been told that I need to purchase a new main body for $300. I think this is outrageous for this to happen to what is supposed to be a premium product. You expect more from the brand.

I bought this thinking that I would be getting an excellent product for the price that I paid but not the case. After only a few years of use the filter light comes on all the time (even after I've cleaned the head and filter) and the battery life has shorten dramatically. I can't vacuum beyond 10minutes even though I'm not using the booster mode and the vacuum has been charged overnight. Don't waste your money. My other friends have also complained about the poor battery life. Very disappointed given the amount of money spent!

useless clogs up every 2 minutes I spend more time unblocking than cleaning and it isnt very good at that either tried it to do my car gave uputh Wales

Reasonably practical cleaner for tiled floors.
I've not figured out how to get the attachments, other than the power head, to work effectively so not finding it that useful for car cleaning. Have tried the other attachments on full boost and performance less than ideal to complete the job.
Battery life is good. Filter easy wash & clean. Swivel head with the ball joint handy for awkward areas.
Dust & pet hair easy pickup. Not useful for slightly larger particles that come in from our loose surface path leading to tiled area.

This product is simple to use, has 5 attachments and 2 speeds which make cleaning a breeze. A little heavy for me to clean fans and conices but I just do a little at a time. Excellent value for money.

I can go from tile to carpet without changing the head on this product. Accessories are excellent with a range to suit every surface "nook and cranny". This vacuum has not missed a beat and is so easy to use. The stick is excellent for my ageing back. I am now thinking of upgrading to the iRobot

Bought Dyson V10, first stick vaccume cleaner & it’s great. Easy to use, empty & store. Picks up my hair & pet hair with ease. Easy on my back. & easy to use 1 handed after recent wrist surgery

I bought v8 first and had to change it to v10 because I was not satisfied with its suction power. V10 is also not that great. I still find some mess after the vacuum.

It's good for carpet, not for wooden or titled floors

I love this vacuum. I vacuumed with my Dyson floor vacuum first and then with the V10, it was incredible how much cat fur it still picked up! I was pretty grossed out to be honest, to think I lived in this atmosphere for this long "thinking" it was clean is nuts!

I have carpet and floor tiles. It works great on both. I have a ragdoll cat who sheds alot, the convenience to operate quickly is a bonus. Emptying is simple, straight into the bin.
