We had a Dyson upright for about 5 years. There was no apparent loss of section until it went to the great Dyson yard in the sky after the motor burnt itself out. |

I must say that I love my Dyson! I've had one now since the first one came out, and at the moment I have a DC15 with the roller ball, and it is brilliant, a bit heavy, but as we live in a bungalow that isn't a problem. My daughter swears by her Miele! I guess it's all what takes your fancy!!! |

I have the very small Dyson city DC26, and find it absolutely great for my small flat. Yes, you need to empty it regularly and wash the filters, but that's no problem for me. |

I have a Dyson Animal (upright) - yes it's heavy, but it gets up the dog's fur and all the dried mud which flakes off him, it's easy to empty and clean, and is pretty robust. Going to get a hand-held to keep upstairs as I hate lugging it up and down our steep staircase! |

The only reason we ended up with the Dyson...was because parents were going to give it to my daughter who had just acquired her first home. |

We have 2 Dysons in England, one 5 years old the other new. No problems at all except that it is essential to empty them regularly all the suction drops off. |

I bought a Vax (the hoover before this one) I took it to the charity shop the day after I bought it, it was totally useless, no suction whatsoever. |

Have just had a look at Tesco Direct. My eye was caught by a bagless cylinder Tesco own label for £39.95 with 1400w motor. Adverse comments were lead too short and attachments poor quality. |

The first Dyson I had was a cylinder and I loved it after that I moved on to the upright and like AnnCardiff I find very heavy and wouldn't buy another. |

I do not mind a heavy hoover, just want one that is powerful enough to pick up the rubbish OH and animals seem to constantly bring in. |

I've had two of them - found they were far to heavy to lug around the house - now have an Oreck which is light and efficient |
