Dyson DC17 - The best vacuum .. but for a price!

byshoplmart Dec 4, 2004
103 Helpfuls 104 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 17 Comments
Pros Reliable, relatively quiet, Animal tool, It's a Dyson.
Cons Price not for everyone, Color scheme better left for a 1965 Barracuda.
Recommended it? Yes

In the past I have had way too many vacuum cleaners- a vacuum hoarder if you will. It's not that I collect vacuum cleaners per say, but I have always felt that if one breaks I should have at least another five or six to fall back on. Realizing that this is a very unhealthy way to deal with the fear... Read full review »

The Dyson DC 17 Animal: Amazing Results After The First Use.

bySteelfan May 4, 2008
89 Helpfuls 90 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 7 Comments
Pros Powerful Suction, Bagless, Helps People With Allergies, Onboard Attachments and Suction...
Cons Heavy, Pricey but worth it.
Recommended it? Yes

After many years of denying that any vacuum could pick up all of the hair and dirt in our carpets, we finally decided to spend the money on a Dyson. Our carpets are used very hard and the combination of cat hair, dirt and dust from our pellet and coal stoves made any vacuum groan with fear. We... Read full review »

Doesn't Lose Suction... Even After You're Married

bycriteeker Jan 18, 2007

Pros really works better than any vacuum out there, many accessories, futuristic design, quiet
Cons no retractable cord, too many trips outside to empty the canister, no bag for accessories
Recommended it? Yes

Imagine using a product that didn't get the job done and getting so frustrated that you were determined to design a new technology and design for a very effective cyclone vacuum. Imagine taking your idea to the major vacuum manufacturers and them turning their collective backs on you. James Dyson... Read full review »

Pros Good suction, good tools, good design excellent brush. All around works well.
Cons Trouble traversing the "lip" between uneven floor surfaces. Can't lie down...
Recommended it? Yes

So far I'm happy with my Dyson DC-17 Animal even though $500 does feel like a lot to pay. It's got powerful suction, a good design, versatile tools, and a robust brush that really gets the grit and hair out of my carpets.

Let's get the bad stuff out of the way. It's a little awkward and... Read full review »

Pros Excellent Suction, Easy to Use
Cons Frequency of Canister Emptying, Worthless customer service.
Recommended it? Yes

Amazing! If I had to sum it up in a single word, that would be my choice word.

I had looked at a Kirby, but after weighing the cost with the pushiness and rudeness of the salesperson, I decided not to make that $1800 purchase.

Friends recommended Dyson. Websites recommended... Read full review »

Dear prospective DYSON PURCHASER,

My name is Jessie. As a self-professed perfectionist, consumer advocate, and stay at home Mommy to a 7 month old little boy who is crawling and rolling about, I consider myself qualified to say this review will be just about as objective as you'll find. I... Read full review »

Impressed by a vacuum cleaner? Now this is a first.

Pros Design, suction, hidden telescoping hose, bottom-emptying collection bin, lifetime HEPA...
Cons Too pricey for some folks. Hose is not as flexible as I would like.
Recommended it? Yes

Let me start off by stating that I know a thing or two about vacuuming.

For two years when I was in high school, I worked as a maintenance guy for a health/racquetball club, and my main duty, obviously, was to keep the place clean. This involved vacuuming.

Miles and miles of... Read full review »

Dyson Animal DC17

Background
We moved from a house with a built in Nutone Central Vac System.  My wife didn't want another Central Vac primarily because you have to drag out a 25 foot hose to do any vacuum job, big or little.  In looking for a new vacuum and from all the hype, we jumped... Read full review »

Cons price, doesn't go under beds well
Recommended it? Yes

I have been through many vacuums in my lifetime. It seems I was buying a new vacuum every year or two. I have been looking at the Dyson DC17 Animal Bagless Upright Cyclonic Vacuum for many years but the price tag always got me and I would go with a cheaper model. Two years I finally broke down and...

Pros Excellent filtration, no bags/belts/filters to buy, 5 year warranty, and well designed.
Cons Hose can pull vacuum along, canister may have to be cleaned occasionally.
Recommended it? Yes

I've had this vacuum for almost a year now and thought I'd share my findings, both good and bad.  


Overall, I like the design and features.  It has auto height so you don't have to guess what level your carpet is, and a button to shut off the brush bar for bare floors, etc.  Also, the... Read full review »
