Strong Carpet Cleaning, weak bare floor cleaning
The Dyson DC41 does an excellent job cleaning carpets and sucking up small dirt particles. For larger dirt particles, the adjustable head only pushes the dirt and does not allow the head to cover the particles to be vacumed. I often have to lift the vacum up to cover the dirt On bare floors, the head has more trouble sucking up larger dirt particles that will not fit under adjustable head.
The hose is tight and often tips over the vacuum when stretching it There is no handle for the hose so you are holding the base of the hose which makes it difficult to manuever and if you are not careful, will bend and colapse the hose...The bare floor attachment is poorly designed, I purchased the bare floor attachment and found that it colapses easiliy making it impossible to use.. Maybe I am doing somehting wrong but I never had problems with my Kenmore bare floor attachments.
The dirt chamber is easy to empty but fills up quickly,. Its difficult to clearn out all the dirt from the chamber, even after dissassembly, there are nooks that are unreachable but hold a huge amount of dirt. Just emptying the dirt catcher basket is not suffcient to restore sunction. You need to bank the edge of the wind tunnel vortex against the side of the garbage can to loosen and release the dirt trapped in the wind tunnel vortext chamber that is not accessible..
Overall the vacuum works well on carpets and is easy to move around. I find that it cleans my carpets with one sweep. The dirt basket is easy to clean, but deeper cleaning of the chamber is time consumming and not covered in the picture user instructions. The vacuum does not always lock in the upright postion and will flop over and hit your legs and cause bruises on your legs. Make sure you double secure the handle in the upright postion and double check before waking away, otherwise you will be nailed, or worse yet, the handle will topple over and break the glass on your china cabinet, which mine did.
Overall, the vacuum looks good in my dining room, I like looking at it and sometimes using it. But there are some annoying issues that if you are not careful, could damage your house or bruise you. .

I'm in Love With a Vacuum Cleaner
Every frustration you have had with vacuums in the past, solved with a Dyson. Hose clogged, easy removal of hose to release clog. No bags to buy, easy removal of canister and easy release button to empty out contents. No costly filters or bags to buy. So satisfied with this product and it is worth every penny I paid for it.

Disappointed
It sucks up the dirt great, but I am constantly having to take apart the bottom to remove all the tangled hair. Using the hose also is difficult.

Incredible
Freaking amazing literally 5 minutes to put together and I was vacuuming up stuff that I could not believe was there. This thing just glides across the room, around corners,and under furniture like a ballerina. For only having one ball this thing is a beast. My old vacuum that is supposed to pick up a bowling ball fails in comparison. Thanks Dyson .
