Rating : - Love my Dyson DC17 Animal Cyclone Upright Vacuum Cleaner
I just received my Dyson yesterday. I am amazed (and embarrassed) how much dirt and dog hair it picked up. I did a once over in my living-room, bedroom and office and managed to almost fill the canister. My Hoover would only wrap the dog hair around the brush. It didn't pick up much. The Dyson was also easier to push around than my self-propelled Hoover.

In comparison, the Dyson does its job better, is quieter and easier to push around than my Hoover.

The only complaint I have is that the "instructions" that came with it were minimal at best. I went to Dyson's website to see if they had more in-depth instructions on what each attachment was for and how to attach it. Nothing there. My daughter has a Dyson so she came over to show me how to use them.

My daughter has had her Dyson for several months and she loves hers also. I highly recommend this product.
