I'd been thinking about getting a new vacuum cleaner for awhile, and this Dyson was $140 off at Costco so I decided to get it, especially since we're getting a new fur baby soon.
I like that it's cordless and can easily reach under the beds and sofas. It's top heavy so if you have a weak grip strength you might not be able to handle it. Oh, and one more thing . . . you gotta keep pressing the trigger. Once you let it go, it goes off. They say it's to conserve the battery.
The work-around is a trigger lock mechanism that you can buy on Amazon for $10. I ordered it, but maybe won't need it. I kinda got used to holding down the trigger.
