Dyson DC 18 Total Access Vacuum Cleaner (Clearance Priced)

Rating

My husband and I love this vacuum. We've had it for about 5 months now so we've had some time to test it out. Perfect for smaller households, it's compact and lightweight. It's extremely powerful and so much fun to use. My husband loves it so much I rarely get to touch it. There are couple minor drawbacks; the hose is short and you have to manually wind the cord. Despite these two design/functionality choices that differentiate the DC18 from larger machines this vacuum is a dream. Definitely a 5/5.

This vacuum is great. I can clean hard-to-reach places like on top of the curtains and corners with great precision. My only gripe is that it doesn't lock in the upright position as easily as I would like it to.

This vacuum really sucks!!! I mean that in a good way. However, when you spend this kind of cash on a vacuum, you'd think it would have a retractable cord. BUT NO - IT DOES NOT. You have to wind and wind and wind! It also has a faulty multi-directional tool that just won't lock in place, making it pretty useless. There are only two small tools that store on the side of the sweeper and the others are just for you to figure out where to store them. I also find that the wand isn't very user-friendly like my other machines. You have to go through too many steps to use it. I am also dissappointed in that there is NO low floor tool and the one they sell separately won't fit the DC18 model. It does work great when you are just sweeping, but when doing heavy cleaning, I've now got a lot more steps to go through. It just seems harder to use than my other machines.

BUT.....PERFORMANCE IS OUTSTANDING....CARPETS AND BARE FLOORS........IT TAKES PATIENCE TO GET USED TO....BUT IS WORTH IT....
