 Well Designed November 3, 2008
P. Maplestone
The difference is in the design with this Dyson. You just have to see the detail. It's vastly superior to any other handheld. In fact, from Dyson's own website, I can buy any part, and make a whole new machine myself and without having to pay for costly repairs. What do you do with your old handheld when it breaks - throw it away and buy another one? Well done Mr. Dyson. It's a top product.
If you want a good price, like I did, then price watch a few places and wait for offers and deals to come by.
This is a machine for people who continuously clean all the time, as opposed to people who spend one single long period doing a more complete cleaning chore. The trigger is good too. That means the machine is only on for a few few seconds at a time when you are squeezing the trigger. Six minutes of charge could last longer. Think about other cleaners that get switched on and left on until the cleaning job is done.
Mr Dyson always betters himself, so he can't have five stars :-P

 Does what it says it does! October 7, 2008
C. Hindley (Provincetown, Mass)
this is an excellent piece of kit, which some of the other reviews nearly put me off buying. It is very powerful and has more than enough time to vacuum two cars and then some.
Handy and fun September 25, 2008
Mr. R. S. Chilvers
This product looks good and is fun. Its a little bit heavy but still easy to use and comes with a few useful attachments. Ideal for doing the car. It can be wall mounted for charging and is great for doing those small cleaning jobs where you can't be bothered to get out the upright cleaner!
I USE MINE EVERY DAY! September 10, 2008
Mr. K. Barnard
I think this item is amazing, i have had many hand held vacuums in the past and none compares to this. It makes life so simple, so much that mine is used every day virtually. Yes it has a short battery life but its only meant to pick up small dry messes, etc. If i wanted to do a spring clean with a vacuum i would use my large dyson. A must have for any busy person!
