content: Disclaimer ***the only connection I have with Dyson is that I bought their vacuum***I bought the Dyson reconditioned from Amazon last week and I am really happy with it. The suction is amazing - I have old apartment carpeting that was practically flat and it brought up the nap quite a bit. The only complaints (minor) that I have are that it heats up a room very quickly (it's 100 degrees here in CA); and the attachment wand is awkward to use.Other than that, it's a million times better than my Sharp Twin Energy which it replaced, or the Dirt Devil 12 amp I had. Especially with two cats with lots of hair.I'd definitely recommend it.
