Dyson sucks like nothing else, 22 Mar 2009
This review is from: Dyson DC23 Allergy Dyson Stowaway Easy Storage Cylinder Vacuum for Allergy Sufferers (Kitchen & Home)
I just loved my old Dyson DC01 now my new one has arrived it's more compact and sucks so hard it tries to lift the carpet off the floor, oh and it gets up dirt that has been ground into the floor...
IF YOU WANT A DYSON THAT IS GREAT AND SMALL BUY THIS ONE, YOU WON"T REGRET IT

excellent piece of kit, 27 Aug 2008
This review is from: Dyson DC23 Allergy Dyson Stowaway Easy Storage Cylinder Vacuum for Allergy Sufferers (Kitchen & Home)
After reading a few bad reviews on this Dyson I certainly had my concerns on it. People were saying that it was too heavy?? awkward to use?? had a small capacity?? and the best of all the lack of suction??????..... So I went home and put it to the test. I have two different types of carpet in my house, short and long pile and this vacuum cleaner works very well on both. I also have a hardwood floor in my hall which the Dyson also cleans very well. Its a very compact machine and will fit into small cupboards and has good accessories to clean cars, curtains and sofa's etc. This is a good vacuum cleaner and the capacity is the same as any other vacuum cleaner of the same size, if you want a larger capacity then I suggest you buy a larger cleaner. I was toying with buying a Miele which was priced the same but fell for the design of this one..... being a bloke an all! its a good all rounder and does the job it was designed for.

Still going over a year later, 25 Jan 2010
This review is from: Dyson DC23 Allergy Dyson Stowaway Easy Storage Cylinder Vacuum for Allergy Sufferers (Kitchen & Home)
I thought I'd wait a few months before reviewing this - after all it might work well for the first few hoovers and then die on me. In the end it's been over a year, but that means you benefit from the knowledge that a year on it's still working fine for me and I'm happy with my purchase!
Good points:
1. Good suction for a smallish machine - and this is after all why I bought it!
2. Bagless. I've always had bags, so this is still novelty. Also kind of freaky to see what is hoovered, especially from matresses....
3. Good set of attachments, including a smaller head - mini-me in our house - which is good for doing the stairs.
4. Easy as pie to use. I know no hoover can be that difficult, but it's easy enough to detach bits and adjust height.
5. Small and easy to store.
Bad points:
1.Heavy - I agree with other reviewers, it was heavier than I expected.
2.I'd like the cord to be longer - it doesn't seem long enough to me as it barely reaches from the top to the bottom of our stairs (we do have a dog-leg)
All in all a good purchase.
