I find that the Dyson DC24 Ball All Floors Upright Vacuum Cleaner has strong points because of its adjustable and flexible features as well as its capabilities of helping rooms have cleaner air. The novel ball that is included is an engineered feature for easy deep-cleaning maneuvers around furniture. Advanced technology is put to excellent practical use in this functional floor cleaning appliance. The machine is lightweight and compact in size for cleaning in tight spaces and storing in a small area. Easy to use on any type of floor, this powerful Dyson model is a leading upright vacuum.
Here are some of the positives and negatives about the Dyson DC24 Ball All-Floors Upright Vacuum Cleaner that I think are especially important when considering purchasing this machine:
Pros
- The machine only weighs 11.5 pounds.
- Strong and consistent suction of dirt, hair and other debris is a definite plus.
- Use of the vacuum on different floor surfaces shows it is a great performer.
- The dirt canister is simple to release, dump the dirt and wipe clean.
- The HEPA filter is washable, one of my favorite features.
- It has a 5-year warranty.
- The attachment for cobwebs and dust is flexible and functional.
Cons
- The attachment for cleaning upholstery is awkward to use.
- The attachment hose is much too short.
- The attachment and hose easily gets clogged.
- The electric cord is way too short.
- The carpet brush does not really do the job.
The Dyson DC24 Ball Vacuum Cleaner All-Floors Upright Cleaner’s Key Features
Since the machine is lightweight, cleaning floors is not a backbreaking chore. Then, the ball helps it turn sharply in any direction. The machine is handled with ease, and it feels effortless and flowing in operation. The size is also compact, but the handle is adjustable to the height preferred by the user. Using a brush bar that is motorized and a wand that is reversible, the vacuum adjusts to all floor types.
The high-tech root cyclone uses centrifugal force along with its suction to divide the dirt from the air as it is pulled into the machine. The opening is always free from dirt so the machine’s suction is just as strong at the end of the vacuuming as at the beginning. I am impressed with this technology. I can clean the house without fearing that the machine is getting clogged or that the mechanisms are over-heating.
When it comes to clean air, the vacuum uses a HEPA filter. Excellent for those who have allergies, the machine has an exhaust system that actually cleans the air while it is running. Usually when I have used vacuums, the machine stirs dust into the air while the vacuum is turned on. The vacuums just seem to blow the dust around. With the Dyson, the HEPA filter is washable and the dirt is pulled inside and out of the air. So, this machine cleans the air while it is cleaning floors and furniture.
The Dyson DC24 Overall Performance
Overall, I find that the positives far outweigh the negatives with this compact and functional vacuum. I like being able to zip around the house easily changing from one floor surface to another, from carpet to wood. I recommend emptying the vacuum in the utility room or outdoors if the dust is bothersome, instead of emptying in the main living spaces. Lightweight and flexible, the vacuum gets in and around most furnishings in the home and helps to keep the home fresh and clean.
