Description of Dyson DC07 Low Reach Upright Vacuum

Suitable for bare floors and carpets, the Dyson upright features a 14-inch cleaning path and edge-cleaning bristles. A simple foot pedal switches off the brush roll for bare floors, and the nozzle automatically adjusts for changes in carpet height. The floor tool featured on this model makes for straightforward nozzle vacuuming where you usually struggle with a hose. Its ultralow profile needs only 3-1/2 inches of clearance, so it reaches easily under sofas, beds, and low chairs. For above-floor cleaning, the vacuum comes with a cleverly stowed, 17-foot quick-release hose. The hose's handle reverses to an extension wand, and onboard accessories include a crevice tool, a dusting brush, and an upholstery attachment. Made from the same material used in crash helmets, the vacuum is unquestionably durable. Plus, the design only puts 4 pounds of weight on the handle, so pushing and turning is easy. This model comes with a 35-foot power cord and a limited two-year household warranty. --Emily Bedard

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dyson DC07 Low Reach Upright Vacuum

Customer Review: Tired of BS ratings
Summary: 5 Stars

1. "The Dyson is very hard to put together"---Wrong. I had it assembled, skimmed the instruction book, and tested it in less than 10 minutes.
2. "You can't store all of the tools onboard"---Lie. All of the tools store with the exception of the large floor tool. Most vacuums don't come with this anyway, so this is an irrelevant complaint.
3. "Damaged in shipping". I suppose this could happen. However, mine was shipped via Best Buy and there was not a problem at all.
4. "Consumer Reports only rates it number 14."-Well Consumer Reports is the world's largest rip off. Who cares what they say.
5. "Unit tips over when using hose attachment"---A total lie! This unit is sturdy as the hose is anchored at the bottom of the vacuum! I tried and couldn't get it to tip.
6. "Can't clean close to the wall"---Perhaps. But I'm sure it's no worse than any other vacuum.
7. "Poor suction"-Well, it's suppose to be the best suction on bare floors (even per Consumer Reports). I'm not sure if it's great on carpet or not, but it was picking up dirt that my old Dirt Devil bagless had never picked up! Rather gross actually!

These were some of the complaint I read that concerned me. However, they're totally unfounded! Here are the positives that I see over any other vacuum cleaner-despite the obvious things:
1. This thing is EXTREMELY quiet! My wife and I could literally carry on a conversation from two different levels of the house while I was using it! And the kids were sleeping!
2. It just looks cool despite the funny colors!
3. Lifetime filters
4. An awesome method for dumping the "debris"! The bottom drops out and everything falls into the trash! Simple and clever!
5. Never have to adjust the unit for different pile heights!
6. This thing can steer and turn on a dime! My 4 year old could literally push it around with ease!
7. This thing was pulling dirt out of the carpet that I never knew was there! I think the suction is absolutely sufficient!
8. The hose and its attachments are extremely versatile! They can be attached three different ways!
9. Very ergonomic handle compared to anything else on the market.
10. Dyson was sued by one of the leading vacuum manufacturers. Dyson won because of the uniqueness of their design! Then, Hoover infringed on their patents and they beat Hoover!! Even Hoover tried to steal the idea because it is superior to their own products! I think this says a lot! Support the small company over large corporations.

Now, to be constructive, I list some of the negatives that people may "perceive":
1. The hose attachment is so versatile that it could be difficult to use. It's not a "quick-draw" style like on so many other units. But the versatility can really not be overlooked!
2. No headlight----but who vacuums in the dark anyway?
3. Expensive---But for $100 more than the nicest Hoover, I think you get what you pay for.
4. No automatic cord reel----I think these things break anyway, so the standard "wrap" is fine with me. But, when the cord is stored/wrapped, you can not use the hose attachment!

This is a totally unbiased review. After 10 minutes, I was already glad I bought this unit! Don't believe the other lies you read on Amazon.com. This unit is definitely a 5 star unit!!!
