Dyson - ball or no ball? - parthiban - 06-01-2018
Looking at getting a Dyson upright as a second vacuum cleaner, does anyone have a ball one and is it worth it over the normal one? We already have one really flexible vacuum cleaner (in fact the one the ball was based on) so I'm wondering whether the fixed wheel system might be really uncomfortable, but then reviews state the ball isn't really as versatile as Dyson claim it to be.
Then on top the fixed wheel version is more powerful and there was some other difference that I've forgotten now, but overall that is the better machine - it doesn't have the ball, but makes up for it with the above features as well as being a fair amount cheaper.
So which one to go for?

I would go for Miele Cat and Dog. Far better than the Dyson according to Which? mag. I have one and can honestly say it is very very good.

Everone i speak to seems to like the Henry cleaners but i never used one myself.
I guess the ball has more move ment but does it go under lower item like a standard hoover?
My hoover is Kirby these are good hoover but i think of changing it.

Don't those Dyson vacs cost about £300??? I have a Bissell one (can't remember the model), but its a very good vac.

Lexusboy I guess the ball has more move ment but does it go under lower item like a standard hoover?That's a problem with all Dysons really, but as it's not the main hoover I'm not too fussed about that, our current hoover is brilliant at getting under stuff so that's sorted, only reason for the Dyson would be to have that ridiculous suction power :biggrin:

2tongues No its not an upright - sorry.No probs

We've got one of these, CLICKY It'll suck the bricks out of a wall :laugh: used to made by Trewax and never known a vacuum like it for the power it has, and we've had a few industrial ones in the past

the ball is so unnecessarily more expensive for no reason

You really want one of these? CLICK ME?
Its an i-VAC, does the cleaning and then goes and puts itself on charge :thumbup:
