*I received a Dyson DC41 Animal Complete to review. All opinions expressed are my own.
My home is about 2,000 square feet with three different types of flooring throughout. This includes wood floors, tile and carpet. Having three types of floors definitely adds to my cleaning time because I have to go from broom to vacuum and back again throughout the house. As if this wasn’t bad enough each time I vacuum I have to adjust the height of the vacuum cleaner in each room I go into to make sure I get the floors clean.
I’ve been eyeing a Dyson for a few months now and finally got my chance to test one out. After looking through the wide selection of Dyson’s available I decided that the Dyson DC41 Animal Complete was the best choice for our household. We have two inside dogs and two messy kids so this seemed like the vacuum to fit all of our needs.
DC41 Animal Complete is engineered for outstanding cleaning performance, with extra tools for pet hair and ground-in dirt. It comes with Dyson’s new Tangle-free Turbine tool. DC41 Animal Complete has the strongest suction at the cleaner head, which automatically self-adjusts for different carpet lengths and hard floors. It has Dyson’s Radial Root Cyclone™ technology, and the latest Ball™ technology for smooth steering.
Up until the DC41 I had never owned a Dyson. I was under the impression that all vacuums are made equally and BOY WAS I WRONG! The moment I plugged in the vacuum and witnessed the powerful suction sucking up dirt and hair deep within my rug I was hooked. Just take a look at how much hair and dirt was sucked up on the first time I used the vacuum. You may be thinking to yourself that I never vacuum but I assure you that I had just vacuumed my floor the day before.
The Dyson goes from my hardwood floors to area rug and on to the carpet without having to make any adjustments. The vacuum is built with strongest suction at the cleaner head, which automatically self adjusts to different carpet lengths and hard floors. With the help of the super long cord I am able to go from room to room and cut my cleaning time in half. Since I have had the Dyson I haven’t picked up a broom once. I don’t need too because I think the Dyson does a better job.
Here are just a few things you can clean with the DC41 Animal Complete:
- Mini-Blinds
- Air Conditioning Vents
- Blades on your ceiling fan
- Couches and other furniture
- Carpet in your vehicle (Yes I pulled my vacuum outside and cleaned my car)
- Light fixtures
- Ceilings
- Tile
- Hardwood Floors
- Area Rugs
- Carpet
After having the DC41 Animal Complete for almost a month now I find myself actually looking for places in my home that need to be cleaned. I love how well it cleans and I am addicted to getting rid of the dust and dirt in my home. The long extenstion tubing reaches those very hard to reach places that you would otherwise need a ladder to reach. I love being able to clean my ceiling fans, corners of the ceilings and even my mini blinds by just extending the wand.
Dyson is so confident in their products that they offer a 5 year warranty parts and labor warranty on all their upright vacuums sold through Dyson.com. This particular vacuum will run you around $649.99 with free shipping through the Dyson.com website.
The DC41 Animal Complete is easily one of my favorite items of 2013!
