Product Information

The five-year warranty of the Dyson is what finally convinced me, and I've never been happier with a product!" Increased power drives bristles deeper, to release more dirt. The power draw of the motorhead motor has been increased via the electronic control board, so it is able to use 20% more power. Increased power drives bristles deeper, to release more dirt. I did not want to permanently modify so I tried the wire tie suggestion by williams and Barry Armitage. Everything has already been said about how well this [vacuum] works, the suction is amazing. I found it pretty easy to maneuver when I first started using it and the long power cord is great."

Dyson hoses seem to stretch further yet retract to become shorter than almost every other brand’s, and the DC41 Mk2 Animal’s hose is no exception. Combined with the telescopic wand, it reached right to the top of our domestic stairs and, thanks to the low attachment point to the machine, the DC41 remained stable and upright even when provoked with some thorough tugging on the hose. You have a pet. Whether you have a dog or cat, animals leave behind a lot of fur. You need a vacuum that's built to deal with tough messes and comes with the suction necessary to grab every last strand. That's precisely what you get with Dyson's radial root cyclone technology. Seals in suction across carpets and hard floors. The cleaner heads on most upright vacuums need to be manually adjusted for different floor types. If this isn't done, a gap is created between the cleaner head and the floor, and suction is lost. You don't want a big vacuum head. The head on the DC41 may be too big to fit under couches and coffee tables. The attachment comes in handy, but needing to use it in these scenarios may be too much for some. According to Dyson, the DC41 has some of the best suction power among any other vacuum on the market. Other unique elements, include:

You don't have a lot of storage space. The Dyson DC41 is skinny; easily fitting into most closet spaces. It doesn't take up a lot of room, so it's a great option if you live in a small apartment or house. Also noteworthy: this was the only test where we saw the DC50 outperform the DC41, as it cleaned sawdust off of low-pile carpet almost 20 percent more effectively than the DC41 did. Powered up on a carpeted floor, the DC41 Animal wasn’t too noisy in use, and was considerably quieter than some older high-power cleaners we tested before the EU’s 1600W limit was enforced. It measured 82dB at ear height above the machine, which is about the same sound level as road noise in a car travelling at 40mph. A small turbo-brush head is essential for pet owners, but Dyson’s Turbine tool takes this feature to the next level. Dyson DC41 Mk2 Animal – How well does it clean? However, it’s the Turbine head that really makes the DC41 Animal a stand-out choice for stair cleaning.

Putting the DC41 Animal together from the box is straightforward (as long as you follow the diagrams!) and it’s up and running in minutes. While there’s no room for it to be stored on the machine, the hero tool supplied is the Tangle-Free Turbine tool. Attaching to the wand, this handheld tool features two counter-rotating heads, rather than a traditional brush bar, with flexible brushes that reach to the edges of the tool. It looks strange, but for owners of pets it’s nothing short of revolutionary. Streamlined profile for even easier steering around the home. With our latest Ball technology™ even more of the machine's key components are housed inside the ball itself. This reduces clutter on the outside of the machine, streamlining its profile.You want an easy time getting your vacuum ready. The Dyson DC41 doesn't come with a button to get the vacuum into a reclined position. You're going to have to manually adjust it to start cleaning.

Well after the Cat 5 hurricane we replaced the carpets with new deep pile. And I am 6 ft tall 185# in good shape and I’ll be darned if I could get our Dyson Ball Animal 2 to move without it being a SERIOUS workout. Our house keeper just can not use it. Read all the posts there are several solutions. As you move from carpet to hard floor the automatic adjuster immediately changes the level, so there’s no faffing about with levers to change head height. It veritably glides around hard floors, with the ball making it feel very light and manoeuvrable. Dyson DC41 Mk2 Animal – How does it perform on stairs? It's expensive but worth it. It's heavier than I expected, so it's not so easy to carry it up 3 flights of steps." This is a good all around vacuum, it never loses suction, its easy to remove the debris, has a hose that extends quite far, and just works well." The ball mechanism makes the machine very easy to manoeuvre and Dyson has managed a perfect balance in the hand, with the DC41 never feeling like it wants to tip one way or the other. It’s relatively light, too, so long cleaning sessions will never be a chore – well, no more than they are naturally.The picture of the lady stretching the vacuum all the way up the stairs is laughable. I think the vacuum would need to be bolted to the ground for that to happen."
