Dyson 2014 | Dyson DC65 Animal Vacuum vs. Hoover Air Pro vs. Shark Rotator | Upright Bagless Vacuums

Dyson DC65 Complete Vacuum Review: http://www.smartreview.com/dyson-dc65-animal-complete-upright-vacuum-cleaner

SmartReview.com met with Suzy Traynor, Dyson’s spokesperson to get a full extended demonstration of Dyson’s Best Bagless Upright Vacuum, the DC65 Animal Complete. It has 25% more power in the cleaning head than last year’s DC41 that it replaces. This vacuum is great for those with pets, as it easily handles pet hair, and the vacuum has been approved by the Asthma & Allergy Foundation of America.

This video shows some of the Dyson DC65 main features, and compares the DC65 against the leading bagless vacuums from Hoover (Air Pro) and Shark (Rotator Professional). Testing by Dyson includes Suction & Pickup, Manueverability, and Durability.

The Dyson may have more suction, but it has two major flaws. One: It's a motor bypass system, which is virtually every bagless vacuum, or vacuum with an onboard hose. The hose typically focuses suction power to one part of the head. And two: it doesn't actually create a seal to the floor. Even though the head automatically adjusts, the head, made of Lexan (polycarbonate), is too light to seal to the floor. Whereas any direct air machines, (Kirby and Royal, Kirby being the better one of the two) will outclean any motor bypass machine, because they can seal to your floor, even though it has less suction. (A Kirby Avalir (2014-present) pulls 60 AW (air watts) of suction, while the top of the line Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal+Allergy pulls 180 AW.) A direct air machine, usually aluminum is heavy enough to seal to your floor, and you adjust the head yourself, using a control next to the head, to ensure it will seal to the carpet or hard floor. The suction is also spread evenly across the head, because of the bell-shaped head.

People say – "buy the Shark and save a ton of money.". But they forget about durability. I have this Shark Rotator – bought it in September-2014 and the chrome paint started peeling off on its own after only 3 months. Because it looked ugly, I hid it in my closet when not in use. Yesterday, when vacumming, some fish bait line got intertwined with the roller and guess what! I wasn't able to get it out because apparently, you cannot unscrew the bottom base to get the bait line out as there are 2 rollers that are permanently fixed that obstructs 2 screws from being unscrewed. I attempted to open it and the plastic just broke into 3 pieces. So yeah, durability on the Shark is awful – about 12 months of use.

Are people so naive to think this is a neutral review? People are thanking smart review for their work, just thank dyson for their smart review sponsor. In all honestly, these vacuums are very similar (dyson was top of the line 5-10 years ago, but the other brands have caught up). In the current market, dyson dominates in one category – marketing, which allows them to charge a large premium to consumers.

Owen Dale says:

Dyson is a great hoover 
Sweeping the markets
Good on all types of floors
And loves putting out dirt out of all types carpets
Mr Dyson is truly please
Cleaning up every home globally with ease
In the process making real honest cheese
Frequently like the movements of honey bees
Standing tall like a humble giant
Flowing, glowing, growing with wisdom and good deeds 

Written by Owen Dale a humble wordsmith
"THE MAN CAN'T WHO STOP WRITING" 
"OWEN DALE A GREAT MAN OF VISION"

This is dumb. That's why they aren't using the floor attachment for the shark. I personally have that and my family on my side and wife side have a shark now. Whatever Dyson

I bought a $450 dollar DC17 animal about 10 years ago and still today have no complaints, issues, or anything at all still pics up like the day I bought it and still have never even bought a filter for it everything is completely original. All I have ever done is clean the washable filter every couple months and remove an occasional clog. Which has compartments designed just for that purpose. Which was thought out really well. Unlike other vacuums that have there hoods welded shut because you will never have to remove a clog! REALLY everybody knows that is BS. 10 years later still no complaints.

Krissie Brown says:

Ditch the Hoover and Don't Get a Shark. Dyson DC65 has Ruled the Vacuum World.

James Bly says:

Seems more like an ad for Dyson than a competent comparison.

David Green says:

Have used both, the Shark is tippy, but the Dyson is not quite as easy to use.Warranties are 5 on each,purchased Shark for 200 for me it was a no brainer

Sam Mielke says:

Wow only ten years, I have a kirby that is 30 years old and still running great

Mon S says:

That Hoover looks a lot like the very first generation dyson dc15. What a shame Hoover copied an older model and selling it, shame on Hoover!

Dyson DC65 Animal Vacuum vs. Hoover Air Pro vs. Shark Rotator good

Nameless_Ghost says:

I bet she's got some suction power. The vacuum, that is. 

IamUncledeuce says:

Well that seals the deal for me.  I've been up on DogChat etc… and believe me:  Dog people have a lot of experience with hair.  One respondent has 12 Irish Setters and a Dyson.  But there were others throwing around the other models as viable alternatives.  I need the HEPA, I need the attachments, the turning radius etc… I need the whole package as I have been using budget uprights for years and now have realized after a hiatus with animal hair that the new girl dog is causing  hair issues and this time I'm going to take care of business.  Thanks Smart Review! 

Dannial Williams says:

If you pay attention the shark and hoover have there brush rollers off like you should on hard floors but go to the Dyson and listen carefully and wow what a shock Dyson had there brush roller on. Which makes a different with the crevices in the floor because the brush is getting down in there and cleaning. Try it with the shark and I'm sure you'll see the same results as the Dyson. I have the shark and I know this is rigged because the shark works better than that.

Dyson has a great vacuum cleaner and shark has the best steam mop 

Keith Johnson says:

I worked at a MAJOR hotel chain and have used/paid for just about every type of vacuum available-from el cheapo to expensive commercial types and ,frankly, the Dyson's put them all to shame. Not only do the quieter Dyson's start with and KEEP far more suction as the canister fills up, they are even more durable than the $1,700 "commercial" ones that are made of metal and weigh a TON!! The Dyson's are made out of the same material that motorcycle helmets are made of and designed SPECIFICALLY for maximum performance with minimum care. If needed, you can disassemble almost the entire unit with a COIN! They're designed to do that as tools are not usually available in most households! A 5 year warranty is unheard of in the vacuum world and when we had to send one in for a repair that was ,frankly, our fault ( the Dyson "accidentally" fell down a flight of concrete stairs) it was quickly repaired – completely torn apart, cleaned, repaired, checked and reassembled and sent back in an original box!all at no charge with a follow up call from a real person to see if the repairs were satisfactory! Their customer service is unmatched and when you figure in the cost of all the belts, bags, filters, ( IF , and that's a HUGE "if"..you can find the right ones and NONE of which the Dyson's will ever need) over the life of a vacuum, their initial price seems like a bargain. Customers around the world must love them because they outsell virtually EVERY vacuum between $200$700. I'm a convert for life!
