Dyson vacuum cleaner Best Review 2020.

For most people, a vacuum cleaner is not really a very inspiring object. Let’s face it, you don’t really care how it works and you probably do not even want to endure the chore of vacuuming in the first place.

However, almost everyone who doesn’t want to live in a pig-sty needs one (note: students need not apply!). Recently, however, things have begun to change. People’s attitudes are changing. Vacuum cleaners are becoming interesting and it’s all thanks to a guy called James Dyson, inventor of the Dyson vacuum cleaner.




Thanks to Dyson, vacuum cleaners have taken on a personality and life all of their own. The same tactics employed by the likes of Apple to successfully ply their iMacs and iPods to the mass population (think: design and color) have now been used to great effect in the vacuum cleaner industry. And with the same results; the proliferation of styles, colors and the general level of gadgetry associated with these newfangled vacuum cleaners (the new Dyson DC15 has 182 patents filed for it), not to mention the clean lines and chic design, means that you no longer have to hide it away in the back of a darkened cupboard. 

It can become a design statement in its own right, and even a topic of conversation at a dinner party. It may be sad, but it’s very, very true. Premium vacuum cleaners, as they’ve become known, are all the rage and models like those in the Dyson range are bizarrely becoming the next “must-have” purchase for the hip-and-trendy crowd!




Let’s break down the decision that faces the would-be purchaser of one of these premium vacuum cleaners. First, you have the choice between the upright or cylinder (canister) versions. The uprights require you to use them in the traditional push-and-pull fashion, although the latest offering from Dyson, the DC15, has even turned this on its head with its “The Ball” technology, which lets it glide effortlessly around your house in any direction you please. 

The canisters on the other hand come with a hose attachment for greater flexibility and control – you can easily and accurately get into all the hard to reach places. There’s not really much difference between the two and it’s mainly down to personal preference, although the upright vacuum is probably best suited to large carpeted areas.




Second, you should consider the power of the motor and the efficiency of the filtration system. Allergy suffers in particular should pay close attention to the filtration. Dyson has been very successful by marketing the benefits of its patented “Cyclone” technology which does not suffer a deterioration in suction like traditional vacuum cleaners, because there is no bag or filter to get clogged up (which is the main cause of diminishing performance). 

So, if you're looking for a vacuum cleaner that will always deliver maximum efficiency, you can't really go far wrong with a new Dyson like the Dyson D14 or the newer Dyson DC15.




Of course if you are really feeling super adventurous, you want to stay ahead of the curve and you happen to have some spare cash burning a hole in your pocket, you could opt for one of the increasingly popular robot vacuum cleaners such as the ZA01 from Electrolux or the cheaper iRobot from Roomba. 

While you busy yourself at work all day, this gizmo will scuttle around your house of its own accord, vacuuming it’s little heart out so the place looks spic-and-span for when you get home! It even has the smarts to return to its "base" when it's running low on battery power in order to recharge itself!




So you see, something that is perceived to be boring – the humble vacuum cleaner - can actually be quite interesting when you look into it. What you may think of as the purchase of a necessary, almost commodity, item can actually turn out to be a technology purchase or a design statement that will keep you way ahead of the curve. 

I wonder if Daniel Hess, who filed the original patent for the “hoover” back in 1860, had any idea how his invention would turn out 150 years later?

Which Vacuum Cleaner Is Right For You?

There are hundreds of different vacuum cleaners available on the market and the thought of selecting the right one for you and your requirements can be daunting. The price range starts from budget models and works its way through to hundreds of dollars. The important thing to remember is that you can find a vacuum cleaner that you are happy with and that you can afford if you know where to look.




First of all, there are different styles of vacuum cleaner. These include the upright version, which is the one most associated with housewives of the 1950’s, cylinder cleaners, which have become more popular in the last 10 years and handheld cleaners, which are ideal for quick clean ups of spills and such like. These handheld cleaners are often known by the generic name of DustBusters, but this tends to refer to the models made by Black & Decker. There are many more manufacturers of these handheld cleaners available and it is worth shopping around in order to get one at a good price.




Once a decision has been reached about the style you require then there are color considerations. Gone are the days when vacuum cleaners were only available in varying degrees of beige. Modern vacuum cleaners are seen as an item of style and are sold in various color combinations: purple, grey with yellow highlights, mint green and, of course, the old beige favorite!




The next thing to consider is the manufacturer you favor. The main names associated primarily with vacuum cleaner production are Hoover and, the new arrival on the market, Dyson. Dyson have been almost single-handedly responsible for the renewed interest in the vacuum cleaner and its capabilities and have inspired a number of other electrical manufacturers to launch similar products to Dyson but at lower prices. These include such household names as Philips and Bissell.




By now, you may have an idea of the style, color and manufacturer of vacuum cleaner that you wish to purchase and are ready to take the next step by going to the store to buy. However, if you are still confused by the vast array of vacuum cleaners available, there are websites that can help you. These review the individual cleaners and can give you some guidance as to which are worth buying, and which aren’t. And remember, a vacuum cleaner is for life, not just for Christmas!







Vacuum cleaners are used to suck up dirt from a carpeted floor or sometimes can also be used on a bare floor. The vacuum cleaners rely on an air pump that sucks up air along with the dirt, deposits the dirt in a reservoir (Vacuum bag or dirt cup) then expels the air back into the room. Vacuum cleaners can either be upright, canister, back-pack, robotic, hand-held or central vacuum units. The most common vacuum cleaner is the upright vacuum cleaner. This type of vacuum cleaner stands upright and has the motor located right above where they intake is. 

Upright vacuums are also installed with brushes that help agitate the dirt from the carpet or floor. The dirt is either deposited in a vacuum bag or in a dirt cup referring to the either bag or bag less vacuum. The vacuum bag is changed out when full and the cup emptied out when the dirt reaches a certain level.




There are many manufacturers of vacuum cleaners that are designing an array of different styles of vacuums that boast different functions. There are two new trends developing in the vacuum cleaning world today. The first is the upright bag less vacuum cleaner. This style vacuum cleaner was developed by James Dyson approximately 15 years ago. 

The Dyson vacuum cleaner does not use a bag and is considered on the most effective vacuum in the market place today. The Dyson does not loose suction and effectively has more cleaning power. The vacuum cleaner sucks in the air/dirt combination and uses the centrifugal principle to separate the dirt from the air. The air is then expelled from the vacuum after passing through a number of filters which keeps the air clean. Since Dyson introduced a bag less vacuum there have been many other manufacturers introducing their version.

Dyson vacuums are however still expensive unlike the bag less competition’s vacuum cleaners. The second trend is the robotic vacuum cleaner like the Roomba or the FloorBot. These are not vacuum cleaners per see but are self propelling and clean the floor and carpet of dust and debris. They are equipped with special sensors that allow them to navigate around the room and are efficiently programmed to cover the entire floor.




To comparison shop for vacuum cleaners you can visit the popular manufacturer’s websites. Miele, Dyson or eureka vacuum cleaner website have online product catalogues where you can read up on the various features of the vacuum cleaners. 

You can also visit some of the websites like epinions.com where consumers rate and review vacuum cleaners. This will give you a more unbiased opinion. Another good source for comparisons are Consumer guides. They do a thorough and detailed comparison of vacuums cleaners and summarize their findings. 

Vacuum cleaners can be considered a big investment with some of the more popular brands going for as much as $500 dollars and some for as little as $50. The high end vacuum cleaners boast high technology that makes them more effective. 

Allergy sufferers are being advised to purchase vacuum cleaners like the Dyson Vacuum that is designed to keep dust to a minimum.
