Dyson and Eureka on the same day?
This is awkward.

Anyone want to take bets on who will sell more?

Good day to focus on vacuums Woot. Taxes suck!

Product Page

I think Woot is telling us that our homes are dirty and needs to get cleaned.

The DC24!! This is by far the best vacuum I have ever used!

I got one of these a few years back. My only complaints about it are that the cord is too short and the dust bin is too small. Other than that, it has been a great little vacuum.

It has needed to have the main motor replaced once, but Dyson told me where to drop it off locally and already had the work order sent to them before I could get there. The turn around time was 2 weeks, but it came back to me with all new filters and all cleaned up, looking almost new.

Edit: Mine’s the uber-cool, limited edition Blueprint model.

And QVC is selling an eletrolux of a similar style for 199.99. New and on easy pay, plus 30 day return policy.

I have the limited version of this vacuum (bought from Woot in 2010). It’s been a really solid purchase. I wasn’t sold entirely on the Dyson scene until I tried it. I couldn’t believe the filth that was living under my carpet before this thing came along.

If you’re on the fence, just buy it. You won’t regret it.

And to make it worse, Consumer Reports gives this model a 44 out of 100 – third from the bottom in terms of upright bagless vacuum cleaners.

Normally, Dyson uses yellow to designate their all-purpose vacuum line, and purple to designate their “Animal” line for homes with pets.

Does that same designation hold true here? If so, the purple is a much better deal, as it retails for $50 more normally.

I can totally relate to the writeup.

My roommate bought a new Dyson 3 years ago this May. It has been sitting in our living room for almost 3 years all that time. People ask me if I was vacuuming. It has never been plugged in. It is in the way. I am not allowed to use it.

I got tired of vacuuming with my shop vac. The cat hair was really building up from the 4 of them. So I went out and got my own Dyson. I keep mine in the closet when I am not using it.

I will throw hers a birthday party in May!

Ha. Funny seeing as it states “No bag. No loss of suction. No awkward moves.” on the Dyson homepage :slight_smile:

I’d actually like to know this as well, as most of the issues in my house are due to the dog hair buildup.

The user’s manual in English and Spanish…

As thin as it is that’s it.

Edit: even though the link says ‘animal’ the margin on the PDF says ‘all floors’ and I see no mention of the mini turbine head.

The only difference between a DC24 Multi-Floor and the Animal is that the Animal comes with an extra attachment: Mini turbine head.

These do not ship with that special attachment (see photos for contents) so they are both being sold as Multi-Floor.

Hope that helps.

I had to check and make sure you weren’t my roomie, she knows I like using my Dyson and I don’t want anybody messing it up :wink:

This yellow Dyson was my first vacuum after moving out, and one of my first Woot! purchases. It has been great for the three dogs, two girls and one cat that all shed continuously in an apartment. Like a previous post said…if you’re on the fence about it, just buy it. It is a fun little thing, only complaint as previously stated: cord length and small canister.

Does it come with the stairs?

That helps a ton. I hadn’t realized just how similar the two models are!
