Dyson DC17 Reviews

If you are looking to buy a Dyson DC17 then you might be wondering what others have to say about the DC17.
Unlike ordinary vacuums, the DC17 is certified asthma & allergy friendly™ according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. The DC17s hygienic 5/8-gallon bin quickly empties without ever having to touch the dust – simply pull the trigger. The clear bin means no bags to buy, plus it allows for easily viewing the cleaning progress and gauging when it’s full. Air expelled from the unit contains up to 150 times less mold and bacteria than common breathing air thanks to the vacuum’s money-saving, lifetime DC17 HEPA filter. Furthermore, Dyson upright vacuums are the first and only vacuums certified asthma friendly by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation. Other highlights include an ergonomic carry handle, a maximum reach of 51 feet, a 35-foot power cord, and a lightweight design at just 20-1/2 pounds. A product manual for the DC17 and quick-start guide come included. The 1400-watt vacuum cleaner measures 16-2/3 by 13-1/5 by 43-1/2 inches and carries a five-year warranty.
The following are Dyson DC17 Reviews about the DC17 .

The thing I think I loved most about the Dyson DC17 was that even though I could feel the “exhaust” blowing on me, the air SMELLED GOOD. It smelled CLEAN.I know it’s hard to spend $500 Bucks for a vacuum, but this machine is worth every penny! Having both asthma & allergies as well as 2 cats I have been wanting a Dyson Vacuum for many years. Finally after speaking to 5 other people that have one, they all LOVE it, I was convinced to purchase one for myself. I looked everywhere online, read all the reviews and I have to agree that the DC17 is awesome!

We had 2 different vacuums when we bought the Dyson DC17 and neither came close to doing what the Dyson can do.
The first day we tried it out on an area rug – it literally picked up a canister FULL of hair that our other vacs missed earlier that day!

Strengths:
1. Best suction even among other Dyson models due to new Level 3 Root Cyclone.
2. Excellent build quality. Each piece is not an after-thought.
3. Best design – shape, color, material and operation.

Weaknesses:
1. Price – but you do pay for the technology it has to offer.
2. Heavy!
3. The cones gets clogged from fine dirt in time.

Pros: Quieter than most other vacs, accessories snap in tight, amazing suction power, long power cord.

Cons: hose wand can be unwieldy.

Would love to see an automatic retractable cord.

Overall, my wife and I are extremely happy with this purchase.

PROS:
- Unbelievable cleaning; it’s true what the other reviews say about the dirt, grit, lint, etc. that comes out of what appears to have been a clean carpet.
- Very easy to maneuver; it’s almost like a self propelled vacuum.
- Quality fit and finish; it fits together perfectly and is well finished unlike my previous Electrolux.
- Relatively quiet for such a powerful machine.
- Easy to empty dust container that minimizes escaping dust when it is emptied;
- 5 Year Warranty.

CONS:
- Cord has to be wound manually; it should have an automatic rewind.
- Clear plastic covering the brush bar; I assume that the clear plastic is so you can see any obstructions, hair, etc. that might jam the brush. This appears to be the trend in vacuums but I would rather not see the brush and dirt. I liked that about the DC14.
- Slightly heavier than the DC14 but weighs less than my previous Electrolux Oxygen.
