I was a Dyson fan and have inquired long before I again buy a new bagless vacuum cleaner. Which reminds me, the reviews have helped here on Amazon very in the purchasing decision, so I bought this Dirt Devil. I'm excited and even more satisfied than with my Dyson, which I had at that time. This is due to the following points: 1) The price. It is significantly less than for a comparable Dyson model. 2) The performance. I can see from the suction incl. Saugkomfort no difference to Dyson. The device is small and strong. 3) Optional equipment. As with the Dirt Devil Dyson offers a variety of accessories. 4) Tools .... In this model, the high suction volume, so that the container does not need to be emptied frequently. The long cord is real comfort. The cleaning of the container is as simple as the Dyson. 5) I have extended the warranty. It costs extra but I have so the same warranty period as Dyson and the device is incl. Accessories still cheaper.
