Ergonomically the DC52 Animal is a disaster

The suction tube is almost 20 cm shorter than the previous model and forces while vacuuming the diffracted work. The foot is now on the opposite side of the housing, which is certainly very comes to left-handers to Good. The accessories can no longer change with one hand, because of the release button is now mounted on the intake manifold and not on the accessories. The new rotary brush takes very well the dog hair off the carpet, but on my carpets, the new Animal hairbrush sucks so hard that me after 20 sqm hurts wrist. If I still want to support and hold the left hand with the suction pipe on, I have to thanks to the shortened intake manifold technology still bent as are already. The parquet brush is movable in and works very well on smooth surfaces. However, if I still want to quickly absorb some lint from the doormat, it is completely useless. The highlight of this wayward vacuum cleaner is then the dust container. The handle is so small that I can carry him with one finger to the bin. And now it is even harder. Pressed the release button opens like the Dirty Devill down the cover and it should pour the mixture of dust and dander in the trash. The whole mess is just stuck because the chamber is too tight. Now it is very courageous in this garbage to grasp and pull everything piece by piece from the dust container.

I am for many years a faithful Dyson customer. The DC52 is my fourth Dyson but certainly my last.
