I have the Dyson DC34 Animal Pro and wanted to upgrade it to use it as a vacuum cleaner for floors in between can. Since I only have parquet and smooth floors at home, the Parquet is optimal. It adapts to the Dyson Telescope tube with electrical connection and sucks smaller parts easily on. Larger crumbs grabs the sucker when you press the "max" button. The nozzle is relatively flat and very articulated, could not be easier in smaller corners and spaces. I am very excited about the Dyson DC34 upright vacuum cleaner along with the telescopic tube and the Dyson Parquet. I suck with this combination everyday the apartment and Klobällchen and hair of my cats have no chance. I invest about 5 minutes a day - without cable is the total fast. I am totally satisfied with the combination and would recommend it to anyone as a vacuum cleaner for in between - especially if you have pets or children.
