The Dyson vacuum cleaner DC51Multifloor convinces with an enormous suction power on all surfaces. Its design is extraordinary and the many thoughtful little things such as a pull-out hose for ceiling cleaning facilitate housework very. Although it consumes a relatively large amount of energy, saves it as a bagless vacuum cleaner but with significant follow-up costs for bags and filters. The only drawback I could find: The Dyson is quite noisy.
For those who want to know more, here are the details.
When unpacking you already feel to keep a fairly expensive toys in hand. The Dyson DC51 is very light with just under 6 kg, and consists almost exclusively of plastic. The impression is deceptive, however, because the plastic is very resistant polycarbonate that is not so easy to get broken. The assembly is a little tricky because the accompanying instruction manual is not really a help, but after 15 minutes of Dyson stood ready.
With 850 watts of Dyson is below the new EU limits. Both the carpet cleaning as the hard floor of the Dyson is best in each class A of the EU energy label.
This excellent classification has 51 underpinned very impressive on our small test course the Dyson DC. I sucked in the whole house, so tile on laminate to carpet. Then also upholstered furniture were aspirated with the enclosed special attachment. Finally, we have distributed a tough test on the carpet construction dust, wallpaper scraps and sand. The suction result can be described only by the word fantastic. We had, for example, the carpet vacuumed just last week with our normal vacuum cleaner. But the Dyson took so much dirt and dog hair out of the carpet and upholstered furniture that you might have thought that here would have not been cleaned for months. When you see in the receptacle that the turbine swirled the dust like a small tornado, you get a small idea of the power output. The brush roll with carbon fibers actually solves any dirt.
For allergy sufferers important: Unlike my old vacuum cleaner Dyson no dirt blows back out as dust. Even with the dust emission class thus the Dyson is in the best category A.
The handling of the vacuum cleaner is very pleasant because of the low weight. Since the engine is installed quite deep, it has a pleasantly low center of gravity and can move in all directions easily. The intake manifold is a bit short for my 1.84 m. With an integrated switch on the suction pipe can easily switch to different floor coverings. Since we are on carpet laminate which is very convenient that I do not have to fiddle every time when changing the floor covering at the suction nozzle.
Very successful are some details like that can solve at the suction pipe of the suction unit and by means of an extendable hose can clean even ceilings of cobwebs etc. easily without a ladder. The mounting of accessories nozzle directly to the vacuum cleaner is a good Lösung.Was you do not, is an automatic retractable cord. The sufficiently long with almost 8m cable must be wound by hand on vacuum cleaner attached to the hook.
The container for the dirt is sucked up with 0.8 liters a bit too small, so I had to stop during the suction of our 120sqm twice to empty. The emptying is very easy and can be accomplished with one hand. Equally easy is the removal of the filter, when the need to be washed or cleaned times.
After usage, the Dyson can pack thanks to the retractable suction tube very small and easily stored together. My wife said, however, that one should leave him for his very eye-catching colorful designs as an art object in the apartment. The design can be, but you do not like. However, it stands securely in the eye.
A clear disadvantage of operating noise. With 90 decibels of Dyson is significantly higher than conventional vacuum cleaner. One can only describe as the sound shrill and unpleasant. Here, the powerful turbine makes very noticeable.
The Dyson DC51 is in energy efficiency category B, which is the zweitniedrigte class :. The EU calculates the average annual energy consumption for an average household with 87 m² living space and 50 cleanings per year. On the leaflet criticized Dyson that follow-up costs and -Energieverbräuche as replacement bags and filters are not included. Even the typical operating power loss in bag dust Auern when filled bag does not matter in the EU calculation. I think Dyson as responsive a valid point. Operation of a bagless vacuum cleaner is likely despite the 32 kw / h per year slightly higher power consumption (compared with 27 kW / h you are in class A) ultimately be economical because of lower costs.
Overall, I can the Dyson DC51 therefore only recommend. The only real drawback is the operating noise, but there is earplugs. However, the compact and practical design and the first place the outstanding cleaning performance on all court surfaces are convincing arguments for an acquisition.
