Can you vacuum under the bed or furniture when using the combination floor nozzle?

No problem vacuuming under beds and most furniture, but our couch and love seat sits low, and so the nozzle doesn't go all the way under.

Under my bed in easy. It gets under all my furniture, but my couch is low to the floor; I can go partway under it. I swing one end of the couch around 60-75 degrees to get all the way under it. It's my favorite vacuum ever.

The hose has to twist allowing the swivel on the wand to turn the hose parallel to floor. No different than any canister vac

When reclined, there is about 18" from the floor to the top of the vacuum before the beater bar starts lifting off the ground. This works fine for vacuuming under furniture such as a dining room table. As far as vacuuming under anything low to the ground such as a couch, it does not work, other than perhaps the very edge. If you want to vacuum under something low, you will either have to move the piece of furniture or possibly try the hose/attachments.

I would guess the ball is around a foot high. If your bed is low it won't get under it. Plus the vacuum won't go completely flat. The wand with the tiny vacuum attachment works great for this though.

I think a vacuum would do a better job on stairs. This is mainly for clothing and furniture material.

Yes, you can. Right beneath the handle of the vacuum there is a gray band that adjusts. Turn the adjustment to the pile of the carpet. You might have to experiment on your deep pile carpet. I use the extreme suction on my deep pile carpet as it pulls from the deep fibers but then, that is my preference. NOTE: When the band is fully closed the power suction is greatest. When it is turned slightly, the suction dissipates for different flow. Check your manual as it explains how to use the gray adjustment band. Hope this helps.

Yes you can. The vacuum is better as a hand held though......it's very top heavy with the attachments. Has great suction.

I have wood and carpet and it does fine. I just use the nozzle for furniture.

Depends on the clearance of the furniture, (obviously) but the biggest problem with this model is the vacuum hose and it's loose fit to the brush roller area, pushing the vacuum under any furniture tends to work the hose loose and requires reattachment on a regular basis.The other slight problem is the discharge vent is right below the bag chamber, so if you use this on a hardwood floor, be prepared to chase down the dirt, dust bunnies as well as the loose hose problem mentioned earlier.

yes, it would be the attachment to buy to vaccuum under a bed...but mine broke and i've never bothered to replace it, and i can't recommend the product. Don't get me wrong - i love my miele vac., i just don't need the extra hassle of changing heads as my regular power head fits under our bed

Hi, Alix! The power head on this vacuum easily fits under my beds and one of my beds is an antique and is lower to the floor than usual. I have hardwood floors - I don't know how deep the pile is on your carpet or the clearing from your bed frames - might be a better question for Sears. I believe it will be low enough for underneath beds. :)

I have never had any problem using just the hose. It was one of the reasons I really like this vacuum. I put it in the upright position and yes, I do put it to bare floor if I am using the hose for a little longer than a quick clean up. Hope that helps!

Yes, I shift the lever to bare floors to keep the rotating brush off the floor, but I also use the hose and 2 extensions that come with it. I have a universal wide floor brush attachment that fits on the hard extensions and it picks up everything in its path. you have to grab the vacuum by its handle to move it along with you, but i find that easy. All in all, for the price, this vacuum sucks the life out of floor debris

It will not fit under the bed , just use the wand part . I do love this vac as i had a kirby before this one .

There's a height setting on the Dyson that allows you to vacuum both carpets and hard floor without changing height or making any other necessary adjustment. The suction from themotor is strong enough to work both flooring materials with equal success. I run my Dyson across all kinds of flooring material, and never make the slightest height adjustment.It's that good a machine.

I'm not sure if there if there is a specific "mattress" tool however the wide nozzle tool pictured on the far left which is about 8-3/4" in length and has a soft fuzzy rim on the inside works very well for vacuuming a sofa/couch and I would assume it would work just as well on a mattress.

You would have to have a vacuum with a blower function. Many shop-vac style vacuums have this, but regular floor sweepers often don't. If you do have one that has a blower function then you could probably duct tape the nose cone that comes with the air pump to the vacuum hose. The cone is removable and makes a roughly air tight connection to the inflation hole.
