Yes, Costco. I just picked this up yesterday, and it comes with four attachments standard. And because it's Costco, the price is great.

I was on Dyson's website and they said they no longer make the 65 Animal. I just ordered this and thought it was an animal one. I hope I am not disappointed? I had the Dyson 17 Animal Since 2008. I did have to take it apart twice because of loss of suction in the cylinder. I watched a YouTube video. But after cleaning several clogged cylinders it was like new. I had to do it again yesterday and used too much torque and broke a mount which left a gap and the suction....sucked. Does the brush still spin on wood floors?

I called Dyson on this myself. The only differences are: (1) the attachments that are included and (2) the color. The main body of the unit is the same between the two.

Perhaps the difference is the Dyson DC65 Multi Floor has the ability to automatically adjust to floor heights, while the DC65 Animal does not. That is a guess, I am not sure if that is correct. I am not the sales person, but I can say the vacumn I got did a fabulous job of picking up cat and dog hairs!

Yes, the Dyson Home Cleaning Kit - like all the Dyson products - is high quality, and I have found it to work very well with the dc59 animal. I've been more than satisfied with its performance.

I have both. I have carpal tunnel in my right arm. The self propelled does help you use the vacuum better. The girl that helps me clean though, prefers the dyson hands down. I since have purchased the DC40, because of the light weight, she doesn't like that one as much as the old one, which I gave to my daughter. My daughter and the house cleaner both prefer this model to the new ones. Since my purchase of the DC40 the motor has gone out in it 6 months after purchase. I have 4 cats and live in the country. Lots of dust and fur and this DC14 has probably been my best vacuum compared to all these hoover windtunnels, and kirbys. It may be more bulky, but boy does it work good. I miss it and am trying to reposses from my daughter now, lol! But it handled pet hair well. I usually washed filter out once a month. I took to dyson service and had cleaned once a yr. I've had mine 10+ years.

We too have a central vac system. Have had it for about 11 years. Over the past two years we have added three dogs to our household and wanted to get something that specifically addresses pet hair etc. We purchased a Dyson DC17 Animal based on reviews and recommendations. While the Dyson does a very good job at removing dirt (we also live in a rural area) that the dogs drag in, there are some issues. As far as quality, the Dyson is a tank. while many of the components are plastic it is rugged and durable. If you have a multi story house and can afford it, buy two since it can be cumbersome to carry up and down the stairs. 1. The filter clogs continually due to dust and such that is filtered out. I would recommend purchasing additional filters so that you always have one clean to use while the other (s) are being washed. 2. The lack of avaliability of parts for the unit. We maintain an inventory of belts just in case one breaks. You just can't pop down to Target to purchase one. But that's a different story since Target sells the vacuum but does not stock belts and filters either in the store or on line. 3. Don't expect it to completely replace your use of the central vac. The Dyson is a great vacuum for use on carpets however for hardwood surfaced floors it is less than ideal. Also the flexible hose is great for a quick pickup or to vacuum the baseboards, it is very difficult to use as a hard surface solution. For this stick to your central vac.

I do not know. I would contact Dyson at their website if you aren't will to try it on a small, less-noticed place.

I'm not familiar with the Dyson DC25, but if it has a detachable hose, I'm sure it will work. If I can get my cheap vacuum to work with these, then an expensive vacuum like the Dyson should be able to do it too. All you really need is a vacuum with a hose to suck out the air from the valve.

Hi.. I purchased the DysonC65 this past summer. I wanted/needed a vacuum that performed better and outlasted my previous 2 vacuums. After lots of research thru independent review websites, I decided to purchase the DysonC65 vacuum! I bought it thru Amazon.com and it did include a 5-year warranty! I have three area rugs, none of mine are loose weave. The first time I vacuumed with the Dyson, my rugs were not only debris free, the very unexpected surprise was the carpets looked cleaner, brighter, colors more vivid. That was a very happy feeling. I stood there looking at my rugs kinda shocked. Then looked at the canister and saw how quickly it filled up! It was getting out actual deep dirt, that my previous vacuum weren't powerful enough to pick up. There is no other explanation. The rest of our home is either hardwood, or stone. We have NO carpeting at all. The Dyson is not cheap! I too had questions and wanted to know if this would be a good investment. So far, I say, YES, definitely. We have two dogs.. one with a double coat. He sheds so much. He is a dear sweet thing so either sweeping or vacuuming up after him is worth having him in our family. I hope my experience with the DysonC65 helps you decide! Jan Cappell - Royal Oak, MI

You know I did a lot of research before I finally purchased my Dyson and the best I've been able to determine the machine itself is the same. I've heard from others that the Animal has stiffer bristles in the motorized head but the two seemed the same to me in the store. The main difference (besides the color) appears to be what's included in the box. You get a different set of tools with the Allergy model than you do with the Animal. The Allergy comes with a soft dusting brush, matress tool and flexi crevice tool that add up to $89.97 purchased seperately. The Animal comes with a mini turbine head, low reach tool and a carpet cleaning kit with Zorb and Dysolv which add up to $145.96 purchased seperately. I think that's your difference in pricing. Hope this helps you out!

No. Just believe dyson products are great quality. Ours came out before the ball vacuum

I have the Dyson animal ball upright vacuum and my attachments do fit the DC 34.

The motor head is worse the brush bar barely touches the floor. I have had both the dc59 animal and the dc59 Motörhead and I like the animal much better. Dyson claims the motorhead works better due to its stand alone powered brush bar but I beg to differ. I think they failed with the brush bar itself and didn't put it low enough. Get the animal, it's a cheaper better vacuum.

Nancy, it does, but it is very small! Also, a detail hose attachment is included! I would check, Amazon to see if Dyson has additional attachment!One other, thing, Nancy, the DC40 is the original size vacuum! It is small, does a fantastic job! If you have animals, you will need to buy the DC65 Animal! It is bigger, but it is heavier! My DC40 is light, moves very fast, so easy to use! The larger DC65, does cost more too! Hope this helps you, Nancy! Like I said at first, the attachment is small, about 3 to 4 inches across, with red, fibric pads on either side!

I have short nap and run it with or without the brush and no problem We also have a DC40 and it piles the rug up so you to have a foot holding down. I haven't found anything that gives the DC65 a problem. It's had to be the best vacuum we have ever had.

I have a DC 15--the first ball. Just got off the phone with Dyson and they said the attachments will not fit the DC41. BTW, Dyson gave me an additional 20% off and arranged for me to trade in my old DC15. Have to buy directly from them, though.
