DYSON CINETIC BIG BALL ABSOLUT 2 | Dyson Community
Skip to main content

We have been using DYSON wire vacuums for years, as we own cats and they shred like crazy.  

We have been very happy with the previous 2 models we had.  We decided to buy the above model during last Christmas.  Long story short, the last model we bought DYSON CINETIC BIG BALL ABSOLUT 2 is quite a disappointment.   Is not strong enough, and the sanction is not so good.  We may need to pass by the same spot several times in order to collect dust or other staff on the ground that are small but visible to the eyes.   Also the part that is specialised for carpets, the vacuum has not the power to turn it around on the carpet.  Therefore the vacuum is not strong enough to work as should.   We discussed it with the shop were we bought it and they said all Dyson vacuums of this specific model are the same.    Really big disappointment.
