Dyson vacuum smells like a wet dog /Unpleasant odour - Help

Usually the result of water getting into the vacuum. Either the components weren't completely dry before reinserted them or it got wet before you acquired it.
I’d suggest washing the filter, dismantling the parts and leaving everything to dry for about a day or more.

Use the Guides and manuals link on their Cleaning the filter(s) on your cordless vacuum cleaner post. Their diagnostic site provides a step by step cleaning 😀

If it’s still there after a thorough wash, you’ll have to buy a new one!!
