 Love it! February 8, 2010

I am so glad I bought a refurb'd product - I wasn't sure at first, but I save a ton of money over buying new, was able to get the replacement plan, and my Dyson is in perfect condition. If they hadn't told me, I would have had NO idea that it wasn't new.
One thing to note - if you have your heart set on the yellow & steel color combo, you may want to buy elsewhere. The vacuum I received is white with steel and orange accents (no yellow!). I happen to love it and think it's much cuter than the yellow/steel one, but buyers should know that the color they see is not necessarily the color they'll get!

I have had this Dyson DC14 All Floors for almost a year. This product (and possibly other Dyson models) seems to have a design flaw. Its base is too low to the ground. Specifically, a vacuum must have sufficient clearance, so that it will not trap and drag small debris that it cannot pick up. Dyson has the lowest clearance of any vac one can see on store displays. Its low clearance from the floor makes it a floor wrecking machine.
We moved into my brand-new house that has hardwood floors throughout. Very soon we started noticing small scratches everywhere on our wood floors. We couldn't find the culprit for a few weeks, until we SAW our Dyson leave a deep, six-foot-long groove on our family room floor. I looked underneath and noticed multiple little scratches on the very bottom of the base. Clearly, that was the part that was doing the damage. The base was catching and dragging sand across the floor. The sand would scratch both the base and the floor. I contacted Dyson. They investigated the matter and said that there was nothing wrong with the machine. This is how it works.--Whatever it does not pick up on the first pass, it will drag until the debris gets sucked in eventually or worked into the floor. The floor ends up being the victim. I urge you to judge by yourselves--take a look at how low the base is. It shouldn't be so low. Most Dyson owners probably don't have a clue the kind of damage their beloved vacuum does to the hardwood portion of their floors, because most people have little hardwood in their houses.
My other issue with Dyson is that they behave like a cheap third-world manufacturer that couldn't care less about its brand reputation. I contacted Dyson's customer service for help. I sent them the vac for investigation. One look at the base reveals that there is something wrong--there are too many scratches on the base of a vac that is only months old! Dyson customer service reps took the easy way out--they said Dyson was not responsible for any damage to the floors, because the scratch was made by an external object. Yes, the scratch was made by specs of sand that the vac was supposed to pick up and not catch and drag. Dah... Now I have $800 worth of damage to my floors and a $500 vacuum that I cannot use. Dyson left me out in the cold. Stay away from this brand if you have hardwood floors! There are other manufacturers with competitive vacuum cleaners that also stand by their products.

I've had this vacuum for almost a month now, and it is one of my favorite things ever! Initially I wanted to get one of the ball ones, but Amazon had a refurbished DC14 at a really good price and I jumped on it.
I really do love this vacuum. The suction is so good that it practically sticks to the floor! In fact, on bare floors, it does! I just moved into a new apartment, and it practically pulled the linoleum up when I first vacuumed!
The attachments are super easy to use, which is another reason I love it. I have kitties that scatter litter everywhere, so the attachments make it super easy to keep that issue under control.
For the people who complained that this vacuum is hard to push, I honestly think it is because the suction is so good. Who can truly complain about that in regards to a vacuum?
Five stars all around, and if I ever do need to buy another vacuum I will buy a Dyson!
 I just got one, but haven't used it. September 10, 2008

I wonder why this DC 14 bagless type of Dyson vacuums sold in Amazon are ALL Factory-Reconditioned? I do doubt about its quality and have no idea whether I should keep it or return.
Great deal! March 6, 2008

I'd give this five stars except that the vacuum we received and the user manual that came with it were slightly different models. No biggie, except the manual made it look like the handle was on backwards when we put it together and that made the assembly process take forever! But once we got it going we loved it. Great price for a great vacuum!
