 Amazing performance! The best vacuum ever! March 23, 2010

This Dyson is so amazing! It really does a great job of deep cleaning my carpets. I'm not normally a canister user, but I received this as a gift and I was blown away by how well it worked. It's also great for using on stairs and picking up pet hair. Totally recommend!
 Big Disappointment March 9, 2010

The Dyson DC23 motorhead is a huge disappointment. I have owned a Dyson upright for years and was so happy with it that when I decided to buy a canister to make it easier to vacuum under furniture I immediately chose Dyson. Big mistake. The first thing you notice is that Dyson could not have chosen a cheaper made hose. My Dyson uprights hose is reinforced with a wire strand. This hose is so thin that it actually kinks and shuts off suction as you manuever it. I would compare the hose on the canister to what one would expect from a cheap $50 bath tub bubbler that they use to sell many years ago. Dyson could not possibly have made this hose any thinner or cheaper. The lowest supply bidder definately got that contract. It had to have cost Dyson just pennies to buy. But thats not even the real disapointment. This vacuum will convince you not to buy a bagless unit. The suction unit inside the plastic dust collection reservoir is very narrow along the top (only about 1/2"). If you have high pile carpet, the carpet fibers and dirt get lodged between the suction head and the plastic reservoir case. So when you empty it the dirt at the top of the reservoir does not fall out. So now you have to insert something like a knife to force it out and dirt gets everywhere. If everyone made a bagless canister like this one, no one would ever buy a bagless model. Dyson will correct this issue in future models, wait for the engineering changes! Wish I never bought this model.

Instead of writing a long paragraph, I'll just jump to the pros and cons
Pros:
- Amazing suction: The amount of dirt and lint it sucks is incredible. Compared to my old hoover where I had to go over the carpet few times to suck out all the dirt, the DC23 is so powerful, I only have to run over the carpet once or twice and the carpet is clean. This is primarily due to the strong suction but also to the very powerful brush.
- I have very expensive and old rugs with tassels. When the motorized brush runs over the tassels, the brush shuts off. My old hoover vacuum would either gets intangled with the tassels or the rubber band connected to the motor would snap.
- It has a telescopic rod. When fully contracted, the DC23 is ideal for cleaning steps.
cons:
- VERY BIG WEAKNESS: The motorhead is so strong (a plus as I described above), it sucks in my delicate and fine rugs. Not only it sucks it in, but it's also stripping some of the threading from the 100 year old rugs. I wish Dyson had put a level to control the rotator head instead of just providing an on/off switch.
- Again, because of the strong suction, I'm having to empty the canister 3 or 4 types every time I vacuum my whole house, 2300sf. This is pretty minor actually but it was worth noting because my wife was complaining about it. I didn't seem to mind or care about having to empty out the canister frequently.
So far so good... July 19, 2009

Been using it for about a month. Was looking to switch to a canister design. Wasn't sure, but was willing to try it out. After using it for about a month (vacuumed whole house - about 1600 sq ft. - 3 times). Haven't really noticed the short comings others noted here. But yes, the hose will collapse if you step on it. I think I'll be letting go of my Dyson DC15.
