About This Product

The Dyson Small Ball upright has the most powerful suction of any lightweight vacuum. It weighs just 12.15 lbs., so it's easier to carry around the home and lift up stairs. With a retractable handle, it takes up to 50% less storage space than a full-size upright vacuum. The self-adjusting cleaner head automatically seals in suction across carpets and hard floors. It's also has carbon fiber filaments on the brush bar, so it captures fine dust from hard floors while the direct drive motor pushes bristles deeper into carpets for a more thorough clean. Dyson's patented Ball technology means it's easy to maneuver around furniture and obstacles. It includes a 5 year warranty covering parts and labor.

    Yes! It wonderful on my original hardwood floors.

      It is best to use on a hardwood floor or SHORT-hair carpet.

        Hello John, this is Kelly with Dyson. The Small Ball Multi Floor upright vacuum can be used on hardwood flooring. The brush bar on this machine can also be disabled, should you desire, so you're not using a spinning brush bar on your hardwood. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support

          Yes.

                  This is the worst vacuum cleaner for carpets period. It is like pushing a car across the room. I don't understand all of the glowing reports.

                        It’s most likely clogged between the the brush and the canister. I had this happen, and was able to unclog using my shop vac. Remove the canister and look for the opening for dirt to travel. This is where I put the shop vac. Regarding the brush rotation, make sure the silver switch is on. Hope this helps.

                            Hi Toni, this is Kelly with Dyson. All of our vacuums, including the Small Ball Multi Floor are completely bagless. All of the dirt/debris will fill in to the clear bin on the machine. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support

                            By|Sep 2, 2019

                              No! You just unhook it and empty it in the trash.

                              By|Sep 6, 2019

                                No, it doesn't need bags.

                                    Is this vacuum comfortable for a person over 6' to use without stooping over?

                                    I think it would. The man who used it for me seemed to vacuum with ease. He never said it was uncomfortable for him at 6'+ and he did not appear to be 'stooped over'.

                                    By|Aug 21, 2019

                                      My best answer is ‘likely’. The handle/wand extends up to 42”. To engage the motor, you tilt the handle/wand assembly down. The motor will then continue to function until upright. Hence, the range to keep motor engaged is fairly liberal. Hence, I suspect it to also work for a taller person.This is a great little product.

                                      By|Aug 15, 2019

                                        The handle telescopes up. I am 6'1" and have no problem with it.

                                        By|Aug 19, 2019

                                          The vacuum itself is 42" tall, you will bend a few inches down before vacuuming. You can use a stick at home to gauge it before you guy.

                                          By|Aug 15, 2019

                                            Hello there, this is Kelly with Dyson. The Dyson Small Ball is a compact upright machine, and won't stand as tall as a regular full-size upright. If you are taller in height, you may find the reach inconvenient in a smaller compact machine such as this model. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support

                                                  Hello Diana, this is Kelly with Dyson. The Dyson Small Ball Multi Floor features an advanced self-adjusting cleaner head to seal in suction across carpets and hard floors. This machine features 141 air watts of suction power, so for a compact machine, the suction is good. If you have several pets in the home, you may wish to look at our full-size uprights which will provide you with stronger suction power. Best wishes, Kelly Dyson Customer Support

                                                    Yes, I bought mine last week. They delivered it today and installed it in under 1 hour. I had a great experience!for being a canister vacuum it is good with pet hair. I have a pet with a double coat and it works well. If you have one that shed's a lot like mine does though you need to empty the canister often.

                                                              Hello there, this is Kelly with Dyson. I'm sorry to hear that you have found the Dyson Small Ball Multi Floor upright vacuum cleaner hard to push on certain flooring types. The Dyson Small Ball features Dyson ball technology, which allows for easy navigation with the turn of a wrist. The cleaner head on this machine is self-adjusting, meaning that it raises and lowers to seal in suction across all floors. Ultimately, the machine being hard to push will likely be the result of suction forming an air tight seal between the cleaner head and the floor.

                                                              While we don't expect issues to occur, Dyson does back your new machine from an authorized retailer with a free 5-year guarantee. We would value the opportunity to assist you, to help ensure your Dyson is working properly. Please feel free to contact us directly at askdysonUS@dyson.com. We are keen on providing you with support and learning more about your experience.

                                                              Best wishes,

                                                              This is one of the most worthless vacuum I have ever owned from Dyson. I bought it because I trusted Dyson from the usage of my previously owned Dyson products, but this vacuum sucks (not the suction it should be doing). Spent several hours to fix/clean but nothing works. You should recall this thing (seriously)!

                                                                Not so great to me!
                                                                This is my 2nd dyson but my first buying the small Ball multi floor. Was very disappointed with the working of this machine frequent clogging and although I was able to unclog it happen again. Small ball rolling made difficult to maneuver. Great to be able to store away that was one of the features why I bought this particular dyson. But miss the powerful vacuum I am used to.

                                                                Thank you for your review on the Dyson Small Ball Multi Floor. We are pleased to hear that you are enjoying the compact size which makes it great for storing. The compact size also makes it ideal for smaller homes. With it being compact, it does have great suction power for its size. However, not as much as you will get from a full size upright. We would like to learn more about your experience, please feel free to contact us at askdysonUS@dyson.com Kind regards, Krystal

                                                                  This is the worse vacuum ever! I can see dirt being picked up, but small things are just moved around the floor. Horrible for pets! The suction SUCKS! The pet hair gets stuck in clumps in the hose under the ball. Fortunately this is common and I was able to find a YouTube video showing how to clear the clog. I have never had to dis-assemble and re-assemble a vacuum in order for it to be used. The cylinder fills up after one room, once unclogged. I have never hated a vacuum more. I've had this vacuum for just under 2 years and would go back to my old Hoover, but I gave it away. It was bulky and I had it for a decade and was enticed by the petit size and long cord of the Dyson. I'm here now to order another vacuum.

They are tough, so we subject them to 50,000 hours of testing and 550 individual tests – all to ensure that they can withstand a lifetime’s hard use. You may view a short on some of the testing process here: http://bit.ly/1HmQ7p8

                                                                      Don't let the low stars scare you away. I love the Dyson Brand. But the Dyson small ball was not for me. It did not live up to what I thought would be a Dyson product. I bought the small ball for my 74 year old mom and she did not like it. So I kept it because it was past the 90 day return policy. And who doesn't need a second vacuum at home! It works like a dust buster and that's all its good for. I have the original Animal Dyson Vacuum. I have had it 11 years and it excuse my pun "sucks" like it did on day one. I have never had it repaired and used it daily. The Dyson small ball I have hardly used and items get stuck in the tube and in the rotating brush more times than I would like to count. I have ask to return it and was told no. So do your research before you buy.
