Oh. A Dyson. Such a refreshing change.

Please! Enough with the things that suck already :/ *Pun intended*
I thought that's what the home section was for :o ?

Oh it's digitial. I will buy anything that's digitial, even if I have know clue what digitial means. It just sounds cool.

Nice. A Digitial vacuum and not your every day run of the mill digital type. SWEET!

You'll put your eye out... Oh, wait, THEY should have put their extra "i" out...

It's digitial. Is this like interstitial? Interspatial? Pestilential? Partial or impartial?

Clearly, the reviewer misread the word, because he speaks of some "digital" item, which would make sense only because of the fact that our fingers are digits and hold onto the vacuum.

Let's be nice about the typos, if that's what they are. Anyone can have a bad typing day.

So does anyone have one of these? Is it a pain to assemble and/or disassemble? Could I use this to vacuum the car, or would it be awkward to fit under the dash and between the front & back seats?

NEVAH! At least not when it's a major sales site owned by Amazon that is known for its write-ups, viewed by kazillions, and should be rigorously proofread before launch. Especially when Thunderthighs pointed out the mistake, yet it was not fixed! We champions of good spelling and meaning will not rest in situations like this.

And this guy is complaining about typos??? Pot meet kettle.

anyone able to comment on how well this does with pet and medium pile carpet?

Yes, this will suck up any small pet up to 15 lbs. Can't comment on the carpet.

Here is a user manual I'm pretty sure brought to you by the same people who handle those airplane emergency pamphlets.

Pointing out typos is like when girls say they need a man who can use you're and your as well as there, their, and they're correctly.

KNOWING THAT DOESN'T MAKE YOU SMARTER

Match.com was a cruel, tough world....

Another Vacuum... Hurray.

Bah, my goldie just hit 18 pounds.

Guess I'll have to pass!


I actually was referring to pet hair. Sadly, the hour betrays me. ;-)

ATTENTION SNARKY POSTERS!

It's called "digital" because of the digital motor inside of it.


Your Welcome.

Your Welcome.

I'm pretty sure the interest was more geared toward the fact that they misspelled "digital".

I bought one of these new about 6 months ago. I've probably vacuumed more dirt in that time than I have in the last 20 years with corded vacuum cleaners. The difference is I actually use this one. I have it hanging inside the closet on it's charger and can just grab it. It's convenient, lightweight, does a good job, and is easy to empty. I no longer dread vacuuming.

Looks like it was made by Nerf and should maybe shoot some darts.

oh.

I'm glad I bought mine last month! Same price, but it was the 'DC35 Multi Floor', so it came with more fun attachments.

Bought one last time. Pretty useless on carpets, especially if you have pets. The brush head just can't handle it. Works pretty well on floors and it's easy to dump the grit. Since I have wall-to-wall carpeting I put mine in my travel trailer so it's not a total loss.

Ah yes, another reminder of why I visit Woot! a lot less than I used to. Because every freaking time I do it's a Dyson vacuum for sale. What ever happened to random weird cool stuff being sold I normally would never purchase unless I saw it here?

I got one about three years ago that looks just like this Dyson. I'm not sure of the model at this time, but it looks the same. Battery was always an issue. It used to last about 20 minutes, but I didn't use it for a good stretch (left it connected to the charger) and when I tried it again the battery lasts about 10 minutes now. I'd love it if it were not for that. If I buy a new battery is 20 minutes the best I can hope for? Any info is appreciated.

I'm not sure the fact that there are so many refurbished products says anything good about Dyson...

ThunderThighs, will you marry me?

How long does the battery last per charge when it is new? How about after 6 months of weekly use? Can the battery be easily replaced and for how much?

Looks like something my first girlfriend had...

Good ol' Woot. Soon to be found at its new address: allvaccuumsallthetime.com

How about that,it's a Dyson and and it's a refurb !
I believe Woot has had more repaired Dysons than they have had "America Stories of War".

I bought one last time it was offered here. I was looking for a cordless vac to use on our pontoon and around the park model trailer that we have at the lake. It is the perfect solution for us. I am amazed at how much it gets out of the carpets, including the hair from our two cats. It worked great for cleaning out the car as well. The first time my wife removed the power attachment from the wand, she did something wrong and broke a wire. Dyson was terrific -- I called and they immediately sent out a new power head, which I had in just a few days. It's not a pain at all to assemble or disassemble, but you should do it carefully. It's a snap to empty -- just press a button. I would recommend it for a situation like ours, as well as for getting the stairs and other light cleanup.

Per the Dyson website:
"DC35 Multi Floor has a 15 minute run time (13 with the floor tool attached) – or 6 minutes on boost power."

(I'm assuming the DC35 Multi Floor vacuum on the Dyson website is the same as the DC35 Digital Slim here on Woot.)

Thanks for the laugh. Great way to start my day.
