Dyson DC14, Is This Really the Best Vacuum on the Market?

Dyson, this name has become a name that is feared in the vacuum industry. The claims that this will be the last vacuum you will ever purchase. The talk of how it never loses suction. No bags to purchase, no extra accessories needed. Could all of this be to good to be true?

James Dyson is the type of person who wants things to work properly. He developed his first cyclone tower in 1978. He then spent 5 years working on the perfect vacuum prototype. Dyson attempted to get multiple companies to purchase the rights to produce his vacuum, but no company wanted any part of it. They all wanted to continue to make money off of the vacuum cleaner bags for the life of the vacuums that they sold. Dyson was finally able to begin producing his vacuums in Japan in the 1980's.

Dyson vacuums finally began being sold in the United States. My family has wanted a Dyson vacuum ever since the commercials first began running. They were just to expensive for our budget. Finally, in September of 2006 we were able to purchase a Dyson vacuum. My husband brought home the vacuum and I was ecstatic. We actually argued over who was going to get to vacuum the floor with it first!

My first time using this vacuum was shocking to say the least. I have vacuumed many times in my day using many different vacuums. The Dyson vacuum is so easy to move along the carpet. It feels so light as you move it around the room. it is amazing to watch how much dust and junk the Dyson pulls out of your carpets. I know that my previous vacuum was leaving so much behind when we used it. With three children and a dog I was vacuuming at least once a day, so the fact that we were pulling so much from our carpet on the first use of our Dyson was disturbing. It was only disturbing because we then knew how awful our prior vacuum worked.
