Dyson DC44 Animal Vacuum Refurbished

I absolutely love this Dyson DC44 Animal Vacuum Refurbished so far. I bought because I live in a 700 sqft with a high-shed dog. I have already tried it on laminate, tile, carpet and rugs. It gets into all the nooks, under couches and maneuvers between chair legs with ease. I can vacuum under beds and behind furniture really easily! But the thick carpeting in only one of my rooms still needs my big, bulky vacuum cleaner.

The suction power is what makes the Dyson brand in my opinion worth it compared to other models.

So far no problems with the refurbished vacuum - I've had it about a month. We have another Dyson in the house, a regular upright, but needed a new cordless unit for the basement/non-carpet areas. The first DC44 I received was pretty banged up, even for a refurbished unit. Per the product description, "new parts are added to replace damaged or cosmetically unacceptable parts discovered during the stripping down process."

The wall dock is a little flimsy, hoping it doesn't break after frequent use. This won't replace our upright (DC25) for carpeting, but it's been great otherwise. It's not the strongest vacuum ever, but oh my goodness--the cordless aspect is amazing. I've happily traded power for versatility and convenience and would buy this Dyson DC44 Animal Vacuum Refurbished over and over.

I take it out to the car for a quick touch up, vacuum up sand tracked in the house with a swipe, and still am able to vacuum our small two bedroom home every weekend for routine maintenance.
