Dirt Devil Power Swerve BD22050 vs Dyson V11 Animal

It actually did better on rugs than I expected. It got most of of the stuff off the rug, but it definitely didn't do as well as my regular Electrolux vacuum. So I wanted to return it. Unfortunately, once you put the top of the handle into the main base, it will not come out! So it wouldn't fit back into the original box

I opted for the Dyson V11 Animal, but I’m sure there are other cheaper models that are similarly effective. Before this, I had a really clunky corded stand up vacuum. It cleaned just fine, but it was so heavy and clunky that it was difficult to get the stairs and it was just generally a pain to lug it from room to room.

I have a teen and 2 dogs dragging dirt and fur around so some daily vacuuming is needed. I really like that I could use the cordless Dirt Devil Swerve on all floor surfaces including throw rugs. It cleans so much better than the sticks that did not have roller brushes. This vacuum picks up dog fur so well

Dyson cordless vacuums are a bit spendy, but deliver best-in-class performance that tends to match their steep price. In testing, for example, CNET's Brian Bennett found that the V11 "demonstrated near-flawless pickup of both sand and black rice test samples," and that pet owners will love the vacuum's ability to remove hair fibers from carpeting.

3. At full charge and using the brush roll, (you can also turn off the brush roll, which is an excellent feature), I was able to have it running for full 20 minutes. It never lost suction during the entire duration. 4

I feel like it takes me 3 hours to resolve these each time and it is never easy. Suction drops and I basically have to use stop my cleaning and wash out the filter and wait for it to dry in two days . I feel like I'm at the point where I can't clean my house in a single session without cleaning my filter. I already dislike cleaning and I almost feel like I have PTSD with vacuuming because it never goes well so I put it off as long as possible and by then it's pretty bad which compounds everything

I love this vacuum, I got it to replace my Dyson rechargeable vac and it's been great. However I am unable to find a replacement foam filter for it. I have searched this site and can not find the right one. Not sure what to do now

At least you don't have to purchase bags. The dust filter seems to get dirty very quickly (I have a dusty old house with two pets, so your mileage may vary). This is a good thing and a bad thing. On the one hand, it's tedious to have to clean the filter so often (like after every full-home vacuuming)

Trying to find the right filter for this is difficult, mistakenly disposed of the foam filter and can't find a replacement for it?

For some reason all of the dust goes directly into the filter. Some goes into the main container. Shake and tap the filter out and it still has issues with suction. Something is wrong as I would not think having to rinse and clean the filter daily is indicated? It requires 24 hrs to dry so what do you use in the meantime? I am going to check and see if I am still within the return date

The little filter takes,seconds to rinse. If it wasn't over $80 I'd buy one for my office too! Can't deal with the heavy vac with a cord after this wonderful little thing! Where have you been all my life!? PS, I have the model #ending in 50. It cost a little more but I really love it!!

When emptying the bin, I just shake the dust and hair off the sponge. The exhaust filter which is behind the main unit handle was never even a little bit dusty or dirty, which means that the main fine dust filter does its job well. All the filters and the bin are washable, supposedly once in a month but I already did it twice because I like it clean. The whole stream of exhaust air goes around the battery and PCB unit and keeps it cooled

Its NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THE WHOLE HOUSE! Simply do little chores for 15 minutes at a time. The big vacuums do the cleaning all over just fine. This thing is simply a touch up tool for areas you need clean quickly. Its powerful for a cordless, easy to use and clean and does what it says

I was looking at a Dyson V11 Absolute because its easy to clean, and wireless. And also the V11 is on sale for $699 CAD right now.

but not nearly as powerful as this one is. It really picks up and even tried to suck up a small throw rug. I've yet to figure out how to separate the black filter parts and doubt the instructions are correct about that but the rest of it comes apart easily. You have to be sure that you have everything put together tightly or it will not suck properly but I've only had a problem with that one time which was the first time I used it

1, the switch why can it be held in or be a lockable switch? try to do some cleaning where you might use a flexible hose and the crevice tool? you have to keep one hand on the switch and try to stretch your other arm way way back behind say a desk or other object to try to get into places.. So you can only get as far as your 2 arms can reach while holding the power switch down. 2 This unit is way off balance I have lambert eaton syndrome and this puts the full weight right on my wrist
