Vacuum blows air everywhere, does not pick up dirt.

Sounds like the hose isn't securely fastened into the slot. Make sure you turn it, and it sort of 'clicks' into place. Otherwise, I would guess a defective product?

Not sure why listed as a question. Have had zero problems with mine. Check your connections.

Sounds like something is hooked up backwards. No problem with that here while it was running, mine died after 2 months of use, motor burned up.

You have the vaccum connections wrong make sure you have the hose connected to a red flap that opens down on the right hand side, the cord sets as you see it here. I have had mine over a year and NEVER had that problem, if connected properly and the BAG is in PLACE you should not have this trouble , if I knew more, such as where is dirt blowing from etc. I suspect the hose is hooked up wrong or the airbag is not installed tightly enough over the lip it goes on. Hope this helps.....

I found the same problem, and more, and returned my Dyson. It proved useless for everything, let alone animal hair. The attachment that is supposed to be so useful for animal hair is not even motor-powered, the sweeping mechanism is weakly powered by the suction only; the vacuum is bulky, the wand is ridiculously cumbersome. It all hype and no convenience or action. I bought a Kenmore no-bag cannister model and it's great, especially for animal hair.

same reason a vacuum cleaner blows out the back. what sucks in has to go out somewhere.

It makes noise but not a vacuum sound. The noise is made by the "roller that pics up stuff"

Must be. Like you, I had one for many many years and it did everything I needed and more. It finally died and went to vacuum heaven. I was going to buy this new version until I saw the reviews. Now I don't know what to do.

I too have encountered the same issues. This is my second Dyson, but it will be my last. If you still have the time to return yours I would recommend doing so and purchasing one of the newer Sharks! This has been the biggest disappointment. Best of luck.

my suggestion would be buy a new vac. i replaced the motor. ever since then the unit blew dirt out from various cracks. rechecked the install no luck waste of money

The inlet is large so you might not feel any suction. But it should definitely be sucking air. Try putting some steam by it, and serif it pulls the steamy air out.

You shouldn't have to do anything but I think the vacuum has to be upright when using it.

You might have the external vaccum hose loose, or your floor is really really dusty. Vi've owned 5 and never had that issue. One model was with poor suction, so I ordered another

No, it does not have that feature. The vac is simply for rugs and hardwood floor, dust and debris.

nope, I don't think so. As soon as you switched to vacuum mode, it sucks and mulches at the same time...

Have you checked the roller in the bottom of the vacuum? Could be tangled with hair. Secondly, the motor and canister areas need to be cleaned out or they will get congested with dust/particles.

No, this vacuum does not pick up anything, not pet hair, not dust, not anything. The nap on the carpet does not get fluffed up, nor cleaned, and when I tried to suck up a small piece of string the vacuum was unable to do even that small of a job. I would not waste my time or money of this vacuum. There are many far more efficient vacuums out there for a lot less money.

The Dyson AM01 10" table fan does not heat or cool the air, but just moves the air.

Hello Virginia, I moved before having to clean it but would use my vacuum brush on it periodically so the dust wouldn't build up. Sorry i couldn't be of more help.
