Is there an attachment included with the vacuum that cleans stairs well?

IMO, not really if they are carpet. I use a handheld 18v that has a rolling brush attachment to do my stairs. You could use the handheld hose for hardwood stairs, but it would be awkward.

it doesn't include the vacuum. you can buy the vacuum separately here on amazon as well.

This vacuum does include a crevice tool. There is not a brush per se there is a flat attachment that has two felt like edges to it.

Hi Steven. Yes, the vacuum has a nifty 3-in-1 tool, which includes the crevice tool you describe, a little round brush and a furniture nozzle (you can see them on the second photo, behind the vacuum). This tucks neatly under the hood of the machine when not in use. There is also a separate carpet nozzle which is very effective. It is an excellent vacuum -- light, powerful, quiet, maneuverable, with a nice long "arm" for reaching under furniture and a long extension cord.

well, yes it does have a light and the suction is incredible. you could use the power paw attachment for the stairs. it attaches to the end of the hose and has it's own beater bar. the BUT in all of this is that the vac is quite heavy and would be difficult to work with on stairs. the accompanying hose and attachments may or may not be long enough for you to do your stairs. but you can order an extra long hose attachment from eureka from their website. i've been thinking about doing this even though i have no stairs to worry about. it would make things quite convient to just station the vac in 1 spot and do all the corners and hard to reach places without having to move the vac every few feet. i've had the vac about 2 months and just love it. can't say enough good about how it works. good luck to you if you get it and cleaning your stairs. eureka's site is www.eureka.com

There isn't really a stairway attachment - the stairway function of an extended hose is built-in to ALL Dyson uprights. They call it their "Instant high reach wand". They normally include a combination crevice tool/brush and a stair tool http://www.dyson.com/parts/s/stair-tool/dc41stairtool.aspx?pid=DC41-IRSPU-EXC . Since these are part of the standard vacuum on ALL versions of the DC41 and physically store on it, AND you can actually see it on the picture that shows the LEFT side (at the bottom of the crevice tool), I assume that they are included, unlike the Mini Turbine Head which is an attachment that ships loosely, only with certain models and is never pictured or mentioned on this Amazon page.

If your sets of stairs aren't too high, the wand will probably extend enough for you to clean them from the bottom. A stair attachment is included. This vacuum works GREAT for animal fur and hair, we have two long haired cats and a dog that sheds a lot. Only problem I have with mine is that it is the high maintenance girlfriend of vacuums, have to clear dust and fur out of lots of little nooks and crannies all over the vacuum every week or two or it builds up and interferes with regular operation. But it's worth the effort. After a year of service it's still going strong, and I fully expect it to last several more years.

In order to use the hose for attachments, you must push a button to "unlock" it from the base of the vacuum. I found this to be a pain. Personally, I like a hose that I can just lift out and use without any extra steps.

Yes, it is excellent. I still have a vacuum with attachments but I use the AirRam exclusively on the stairs. It is lightweight and gets in the corners and edges. Being cordless makes it even easier going from one floor to another.

I use a hose from an old hoover to extend the reach on stairs. You can go to home depot and buy a shop vac hose it works just fine

Dear Melissa, No, this vacuum only has a brush adapter and carpet edge tool. However, it does better than the Dyson we bought for $500... Suction and ease of use is well worth the money...

Not that I know of. Beware that this vacuum was great at first but something broke fairly quickly and it became LOUD to run and I could no longer adjust the height (for carpet vs. hard flooring). I would not buy another or recommend it.

Comes with 3 attachments - use the one for nooks and crannies around the edges, then the one depicted in the photo for most of the carpeted stair - I own 2 of these guys - best I've found - works fine for me - have never used the 3rd attachment - just haven't thought about its use.

I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to that, but I can tell you that it works very well and there are ample attachments. It can easily be separated so that I can use the cannister, very light weight, on the stairs, without the upright floor attachment. Incredible suction.

Yes, I agree it works well on stairs and is light enough to maneuver it about. It comes with a small wand attachment, and the main stem/inlet is an "attachment" technically. I would say that it would probably work with other vacuum attachments provided that they fit the main handle apparatus.
