which dyson is easy to use on stairs ans hardwood floors

I don't think any Dyson is worth the cost, however, the only Dyson I have used is the Dyson City DC23. There is little draw. It's actually the brush that picks up the dust and it requires you clean the brush intermittently while vacuuming. I suggest you look at other brands for your needs. I use a Bissell bagless upright and the draw is terrific...strong. I'm sure other brands work well also. This model Dyson would be very difficult to use on stairs as it's cumbersome and heavy.

I own a Dyson DC23 and it works extremely well on my carpets. As for tiles and hardwood floors, it doesn't clean them as well as it does on my carpets. I end up using a "Swiffer" Sweeper 2-in-1 mop and broom for the hardwood, and Tersano cloth pads (which fit the Swiffer) for the tiles in my kitchen. This Dyson is decent enough for stairs as it can sit "tilted" between the stairs--you just need to be able to lift it up by the handle one stair at a time.

This is awesome on carpets and furniture, but not so good on bare floors. It will suck up big stuff, but it doesn't do nearly the job that a canister vac with the brush does. The lift-off option is great and with the pet attachment it's a breeze to get hair off of the stairs, but if there is sand on the stairs you would need to lug the whole vacuum to do an adequate job. No bags, like the dyson, and very easy to clean.

I have not used the Dyson. The Shark Rocket is great. A lot of suction power. The canister needs to be emptied frquentluy because it fills up fast. But it really does pick up dirt down deep. My wife and I love it.

Wish I could answer about stairs, but Ive used it for a few months now in a 800 sq ft apt mostly carpeted and I've loved it. As a guy who doesn't vacuum regularly, this thing is awesome because its easy to use and it picks up a ton. I have no problem emptying out a container, it's so much easier then remembering to buy bags or filters.

I think a vacuum would do a better job on stairs. This is mainly for clothing and furniture material.

I haven't tried all dyson vacuums however, my daughter has an animal 41. I wouldn't give it hoseroom. It's big, it's heavy and the size of the ball is very limiting (i.e. getting under tables and other furniture). The stick 44 has amax run time of 20 minutes on a charge and is absolutely fantastic for daily area clean ups. I prefer a hosed central vac system for vacuuming soft furniture and baseboards etc.

I haven't tried this particular model on steps with carpet yet, though I am sure it would work well. The Dirt Devil Gator 18V Cordless Bagless Handheld Vacuum works great with carpeted steps too (I have actually tried that one on steps myself). The advantage of the Accucharge is that the battery lasts a long time. The Gator has a power brush tool.

I use this vacuum exclusively in my cleaning service and we do a lot of stairs. The great thing is that Eureka puts a grip just above the light so that you can easily hold on to the head while you vacuum down the stairs. You don't need to use the hose if you do it this way. I will admit that if you have a bad back, you wouldn't want to use this method.

I just purchased the Dyson 18, as my Oreck was not getting the job done on my shag carpet. For me it is easier to vacuum with the Dyson and it is amazing how much it picks up. So far I am very happy with it!

This is the best for the stairs! It has 2 rotating brush extensions for either wide or shallow stairs, or your preference. Easily detaches, easily connects.. It is light enough in weight, that it will be fairly effortless to go up or done the stairs, doing carpet or hard flooring material. Lastly, it gets good and close on the edges next to the wall or the next step, however your stairs are arranged. I think you will be pleased, I have been!Have fun,Mark

I really don't understand what you're asking. I love my Dyson. It's so easy to use!

I cannot compare with Dyson, since i never had one. Samsung is working great on carpets, has strong suction, it is very goon on hard floor as well.I have no pets, cannot tell about pet hair. It works very well on stairs, has all necessary headers. I own it for more than a year. Great piece, i love it ( my husband loves it even more - adjustable and long telescopic tube and powerhead)! they are very big in Europe, i wish they were better represented in the US - it was very hard to find it in any store.

The Dyson DC33 would work great for you. I also have varying surfaces in my home and long hair. The vacuum sucks up all kinds of hair and debris on all kinds of surfaces. Had it for a couple of months and I love it

I think so! We have hardwood with some area rugs and it's been our sole vacuum for just about a month. We'll likely need to pull out the Electrolux just to vacuum off the bricks on our woodstove hearth, but I really can't fault the Roomba for not getting in the deep mortar joints on our brick work. We were thinking about picking up a small handheld vac (like the Shark 12 volt) to make such brick work and stairs a breeze.

We have 3 dogs. Own a Dyson Animal and just bought the DC56. The DC56 will not serve as your primary vacuum cleaner if you have a lot of fur to deal with. It's great for getting underneath tables and chairs and into tight spaces where our Dyson Animal will not go. So we use both. The Animal comes out first and then we vacuum and mop the hardwoods second.

Dear Rambrijesh, There are a few main differences between the Animal and Multifloor version Dyson vacuums. I know of the differences because I own the Animal and my brother owns a Multifloor Dyson. The Multifloor does not do a very good job on carpets. It makes louder noises on carpets, especially on area rugs compared to the quieter Animal. The Multifloor is actually better on hard floors in both cleaning and quietness. On the Multifloor vaccuum, the wand extension is more awkward to use on stairs and under beds than the Animal. And last, the bristle head on the Multifloor gets tangled from animal hair, where the Animal does not get tangled from any animal hair, no matter how long. So, if you have more hard floors, no pets and no stairs in your home, the Multifloor would be a better vacuum for you. But, if you have mainly carpet (or area rugs), pets and stairs to vacuum, the Animal is perfect for your needs. I hope this answers your question and All The Best To You, Maren

I have trouble making a choice between Dyson DC25 All Floor and DC25 Animal. I have both hardwood floor and carpet as well.
