Dyson DC15 The Ball

Discover Effortless Cleaning With The DC15 Vacuum Cleaner

The ball design, a patented Dyson original design, is used for easier navigation and faster cleaning.

Of course, there is more to the DC15 than just the ball.

It offers Root Cyclone Technology for powerful suction, a cleaning path that is 13 3/5 inches wide, and other Dyson original features that makes the DC15 a stand out vacuum cleaner.

The easy navigation of the Dyson ball is probably one of the most outstanding features of the DC15.

The ball not only allows for quick turns and wrist flick control, but it also helps improve overall cleaning by allowing closer navigation to obstacles and road blocks.

Other vacuum cleaners can only move in a back and forth motion, are resistant to changes in direction, and do not clean curved surfaces in one motion. The Dyson ball does all of these things.

Dyson DC15 Ball

Some of the features of the DC15 Ball include:

• The Dyson "ball" for maneuverability
• Root Cyclone Technology
• Easy empty hygienic dirt collection barrel
• 37 feet of power cord
• HEPA filtration system
• Telescoping wand for high reach cleaning
• Brush control

The Root Cyclone Technology is Dyson's signature powerhouse cleaning system. With the power to avoid clogs and maintain constant suction air flow when cleaning floors, carpets, curtains and drapes, and stairs.

This is one of Dyson's technological advancements that have contributed many benefits to housecleaning.

The Dyson DC15 comes with two filters. The pre-motor HEPA filter is guaranteed for the life of the vacuum, traps up to .10 microns of dust, allergens, mold, and bacteria, and requires little maintenance. Just rinse and dry the filter on occasion for continued high performance.

The post-motor filter prevents the carbon from escaping the vacuum. Carbon is potentially dangerous and it is responsible for the smell that other vacuums create. The filtration system of the DC15 provides cleaner room air.

The HEPA filtration system has been certified as a product of choice by the British Allergy Foundation and the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. This has become standard issue for Dyson vacuum cleaners.

The high reach telescoping wand has been conveniently mounted for one touch release and extension. Combined with the 37 foot power cord, the Dyson DC15 reaches 57 feet of surface for cleaning from one outlet. The easy reach wand and attachments reach high without losing suction power for excellent cleaning performance.

For cleaning efficiency, the Dyson DC15 comes with an automatic adjustment internal system that self adjusts the cleaning height in accordance to the carpet height. The dirt collection barrel is clear for convenient sight checking for fullness.

It has a very simple trigger system that keeps hands and the floor clean when emptying the dirt collection barrel. The barrel pops directly out of the unit with ease and a trigger is pulled to open the bottom of the barrel for easy and clean dumping.

The brush bar is effective for cleaning carpets and comes with a simple one touch control for turning the brush bar off. This way consumers can move from room to room, not matter what type of flooring they have, without having to stop and change the adjustments or attachments. This is one more step toward efficient and effective cleaning technology.

Advantages

The Dyson DC15 is loaded with advantages from the ball technology for easy navigation and faster cleaning to the HEPA filtration system which leaves room air cleaner than before the area was vacuumed. This is the vacuum that helped Dyson become a household name, and for good reason.

Not only was the ball technology new and unique, but the Root Cyclone Technology created clog free vacuuming, which is a massive time saver when performing housecleaning chores. The extending and retracting handle makes for easy storage. The DC15 runs quieter than Dyson's DC07 and DC14.

Disadvantages

The DC15 provides fewer air watts than other vacuums in the Dyson line. The cost of the machine, around $600, is quite expensive for a lower wattage vacuum cleaner.

Area rugs do not respond well to being vacuumed with this machine. The suction is not strong enough to use it without the brush bar, yet the brush bar sucks up the area rug, which can cause holes in the rug.

Consumer Reviews

Consumers like: Continuous suction HEPA filter that never needs replacement Easy Dyson ball navigation

Consumers don't like: Less suction than other Dyson vacuums Difficulty vacuuming area rugs Price

Summary

The Dyson DC15 is one of the higher quality vacuums on the market and Dyson's revolutionary ball and cyclonic technology is to thank for it.

These two features, combined with the collapsible handle for easy storage, make this the perfect vacuum cleaner for apartments with small spaces to get into. The extended reach wand and hose is perfect for homes with high ceilings and stairs.
