A Comparison of the Dyson DC25 and DC28

Dyson DC25 and DC28 vacuums have many similar features. They both possess Dyson's patented cyclone technology, providing vacuuming power with no loss of suction. The vacuums come equipped with a washable lifetime HEPA filter, fingertip brush control, telescoping quick-release wands, and a 5-year factory warranty. While the Dyson DC28 only comes in the Animal model, the Dyson DC25 vacuum comes as either the Multi Floor model or the Animal model. The only difference, apart from the unit's color, is that the Animal comes with a mini turbine head that attaches to the hose or wand and removes pet hair and debris. The following features will outline the major differences between the DC25 and DC28 Dyson vacuums.
