The Features of a Dyson Ball Vacuum Cleaner

Dyson is a United Kingdom company that sells vacuum cleaners that feature dual cyclone technology. This technology uses a swirling vortex to capture dust and debris from the air and carpets. The Dyson Ball vacuum cleaners are a brand of upright vacuum cleaners, which pivot on a ball as opposed to fixed wheels. As of 2011, Dyson offers two models of Dyson Ball vacuum cleaners.
  1. Common Features

    • The Dyson Ball vacuum cleaners don't have standard wheels. Instead, a ball is connected to the vacuum head, and a motor is located inside this ball. Since the motor generally is the heaviest part of a vacuum cleaner, the location of the motor on the Dyson makes it easier to push and to navigate around obstacles, according to MyRealityTech. The motor location also gives the vacuum cleaner a lower center of gravity, which keeps it from falling over as easily as standard vacuum cleaners. The ball is made of durable polypropylene. MyRealityTech indicates that the only major downside to the Dyson Ball vacuums is the price tag.

    DC24 Models

    • The DC24 includes the All Floors and Animal models. The All Floors models are designed to work on any types of flooring, including rugs, carpet and bare floors. The Animal models come with attachments for pet hair, including the mini turbine head. Both models feature the combination accessory tool kit and a motorized brush bar. They have a 20 ft. cord. The bin can hold up to 0.19 gallons of dirt. Both have a HEPA filter, but the filter on the All Floors is a lifetime washable filter. The filter on the Animal is a standard washable filter. Both of these models are relatively lightweight at 11.65 lbs. The dimensions of these models are 29.6 inches high by 11 inches wide by 13.7 inches deep. These vacuums have a 28.72 ft reach.

    DC25 Models

    • The DC25 models also include the Animal and All Floors models. Both models come with the stair tool and combination accessory tool kit, and the Animal has the mini turbine head. They feature the fingertip brush control, which allows you to turn off the brush bar from the handle. The bin can hold up to 0.31 gallons of dirt. Both have a lifetime washable HEPA filter, and they have a 24.6 ft. cord. The vacuums weigh 16.12 lbs., and their dimensions are 42.4 inches high by 12.2 inches wide by 15.4 inches deep. They have a 40.3 ft. reach.
