Dyson DC18 Slim All-Floors Cyclone Upright Vacuum Cleaner: “The Dyson DC18 Slim All-Floors Cyclone Upright Vacuum Cleaner container does fill up after 2 rooms. Yet, the biggest drawback that I experienced is that it feels heavy to push. You can’t set the height and the wheels in the brush head are very small and low to the ground. Thus, the vacuum brush head must produces a lot of drag/friction on the carpet surface. Th result is that on average height carpet, I had to put a lot of effort to push and pull the vacuum. My 2 older vacuums are much easier on my back and muscles to push despite being 3-5 lbs heavier. Another issue to be aware is that the brush head housing is made of thin lightweight plastic that is easy to damage. During my first use I accidentally got too close to the blind cord and the little plastic pull cord stopper was sucked up. It was easy to remove but that small plastic part put a major cut/dent in the bottom of the brush plate/cover. Overall, the Dyson DC18 Slim All-Floors Cyclone Upright Vacuum Cleaner cleans very well as per the other reviews.”
