Had my Dyson 2 weeks ago and loving it. Its the first hand held vacuum cleaner I've had, as always thought they wouldn't be as good as a corded cleaner - how wrong I was.  I did a test and used my corded first then went over the floor with the Dyson and couldn't believe how much fluff the Dyson had collected. I'm so pleased and having a 2 year guarantee is also very reassuring.
