“A motorized cleaner head combines anti-static carbon fiber filaments and stiff nylon brushes to tackle dust and dirt on any surface…” – Dyson Cordless Animal Vacuum from Best Buy… I’m sorry ladies, but that’s my type of sweet talk :) I know that I talk a lot about how crazy-busy I am, and how my house isn’t always as clean as I’d like. But, I have always kind of loved cleaning. No…. Not that I always love the process. Given the choice, I’d of course prefer a day by the pool, relaxing in the sun with a margarita. But since real life doesn’t work that way, and I have a serious case of OCD, I’m a cleaning junkie. And I must admit – I love the end result. Much like a carpenter probably doesn’t totally love swinging a hammer, but is a sucker for a brand new cabinet that he’s built by hand – well, I love seeing how a well thought out to-do list that’s all crossed off can make a house a real home again :) Which is why Dyson is one of my all-time favorite brands. And it’s why I want to tell you a little story about an adventure in Dyson-land, because you need this amazing gadget in your life too…. {and the magic of the finger-clicking is coming soon, promise.}
What does the Dyson Cordless Animal Vacuum DO that makes it so great?
Well – it sucks. Not in a bad way though. Not like, “I brought you home last night on a whim, and now I regret it..” No, like, it sucks all of the yucky stuff out of your life. Maybe not your whole life – but the life that needs to be sucked away – Dirt in the carpet, in the crevices of your tile floor, on your wood or laminate floors, your ceilings, drapes, carpets, rugs, bedding, cabinets, and more. How? Because it’s a 3-in-one gadget that can clean anything and everything with just a flick of a finger… And isn’t that what we’ve all been waiting for since we were little girls watching Bewitched? It’s a totally cordless vacuum that can mount onto the wall, plugs in and gets over 20 minutes of action between charges, and with the flip of a switch transforms between a traditional vacuum with all of the awesome Dyson Animal vac capabilities – to a stick vacuum to get cobwebs or floors, and even a hand vac for furniture or small messes around the house. Everything a woman wants…
Dyson DC44 Animal Slim Bagless Handheld Stick Vacuum Video Review
I had wanted to film a video for this myself, but with all of the remodeling we’re doing this week, I don’t have many clean spots to even take a photo – let alone a video! So, I’m sharing a video from one of my favorite Best Buy Bloggers – this is from Crystal at Surviving a Teacher’s Salary. {Follow her – she has beautiful photos and kind of rocks all the time :) And see her review of this vacuum too – Dyson DC44 Animal Slim Bagless Handheld Stick Vacuum Review.} It gives you a WAY better idea of what the vacuum is like versus just seeing photos. This baby rocks!
“Delivers a fade-free 20 minute run time, no loss of suction” – Dyson, Best Buy
Ahhhhh….. That’s another line that is just music to my mommy-ears. So by now you’re like – “Ok Meagan, you’ve totally talked this guy up. But is he just a pretty face? Does he have any substance to back it up or what?” Yes ladies, I know how sceptical we all are of new men, er, I mean household gadgets and appliances. You know, they make big promises… “I’ll be here for you long term, I’m super dependable, I’ll look and perform exactly like I do today for the next 20 years….” But we all know those lofty claims from pretty faces aren’t always true. But, Dyson delivers, ladies. Let me count the ways…
- I can’t get enough of his flexibility: This bad boy has such sweet moves… Swivelling this way and that, laying flat to get into tight spaces, sweeping through tight hallways, under furniture, and around fixtures. You’ll be dancing while you vacuum, guarantee.
- He can be anything you want: From a full vacuum, to a stick vacuum, to a portable hand vac – you’ve got it all in one compact gadget.
- He’s easy: When you have a smaller mess, just grab him and go – he’s all charged and ready to rev his motor at the touch of your finger on his trigger! Just push his buttons, and let him clean up any problem spots around the house easy peasy, without the fuss of a bunch of cords and plug ins and hauling things around. Quickie cleaning that packs a punch!
- No strings attached: He’s cordless! Meaning he can roam where you want to. {B-52’s reference, anyone? Or am I just old?} But seriously – you just mount him on his holder, he’s charged when you’re ready, and you take him anywhere through the house in a jiffy for a quick fix of cleaning.

And if you have any questions at all about this rockin’ 3-in-one vacuum and how it’s changed my life – ask questions on my Facebook page! I’ll be sharing more of my own videos of this bad boy soon, because I’m so in love. But I’d love to give you any info you need before then. Because I love you guys. :)
Ah this vacuum looks fantastic – I’m loving that it’s a cordless too. We have an indoor dog and cat that shed like crazy – this vacuum would get a lot of use in my house.
I love how flat it gets! It would be so nice to get under furniture instead of having to rearrange each time like I currently have to.
I love my DC44 but wish I didn’t have to hold it on, and wish the battery lasted longer ;) But, other than that.. it rocks!!
Well I’m sold! I’m all for anything that makes cleaning the house easier and quicker!
This looks like a must have, we already love our Dyson but want a quick option too….showing this to hubs!
hi meagan,
thanks for share your review.
Just one more question. Do you how long it takes to recharge?
