Manufacturer's Description
The Ball works very differently from traditional uprights, by replacing conventional wheels with a ball. Because the ball can tilt and pivot (unlike conventional wheels), a simple turn of the wrist allows you to steer through a wide arc, making it easy to manoeuvre around furniture and obstacles. The motor is mounted inside the ball, which keeps the centre of gravity low and the machine light in your hand so it's easy to steer. The rubber tyres on the ball prevent slipping and protect hard floors.

Glides into awkward spaces The cleaner head is attached to the main vacuum by a single pivot point, so it maintains contact with the floor even when turning a corner. The low profile cleaner head glides into awkward spaces that are usually missed, like under cabinets and beds.

Large Debris Pick-up The wide channel on the front of the cleaner head ensures large debris such as nuts and rice are picked up first time, and not 'snowploughed' like other uprights.

Root Cyclone technology A Dyson cyclone spins air at high speed. Dirt and dust are thrown out of the airflow and collected in the bin, not on filters or in bags. So unlike other vacuums, Dyson doesn't clog and lose suction, so it picks up more dirt.

Other Features
HEPA + Bactisafe: Dyson Root12Cyclone captures microscopic particles, whilst the HEPA filter with Bactisafe screen traps and kills bacteria and mould on contact.

Telescope Reach: No awkward parts to assemble for high-reach cleaning. Extendable hose reaches the top of the stairs.

Approved for Allergy Sufferers: Approved for allergy sufferers by the British Allergy Foundation.

Clear Bin: This has 4 clear advantages: (1) You can see how well the Dyson works; (2) There are no bags to buy; (3) You can always tell when it's full; and (4) It is easy to empty.

Hygienic bin emptying: A button on the top of the bin releases a `trapdoor' in the base, so you can empty the bin quickly and hygienically, with no need to touch the dirt.

Brush Control: Turn brushbar off at the touch of a button to protect delicate rugs and hard floors.

Motorised brushbar: DC15 has a direct drive motorised brushbar. This improves pick-up on carpets by sweeping the dust and fibres trapped in the carpet pile into the constant Dyson airflow, without the need for belts.

Customer Reviews

Design Excellence
I just love all the design features on this vacuum. It does a brillant job easily and quickly. I have upgraded from a DC04 and the DC15 has much more suction and really grooms my fluffier carpets brilliantly. It gets even closer to the skirting boards and is really easy to empty. The ball is great for maneouvrability, it really allows you to get around furniture, toys and kids. This is a really well designed bit of kit which is a joy to use.

The business
This is a great machine, very manouvorable. It does take a couple of goes to get used to twisting your wrist to get it to turn round corners. It feels a bit heavy to start with till you get used to it. Definetly no good for anyone with athiritis in the wrists, but no machine is ever right for everyone.
